## What is Pikgeon?

"Wait, did I already send this one?"
"When did this friend last receive a card?"
"There are still people who haven't gotten this one!"

If these questions are taking up precious brain space, welcome -- you've found your fellow Pikmin Bloom obsessives.

Pikgeon was built so your brain can focus on more important things (like hatching eggs while you walk).

24-hour rolling cooldown, tracked automatically. See at a glance who you can send to now and who needs a little more time. No more mental math.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.34 — 2026-08-09

• Friends can now have their own photo — spot who's who at a glance in the friend list, merge picker, and gallery filter
• Send cooldown corrected to 24 hours, so a friend no longer shows as ready while the game still refuses
• Received postcards are now dated by the screenshot's capture time instead of the card's "Discovered on" date

### 1.33 — 2026-08-05

• Gallery gained a single-friend filter — narrow everything to one friend, map included
• Search now matches friend names too, and ignores case/accents in both records and gallery
• Restore Purchases now tells you exactly what happened — restored, not found, or failed — with steps to fix it

### 1.32 — 2026-07-02

A few Pikmin wandered off on the map — and took the app down with them. The engineers have led them back onto the right path.

• Fixed crashes in Map view and album import in certain situations, for better stability
• Smarter GPS coordinate recognition that reads even blurry numbers
• Settings now has a Privacy Policy entry and an ad-consent management shortcut

### 1.31 — 2026-06-13

The Pikmin learned to queue up for delivery — one whistle is now enough to log several postcards at once.

• New Batch Record sheet — from a postcard's detail page, log a sent postcard to multiple friends in one go, and create new friends inline without leaving the sheet.
• New Needs Attention status — when OCR reads a postcard but a required field is missing, the record is flagged so you can come back and finish it.
• GPS coordinates detected on the postcard now flow into the dedicated coordinate field, ready for Map view and exports.
• Recognition improvements — filtered the CLEARED badge, ignored the peek of the next card under the action button, and fixed a few watermark-region edge cases.

### 1.30 — 2026-05-27

Engineers herded a few wandering Pikmin out of the search bar.

• Friend name autocomplete in Add Record and Edit Record reacts instantly while you type, even on accounts with hundreds of friends
• When Photos access is off, save-to-Photos now offers a direct Open Settings shortcut instead of a vague Failed to save message
