I recently did a minor update to the Open/Close iOS app that I made a few years ago to give it some visual compatibility with the new iOS 26 interface updates.
With this update I decided to make the app a free download from the App Store as I would prefer more people downloaded it and hopefully were encouraged to use it to go check out the Open/Close street art trails for themselves.
When I first built the app circa 2019 it was an opportunity for me to get some experience developing an iOS app, and I also thought that maybe if it sold enough copies of the app then I could donate a share of profits to the Open/Close project.
However, sales of the app have always been pretty low, so I’d rather people were able to download the app and find out more about the Open/Close trails, so please do download it if you’re interested in checking out the app and the Open/Close trails.
If you enjoy the app and more specifically you enjoy the Open/Close street art trails then do please consider donating to them and supporting the work they do.
Projects like Open/Close really do make a big difference to Dundee by “injecting life to the alleyways and forgotten corners of the city“, so follow Open/Close on Instagram, check out their website at openclosedundee.co.uk, and go check out the trails!
