Support

Sometimes things don't go to plan. When that happens our team is here to help!

We know that sometimes things don't go to plan, and the app doesn't work as expected. We value your feedback and enjoy every opportunity to talk to our customers.

First released in 2014, Strokes Per Minute started as a passion project that I never expected in my wildest dream would have the tens of thousands of users around the world that it does today. What started as a project to scratch my own itch, and to learn how to build an application for iPhone, is today available on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, with layouts that adapt to iPhone Duo.

As much as we possibly can we aim to update Strokes Per Minute to leverage the latest features of Apple’s operating systems and keep the applications free from crashes. While we do monitor the app for crashes, we don’t know about many issues unless we receive feedback.

Our team is here to help with any issues you have with the app or feature requests. They can be reached at support at strokesperminute.app

Thanks for using Strokes Per Minute!
