## What is PathBloom?

Your world starts gray. Every walk makes it bloom.

PathBloom turns everyday walks into real-world exploration. The map around you is dormant and colorless — walk somewhere new and it blooms: streets flush with color and tiny voxel flowers sprout along the exact path you traveled.

Nothing you can buy ever touches your progress. Not your XP, not your streak, not your rank. Everything that matters is free, and every cosmetic can be earned by walking.

EXPLORE, DON'T JUST EXERCISE
• A fresh expedition every day: PathBloom designs a walking loop through the most unexplored streets near you, past parks, plazas, viewpoints, and local spots you've never visited.
• Discover real places: every park, mural, and corner cafe you pass gets collected — common finds to legendary landmarks.
• Rewards novelty, never distance: XP comes from new ground and new places, so a curious wander beats a treadmill grind every time.

WATCH A YEAR OF WALKING IN SIX SECONDS
Your bloom map remembers everything. Open the atlas, drag the slider, and watch every street you have ever walked fill in from your first day to today — a time-lapse of your own two feet.

MAKE IT YOURS
• Build your voxel explorer and watch them grow from Curious Sprout to legend, level by level.
• Earn badges, souvenirs, and daily quest chests.
• Keep a streak alive by discovering — and bank Streak Freezes for rest days.
• Dress your trail in seasonal themes, stand voxel keepsakes on your home stage, and frame your walks with share cards.

CLIMB THE RANKS
• Weekly and all-time leaderboards for your city and the world — ranked by places explored, not miles walked.
• Opt out anytime with one switch.

YOUR MAP STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
Your GPS traces and routes never leave your device. Leaderboards only ever see your nickname, avatar, city, and score.

FREE TO PLAY, HONEST FOREVER
Cosmetic trail themes and keepsakes can be bought or earned by walking, and a one-time Supporter Pack removes interstitial ads forever. That is the whole of it.

The world outside your door is bigger than you think. Go bloom it.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.2.1 — 2026-08-27

Two fixes:

• Updating from an earlier version could leave a second, frozen copy of you on the leaderboard. Everyone now has one place on the board, and the duplicates have been cleared.
• A permission request that could be missed after your first walk is now offered again next time, instead of being skipped for good.

### 1.2 — 2026-08-25

Fixes and polish throughout:

• Sound no longer stops for good after a phone call or another app takes over the audio.
• Setup can no longer be skipped past the "welcome back" iCloud offer, so a returning explorer's world is never started over accidentally.
• A mystery spot you reveal now always makes it into today's routes.
• Fixed a rare case where the same cosmetic could be paid for twice—once in petals, once with money.
• Quicker route planning in neighborhoods you have already explored.

### 1.1 — 2026-08-11

Your world, played back
The Bloom Atlas can now travel through time. Drag the scrubber, or press play, and watch every street you have ever walked fill in from your first day to today.

A camp of your own
Four voxel keepsakes now stand on your home stage: a cartographer's coat, a firefly lantern, a trailblazer's pack and a sakura scarf. The lantern wakes up after dark.

Petals come a little faster
Your first discovery of each day is worth a bonus, and one cosmetic is featured every week at a lower petal price. Everything in the Boutique can still be earned by walking — nothing here has ever touched your progress, and nothing ever will.

The first bloom of a walk
The map now holds for a moment on the first patch of ground you bloom, then hands itself back and keeps following you.

Also in this update
• The Collection says how many places are still hidden near you, and how far the closest one is on foot
• Places group by neighbourhood instead of by city
• Routes retry when map directions are busy, and say so plainly when a route could not be found
• You can change your display name
• Your leaderboard place now survives a reinstall or a new phone
• Distance no longer counts toward your leaderboard score — exploring new ground does
• Clearer layout and better support for larger text throughout

### 1.0 — 2026-07-31
