Go [Verb] Yourself3.1 - App Store

version 3.1

Version History • The AI got weirder. When Apple Intelligence fills in your blanks, it now reaches for the absurd instead of the merely sensible. We read a lot of stories to pick this setting and we regret nothing.

• Illustrating a story keeps you posted. The creating panel now stays up for the whole wait instead of disappearing partway through and leaving you to guess.

• Sharing no longer hangs around forever on a bad connection, and it will never share a picture that failed to upload.

• On iOS 27, illustrating a story opens Image Playground with your story already loaded, so you can steer the picture instead of taking what you are given.

Thanks for reading, and our apologies for whatever the AI just said about [family member]. 3.1 Sep 11 • Lots of new color themes.
• A new bundle: get both story packs together for less.
• Already own one pack? You can grab the other at a thank-you price, a smaller bill for our existing readers.
• Each story illustration now wears a small "Crafted by AI" tag at the bottom, because we wanted to make sure no one mistakes your iPhone's work for [a real Renaissance master].

Thanks for sticking with us. 3.0 May 6 A new Story Pack is available from comedy writer Brandon Burkhart (The Onion, McSweeney's.)

Possibly less annoying ads. Or more annoying. One can never tell. 2.0.4 05/07/2018 • iOS 11 and new iPhone compatibility.

• You can also press the "Done" button without clicking away from the last field now. 2.0.3 09/20/2017 There were just one or two bugs left, hiding under an [object]. They're now in the Bug Relocation Program, living in [city]. 2.0.2 07/04/2017 • Oops! There was a bug that could cause a crash on iPads. We stepped on it with our size [number] shoe.

...And from 2.0:

...and from our version last week...

• Logging in with Facebook was really, really not working. We hit the code with an [object] and that seems to have fixed it.
• Some other things, like sharing and notifications, were broken due to Apple's [adjective] changes in iOS 9. We have now brought the app into the 21st century.
• Speaking of which, there was a story template called "The Day I Met Justin Bieber." This has been changed to "The Day I Met Taylor Swift."
• Thank you for playing! Look for an [adjective] new version for your iPhone, iPod, Apple Watch, iPad, and Apple TV in the not too distant future. 1.0.9 12/13/2015 • Logging in with Facebook was really, really not working. We hit the code with an [object] and that seems to have fixed it.

Look for an [adjective] new version for your iPhone, iPod, Apple Watch, iPad, and Apple TV in the not too distant future. 1.0.8 12/05/2015 We forgot to turn on a very [adjective] feature: If you buy a Story Pack, ads will no longer appear in the app. We're very sorry and have repeatedly [verbed] ourselves with an [object] as penance. 1.0.7 12/05/2013 Small fixes for iOS 7. Nothing drastic. We didn't turn the notebook into… not a notebook. 1.0.6 09/19/2013 • Oops! Fixed a bug that could cause the app to crash if you're in Airplane Mode. The app would crash. Not the airplane. Don't worry about the airplane. You're fine. Forget we even mentioned it. 1.0.5 02/12/2013 • Bug fixes for multiplayer stories 1.0.4 02/07/2013 • We now use iOS 6's built-in Facebook integration. You may see an alert about setting this up if you haven't already. (You can always opt out, but it will a) make it harder to play with friends, 2) make it harder to share, and III) somehow worsen global warming.)
• You can now share stories via Twitter, Facebook, text message, email, or copy a link to the pasteboard.
• The Multiplayer view is now easier to understand.
• New tutorial video featuring Og the Gorilla! 1.0.3 12/06/2012 • Fixed a serious bug that could have happened when logging in via Facebook.
(...and from the previous version...)
• Looks good on the iPhone 5 and iPad mini.
• iOS 6 Facebook integration.
