### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-04-05*

Simple and fun app that makes walking fun

**Developer response:** So glad it's working now — and thank you for updating your review! Happy walking. 🚶

### 3/5 — App crashes

*2026-03-25*

App crashes immediately when I press start. I’ve been wanting to play this but it keeps on crashing. I will change my review when it is fixed

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear this — a crash on Start is definitely not okay and I want to get it fixed.
Could you share a bit more: your iOS version, and whether this happens every time or only sometimes? 
If you're able to send a crash report through Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements → Analytics Data, that would help a lot. 

You can reach me directly at https://daybound-tower.tknzk.app/contact.html

Thank you for reporting it.
