Auctions got a big upgrade. When auctions are live, the auctions channel opens right into the live view. Swipe left or right to move between auctions and bid with one tap. Tap any sold auction to see the final price and full bid history. We also cut way down on notifications: when a batch of auctions goes live you get one alert instead of one for every auction. You can now see your points balance and full points history right from your profile, and signup tells you right away if a username is taken.

Introducing Points. Earn points on every Essential Reef store purchase and redeem them for corals, frozen food, phytoplankton, copepods, and more. Members earn double points. Track your progress toward your next reward right in the app. Raffles have opened up. You can now find and enter raffles across more channels, not just the members area. Your purchase history is more private. Your lifetime spend total is now hidden by default. Tap to reveal it whenever you want. Fixes and improvements. Messages you send now appear instantly, scrolling through long channels is smoother, and we fixed a few screens that would not scroll properly.

Raffles can now be closed early instead of waiting for the pool to fill, and everyone entered gets a notification when entries close. Cancelled raffles now show a reason. Also included: stability improvements so a single bad post can no longer take down the app, and fixes for crashes on some raffle cards.

Our biggest update ever. Photo albums: send up to 30 photos in one message. They display as a clean album grid, tap any photo to view full screen and swipe through. Live streaming leveled up: full screen video with chat overlaid on top, see how many people are watching, and admins can see who is in the stream. Streams are protected against screen recording with watermarks throughout. Reef Cam: a built in camera filter for blue reef lighting. Shoot your corals through an orange or yellow filter with adjustable intensity, no more holding a physical filter over your phone. Members can save filtered photos to their camera roll. My Tank 2.0: log your entire test session in one screen, see trend charts with your ideal ranges, set test reminders, and see mini trend lines right on your tank page. Plus smoother navigation, admin improvements, and reliability fixes throughout.

This is a big one. Live streaming is here: members can watch private live streams right inside their channels, with chat alongside the video. Only channel members can watch. Auctions got a major upgrade: quick bids confirm instantly, and if someone beats you to it, one tap rebids at the new price. Auto Bid lets you set a maximum and the app bids for you. Prices update live the moment anyone bids. Pinch to zoom on any auction, sale, or raffle photo to inspect every detail. @all mentions let admins and sellers notify a whole channel. Also in this release: smoother chat, better reliability when returning to the app, raffle improvements including a 40 second unclaim window, order tracking, payment reminders, and channel mute.

This update resolves an issue affecting message channel scrolling and improves overall stability.

This update brings major improvements to auctions and the marketplace. Auto-bidding: Set your maximum bid once and let the app bid for you up to your limit, so you never miss a win while you are away. Order tracking: Sellers can now mark orders as shipped with a tracking number or picked up in person, and buyers can see tracking details and copy them with a tap. Sales by buyer: Sellers can now view their sales grouped by buyer, making it easy to pull up everything a customer has purchased. Easier payments: Unpaid auction wins now show a clear reminder so you always know when you have an order to pay for. Performance: Channels and lists scroll faster and smoother throughout the app. Plus a range of bug fixes and stability improvements.
