Since launching on iOS back in August, Echoes has been turning physical cities into decentralized, audio-anchored spatial maps on @solana.
Today, we took the next major step: Echoes has officially been submitted to Google Play. π€π²
π Expanding the Aural DePIN
Weβre bringing our physical-meets-digital audio network to every Android user:
π Anchor Sound: Drop raw street music, authentic voice memories, or local stories at exact GPS coordinates.
π‘ Proximity Radar: Walk your city. Get background alerts when you enter the 150m radius of a hidden audio node.
ποΈ AR Decryption: Open your camera, spot the floating amber pin in Augmented Reality, and trigger real-world playback.
β‘ On-Chain Spatial Mesh: Built on Solana for decentralized geospatial mapping and physical location verification.
The iOS community started mapping. Android is about to scale it.
The Google Play Store link drops as soon as Google approves the build.

echoes 1.12.4 ποΈ

Some places hold more than they show. π
A voice left on a street corner. A laugh by the river. A "thank you" whispered at the bus stop where it all started. That's what echoes are: little pieces of people, waiting where they happened.
Today's update is about making those moments easier to feel. β¨
π₯ The echoes people love most now glow warmer on the map, from soft orange to deep amber, like a light someone left on for you.
π On iPhone, echoes close to you look bigger and the ones far away fade into the distance. The map finally feels like the place it shows.
π» Need a quiet walk? Ghost mode now keeps you off other people's maps, even after you close the app. When you're ready to be found, you'll be there again.
π¬ A new echo and its post now share one conversation, so every like and every word lands in the same place.
πͺͺ Your name is yours: usernames are now unique.
π And "Nearby" finally means nearby, within 1 km.
Go for a walk. Leave something behind. Listen for what others left for you. π§

echoes 1.11.0 ποΈ

Comments on an echo can now be voice notes. You're standing where someone left a memory β typing back felt like the wrong gesture. So: hold the mic, say it, done. GIFs too, for when words aren't the point.
But the part I want to talk about is the one nobody will notice.
ββ The lock that wasn't locked ββ
Listening to an echo has always required an account. That's been true in the app since day one: tap play without signing in, you get the sign-in screen.
Except the audio files themselves were public. Anyone with the URL could fetch them β no account, no app. The rule existed in the interface and nowhere else.
Worse: echoes set to "friends only" had exactly the same problem. The database protected the ROW β who can see that an echo exists, where it is, who made it. It did not protect the FILE. A private echo's audio was one URL away from anyone.
Nobody exploited this. That's not the point. A promise you can't enforce isn't a promise, it's a decoration.
As of 1.11.0 the audio bucket is private. Playback goes through short-lived signed URLs, issued only to a signed-in account, and only for echoes that account is allowed to hear. The rule is now enforced where it can't be bypassed β not in the interface, in the database.
The cost is honest: a signed URL expires after an hour, so offline replay of something you heard yesterday is gone. Worth it.
ββ Also in this release ββ
βοΈ Verify your contact email with a 6-digit code. Unverified addresses aren't shown to anyone but you β because an unverified public email field is an impersonation tool. Put someone else's address on your profile and their mail becomes your mail.
π·οΈ Tag someone in an echo and they'll hear about the comments and likes on it too. It's their memory as much as yours.
β‘ Comments and likes now update live while you have an echo open, instead of appearing whenever you happened to reopen the panel.
π§ And the click sound is finally instant. It was rebuilding an audio player from scratch on every single tap β 96 times per screen's worth of buttons.
