Hi Silvie, 👋

to be honest, I don't really use Catima very active as I only have only a few loyalty cards.
But I don't want miss it!

Thanks to your tireless development, your introduction of .pkpass for example and the fact that you keep the minimum requirements low, I can use Catima on my "normal" mobile for the "DeutschlandTicket" and also on my little "old bone" with Android 6.0, when I'm out for an outdoor trip and my "normal" cell phone is too bulky for that usecase.

Thanks for your great work! 👍

#Catima 2.35.0 is out!

This release lets you further tweak the barcode size in the fullscreen view and slightly improves barcode finding reliability when scanning or loading a barcode from an image or PDF file. It also fixes a crash when trying to load a pkpass file without a barcode in it.

Coming soon to an app store near you :)

Locked out of #Stocard? Considering switching to an app like #Catima? You may be able to still access your Stocard cards directly!

According to Italian video creator "IT Problem Solver", it seems Stocard's expiry is based on device time. So: change your phone's date, screenshot those barcodes, and add them to Catima! :) youtube.com/watch?v=hrsEiMjoQT…

Alternatively, if you have the patience and live in Europe, email support@stocardapp.com to ask for an export of your data and import it directly!

Are ther any #persian speakers on Mastodon who can help tell me if github.com/CatimaLoyalty/Andro… looks correct at all?

I have no experience with the language, barely know what it's supposed to look like, so I can't tell 😅

Thanks in advance for anyone willing to take a minute to look!

#Catima 2.34.5 is out!

This is a maintenance release that targets Android 15 and fixes a crash.

The app will look slightly uglier on some devices, due to Google's changes in how drawing over the system and navigation bar works. Sadly, supporting proper edge-to-edge requires extensive rewrites (help very welcome!), so I opted to at least ensure we target Android 15 before any deadlines.

Coming soon to an app store near you.

#catima 2.34.4 is out!

This reverts Catima to targetSdk 34 (Android 14) for now, to fix the UI regressions introduced in Catima 2.34.3.

It also includes the fixes in 2.34.3 and a new little feature to sort your cards by the "valid from" date, useful for things like train tickets.

TIL #Catima is apparently mirrored onto #RuStore through #Aptoide, or so someone reported: github.com/CatimaLoyalty/Andro…

Few problems with that: I have no control over the RuStore listing, nor do I control the Aptoide listing. Both may very well be malware.

It should go without saying: don't download apps from sketchy unofficial "app stores" and other APK download sites.

catima.app/ and github.com/CatimaLoyalty/Andro… link you to all the safe and supported download sources :)

Happy holidays to all who celebrate them!

I just released a minor Catima bugfix release: 2.34.2. This version fixes the archived/starred status being hard to see or even invisible when displayed on top of certain card images.

#Catima 2.34.1 is out!

This fixes a minor bug in Catima 2.34.0 where selecting an "invalid" pkpass file (corrupted/not actually pkpass) after choosing to open from Pkpass would cause the app to crash. Now, you just get a little message stating the file could not be read instead.

#Catima 2.34.0 is out!

This release adds support for #Passbook (#pkpass) files, commonly used for event tickets and more!

It also contains some other minor fixes and better handling of image thumbnails (especially transparent ones).

On the end-user side, this release probably doesn't look that different, but it contains some major code refactoring. It is also the first release with #Kotlin code in it.

It also contains some translation updates that were submitted between the last release and just now.

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to take another stab at implementing #Passbook (#pkpass) support in #Catima.

It's going okay but I'm having trouble hunting down test cases, especially test cases with localized strings.

Do you have any .pkpass file you're willing to share with me? If so, please send them to me and tell me if you're okay with me including them in Catima unit tests. Feel free to censor things before sending (but please tell me what you censored).

Thanks!

Catima 2.29.0 is out!

This release adds support for finding barcodes in PDF files[1] and dealing with multiple barcodes. It also properly colours the status bar during usage now.

As always, it's available on #GitHub, will soon be available on #IzzyOnDroid and will slowly roll out to other app stores.

#Catima 2.27.0 is out!

Honestly a fairly small release, mostly small UI tweaks and a minor bugfix. But that's fine, it's great when software updates are boring without major changes so there is nothing new to learn :)

Available on #GitHub right now, on #IzzyOnDroid within 24 hours and on other stores when they update (see the FAQ on catima.app for details).

Hope y'all enjoy it :)

#Catima 2.25.0 is out!

This release improves the barcode rendering code and supports allowing third party apps to read your cards after they request access, allowing #Gadgetbridge to work with Catima in their next release.

This feature is enabled by default as it requires apps to explicitly ask for access through Android permissions. However, if you feel certain you never want to allow other apps access to your cards at all, you can disable it in settings.

#Catima has reached 35k active users on #GooglePlay, holding fairly strong at a 4.6 star average. Pretty cool how it keeps growing.

As always, I have no stats for #FDroid as they do not track active installations.
