The new app "Crypto Alerts" - alternative to the Bitcoin Checker.

[Streamatico]

Try the new app "Crypto Alerts" - it's an alternative to the old Bitcoin Checker.

I have made an effort to implement the features of the old app and add new functionalities, including:

• Modern interface
• Charts for most popular exchanges
• Automatic update of the currency pairs list
• and many other minor features

The app is completely free to use with up to 5 cryptocurrency pairs.
For more than 5 pairs, a paid subscription is required, with a minimal price to cover development costs and support further improvements.

I hope you will enjoy using this app.

Install from Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.streamatico.cryptoalert

Thank you! The UI looks pleasantly familiar. But is it open source?

[Streamatico]

No, the source code is closed. It is based on open-source data module that is distributed under the MIT license. If necessary, I may open a redesigned data module used in the new application in the future. I don’t plan to fully open the app code yet.

I use no google service, so no way to unlock more than 5 pairs for me. I stay with the old version and cross my fingers.

Wtf, seriously?? This is obviously a clone of the old free open source projects. You definitely didn't build it from scratch, the code base is stolen. And you have the impudence to close the source code and charge money?!?

I call for a boycott! Everyone, don't use the app, but report it!

[Streamatico]

The code is completely new. So that there is no doubt that this new app, I will publish most of the app into Open Source.

P.S.
I myself used the old Bitcoin Checker and I was sad to see that it disappeared from Google Play and was not developed, this was the impetus for creating an alternative. I spent a lot of time and effort implementing the app.

[aCID-sLAM]

Maybe you consider a alternative way for unlocking more than 5 exchanges, without google play.

[Streamatico]

@aCID-sLAM Ok, I'll think about it. But I still don’t understand how to update the app without Google Play. How do you currently install and update other apps? Downloading APK manually is an inconvenient and unreliable method.

It's not available on Huwaei's AppGallery!

Is it compatible with Huwaei EMUI 13?

Is a damn fu*king bad copy! 😡

@aCID-sLAM
I just tried it via Aurora on a degoogled Android 13 and it failed to install.

@Streamatico
Can you please publish APKs in the Resources of your GitHub anyway, for those of us masochistic enough to want to update manually? 🙂 You could restrict that to major updates only, if it's too much work to put every little thing on there, and it would still be better than not having it at all on degoogled phones.

Of course it would be much easier if you open-sourced it because then you could publish it on FOSS app stores like Accrescent or F-Droid, but... yeah.
LE: Oh wait, Accrescent allows closed-source apps!

@KoolZero
Why? What's missing that was important to you?
