Standland for Android

Standland is the best activity app I have used. I live in a wheelchair so most activity apps do not apply to me. StandLand is perfect for me because it detects my movement in my wheelchair! Love that there are daily challenges with cute little imps to collect. Rate it 6 stars!

It’s a good app and encourages me to get up and move, but still there ever be an update? I’ve achieved 100% of the goals and now working on a mission and it’s starting to get boring.

I love the characters and the backgrounds that can you change for 1.99 a background and you can win characters just by standing! You also get free backgrounds for clicking on some shiny Gemmy’s they include diamonds 💎! I just hope this app never goes away! I love looking at my companion on my Google Watch complication and I can chose a different companion for my Google Watch and phone if I want! It’s so cute! You can even purchase stats for 1.99! To see how your doing! It includes basic stats! You can also do missions to make sure you stand and get a free character! You can also click on the cloud Gemmy to make it 3D in your world! I just love this app!

After reading reviews about this app years ago, I downloaded it with high hopes. Within weeks, I was bored and frustrated. The most simple interaction is difficult — trying to tap to collect the gems requires a small touch target precision, assuming the little characters (aka gemmys) are in sight. If they aren’t, you need to swirl around the “world” in search did them. The action is dizzying and makes me feel nauseated. There’s no way to collect them all at once, nor is there a way to automatically collect them daily. You have to open the app every single day to collect gems. What’s worse is that you need to open the app after you’ve met your goal, else you don’t get all the gems. The constant need to interact is annoying enough without flaws…but…flawed it is. Whatever it registers as a stand doesn’t match what Google registers as a stand. To make matters worse, when I just traveled/changed time zones, it took away credit for a stand. The stand it removed wasn’t even on the day I traveled & when the time zone changed, which is what I would have expected. This wrecked my stand streak and forced me to lose one of the challenges. As other reviewers have mentioned, the developers haven’t bothered to add new levels, challenges, or characters. The app already doesn’t motivate me — knowing that there’s a finite number of tasks doesn’t help. The first time I downloaded this app, it lasted a couple of months. Then I noticed that I wasn’t opening it any more, so I deleted it. After a year or more, I forgot how frustrating it was and fell for the cuteness factor a second time. Now, after another month with the app, I’m so frustrated by the broken streak (from the time zone change) that I’m considering deleting it again.

After having this program for two years and having completed all of the awards long ago, I wish the developers would keep adding achievements. It was fun the first month or two, but after you’ve completed a years worth there’s just nothing left to do, and it loses its appeal.
