It's also on Google Play:

Thank you very much to all contributors.

How mobile releases work

All major mobile releases are organized by Milestones labeled with the release number. The 'Help Wanted' is added to any issue we feel would be okay for a contributor to work on, so look for that tag first! We do our best to answer any questions contributors may have regarding issues marked with that tag. If an issue does not have the 'Help Wanted' tag, that means staff will handle it when we have the availability.

The mobile team consists of one developer and one designer for both Android and iOS. Because of this, we switch back and forth for releases. While we work on one platform, the other will be put on hold. This may result in a wait time for PRs to be reviewed or questions to be answered. Any PRs submitted while we're working on a different platform will be assigned to the next Milestone and we will review it when we come back!

Given that our team is stretched pretty thin, it can be difficult for us to take an active role in helping to troubleshoot how to fix issues, but we always do our best to help as much as possible :) With this in mind, when selecting issues to work on it may be best to pick up issues you already have a good idea how to handle and test. Thank you for putting in your time to help make Habitica the best it can be!

Build Instructions

Config Files

1. Setup Habitica build config files by simply copying or renaming the example habitica files:

   habitica.properties.example to habitica.properties

   habitica.resources.example to habitica.resources

   You also need google-services.json. Download it from Firebase in the next step.

   Note: this is the default production habitica.properties file for habitica.com. If you want to use a local Habitica server, please modify the values in the properties file accordingly.

2. Go to https://console.firebase.google.com

   a. Register/Login to Firebase. (You can use a Google account.)

   b. Create a new project called Habitica

   c. Create two apps in the project: com.habitrpg.android.habitica and com.habitrpg.android.habitica.debug

   d. Creating each app will generate a google-services.json file. Download the google-services.json file from the second app and put it in \Habitica\ and \wearos\

   You can skip the last part of the app creation wizards (where you run the app to verify installation).

3. If using Android Studio, click Sync Project with Gradle Files. Update Android Studio if it asks you to update. Run Habitica.
