Hello my friends, as some of you might know, I've spent most of my time last week working on polishing up HiveSnaps. Obvious to everyone, there is just no way I'm going to nail it in one go, and this whole third time is a charm seems to not work for me. That said, I'm so close, I can taste it.

At any rate, I got a new Beta release for you all to checkout. This incorporates and fixes a lot of issues I had not caught, and it also incorporates some (not all) of the wants people shared with me. To be honest, there's almost no limit to how many things I can keep on adding, even games for that matter are not off the table. But it makes sense to me to start here, or around here, and work towards something else progressively if there's enough interest.

If you are new here, if this blog of mine is too confusing, allow me to direct you to previous posts so that you know what I'm up to.

The Timeline I hope to deliver

I was just sharing on Discord with the community about this whole journey of mine, and I'm feeling optimistic, yet cautious about overpromising here.

If it all goes well, and I think it will, I should be submitting something to the playstore at the end of this week, or at the beginning of the next. Two things this Beta release doesn't have, the GIF searches and the Native Sharing have already been implemented, and thus, I'm feeling comfortable with it.

All this said, and having spoken to my brother on this matter, I'm trying to figure out how to deliver a Beta for iOS users. My brother @joseamenac will be posting about his iOS port later today (funny enough his first post), and I will try to guide people as much as I can to get their Iphones up and running too. iOS is tricky- What can I say?

Feel free to

Let me know if something is broken, not working right, glitchy, not useful, the whole shebang. As I've said before this code might be opensource, but it doesn't mean the sense of ownership is not alive and well inside my heart.

At any rate, help me spread the word, get more testers.

For my developer Friends

If anyone feels like they ought to get involved, come talk to me. I'm not against solo flying, but it would be nice to elevate the game a little too.

At any rate, the github repo is already public, and anyone is welcome to take a look under the hood.

Much love
