Your rank
JJC0 street cred
How to rank up: play and move about (standing still does not count, up to 4 hours a day), finish your hustle tasks, earn money, buy clothes, cars and houses, and come back every day (the streak pays more). Doing the same thing again and again in one day pays less, so mix it up. Higher ranks open luxury places, houses, cars and clothes.

Graphics
Low is smoothest on older phones. The game restarts to apply a change.
30 fps keeps the phone cool and the battery longer, and stays steady. 60 fps is smoother if your phone can take it.
When the phone is busy (recording the screen, hot), the picture softens a little to keep the game moving. Always sharp never softens it (the game may slow down instead).
Too dark or too bright on your screen? Set it here. Night and rain stay easy to see either way.
Full screen
Hides the browser bars while you play.
Phone buttons
Drag each button where your thumb likes it. Tap one button to size only that one (tap it again for all). Set how see-through they are. Open it while driving to move the pedals and arrows. Kept for this phone, upright and sideways separately.
Driving on the phone
Pedals: ◀ ▶ on the right steer, the gas pedal and the brake pedal on the left (keep holding the brake to reverse; hold it while you turn fast to drift). Wheel: turn the steering wheel with your thumb. Joystick: the old way.
Guide
The yellow arrow shows where to go now: your next task, your route, food, the toilet or your bed when you need them. Arrows on the road follow your GPS: green to your work, red to a place you picked.
Camera
Follow: the camera swings round behind you as you move, so you don't keep turning it yourself.

Tips
A short tip shows the first time you meet something new: the phone, driving, fighting, the map and more.
Time and weather
Day, night, rain and harmattan change by themselves, at the same moment for every player in Lagos. One game day lasts 2 hours: long mornings, afternoons and evenings, and a short night.
