Frequently Asked Questions
What is empty?
▼
empty is a meditative experience app. Frosted glass items fall from a cosmic sky. Tap one to reveal a hidden philosophical message inside. Each day you get one free opening — after that, you can purchase additional openings.
How does the daily free opening work?
▼
Your very first tap is always free. After that, you get one free opening per day. The counter resets at midnight. If you've already used your free opening, you can either wait until tomorrow or purchase an instant opening for $0.99.
What are the different themes?
▼
empty features 6 unique visual themes, each with its own Metal shader sky, color palette, falling symbols, and curated messages: Cosmos (cyan/deep space), Aurora (mint/nature), Ember (orange/fire), Ocean (blue/depth), Void (monochrome/minimal), and Sakura (pink/blossom). Swipe left or right to switch between them.
How do I switch themes?
▼
Simply swipe left or right anywhere on the screen. The background sky, colors, and falling items will smoothly transition to the next theme. The dots at the top show which theme you're viewing.
Can I share the messages I receive?
▼
Yes! After revealing a message, tap the Share button. empty generates a beautiful card image with your message and theme colors that you can share to Instagram, Messages, WhatsApp, or save to your camera roll.
Where is my data stored?
▼
All data is stored locally on your device. Nothing is sent to external servers. Your data is protected by iOS encryption and sandboxing. Deleting the app removes all local data.
How much does it cost?
▼
empty is free to download. Your first opening is free, and you get one free opening per day. Additional openings cost $0.99 each as a one-time consumable purchase through the App Store.
I purchased an opening but it didn't work. What should I do?
▼
If a purchase didn't complete properly, try force-closing and reopening the app. If the issue persists, contact us at h.ahmetgezgin@gmail.com with your approximate purchase time and we'll help resolve it. Refund requests can also be submitted through Apple.
💡 Tips
- Items disappear? They fall continuously — new ones appear every few seconds. Be patient and tap when one catches your eye.
- Swipe not working? Make sure you're swiping horizontally (left or right), not vertically.
- Purchase issue? Check your App Store payment method and internet connection. Try restarting the app.
- Want a specific theme? Swipe through all 6 themes. The dot indicators at the top show your current position.
