User reviews

Where did my pets go?

The only trouble I had was when I first started playing the game it would delete all my pets. But otherwise I absolutely love the app, especially since I can create my cat who died.

Response from developer

Hey - first off, I'm really sorry your pets disappeared when you first started. That's about the worst thing that can happen in a pet app, and it was a bug on my end, not anything you did. I hunted it down (a sync issue that could overwrite freshly-made pets on the first launch) and it's fixed in the next update - they'll stay put for good now. And the bit about recreating your cat who passed - that genuinely got me. That's the exact reason I built Boko. Thank you for giving it a chance even after the rough start. 💛

I love this app

Love this app I love how accessible it is to the blind Visually, impaired clear button, labels and clear labels for screen reader users to read, I love the fact that notifications escalate based on your cats needs The only thing I would suggest you don’t do is for the scheduled morning and evening rituals I would recommend you not allow a feature to where you can change the wake and bedtime that way like because if you do, I will constantly be trying to find good times and I want them at the same times they are now and I don’t want those settings to be changed
