What to include in a bug report
The more of this you send, the faster we can find and fix the problem:
- Game version, shown at the bottom of the game’s Settings.
- Device and system: your iPhone model (for example “iPhone 15”) and iOS version.
- What happened: what you did, what you expected, and what you saw instead. The trip and catch number, and the steps to make it happen again, help most.
- When it happened: date, approximate time and your time zone.
- Screenshots or a short screen recording, if you can.
Frequently asked questions
Is Rodbender affiliated with a fishing brand?
No. Rodbender is an original game by Celik Works. It isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by any fishing-tackle brand, boat maker or charter business.
Does Rodbender have ads or in-app purchases?
Not in this version. Rodbender is free, shows no ads and has no in-app purchases. Coins are earned by playing and spent on rods, reels and lines.
If a future update adds optional ads or purchases, we will post the updated Privacy Policy and Terms of Use here before that update is released, and say so in the update notes.
Do I need an internet connection?
No. Rodbender plays fully offline. Only the Privacy Policy, Terms of Use and Support links open web pages.
I lost my progress, or I have a new iPhone. Can I get it back?
Rodbender has no accounts or cloud save. Your progress is saved on your iPhone and is included in your iPhone’s backup (iCloud Backup or a backup on your computer).
- New iPhone: set it up from a backup of your old iPhone, and your progress comes with it.
- Deleted the game without a backup: progress and coins saved only on the device cannot be recovered. We never receive a copy, so we cannot restore it.
How do I delete my data?
Delete the app. All game data is stored on your iPhone, so deleting Rodbender deletes it. Copies in older iPhone backups stay there until you delete those backups. There is no account to close.
To delete emails you sent us, write to hello@celikworks.com with the subject “Data deletion request”. We confirm within 10 business days and complete the request within 30 days. Full details: Deleting your data in the Rodbender Privacy Policy.
Does Rodbender track me or collect my data?
No. Rodbender collects no personal data and does not track you. It has no ads, no analytics and no third-party software that collects data, so it never shows the iPhone tracking prompt. See the Rodbender Privacy Policy.
Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information (US residents)
We do not sell or share personal information, and we do not use it for targeted advertising, so there is nothing to opt out of. If that ever changes, we will update the Privacy Policy first and add a way to opt out. Questions: email hello@celikworks.com. We will not treat you differently for using your privacy rights.
