What's new

Changes to the app and the website, newest first.

v0.1.15

New

  • Official records now opens as Eleutheria's Records directory: swipe between Diaspora and Africa, pick a country in the boxed selector, and read each desk inline with its source and verification state.

Improved

  • The What's new page on hounti.io now filters in place, the way Eleutheria's does: tap types to show or hide them, double-tap one to see only it.

Content

  • hounti.io now reads as a showcase: preparing your return file, the official My Afro Origins step, its fee and its stated timeline, in plain language.

v0.1.14

Fixed

  • Software updates now work end to end: one button checks, downloads with its progress inside the button, and opens the system installer.

v0.1.13

Fixed

  • The bottom toolbar bar's bark frame and frosted fade are visible again: a medium-accent border drawn over the flush buttons, with tinted frost steps around the bar.

v0.1.12

Fixed

  • The bottom toolbar buttons are now borderless and sit flush in the bar, the selected button reads light on dark, and the app background is white.

v0.1.11

Improved

  • Settings now follows Eleutheria's layout card for card, and every bottom-toolbar button is framed in bark with a frosted fade around the bar.

v0.1.10

Fixed

  • Settings now reports the version actually installed instead of a stale label, and the update check no longer offers an update that is already installed.

v0.1.9

Fixed

  • The FAQ in Help now opens each section in its own drawer, sized and framed the way Eleutheria does it.

v0.1.8

Content

  • Resources now explains DNA evidence and skin colour, appearance and belonging in longer guides, with cases by situation.
  • Resources now walks through the portal and its statuses, reported timelines by stage, and the full sequence from application to finalisation.
  • The FAQ now settles eight more worries on DNA percentages, appearance, portal stalls, upload quality and waiting times.

v0.1.7

Content

  • The FAQ in Help now answers twelve questions on eligibility, applying, documents, approval and travel, with reported experience labelled as such.

v0.1.6

Improved

  • Help now holds Resources and an FAQ, with diplomatic missions, the newsroom and travel advisories inside Resources.
  • The Timeline adds events by picking a kind from a bottom-sheet mosaic, and documents stay in the Vault.

Fixed

  • The update check reads the published download list properly, so a current install no longer claims it did not answer.

Content

  • Every directory row now names its source and says whether it has been verified yet.

v0.1.5

Fixed

  • A way in for testers is back while Google sign-in finishes being set up.

v0.1.4

Improved

  • The sign-in page now also lists Microsoft and Yahoo as coming soon; Google stays the way to sign in.

v0.1.3

Improved

  • The app now opens with feature pages and a sign-in page.

v0.1.2

Improved

  • The app opens straight into Vault, My file, Status and Learn.
  • hounti.io headings now set in Fraunces, with bark-edged boxes around its sections.

Content

  • A What's new page on hounti.io lists each release in plain language, newest first.

v0.1.1

New

  • hounti.io: download Hounti here, and read about the file it helps you prepare.

Fixed

  • The Android app opens on its own, with everything it needs already inside.

v0.1.0

New

  • Hounti for Android: prepare a Benin Afrodescendance citizenship file.
  • Vault, My file, Status and Learn: four clear sections, with Journeys, Tree and Timeline inside My file.
