It’s the day!! 🤗 Text Your Life version 1.3 is finally available! 🥳👏 Here are the download instructions and the new contents and features of this version:
_________________________________________
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE — DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS ⚠️
Due to the nature of a particularly annoying bug that we have had to solve (one that affected friendship and romance percentages, and personality bars), all players must start a new game from the beginning with this update. 🚫💾 We sincerely apologize for making you start over! 😭
It is REALLY important that you follow the next steps so you won’t encounter any problems while playing the new update:
--> Make sure you uninstall and install the game again.
--> Then, start the game and, when the main menu is loaded, go to the “Settings” screen and hit the “Change language” option. This might seem strange, but this step will ensure there’s no old data left on your PC.
--> You can start playing now!

TEXT YOUR LIFE - VERSION 1.3 CONTENT
📖 Story content: Chapter 3 is added in full! 35,000 words, 260 new choices, and 1 hour and 30 minutes of added playtime for each playthrough. It is a VERY replayable chapter, so we recommend you do it to be able to see all the routes that are already poking their little heads out with this update!
➕➕ Improvements included in this version:
👀 Previously selected choices will now show over a grey background! This feature was suggested by one of our Discord members (thank you, Q! 🥰), and it will hopefully help you all when replaying the game! You can also deactivate this feature in the “Settings” screen, or even reset it so you can start over from scratch in new playthroughs!
📝 Continue button - Quick save: Now, the game will automatically quick save when the player exits to the main menu, and right before every set of choices 🥳 A “Continue” button will then appear in the main menu, which will load the most recent quick save and will allow you to continue playing right where you left off.
So now, you won’t have to start from the beginning if you forgot to manually save, or if the game is closed by mistake or crashes (which can happen mostly on Android when switching between apps). We still recommend manually saving every once in a while, though, or if you want to come back to a specific point in the story, because every quick save overwrites the previous one.
🔝🖱️ Scrolling up to check previous messages mid-convo: Until now, scrolling up to check previous messages in an ongoing conversation was a pain, as every received message would force down the screen to display the most recent part of the convo. But now, that’s a thing from the past! Scroll up with no fear, our beloveds 😎 Hehe. An icon will also appear on the bottom right of the screen when you do so, press it and you’ll be instantly back to the bottom of the conversation!
There’s still a limit to the number of messages you can scroll up to mid convo, though, so if you want to check the whole conversation, you’ll have to do so by checking that chatroom when it’s not active from the chat list. Which leads us to the next improvement…
🔀 Access to the chat list (history) in the middle of an ongoing convo: Access the chat list, which serves as history of every conversation from the current chapter, whenever you want by clicking the “back” arrow on the top left of the chatroom. Even if you are in the middle of chatting with your crazy fictional friends (or enemies 🤭)!
Remember the history resets after every chapter, though. We can’t really avoid this 😖 The chats are so long and full of image assets that it would take too long to load if it didn’t, and it would get laggy when scrolling through it.
👸 MC’s name will now show in color during chats and calls when the name or nickname chosen by the player happens to be the same as any other character name or nickname. This was also brought to our attention by one of our Discord members! (Thank you, Arcissen! 🥰)
📊 Personality bars now also show the percentage, so you can build your MC’s character more easily!
🔔 New message notification upgrade: It will let you know who messaged you by showing the person’s/group’s name and profile picture!
💅 Some assets have been changed and now look better than before: like the “Send message” bar on the bottom, and the system notifications background.
🐛💥 Bug fixes:
--> Reported typos fixed! (Thank you to everyone who took the time to report those pesky little bastards! Hehe).
--> Bug that caused calls’ music and sound effects to keep playing after returning to main menu, fixed!
--> Major bug that let friendship, romance and personality traits points go above 100% and below 0% is now FIXED (We finally got rid of it 😭 We’re crying of pure happiness!). Please, if any of you where to have this same problem again (please nooo haha), let us know!
--> Bug that prevented characters’ profile gallery from being scrolled down with mouse – fixed!
