### 3/5 — Love, but some problems

*2024-07-21*

This app is super fun while on vacation or in your city. I love doing this with my family, but recently i opened the app and every single trip was gone. These were memories to me and my family and we loved looking back at them. Now we can't because they aren't there. We had many trips on it and the app is empty, almost as if it reset all progress. We were doing it in our city and now we have to start over which none of us wanted to do. Other than this, the app was fun.

**Developer response:** I am so sorry for that. I experienced the same. Due to what the app is written in now versus the previous code,I was unable to port the history over.  I plan to make sure this doesn’t happen again.
