Tryst — AI Roleplay Stories
Tryst questions
What is Tryst?
Tryst is interactive short fiction powered by AI. Stories are written by humans and the community; character replies are generated in real time as you play through each chapter.
Are my conversations private?
Yes. Your conversations are stored only on your device — we keep no copies on our servers and never use them to train AI models. Recent messages are transmitted securely to generate each reply, then discarded. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Do I need an account?
Not for playing — browsing and playing stories are anonymous. Sign in with Apple is required only to create stories or to like, save, report, and block.
How do I manage or cancel my subscription?
Subscriptions are billed by Apple. Open Settings → your name → Subscriptions on your iPhone, or App Store → your profile → Subscriptions. To re-activate membership on a new device, tap "Restore purchases" on the membership screen.
How do I change the story language?
Go to the Me tab → Story language. Five languages are built in (English, 中文, 日本語, Español, Português), and "Other language" lets you type a phrase in any language — the app detects it and characters will reply in that language.
How do I delete my account?
Me tab → scroll to the bottom → Delete account. This permanently removes your profile, likes, saves, and every story you've published, including images. Conversations live only on your device, so deleting the app removes those.
The app crashed or a story won't load.
Check that you're online and running iOS 17.0 or later, then try closing and reopening the story. If the problem persists, email parsons0503@gmail.com with your device model, iOS version, and a short description.
Insider China
Insider China questions
How does the app work?
Insider China sends the search query you type to a third-party API (Coze, operated by ByteDance at api.coze.cn), which returns public posts from Chinese social media platforms (Douyin and Xiaohongshu). Results are translated on-device using Apple's Translation framework and displayed in a clean reading interface.
Does the app require an account?
No. Insider China does not require registration, login, or any personal information.
Is this a VPN?
No. Insider China is not a VPN, proxy, or tunneling app. It is a standard search client that makes HTTPS requests to a public API endpoint.
Why was I prompted to download a translation language pack?
The app uses Apple's built-in Translation framework, which downloads a Chinese-to-target-language pack on first use. This happens once per language. All translation is performed on-device after the pack is installed.
How do I change the translation language?
On the home screen, tap the language code in the top-right corner (e.g. EN) to choose between English, 日本語, 한국어, Español, Français, Deutsch, Italiano, Português, Русский, and العربية.
Where is my search history stored?
All search history is stored locally on your device in the app's Documents directory. It never leaves your device. You can clear history at any time from the Library screen.
How do I delete all app data?
Delete the app from your device. All locally stored history and cached results will be removed.
Is my search query shared with anyone?
Your search query is sent only to the Coze API to retrieve results. We do not log, store, sell, or share this data. ByteDance's API handling is described in their privacy policy: coze.cn/privacy.
The app won't connect or searches are failing.
Confirm your device has an active internet connection and is running iOS 18.0 or later. If you are on a corporate or restrictive network, api.coze.cn may be blocked — try a different network. If problems persist, email parsons0503@gmail.com.
The app crashed or showed an error.
Email parsons0503@gmail.com with your device model, iOS version, a short description of what you were doing, and a screenshot if possible.
PawDose
PawDose questions
What is PawDose?
PawDose is a medication tracker for chronically ill pets. It schedules dose reminders, lets the whole household log doses from the Lock Screen with one tap, and prevents accidental double-dosing when multiple people share the same pet.
Do I need an account?
No. PawDose runs without registration, login, or any external server. All your pet and medication data lives on your device and in your private iCloud — we never see it.
How does household sharing work?
Free users can use PawDose fully for one pet on their own device. PawDose Pro unlocks household sharing: you generate a one-time invite link or QR code, the other person taps the link or scans the code on their iPhone, and the pet's medications, schedules, and dose log sync between you in real time through Apple's CloudKit shared zone. You can stop sharing or remove a participant from the pet's detail screen at any time.
What does "double-dose prevention" mean?
Within a slot's grace window, if a household member has already logged a dose, the second person sees a confirmation asking whether they want to log another. The dose log is shared in real time so both phones agree on what was given and when.
How do I log a dose from the Lock Screen?
When a scheduled dose is due, PawDose shows a Live Activity with a "Mark given" button on your Lock Screen. Tap it — the dose is logged with the correct slot attribution, no app launch required.
How do I manage or cancel PawDose Pro?
PawDose Pro is sold either as a yearly auto-renewable subscription or as a one-time lifetime purchase, both billed by Apple. To manage or cancel, open Settings → your name → Subscriptions on your iPhone, or App Store → your profile → Subscriptions. To re-activate Pro on a new device, tap "Restore purchases" on the paywall.
Reminders aren't firing — what should I check?
Make sure notifications are allowed in Settings → Notifications → PawDose, that Focus or Do Not Disturb isn't suppressing the app, and that you've enabled Live Activities. PawDose schedules reminders locally on your device, so iOS notification settings fully control delivery.
How do I delete all my pet data?
Delete the pet from the Pets tab to clear it (including its medications and dose log) from every device using your iCloud. To remove all PawDose data on a device, delete the app. To wipe the iCloud copy, go to Settings → your name → iCloud → Manage Account Storage and remove PawDose's storage.
The app crashed or sync isn't working.
Check that you're online and signed into iCloud, that you're running iOS 17.0 or later, and that household participants have accepted the invite. If problems persist, email parsons0503@gmail.com with your device model, iOS version, and a short description.
