FishCoin for Android — 0.1 (build 10)

What's new since build 9

Install on AndroidAll builds

Sign in to compete

Challenges and tournaments now need an account. Sign in with Google from the prompt, or Settings > Public profile. This is the first sign-in Android has had.

Why: a challenge goes out in your name, and the anglers in it need a way to reach you. Four challenges sent before this build reached nobody, because the accounts that sent them had no name, no email and no phone number attached.

(iOS also offers Sign in with Apple. That's an App Store requirement rather than a feature Android is missing — Google sign-in is the whole of it here.)

A full profile is now required

Before sending a challenge or entering a tournament, you need a display name and a verified email. You're asked once and it's remembered. A prize with no way to contact the winner isn't a prize.

Standings, in the app

Compete > Standings. Biggest fish, total length and fish count, all-time or this month, with everyone's catch thumbnails. Tap a catch to open it full screen, same as your own gallery. The same board is at fishcoin.ai/standings.

The rules screen

How a challenge works, how it starts, and how entry fees will work when they arrive — reachable from any challenge. Same text as the website, generated from one source so the two can't drift.

LINKS NOW GO TO fishcoin.ai The rules, standings and install pages moved onto the real domain.

Known limits in this build

minority of them — most come back as "being checked". If you land a good fish and it doesn't count, that's our measurement pipeline rather than anything you did, and we want to hear about it.

a species automatically, so every measured fish counts.

phone number won't notify them yet.

there's no final result screen.

What would help most

Tape-measure a fish and enter the number. It's the only real reference we have, and every one of them makes the measurements better.

Second most: send a challenge to somebody and tell us whether it arrived. That was the broken path, and it's the one worth hammering.
