Changelog
What's new on the website and the iOS and Android apps, newest first.
October 2026
Where it was caught, and two Tap anywhere options
iOS 1.1.5- Record where a shiny was caught, from the Shiny Found pop-up or Edit catch.
- With Tap anywhere on, a tap on the number can count instead of opening it for typing.
- The hunt buttons can fold behind one Hunt options button, so a stray tap doesn't open another page.
Tap anywhere to count
iOS 1.1.4- A new way to count, in Settings, Preferences: tap any empty part of the hunt screen to add an encounter, with a short vibration. A small minus button stays for an extra tap.
- An option to vibrate when you count with the buttons.
- Each multi-hunt window can run its own auto-count.
- Settings are grouped into sections.
