General Rules:  

Selfies and photos of PEOPLE are not good Snaplings. Your FEET are not good Snaplings. INSIDE YOUR HOUSE are not good Snaplings. If other players can't find your Snapling in that EXACT place in two weeks, two months or even two years, its probably not a good Snapling.

Some responses based on reviews:

** Snapling is regulated, all photos are reviewed fairly regularly, and any images that we deem as inappropriate are deleted.

** If you wish to turn off checking for nearby Snaplings while your app is in the background, you can do that by going to "Settings" and turning "Background" to "Off"

** You can contact the developer through multiple channels in the "Feedback" section of the App, please contact me with any questions or comments you have, 

** Other users can NOT monitor your location by looking at your profile, they can only view the locations of where you have planted Snaplings and see THEIR current location

I'm just one guy, and this app is FREE for you (and costs me $ to maintain), if you have issues, complaints or questions, PLEASE don't hesitate to contact me!

Thanks for downloading, and have fun!

### 5/5 — Another awesome interactive game

*2017-06-15, version 1.2*

If you're into Pokemon Go, Garfield Go, Flagstack and Munzee then this should appeal to you. Player base is a little stunted but if given a chance to grow, this could get up there. Virtual in nature, this game has the potential to take you to interesting places. 

Worth a look at ...

*2015-04-07*

I really like this app and think it will be more fun as more people discover it. Just remember to stay where you are after taking a photo to plant it. I have discovered some of my plant locations were way off when I started to walk somewhere else while it was being planted.
