What's does the rest of Pause For's 2019 look like? A lot of work! You may remember that our biggest goal right now is releasing Pause For on Android so everyone can enjoy it. You also may remember that was supposed to be done already, which brings us to...

The Kin Migration The Android release has been delayed because of the migration to the new Kin blockchain. If you're from the Kin community, you already know all about this, but just to make sure we're all on the same page: Kin is a cryptocurrency dedicated to helping developers create user-focused experiences. You can buy Kin on cryptocurrency exchanges; that Kin is known as "Kin 1." The Kin you earn in Pause For is currently what's known as "Kin 2." The reasons for this are too complicated for this email, but the Kin Foundation has now found a way to merge the two blockchains, creating "Kin 3" which will encompass Kin 1 and 2, and we'll never have to deal with the confusion again. Kin will be Kin. But before that happens, everyone needs to migrate to Kin 3. The Kin Foundation has set up software to help the apps using Kin 2 migrate, and we're currently working with them to get that software integrated into Pause For. Once that's done, you'll get an app update. The next time you open the app, you may see "migrating..." for a few seconds while we log you in, and then you can keep using Pause For exactly like before! You don't have to do anything different. So what does that have to do with Android? The Android Alpha We have an alpha version of Pause For Android completely built. But if we were to release it now, all our new Android users would also be on Kin 2. Which means hundreds more people to migrate over to the new blockchain, and two apps to rebuild to use the new technology. Right now it's more important for us to build a better Pause For experience than rush out an Android app that will need to be majorly rewritten to work with Kin 3 within the first few months. In Summary Android Pause For is coming soon. We don't have a specific date yet as it depends on the Kin migration. Once we get migrated and release Android, things will really start to pick up. We have a lot of new features in the works that we think you'll really like, some new charities you can support, and a few bug fixes too. ;) As always, we deeply appreciate your support. Feel free to reach out any time, we'd love to hear from you about what we could do better! Sam
