+206 is out! This should (hopefully) fix the rest of the issues people were having on Android. I have a pretty serious flu right now, so hopefully I didn't fever dream some more issues into the game, but if I did, post those over #bugs

You can see the full changelogs below.

We also added a few smaller fixes in this patch. For instance, you can now clear the steps graph from the settings if you got some weird step counts there due to the previous issues.

Thanks for everyone's patience. It has been a lot of work to iron out all of the kinks on Android, but hopefully we're almost there now.

If you still don't get steps counted in the background, try the following troubleshooting measures:

Step counting troubleshooting guide for Android

• Check that you've given WalkScape permissions to run in the background.
• Try enabling notifications. WalkScape doesn't send out any notifications unless you opt-in other than the mandatory notification for background process. You can disable that from notification channels, its name has (disable this).
• Try uninstalling and reinstalling WalkScape.
• Try restarting your device.
• Try unrestricted battery optimization.

Settings and problems with this depend on your manufacturer and Android version.

If you've had a problem but found a solution, please post it as a comment to this post so we can take notes on what works.

I'll need to rest now a bit to get rid of this flu, but I'll try to post the devblog as usual on Thursday.

Happy walking everyone ❤️
