How can we help?

At a glance

• How to play Find a safe gap. Tap a road to release its waiting vehicle. Avoid collisions to build your streak and score.
• Game modes Play your way. Select Standard, One Life, or Zen, then tap Endless (formerly Start). My Best keeps records by map and mode.
• Story Mode Complete the notebook. Finish each day to unlock the next; tap unlocked cards to replay. The original 16 days span Evergreen and Sunset Coast. The upcoming Midnight chapter adds eight more, for 24 days. Install the latest available update to see the chapters included in your version.

Menu names and updates

Look for Story Mode, Endless, and Daily Challenge on the main menu. Older versions may use different names; update the game to follow these instructions.

Leaderboards

Open Leaderboards, choose a map and Standard or One Life, and sign in when prompted. iPhone uses Apple Game Center; Android uses Google Play Games. Their rankings are separate. Zen and Story Mode are not ranked.

Sign-in is optional. You can play and save personal records offline. On Android, only runs played while connected to a Play Games profile are submitted; earlier unsigned-in scores are not added later.

If rankings will not open, check your internet connection and Game Center or Play Games sign-in, then try again. On Android, update the game through Google Play and check your Play Games profile.

Daily Challenge and discoveries

Daily Challenge gives players the same three-life challenge each day and resets at midnight Eastern Time. Tap its menu row to play. The trophy opens Game Center rankings on iPhone or Google Play Games rankings on Android.

The Vehicles guide (formerly Cars) records discoveries and explains vehicle behavior. Story Mode progress is separate from Endless records.

Saved progress

Records, discoveries, Story Mode progress, unlocks, and settings stay on your device. They do not automatically sync between devices or platforms. Device backups may include them.

Deleting the app or clearing its Android storage removes local progress. It does not delete provider-held leaderboard scores or purchases. See data deletion instructions.

Ads and an extra life

After losing three lives in Standard, choose Watch Ad · +1 Life for one optional continue, or End Run. Finish the ad to receive one life. This is available once per run, not in One Life or Zen. There are no banner ads or forced interstitials.

If an ad is unavailable, check your connection and choose Try to Load Ad, or end the run. Availability is not guaranteed. On Android, complete any required privacy message first; change choices in Settings → Privacy Choices when available.

Ads may load before you choose to watch, so skipping one does not prevent all ad-related data processing.

Ad-Free Play on iPhone

Tiny Traffic Circle is free to download. Open the crossed-out Ads icon for the optional one-time Ad-Free Play purchase: $2.99 in the US, with local pricing shown by the App Store. It stops Google ads from loading and gives one ad-free extra life per Standard run. There is no subscription or Family Sharing.

To restore it, choose Restore Purchases using the Apple Account that bought it. Check your App Store connection if the purchase is unavailable. Pending purchases activate when Apple approves them; refunds or revocations remove the benefit. Contact Apple for billing or refund requests.

Permanent Ad-Free on Android

On Android, open Permanent Ad-Free on the main menu. This separate one-time Google Play purchase costs $2.99 in the US; Google shows your local price before confirmation. It stops ads from loading and showing, and includes one extra heart without an ad, once per Standard run. There is no subscription. Purchases do not transfer between Apple and Google accounts.

Use Restore Purchases with the Google Account that bought the upgrade. If unavailable, check your connection and that Google Play has the latest update, then retry. Pending payments unlock the benefit only when Google completes them. Refunds or revocations remove ownership. See Google Play refund help.

Settings and accessibility

Open How to Play & Support for music volume, Music and Sound Effects switches, and one-handed controls. Choose left- or right-handed controls in the newest update; each button releases its matching road.

If sound is missing, check the game and device volume. If a control does not respond, close open panels, unpause, and restart the app if needed.

iPhone menus and controls have VoiceOver labels, but gameplay relies on visual motion and timing. Larger Text is not supported. Let us know about accessibility problems.
