FishCoin for Android — 0.4 (build 16)

What's new since build 15

Install on AndroidAll builds

Superseded. This build only ever went to Play's internal testing track, which is what the rest of these notes were written against. The current build is 0.5.1 (build 19), on open testing — install it from FishCoin's page on Google Play.

You can report a catch or an angler

Every angler in a challenge sees every other angler's catches, video included, and the standings are public. Until this build there was no way to tell us that something in one of them should not be there.

Pick what is wrong with it, add anything else we should know, and send. You can leave an email address if you want an answer, and you do not have to.

We do not tell you what happens to a report afterwards. That is deliberate, and it is not us being unhelpful: if we told you a report had taken something down, the button would become a way of finding out how close somebody is to being taken down, which is exactly what somebody acting in bad faith would use it for.

One thing worth saying plainly, because it would be easy to assume otherwise: the measuring in this app is a measuring system, not a moderation system. It rejects clips it cannot measure — and it has no opinion at all about whether a clip it CAN measure contains something that should not be published. That is what the report button is for.

You can block an angler

Press and hold their row on the standings.

A blocked angler cannot challenge you, their catches stop appearing anywhere in the app for you, and any invitations they had already sent you disappear.

What a block cannot do, and we would rather tell you than let you find out: the public pages on fishcoin.ai have nobody signed in, so there is no "you" for a block to apply to there. A block cannot hide a catch from the website. If something should not be public at all, report it — that is the one that can take it down.

Settings → Blocked anglers shows everyone you have blocked and lets you undo it.

Why the version jumped to 0.4

Build 15 added account deletion and was numbered 0.3.1, which was too small a step for a new feature. This build corrects that rather than compounding it.

What would help most

Unchanged, and still first: tape-measure a fish and enter the number — with the tail pinched to a point, as the prompt asks. It is the only real reference we have for whether our measurement is right, and every one of them helps.
