That or just being able to have a little joystick to custom move it around. ### 4/5 — I love the tail and the app BUT… *2024-01-03* The app looks nothing like the pictures do and there aren’t as many moves as I hoped. I look forward to app and tail improvements but I wish that they were better. Please respond to this, Creator(s). ### 4/5 — Amazing app but.. *2023-06-29* I love this app, works great. Just 2 things I wish you could change. Instead of the casual mode being set to certain parts of the move list, I wish you could make a list for it to go through. And on casual mode why is 15 seconds the minimum time while on the move list you can do another move right after the other? Why not make it like 5 seconds (but of course make it have breaks or tell the user to give it “rests” so it doesn’t break) I don’t know how all of that works but if that was in the app that would be awesome ### 2/5 — Expected more *2023-06-16* Paid close to 300$ for a tail, walking mode doesn't work at all, and the app is completely different compared to the screen shots ### 2/5 — Major issue. *2023-04-14* My problem is I seem to be using the older app not to mention it won’t let me do stuff on loop so I am concerned. ### 3/5 — Not a bad app *2022-03-30, version 5.7* The app works well enough. But it keeps crashing and I need to re-connect. Also some of the functions don’t make sense or are a bit confusing to set up. Otherwise works well enough. Looking forward to how the app progresses ### 2/5 — I REALLY really love the idea *2021-09-21, version 5.2* But there are issues. I have an older iPhone (6SE or whatever it's called) though so that might be why. - Walk mode and movelists don't work. I'll set it up and start it, then it proceeds to do only one move and stop. - Not sure if it was always like this or if it's a glitch or something, but some of the names of the moves are incorrect and were swapped around. - Also not sure if this was intentional or not but it seems my MiTail likes to lean to one side when doing certain moves? - Not a criticism but a suggestion: I think it would be nice to have an option to both rename the default moves and to rename our tai! ### 3/5 — The app needs some fixes so do the tail *2021-01-15, version 2.9* The app couldn’t connect to the tail and the remote barley works and when it does the tail is really loud ## Frequently asked questions about CRUMPET ### What Tail Company gear does CRUMPET control?
