My ios too old, not supported anymore and updated without knowing
08/13/2025

After updating, there's a message explaining why the devs chose not to support older ios versions. The gist was because it makes maintenance harder and because of the security issue from users sending Spiral Abyss data on the old version. I respect their decision , but I also wish the app description mentioned this. I've never used the Spiral Abyss feature, and the app was working fine before even though I hadn't updated in years. I wish I hadn't updated because the old version was working fine and the new version disables itself bc my ios is too old. Thanks for all these years. I would rate it a 5 star except...it doesn't work anymore on my phone. I really liked the notification for when dailies are unfinished by a certain time each day. You should definitely try the new version if your phone supports it, it was already great years ago and I'm sure there's even more features now.

[Shiki's Response] Thanks for your comment. iOS 16.2+ can still use widgets, notifications, and watchOS complications. If your OS is older than iOS 16.2 then sorry for the inconveniences.

great app…until it started causing problems

used this app for a week or two and was very happy with it, put it as widget on my lock screen and the bigger version on the home page. but after a while my phone started freezing and restarting every 3-4 hours, some days it wouldnt even make it more than ~40 min without restarting (and just for context my phone is not super old, it’s a 13 pro, about a year old). I installed the app around the same time i updated to ios16, so i thought that maybe that was the problem, but before that i just tried deleting the widgets and check the info manually in the app, but the problem persisted, although it wasn’t as bad. In the end i had to delete the app, and afterwards, i watched my phone for a couple of days to see if it would still freeze and restart. Thankfully, the problem was gone, but the sad part is that i cant use the app (and now have to load the incredibly slow hoyolab app to look at my resin).This is just my situation, as far as i see, for most people this app works fine, so give it a try!! Hopefully it works for you🤞I might try it again in the future to see if the problem is fixed, or if its just my phone.

Well I did not receive the same feedback. And I think it is the bug from iOS. Thanks for your trying this app.

An Absolute Must-Have

This thing is the BEST. It has come so far since I started using it, as well. The UI is smooth and snappy, excellent and logical customization and layout of widgets, incredibly useful information right there. And you can really go deep with your account, with Wish History, beautiful layouts of your character attributes and artifacts for easy-to-share photos. Literally so glad I found this app. It’s just too good and keeps getting better every update.

Amazing Unofficial Genshin Companion App for iOS

Widget functionality is great and the timers will update when you refresh the widgets. This app has a lot of useful features for not only tracking account resin, expeditions, teapot etc. but you can also connect several accounts to the app and monitor all of them. Useful for those who manage several accounts.The app also offers a daily overview of domains and times until reset/full. Extremely helpful once you install the widgets in and even have customization functions to pick a namecard as a background, albeit at a lower quality than an official companion app such as HoYoLAB.Account security is not at risk either. They make you log in through the official HoYoLab just to confirm your ownership to an account so you can’t just randomly add someone else’s account.No issues with the app so far. I highly recommend this app for people keeping track of timers. There is no map or build-list function but they make up for other features such-as event dates and reset timers.

// Major changes introduced in The Pizza Helper v5.6.7: - For a variety of concerns, the option previously labelled “Show characters’ real names instead” has been renamed to **“Show characters’ alternative names instead”**. Clarifying notes were added. The option is turned off by default and will be automatically turned off once after installing this update. (BEWARE: This app may face challenges related to the sustainability of its development and maintenance team. In the worst-case scenario, the app might be removed from the App Store and get re-released under a different team member's name and a new App Bundle ID: This app supports macOS and uses Group Containers, making it unable to meet App Store Connect’s criteria for a developer transfer. This means that if such re-release happens, it won't be able to access data from the original app. You will only be able to use your existing data backups to restore your information in the new app. We strongly recommend that you regularly back up your gacha records and local account data. A final decision may be made by the end of March 2026. Please also note that the new app may be temporarily unavailable for iOS users in mainland China due to the need to re-apply for an ICP record.) $EOF.
