## What is Here Kitty!?

Kitty is shy and wants to hide in your home.

You can help by placing your phone facedown in a secret hiding spot somewhere in your home.

After you do, your family or friends can try to find it by calling out. Kitty will meow back. But not every time because Kitty is shy.

Take turns hiding and finding Kitty and have fun together at home!

P.S. Kitty's friends will be joining the fun each upcoming Saturday. Nala is coming next!

### 5/5 — Искренняя благодарность

*2026-03-30*

Два ребенка играли в эту волшебную игру. Она дала такие ценные минуты контакта родителя и ребенка в те моменты, когда у родителя нет сил на активные игры. Всем родителям малышей рекомендую это волшебную игру. 

Спасибо, уважаемые создатели!

### 4/5 — Great app, can’t unlock Pup Pup

*2023-03-14*

My six year old loves looking for Kitty and Pipsqueak, is looking forward to unlocking Diva, and fears Smokey. We adults think it’s a pretty cute app too. Unfortunately, now that the app is nearly three years old, I haven’t been able to unlock the dog character. I submitted my email twice and tried emailing the address mentioned in other reviews, but no luck yet.

### 2/5 — Microphone autorisation doesn’t work

It had my sis close her eyes and I put it under the mat٫ It told her   
 It was done then she called "Kitty!" no answer٫ then she clapped٫ no answer٫ it would be fun if it meowed.
                               Can you please fix that?

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3 — 2020-05-31

Introducing… the smoke detector that’s low on batteries. It makes a quick beep every once in a while and it’s infuriatingly hard to find. Unlock it by playing a round with your phone at 20% or less battery.

### 1.2 — 2020-05-21

Introducing Snowball, a very chonky cat who snores and naps while hiding, exclusive to the iPad’s much larger screen. That’s right, you can play on iPad now too! Try hiding multiple devices at once if you have them for a fun challenge.

This update also switches things up from new character each Saturday -> to characters you can unlock to play with a more achievements-like system. (And adds Pipsqueak who unlocks by playing a round lasting longer than 5 minutes.)

Thanks for playing with Kitty!

### 1.03 — 2020-05-08

Bug fixes! And the pages for Pup Pup and Nala will be immediately visible on first run. Thank you everyone who's played so far!

### 1.0 — 2020-05-01
