What is JIN:Practice Pixel Kung Fu?

JIN:Practice Pixel Kung Fu is a daily check-in app for practicing Eight Pieces of Brocade (八段锦), a traditional Chinese health exercise. The app features pixel-art style characters, progress tracking, and professional audio guidance.

What iOS versions are supported?

DailyJin requires iOS 15.6 or later. It's compatible with iPhone and iPad devices.

Is the app available in different languages?

Yes! JIN:Practice Pixel Kung Fu supports English, Simplified Chinese (简体中文), and Traditional Chinese (繁體中文). You can switch languages in the app settings.

Can I check in multiple times per day?

Yes! DailyJin supports multiple check-ins per day. Your daily count and streak will be tracked accurately.

How does the consecutive days counter work?

The app counts consecutive days with at least one check-in. If you miss a day, your streak resets but your total check-in count is preserved.

What is the Practice Tree?

My data/progress disappeared

Your check-in data is stored locally on your device. If you've recently updated iOS or restored your device, some data might be affected. Unfortunately, we cannot recover lost local data, but future check-ins will be tracked normally.

How do I share my practice record?

Go to the Check-in Manager (calendar icon) and tap the share button. This will copy a formatted message about your practice to your clipboard.

Can I clear today's check-ins?

Yes, in the Check-in Manager, tap "Clear Today's Check-ins". This will remove all check-ins for the current day (with a confirmation dialog).
