## What is Mooring?

A ring toss beneath the surface.

Remember the little handheld water game with two buttons and a window full of floating rings? Mooring brings it to your iPhone, set on a calm Caribbean reef. Press the water jets, tilt the sea, and guide every ring down onto its post.

It's easy to pick up and hard to put down. There's no rush, no clutter, and nothing to sign up for. It's just you, the water, and a little patience.

HOW IT PLAYS
• Hold the left or right jet to send a column of water up through the chamber. Short taps nudge; long holds lift.
• Tilt your phone and the water tilts with it, in any direction, even upside down. Prefer buttons? Turn tilt off in Settings.
• Rings drift, flip, and tumble like the real toy. They only moor when they come down flat.
• Moor every ring to clear a chamber, then the next one opens.

SIX FREE CHAMBERS
01 First Light: one post and calm water.
02 Twin Posts: two posts, and the rings start to flip.
03 Slack Water: three posts and a par time to chase.
04 Cross Current: a current runs through the middle. Aim upstream.
05 The Tilt: steer the whole sea by turning your phone.
06 Turtle Crossing: a sea turtle swims through and nudges drifting rings.

BEAT PAR FOR A STAR
Every chamber has a par time. Clear it faster to earn a star, and keep track of your best time and fewest jet presses. Par is a goal, never a game over.

FULL TIDE
Full Tide is a single, one-time purchase that unlocks chambers 07 to 12, with new currents, creatures, and challenges, plus twelve more stickers for Messages. It isn't a subscription, and it works with Family Sharing.

STICKERS FOR MESSAGES
Bring the reef into the chat. Mooring includes six free stickers for Messages: a sea turtle, the buoy, a moored post, a blue tang, sea fans, and a "Moored!" badge. Full Tide adds twelve more, including the octopus, the shark, a spotted ray, a hermit crab, a spiny lobster, and a free diver.

THE TIP JAR
If you'd like to support a one-person studio, Settings has an optional tip jar: Bubble, Buoy, and Lighthouse. Tips are a thank-you and don't unlock anything.

CALM BY DESIGN
• No ads, no account, and no tracking.
• Your progress stays on your device.
• Sound, music, haptics, tilt, and Reduce Motion are all yours to set.
• Hand-crafted artwork inspired by the reefs of the Caribbean.

Made by taplabs, a small studio for well-made apps.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-11-07

Mooring 1.1 is made for iPhone Duo.

• Open and upright: Hold iPhone Duo fully open in portrait and the whole reef fills the screen, with your score up top and the jets below.

• Set it down, half-folded: Fold iPhone Duo partway and rest it on a table. The chamber stands up on the top half like the window of the original handheld toy, and everything you touch (the jets, the lean buttons, Restart and Pause) sits on the half resting on the table. Tilt steering switches to the lean buttons while it's seated. Move the hinge and watch the water slosh.

• Book pose: Hold it partly folded like a book and the jets sit right where your thumbs rest at each edge, with menus kept clear of the fold.

• Stand your iPhone Duo up like a tent and see what happens!

Thanks for playing. If you're enjoying Mooring, a rating or review means a lot to a one-person studio.
