The list below is a summary of most updates, additions and fixes since the last update post, this is not an exhaustive list. Features appearing in the post below may not necessarily be in their final state and may change in subsequent updates.

It's been a busy month! We've just today hit 500 players, only 6 days since we celebrated 400 active players in a day which is truly incredible. Feature-wise we've seen the full release of the Google Play App, handling Subscriptions and payments via Google Play Billing, a brand new API and a ton of endpoints already available and being used (check out https://beeps.be/ one of our very first community-developed tools), new University courses, a ton of new events throughout the year and a calendar to display them and so much more.

Again a massive thank you to this amazing community, and the copious amount of feedback that's got us this far. Without further ado let's get on with the massive updates list for April!
