Yonder
Yonder rides shotgun and narrates: the mountain you just passed, the ghost town two exits down. It pulls from Wikipedia, OpenStreetMap, and GeoNames, and it talks.

The short version.
Studio questions first, then each app.
Rival Bear
How do I get support?
Email hello@rivalbear.com with the app name and what happened.
Where do the apps live?
Yonder lives at getyonder.app. Twiggybank lives at twiggybank.com. Balance Point is still in development and has no site of its own yet. Rivalbear.com is the studio site for all three.
Is there a newsletter?
Rarely, and that is the point. The form on the home page sends mail only when something new is out.
Yonder
What is Yonder?
A GPS tour guide. It tells you what is interesting about the places you drive through, while you are driving through them.
What can I ask?
What you can see: a mountain, a landmark, a weird roadside thing. Also local history and why a place matters.
Does Yonder replace navigation?
No. Yonder is for the stories. Use a navigation app to get there.
What data does it use?
Your location and heading, plus public place data. That is how it knows the mountain from the rest area.
Twiggybank
Is Twiggybank a real bank?
No. On purpose. It tracks practice money so the habits are learned before the stakes are real.
What can kids do?
See their own balances, request spends, set goals, and watch savings grow from a paired device.
What can adults do?
Everything else: kids, allowance, growth rate, requests, invitations, corrections.
Do kids need email accounts?
No. Parents issue codes from their own account.
Why exact bookkeeping for pretend money?
Because the numbers have to add up, and kids notice when a balance is wrong.
Balance Point
What is Balance Point?
A weight app for iPhone. Log when you can; it looks past the noise and estimates when you will reach your goal.
What is wrong with a single goal date?
It pretends your body follows a schedule. You get a range you can plan around, and no date at all when the data is too thin.
Does it need an account?
No. Nothing to sign up for. Sync is optional and runs through your own iCloud, and export hands you the whole history as one file.
Is it a calorie counter?
Not yet. Weight and body metrics come first. Nutrition and training are planned, in that order.
When can I try it?
TestFlight is the next milestone. The update form on the home page will get you the email.
