- Sorry I missed Warrior Cats 20th birthday... but I wasn't happy with the first version of this video, so I took the extra week to make it a hundred times better!
---
We all know about the Warrior Cats Hub, the current (and only) official warrior cats app. But over a decade ago, HarperCollins released a different app, and for the longest time it was unobtainable... until now!
I'll be diving deep into the unknown "Warriors" app that ruled my childhood in the early 2010s. Exclusive fun facts, interesting character profiles, and an official Warrior Cats game are all features the app brags about - but does it live up to the hype?

The intro for the app was the same intro for the old site 🥰 nostalgia at its finest. I miss when things weren’t a clean and sanitized corporate hellscape and actually had character to them.
W comment
i still miss the old website, even though it was objectively hot garbage
12:03 from what I remember, that video was Vicky welcoming you to the world of warrior cats. It was under a minute long and she was either sitting outside somewhere or in her offer with her cat messing around on her window.
ok but why is this channel so underrated subscriber wise😭😭 love these videos
Frrr
I remember this app! It was like the ONLY thing that ever mentioned Nutmeg by name I'm pretty sure
omg 3:46 that was also the same intro that ALWAYS played when you loaded the old website and it was SO LOUD. If you ever hear anyone mention a screamer on the old website that's what they're talking about. I always had to mentally prepare myself whenever i would visit the site. good times lol
edit i forgot to mention WHY did they make cinderpelt exclusive trivia that she was in love with firestar????
i LOVED this app, i was so upset when my phone was too updated / developed to play it anymore 💔
12:02 , i remember as a child i used to watch the video from the video tab all the time since i thought it was so cool that i got to see one of the erins, i felt so honored lol
the video from what i remember had one of the erins sitting in front of their house(?) in the grass on a sunny day, they were introducing themselves and the app and that’s all i know ..
I love your content so much, it's like a combination of Izzzyzz and FalconDevelops to make awesome videos about niche Warriors history
This just reminds me how much i love/ miss Wayne’s art
that loud ass intro would jump scare me everytime back then LMAOOOOO good memories
hearing persona 4 music in the background of a warrior cats video gave me such a feeling a joy. you have incredible taste!!
I remember this app. I had gotten a Nook to read the digital-exclusive books that hadn't been printed at the time, and I had downloaded the app onto it. I can vouch that it was almost never updated. I know because I checked in often so I could continue updating my bookshelf in-app.
I should still have it on the Nook, actually. I don't believe I ever uninstalled it.
I watched your video about Cloudsnap a few weeks ago and found it really interesting, and watched this video after it appeared on my recommended, not realising you’d also made both videos. They’re very well researched and I love how you present your videos in general!! I hope you get more subscribers soon!!
I remember this, but I got to it from the web as a website.
The timeline used to expand when hovering over them, but I remember one was glitched and it annoyed me.
A warriors topic i would love I dive into is lost characters!! I remember there being a cat called Batear who didn’t actually exist? And a cat called Troutfin!
The profiles of certain cats are interesting because, in the warrior cats ultimate field guide, the "certain cat profiles" are there.
I have never read a single word of a warrior cats book but I really liked this video. Thanks for a pleasant trip back in time to the weird beginnings of smartphones :)
omg i completely forgot about that app!! i got it when i first started reading warriors and i remember getting confused because a lot of the things in the trivia game were false and i would get them wrong,, i think i deleted it after reading multiple retconned things in the character descriptions as well SJSHSJ
I'm not sure what the timeline was for when they took the app off the app store, but I wonder if it was around the time where they got rid of every trace of Wayne McLoughlin art :(
I hate that they got rid of his art, it’s a spit to his grave.
@@MaddoxEzman Agree! As soon as he died they got rid of every trace of his art. I've really tried to give the new cover artist a chance but it doesn't hold a candle to Wayne's
@@aeluromancy2126 I agree, don’t get me wrong the new art isn’t bad per se but it’s what I call “too modern” because everyone is making animals look too realistic in media. Warriors is a fantasy series, that stylized art made them stand out. I guess it’s fitting for the art to match the quality of the writing nowadays. Which is really sad ;(
I still have this on my old ipad. Tbh all it was good for as far as I can remember was the books section where I was able to mark off what books I'd read like a checklist.
This app feels like a weird dream these days lol I remember the opening PV used to be on the old website too (but longer), and it would scare me half to death as a kid so much so that I had to turn the sound off whenever I loaded it up :')
3:47 AWOOOP- jumpscare..
Also, I kinda got unnecessarily excited when you showed the Warriors fact video bc the screenshot you had is one by my friend and she writes her own books now lol
I REMEMBER THIS GAME !!!! It was my favourite thing ever I showed it to all my friends :3
The Warrior Code tab is so funny because they included two photos of Firestar
You are mad underrated. Very good commentary and lovely editing that isn't necessarily in the way, but does catch your attention to keep the video engaging. Keep up the good work! :)
man i wanted this app SOOOO bad! my family was an android family at the time, and my grandparents didnt let me download it on their ipad (understandably) so i spent my time on deviantart and other websites making warrior cats OCs. my first email (hilariously, the one attached to this youtube, if that tells you how long i've had this account) has my warrior cats oc in the name TT man, this brings me back. thanks for sharing!
The loading screen for the app/the website is BURNED in my mind. I was obsessed with the og website in any form. I remember thinking about the Leopardstar was a dry paw was so cool. I kinda miss the weird intro. XD
I wish it was still in the app store even if it hasn't been updated. Oh and when I accessing the links to the short stories, both Links led me to the stories about the elders
I genuinely love your content, i wasn’t like a warrior cats fan as a kid (although I have seen some MAPs of it (remember when that meant something better, yeah me too) I like learning stuff about other fandoms, and your videos are really well made and informative, they’re very fun to watch! Thank you for making it :)
Edit:just saw the layout part of the video and immediately got transported back to the 2010s, i can practically feel my bones creaking now
You should definitely try and see if you can make a video of the old Warriors website. I loved playing the game where you journey from the forest to the lake territories
Omg i recognize that fossil fighters music in the background, you got good taste
This brings me back. Just finished watching your backlogs and am really impressed. Do you have any videos in the world about fan theories or the sorts?
I remember having this… ong that thumbnail just shot so many flashbacks to me of my like 3rd grade self stumbling through this
oh my god i was terrified of the cat noises at 3:48 when i was like 10 bc i would stay up past my bedtime and look through the app on my tablet and the sound was always so loud that it got me in trouble with my parents multiple times😭😭
i had the app when i was a kid and i can confirm that the timeline text was readable in the old version !!! i have notebooks where i'd written down everything on the app word for word for quick reference (and because rewriting info about warrior cats was fun
This just unlocked a hidden core memory
I've only ever watched one other video by you and that's the books that were planned but were dropped. I'm thinking about after finishing this video I'll watch some more of your content.
Goshh, I nearly forgot this app existed. I remember playing the trivia game quite a lot with a friend of mine and I think I remember some questions incorrectly wrong too. It's super cool to see it brought up and talked about!!
This app excited me so much as a kid!! A personal story, but my goodness the little fact about Scourge actually hating the teeth in his collar because they made it hard for him to swallow, plus he just wanted to look intimidating in any way possible, made me happy to read cause I was bullied a lot for my height as a kid so I loved any new content about Scourge :,)
I used to have it but didn’t t use it much
I just remembered it existed and wondered where it went. Even trying to find it in my old iPhone 4 I used to have
YES i remember this! the app’s intro kinda scared me as a kid bc of how loud it was. i downloaded it on i think it was either my ipod touch or my moms ipad. i remember being kinda disappointed because i thought there would be more games and quizzes and they didn’t have profiles for every character but i liked looking at the maps and the timeline :)
yooo that intro caterwauling gave me Nam flashbacks to middle school. Thanks for the reminder
Oh my God I remember this app! I had it in the depths of my Warriors days, back in like 2013-2014 I believe. Had no idea it was discontinued.
Oh my god I remember this app. The only time I remember using it was while my brother was at some Boy Scouts thing and the only thing I had with me was my iPad, but because there was no Wi-Fi the only app I had that I could use was this. I remember complaining to my dad that I was bored because there wasn't much to do and I had already looked through it all. I asked if there was Wi-Fi which I don't think there was.
But that's the only time I remember using it
I vividly remember seeing this app and downloading around 2013. Still sad it had to go
Its odd finding the fandom at this point. I was a fan of the series as it was coming out (the latest new release when i stopped was the greyfur(?) Comics and as a kid i wasnt even aware of a fandom. Now im an adult and discovering so much has happened since my youth is like a time capsule.
I need to bust out the old iPod and see if I can download it
I used to LOVE this app and begged my stepmom to download it. We were in a motel with garbage wifi so it didn’t load and I had to wait a day lol
My old ipod touch was too old to get the app so I had to bug my friends w/iphones to use it
oh wow I forgot about this app’s existence but I definitely remember browsing it all the time now. The opening loading screen always spooked me though XD the sound was so load
i have never read warriors or really known anything about warriors, so idk why, but i can't not watch a new soleil upload
I have something to suggest. This probably isn't worth for a full video, not much research, I just want to say something about it and see if it appeals to anybody. Did anyone notice Squirrelflight's personality change from Light in the Mist to River? Squirrelflight in the Broken Code was headstrong, ambitious, and kind, but in River and Sky, she's snappy and an unlikeable character, especially since she was the reason Nightheart moved to ShadowClan
I completely forgot about this app! I had this app back in 2011 or 2012, I remember reading all the stuff in it and marking off books that I had read.
I WASN'T EVEN BORN YET!
i remember this app omg 😭😭 i had it on my little samsung tablet and had not a clue it was ever taken down . it was up for a while because it had to be 2015 when i had it , i remember reading about characters like tigerstar and imagining it was a mother telling her kits about him lol . interesting video :-)

All this cats need theraphy 🤣
lmao did they use the Mario Galaxy question mark coin for the trivia icon??
i still have it on my old ipod touch iirc :)
Does anyone else remember that cat yowling startup animation playing when you opened the old website back in the day or is that just me? I miss the old version of the website and its flash games and even just its web design was a lot more appealing than the current minimalist approach
why does the triva game use the super mario galaxy question coin for its mini icon
Those flashlight apps were scams lol they either turn on your built in flash or maxed your screen brightness and turned it white
I liked seekers more than warriors honestly when I read both as a kid but then again, I did read seekers first so maybe I'm biased. I'm just glad to finally know the name of the series as I couldn't find it when I tried searching for it.
I still have this app on my phone! Tried to open it a while ago and it crashed immediately and was wondering what the heck happened to it. Sad to know it's gone but at least I can still look at the app icon
I almost forgot that this existed! I had it on my very first phone, I wonder if it’s still on there if I can manage to actually turn it back on someday.
I remember this 😭 I was so happy back then
Was too young to experience any of this, but i remember when YT looked like this! 4:13 i thought it was a weird face instead of a TV 😭 i was like, three to four. Maybe five
This app feels like a fever dream whenever I think of it, i'm so glad it's actually real and not just a weird creation of my brain
Not quite a recreation but there is an app called scribd that has all of the original harper Collins warrior cat audio books but it doesn't have any of the additional information
I had this app on my tablet years ago!
I actually hadn't even read the first book yet back then, I'd just discovered that Warriors existed and was looking for ways to read the books without paying for them (I was 13, don't judge me xD). I found the app and was happy to read the first five chapters there, and on my next birthday either my parents or my grandpa (I forgot which) gave me the first two books (in Dutch :/ I'm from the Netherlands, but I was already fluent in English at the time and actually preferred to read in English). I remember reading all the clan profiles and looking at the timeline. Idk why I didn't do more, but I definitely did enjoy myself on the app :D
I remember having the app on my IPad, so many memories!
At 6:30 you spoiled POT for new readers!! 😭😭
(Look at the thing that says “kits:”)
Bro I had this app and it’s wild to think I used to use an app instead of like the warriors wiki
you linked the elders concern twice in the description and not the other story
ooohhh I remember this app, I downloaded it at age 11 and I remember being SOOO mad that half the trivia questions weren’t right LOL
I don't know why but when I saw some of the books like the ones with the bear I thought it was made by Michael morpugo
i loved this app so much! i was so invested in it and got on it almost every day. the opening screen got me a lot xD does anyone remember the warrior cats original website?
this video made me dig up my old barnes and noble nook (LMAO) i and i still had this downloaded! a slightly newer version, it's got yellowfangs secret in the book list but not much else. i remember always having the sound turned off because the intro cutscene made me so embarrassed that my parents would think im watching cat videos instead of reading
I had this app. I miss it so much. Kind of. I wish they never deleted it.
I'm mostly laughing that it claims firestar's mother's identity was supposed to be exclusive. Didn't fireheart say his mother's name to Princess when he was proving they were siblings?
Never knew there was an app, but I swear some of these exclusive stories/trivia are in one of the guidebooks? They seem familiar.
God, I miss 2016-2009 content.
I actually had an iPad mini when I got into Warriors in 2014/15, and more and more the UI was shown, it feels familiar but also like I never had it. Sadly, even though my current iPad has the almost 10 year old data of that first one due to Apple's feature of loading an old device's data onto a new one, it seems that if I did have it, at some point it was deleted clean off the device, so I'll never know. I'm always a sucker for ways that writers can include little bits of trivia that would feel clunky if written into books, though.
i still have this app on my old ipad mini
Underrated holy heck
U know there’s an app called characters and that app contains info to all the cats former positions in clan and rank, age they died at, precursor and successor, mate and kits, other names, cause of death, for some cats a reference picture and their current position in clan and rank
Apparently it says Scourge was at a point or is (I don’t remember anymore) in StarClan
I had this!!!! i miss it
This app actually looks really cool, too bad it's gone
I remember this app!
I say bring some of this back
The "new" warriors app isnt even supported anymore because it doesnt get updated
How do you emulate an app that is no longer available to download? I'm really interested in tracking down the Night At The Museum 2 mobile game for Blackberry, which despite being listed on the same Wikipedia page as the film's console game adaptation, is in fact a completely separate game.
I had this on my ancient Samsung Galaxy ii, not because I'd been a fan of the books, but so I could use its herb instructions to help our medicine cat when we'd roleplay.
I have that on my ipod touch i think
I REMEMBER THIS I SWEAR
Didn't it have like a list of the herbs the medicine cars use as well?
I miss this app lol
I STILL HAVE IT!!!
i HAD this app, i BEGGED my parents to let me get it
Where to download?
The links you gave to the story in the description are both the same. They both link to “After Sunset: The Right Choice?”
Oops, fixed it now :)
