Need a hand with a tiny computer?
Start with the quick answers below. If something still feels stuck, send us a note and tell us which computer you were using.
Email supportHow do I start a computer?
Choose a computer from the collection on the outer screen, then bend your iPhone Duo into the tabletop shape. The top half becomes its display and the lower half becomes its keyboard or controls.
Which computers are included?
All ten computers are ready to play: Macintosh, Commodore 64, IBM PC, Amiga 500, Windows 95, ThinkPad, iMac G3, iBook G3, PowerBook G4 and Windows XP.
Do my drawings and documents stay saved?
The miniature desktops save supported work on your device. Closing a window should leave its saved documents available when you return. If something did not save as expected, tell us the computer, app and steps you took.
Does the tiny browser use the internet?
No. The browser inside a miniature computer visits fictional, locally simulated pages. Historical source links in the collection are separate real websites and open only when you choose them.
What if I hear no sound or feel no key feedback?
Open Settings from the collection and check sound effects, ambience and keyboard haptics. Your phone's volume and system settings also affect playback and feedback.
How do purchases work?
The playable collection is planned as one purchase, without a subscription. The App Store listing will show the final price and purchase method when Tiny Computers is released. If a restore option appears in the app, use it with the Apple Account that made the purchase.
Still need help?
Email tinycomputers@fountaininteractive.com. Please include your iPhone and iOS version, the computer you chose, and what you expected to happen. A screenshot can help, but avoid sending private information you do not want to share.
