The crew rides shotgun. We answer the rest.
Get in touch
The fastest way to reach the crew is email. We’re a small studio, so you’re writing to an actual human — not a ticket queue that swallows your message whole.
Email us at ben@brokenbranch.dev. We aim to reply within two business days. For account or data requests, we confirm completion within 30 days.
Quick answers
We’re still building the thing, so nobody’s written in yet — these are the questions we expect once the crew hits the road. The full rundown lives on the homepage FAQ, in the crew’s own words.
- Is the long way free?
Skates: Nobody pays a cent today — we're still building the thing. When it launches there'll be a free ride and a fair premium tier. I'll have done the math by then. I always do the math. - Is it safe to use while driving?
Skates: Yes — audio plays automatically, fully hands-free. But we're an entertainment companion, not a navigation app. Always use a proper GPS for directions. I'm saying this first because it matters. - Does it work in dead zones?
Scout: Yep — we pack snacks before we lose signal. The next few stories ride along in your pocket, so a missing bar never ends the trip. - Is it safe for kids?
Skates: It will be. Family Mode ships with the launch — kid-friendly content only, no scares, no edge, just curiosity and laughter — and it gets a PIN so little hands can't switch it off. No kid rides before that's done. - How do I delete my account or my data?
Macey: Email us and it's done. We remove your account data and confirm within 30 days. No hoops, no "are you sure" five times. Your call, every time. Reach us at ben@brokenbranch.dev.
Found a bug? Help us squash it
When you write in about a bug, include as much of this as you can:
- What happened— and what you expected to happen instead.
- Steps to reproduce— what you tapped, in what order, right before it went sideways.
- Your device & OS— e.g. Pixel 8, Android 15.
- When it happened— the rough date and time helps us match it to our logs.
- A screenshot or screen recording— if you’ve got one, it tells the whole story.
Send it all to ben@brokenbranch.dev and we’ll dig in.
Privacy, terms & your data
We only collect what we need to run the app — and you can ask us to delete it any time. The details live here:
- Privacy Policy — what we collect, why, and how to get it removed.
- Terms of Service — the rules of the road for using the long way.
Still stuck?
Macey: “Whatever it is, just tell us. We’d rather hear about the weird stuff than have you give up on the drive.” Email ben@brokenbranch.dev — we read every one.
