Dots & Spot

Support

iOS quick help

Choose Trap Spot or Protect the Dots, then Easy, Medium, or Hard. There are 60 puzzles across the two modes.
Move one Dot along a connecting line to an empty neighboring point. Tap the Dot and then its destination, or drag it there. Spot moves after you.
In both modes, trap Spot so it cannot move before the turn allowance runs out. Spot cannot capture Dots in Trap Spot. In Protect the Dots, keep each Dot next to another Dot along a connecting line: Spot can capture a neighboring Dot left alone, and one capture ends the attempt.
Spot can rewind once per attempt, erasing its preceding move and your following move before choosing a different escape. Your spent turns still count. Even when trapped, Spot may rewind free. There is no player Undo control.
Hint highlights recommended moves until you move. You may request hints as often as you need.
Hinted wins count toward solved-board progress, but only unhinted wins can update your Personal Best.
The benchmark is a scoring target, separate from the turn allowance shown for your attempt. Previously saved attempts can retain their original allowance after an update; Restart begins a fresh attempt using the current allowance.
Use Restart for a fresh attempt, or open board selection to choose another puzzle.

iOS saved progress

Your progress stays on this device.

Dots & Spot saves progress automatically on this device and works offline. The current version does not synchronize progress between devices; iCloud synchronization and Game Center are disabled. If you are troubleshooting saved progress, do not delete the app before contacting support.

In Progress & settings, choose Delete saved progress… and confirm Delete local progress to clear the current board, solved boards, Personal Bests, and play counters on this device, including unsaved play. Device backups are not deleted.

Android gameplay beta

Android testing and saved progress

The Android gameplay beta includes 1,260 boards across seven modes, with all boards available for testing. Use the in-game tutorials and How to Play for its rules. Purchases, ads, cloud saves, online achievements and leaderboards are not included in this beta.

Progress and unfinished rounds are saved locally. The beta disables Android app-data backup and device-transfer backup and provides no cloud recovery. iOS progress and purchases do not transfer to Android.

To delete local progress, use Android Settings > Apps > Dots & Spot > Storage & cache > Clear storage, or uninstall the app. Labels vary by Android version. This deletes progress and cannot be undone through the beta. There is no in-app deletion control. If you are troubleshooting, contact support before clearing storage or uninstalling.

Private Google Play testing requires an invitation and the invited Google account. Internal and closed testing are separate; leave the internal test before joining the closed test. This is a gameplay beta, not an Android production release.
