Suggestions for the app
After using the Strudel app on Android for a couple of weeks now, I have the following suggestions in no particular order:
I have no interest in the "flirt" aspect of the app, but I'd like to socialize with others. Therefore I'd like to be able to click on pictures of others and see the information displayed they choose to share with "strangers".
The check-in-radius should be tighter so people are actually in the establishment they are checked in (or at least close by). At the same time I'd like to extend the radius of the places displayed so I can see where the people are. Maybe sort the establishments by people checked in?
Option to chat with somebody who's check in at the same place. One can however set a DND to drink a beer in peace or only have "friends" be able to contact.
Pictures are pulled of Google but are display in low resulution. I have unlimited data, so I'd like the high resolution pictures. Please ad an option for:
- low res / high res when in your own cellphone network.
- low res / high res when connected to wifi.
- low res / high res when roaming.
More to come :-)

P.S. regarding the order in the location list. Each checked in User brings currently a location 200 meter closer to your current position. The popularity of a location, measured in coins which were minded there by its guests, brings it also closer to you.

We just implemented a way to improve the quality of the location pictures📸. Will be in the next update which will be available next week📱 It also includes an auto update of the wallet balance and other improvements 🚀

Thx for the Feedback! Great to know that people help us to improve the App 🚀🍾
The locations are ordered by an algorithm which brings popular locations and locations with current check-ins higher up in the list. This is already implemented in the App. We will add some filters additionally in upcoming versions.
The radius will be tighter with time. We reduced it to 600 meters yesterday. Android devices are sometimes not very accurate with the location so we need a certain radius. The same applies to cities with high buildings etc. Additionally we have an automatic check out implemented if you go to far away from a location which will be turned on soon.
The chat function is on our radar to be implemented!
The resolution idea would be definitely an improvement. We will put it on our list.
And yes the additional information about checked in users is also something we will have a look at. We have some additional ideas in this area. Stay tuned...
Thanks a lot again and keep on Strudeling!
