Common questions

How do I add my games quickly?

Open Add Games. Pick from Quick Picks (popular games), search the App Store by name, or import a screen recording of Settings → Apps so Sparrow can read your installed games all at once. You can also share a game's App Store page to Sparrow from the share sheet.

Why does a game open through an App Store banner?

iOS doesn't let one app open another app directly unless that app supports it. Sparrow shows Apple's App Store banner for the game, and you tap Open there. If a game has its own link (like game://), add it under Edit Game… and Sparrow will use it instead.

How do I open a game that isn't on the App Store?

Make a Shortcut that opens the game, then type that Shortcut's name under Edit Game… in Sparrow.

Does Sparrow need an account or the internet?

No account, ever. Your library works offline. Sparrow only goes online to look up games on the App Store and load their icons and screenshots.

Where is my data, and how do I delete it?

Everything stays on your device. Delete Sparrow and its data goes with it. See the privacy policy.

Can I use Siri?

Yes. Try "Open Balatro in Sparrow", "Continue playing in Sparrow" or "Surprise me in Sparrow". Sparrow's games and collections also show up in Spotlight search and Shortcuts.
