I will look into that, thx!

That is a good point. If the app gains traction with time then maybe just Tik! with the ! would be enough..

That is actually what I was going to name the app originally, since the app relies so much on Haptics - Its definably a great idea and not off the table! Actually could work really well!

Thats a nice idea too! Yes the Morse code with haptics idea can lead to tons of cool stuff!

Using volume buttons could be neat, something to keep in mind! Thx

Searched it up, looks really cool!

Thank you so much, I'm glad you like the idea!

If I ever release Tik! on android in the future I will reply back on ur comment again here ;)

This is a super near idea! Thx for sharing :)

I also really agree that Haptics can be used in super unique ways for people with disabilities like blindness, since you are not dependent on visuals. Even for Tik! I tired to add some accessibility labels and support, but the possibilities are truly endless!

Ya thats why I typically am used to using 2, but I think the correct amount is 3 :)

Will check it out, thx!

Thank you so much for buying the app! I am glad to know that you like it :)

Also thank you so so much for the in depth feedback! I get what you mean about the game being pretty hard starting out - I was trying to balance between too hard and too easy but it seems I landed a little bit on the harder side - which is something I can fix!

Your ideas about adding a constant interval to the start, holding the white dot to return to the menu (love this one!), and seeing progress without closing the app are great! I will definitely take everything you said into account for future updates!

The timing of the Tiks is intentionally off to make the game a bit harder and add variety. I think the main thing that impacts how hard it is should be the tolerance of how close ur taps have to be to the Tiks, which is something. I can change to make easier, at least till the user gets around 40-50 correct or something.

I love the Tik of the day mode idea and is something I had written too to implement later on. Seriously all your feedback is amazing, thanks so much!! :)

Sorry to hear your on android, hopefully can expand the app to android in the future!

Thank you for pointing that out! I guess I should have checked for typos and will fix that soon!

Sure! Hope you enjoy! Promo: 3HH99JJEJRJF

Thank you so much! :)

Thank you so much for bringing up these points, and for your purchase!!

I tried to make the copy a little intentionally attention grabbing; The idea isn't honestly to be completely present in what is in front of you and on the app, but to use the app as a distraction since it takes your mind off of something in front of you (which is why I used the word immersive)

I am super happy to know that you love the app. If there is anything specific about my copy and marketing though that you think I could change to present it better please let me know.

Thanks!

That would probably solve the issue of the search! Hopefully does not get confused with TikTok lol :) - nice idea though - will see; thanks!

That is a great point, using the app actually reminds me a lot of a fidget toy sometimes! This just keeps your mind a little more active!

Thats a really good point, going to have to do something about that.. If someone writes "Tik! haptic game" or something it comes up, but that is understandably too much to ask from most users.

I will try and think of a way to fix this. If you have any ideas please do let me know! Thanks for this comment!

I agree. I don't want people to pay to test though, since the app is already on the App Store and ready to be sold. If someone still wants the promo code though I am happy to provide it here :)

I appreciate the sentiment honestly. I am a student and so honestly don't have a ton of money myself, which is why I wanted to give the option to try it for free for those on this thread (for any reason, not just saying if they are a student or low on money). Obviously I really appreciate those who are buying it though :)

Thank you!

From what you are saying, I am assuming you bought the app (if so thank you!). When you first open the app (and every time after you completely close it from the background), there is a "?" at the top right. If you click it, it has a guided tutorial that explains in detail how the game works.

Please let me know if you have any other questions though and I can answer them here. If you are struggling a lot with a specific sequence, just close the app completely and re-launch it and the sequence will change.

I tried to set it at a difficulty that would not be too hard or easy. If it is consistently too hard though please let me know and I will make changes :)

Yes! I have thought of making it in the future! Stay tuned ;)

I get where you, and honestly a lot of the other comments are coming from. I really do, and maybe I am bias cuz I made the app, but I just feel like being intentionally bored is different from being bored when we don't want to be.

For example, I like to take time off with no music or phone and just walk around sometimes and choose to be mindful, but other times I have already had a long day and don't want to be mored more..

Let me know your thoughts too though..

Thank you so so much! I hope you like it! :)

I agree, sometimes doing something "boring" is actually nice. I just like to choose when those times are in the day, not have them all the time.

I also see this as something nice for someone who is already conditioned to be super stimulated. Instead of scrolling instagram for example, this could be nice since at least you don't get the typical level of stimulation and eye strain..

I agree. And I think not letting ourselves get bored is also ok if we are doing it intentionally.

Good question. The way I see it, this is for the times when you don't want to be bored. You can definitely choose to be bored sometimes intentionally, but it should not be forced.

It is also a lot less stimulating than something like social media since it has no sound / screen. :)

Yes! I would love to bring it to Apple Watch too! :)

I was worried about that tbh, but a lot of other games use Haptics too pretty frequently, so I think it would not be an issue. Apple has also not set a restriction for it.

I definitely agree there is a lot of room to explore here! I'm sorry to hear you are on android, I have only made iOS/MacOS apps so far but might bring it to android in the future!

For this first version, I have entered the beat patterns myself. Each beat patten has 5-8 beats, spaced out to be faster / slower / different rhythms with each pattern taking no more than about 2 seconds to play out.

This is just version 1 though, so there is obviously scope for more! :)
