It brings us great pleasure to provide an update to our Android version, which has officially been pushed over the weekend, with the update V0.8.0 going live!💥📱
Main Features
This release comes packed with a lot of cool features, essentially focused on the social experience as part of being on actifit and hive.
We wanted to include even more features prior to push, but decided to release this version to avoid further delays in bringing this great update to our user base, while also prepping for upcoming releases for the year across our different platforms.
Below is a listing of the main features part of 0.8.0:
- New Social Engagement Actifit Reports Screen (with reward upvote/comment functionality):
Part of your actifit mobile experience features a complete social component, enabling a full view of actifit reports created by our community. This view allows you to see all the latest actifit reports, with details including payouts, activity count & type, votes, comments, detailed view and sharing capability.
This view is accessible via the main screen menu button

- New Sting Chat functionality:
As we have recently integrated stingchat to our web experience, and to bring this feature on a larger scale to our user base, we have integrated stingchat to our android version as well. Thanks toteam for their assistance in making modifications to make this feasible.
As of now, you are able to chat with other actifit (and other) community members via actifit android by using the chat button on main screen.

New Payout Options Settings (decline + liquid):
Upon community request, we have appended new settings for post payout options, which include either declining HIVE rewards, or receiving payouts in liquid format. In the latter case, reward.app account is set as the beneficiary for up to 90% of payout, and 5% set to actifit.liquid account. Default option remains at 50/50 HBD/HP.
New Main Screen announcement popup:
The app currently features a main news section. Additionally, we have added a new popup main announcement for any news that is brand new to make sure that users are well aware of this information. The popup will appear at pseudo-random intervals for our users when opening the app.
New Main Screen Tutorial Video/Help section:
The app now features a quick help/tutorial section which will be dynamically updated in the future with any new videos to help our user get a quick glimpse into the app and its main features.
New Newbie Reference Section:
Actifit newbies earn special extra rewards (up to 5 newbies, each up to 60 days). We wanted to make sure they are well aware of this so that they can verify themselves and share their actifit experience with others. This is accessible via top right section button
Newbie notification
New Battery Unoptimized Main Screen Notification:
If you do not have battery optimization properly enabled on your phone, you will notice a small exclamation mark button under your activity counter
Fix login button issue on some screens: The layout on some phone models prevented users from viewing/accessing the login button. This has been fixed.
Enter key login functionality: We have enabled Enter Key(similar mobile key/action) direct login without the need to click Login button
Remove any old steem references since dropping support (SP/SBD): Few old references to steem had been left out on the app. Those have been removed now across all languages.
Other fixes: Other minor fixes/visual improvements have been included as part of the release.
