Show HN: CoinHub for iOS
- vishal_sankhla 9y agoJust downloaded the app! Pretty neat and cool app. It would be great to be able to add a portfolio to this app. Good work overall.
- electic 9y agoHi HN, I bought my first Bitcoin and Ethereum. Like many of you know, cryptocurrency is traded 24/7/365. So the first thing I did was go to the App Store and look for some great quote and news apps so I can stay connected to what is happening in the markets. What I found was disappointing. There weren’t many apps and the ones I did find were terribly designed, didn’t cover all the exchanges, didn’t plot out trend lines clearly, didn’t have news, and weren’t realtime. If you are doing anything with cryptocurrency, having this at your finger tips is a must. So I began to write a simple, yet stylish, app that would just tell me the quote of currencies I had invested in. I hope you like it. If you have feedback or questions, let me know! -R
- gmaster1440 9y agoThis looks great! I paid for Crypto Pro because it has an Watch complication, couldn't tell from the site if CoinHub supports that.
- electic 9y agoNot yet. I could add Apple Watch if enough people want it.
- ecesena 9y agoWhere do you pull data from? I'll definitely try this app, I've built my own super-simple dashboard [1] for the same reason, with data pulled from kraken. [1] http://priceeth.github.io/ http://priceeth.github.io/
- mikehotel 9y agoThe app credits https://www.cryptocompare.com/ https://www.cryptocompare.com/ for the data.
- gaetanrickter 9y agoI bought my first crypto too. It was a lot harder than I thought, here's a helpful guide if anyone is interested https://medium.com/@simonwintersf/the-worlds-most-simple-guide-how-to-participate-in-an-ico-ba41c2790f7a https://medium.com/@simonwintersf/the-worlds-most-simple-gui...
- saurik 9y ago(The order of the buttons is shown to be "1M 1H 1D", but they are actually "1H 1D 1M". You can even see this in the screenshot on the website: 1M is selected, but clearly that is one hour worth of information.) (edit: It just occurred to me that maybe it is trying to say "break down the information into minutes, hours, and days" instead of "show me information for an hour, a day, or a month"... that's confusing.)
- andreygrehov 9y agoOne relatively unknown feature of the iPhone's Stocks app is the support of ETHUSD, BTCUSD and LTCUSD pairs.
- thefalcon 9y agoTIL; thank you.
- madeofpalk 9y agoI'm assuming this is just from the underlying API (Yahoo Finance?) supporting those idents, rather than Stocks itself?
- andreygrehov 9y agoCorrect. Same pairs will also work in the macOS's Stocks widget[1], which is driven by the same API. [1] https://ibb.co/d7Meab https://ibb.co/d7Meab
- electic 9y agoIt is funny, this is the first thing I did but I found two big problems: 1. The data is delayed or it is pulling from one exchange. 2. The graph on stocks isn't too great. 3. Not all the coins are covered. 4. The news, it turns out, doesn't work too well for crypto. There is a huge community factor: - There are publications. - There are developers - There are government developments. So to capture all that, you need a richer set of sources to filter through.
- coryl 9y agoWidget would be great. For some reason hitting the 1D button is very spotty.
- nopit 9y agoK. Now get https for your site. edit: downloaded, opened, tapped eth, scrolled down to see news and the app crashes. uninstalled. to the dev: it was on iOS.
- baccredited 9y agoDoes any app just show your portfolio and its value on the home screen? That's what I'm really looking for
- electic 9y agoThere is a portfolio feature coming that will show gain loss and it will work across multiple currency pairs as well. So for example, you can buy XMR <> BTC, or ETH <> USD and it will do all the math and figure out the gain loss in the fiat of your choice. We are working on it.
- pololee 9y agodownloaded, opened and clicked the top-rigth +, crashed, uninstalled. on iOS 11.0.1
- electic 9y agoHi, thanks for letting me know. I saw the crash report. A fix will be in 1.3.
- sxates 9y agoAre Crypto Coin Portfolio apps the new Weather apps? Seems like a new one comes out every day.
- rezashirazian 9y agoLove the app, but did you really need to apply PornHub's look and feel?
- sqlcook 9y agoNice looking app! What did you use for the charts?
- electic 9y agoHi, There is a open source project here: https://github.com/Herb-Sun/OKKLineSwift https://github.com/Herb-Sun/OKKLineSwift but I had to fix a ton of issues to get it to work with multiple currencies at the same time.
- j_s 9y agoAre these fixes open source? Obviously with the MIT license the choice is entirely yours.
- asasidh 9y agoBlockfolio Coinbase CoinCap I use all three. Will give this a shot if there is something useful that I am missing
- wyred 9y agoThe data for LTC doesn't seem to load. All the other default 3 cryptocurrencies loaded.
- programmarchy 9y agoTapping the Apple icon in mobile safari opens a blank page for me instead of going to the App Store.
- parski 9y agoDid you make the skeleton views for labels yourself? They look great.
