The guides here stay free and stay online. The setup guide is the version you can print and keep: every setting written out for both platforms, in the order worth doing them, with the screens named rather than described so you can follow it while holding the phone.
NZ$12
one-off, no GST charged

What it covers
The account-linking checklist
The four steps to run before changing phones, written for both platforms, including the ordering mistake that overwrites a cloud save with an empty one.
Storage without losing progress
Which buttons are safe on Android and iOS, which are not, and how to tell whether a given game keeps your progress on the device or on an account.
Per-app data and battery controls
Restricting one game rather than the whole phone, on both platforms, with the settings named exactly as they appear.
A new-game checklist
One printable page: the settings to find in the first five minutes of any new puzzle game, covering sound, haptics, frame rate, updates and purchase authentication.
How ordering works
- You send the form. That is a request, not a purchase, and nothing is charged.
- I reply within one business day confirming the item, the price and the bank details.
- You transfer the amount if you still want it. Changing your mind costs nothing and needs no explanation.
- The PDF is emailed within two business days of the payment clearing.
What is for sale is writing and nothing else. No coins, lives, boosters or accounts are sold from this site, and nothing that belongs inside a game could be delivered from here.

Who you are buying from
An individual. I write this site and sell this one file occasionally rather than as a registered business, so there is no NZBN and no GST registration, and no GST invoice is issued; a plain receipt is sent on request. Publisher details are in the legal notice, and ordering, delivery and refund terms are in the terms of use.
