@feladler We are working on iCloud support. There are a few sync edge cases to iron out before it's robust, but it's getting there. 🙂

@antofjack Hey!!! Believe it or not, the app never had a setting for dark mode! It just goes with whatever you set your phone to. Now that you mention it though, it would be a pretty cool feature to be able to switch modes in the app. We will add it to the ToDo list!

[been app @been_app]

@noorthesagi Sure https://t.co/UOKuqyyHgw

[been app @been_app]

@noorthesagi Aha, here’s the thing. That’s not what the map of India looks like in Google Maps when viewed outside of India. The Kashmir area is shown as disputed. In the map data we get from our map data provider, the border is as portrayed in the app, but we could clarify the disputed area.

@Saharawi_ @UN Alright, thanks for the info. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

It was brought to our attention that the app crashes on iOS 17 when an achievement is unlocked. This is due to a haptic effect that for some reason breaks on iOS 17. We have disabled this haptic effect in ”been 3.0.12” and submitted an update to Apple, hopefully available soon.

[been app @been_app]

@insomnia_27 Agreed, this is on our ToDo list. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

@Saharawi_ We will look into it. Disputed territories are always complicated, with multiple sides claiming the territory. We are happy to investigate it further, however. Western Sahara is in the app as a disputed territory, but it may very well be the case that we got the border wrong.

@seb__111 Hi! We are definitely hoping to translate the app at some point not too far into the future. We have limited development resources, but we will get back to you when we get that far. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

@DrStarHeartsong Thanks for your feedback. 🙂 You can get to a continent only view, if you scroll down to ”My Continents”, then tap a continent. We’re striving for a simpler UI, as one always should, but our ambition is not to scale it back to the previous version. Looking for a middle ground. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

@Rate1x Unfortunately we don't have an Android version planned. We just don't have the resources to focus on more than one platform. 🫤

[been app @been_app]

@benjytheguy We can add it to our list of things to consider at least. 🙂 There's a lot of stuff we want to add and improve, and we have very limited development resources, but as long as it's on the list, it could happen at some point.

[been app @been_app]

@lkshdrv Hi, sorry for late response! We are aware, it’s on our ToDo list. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

@MicahBergdale Thanks for the feedback! We have been considering various things like that, but we only have one developer (me), and we work on the app in our spare time, so it's going to take while before we get there. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

@JayPhil22964266 Many people got confused by the number being shown in the list there, since it showed countries + territories, so we removed it in an attempt to receive fewer angry emails. 🙂 We’re thinking about reintroducing it in a way that is less confusing.

[been app @been_app]

Just a brief announcement: We get many, many emails asking about Antarctica right now. Don’t worry, we’re actively working on getting Antarctica back into the app, it’s just taking a little bit of time. Patience is a virtue! All good things come to those who wait. Etc etc. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

@JochemLL @GooglePlay Unfortunately, we had to discontinue the Android app, because we don’t have the resources to do 2 versions of the app.

[been app @been_app]

@Binesy You can currently pinch-to-zoom the map, but we’ll consider making it possible to just tilt the phone again. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

There is currently a new updated version (3.0.4) of the app rolling out on the App Store where a bunch of things have been fixes. Also, we added 100 000 smaller cities and 8000 airports.

[been app @been_app]

@atharv Thanks, we will look into it. 🙂

[been app @been_app]

@MeanderingMax Never too late for feedback. Thanks! 🙂
