## What is Veida?

Veida is the hunting map for your team.

Map your hunting ground once: stands with shooting sectors, boundaries, trails, parking and areas to stay out of. Everyone on the team sees the same map, and it is always the one that applies — no paper copies, no "which stand did you say?".

ON YOUR STAND
• Mark yourself ready with one tap. The hunt leader sees who is standing where.
• Share your position with the team while the hunt is on, and turn it off afterwards.
• Navigate to your stand: the hunt leader draws the way in, and you follow it checkpoint by checkpoint.
• Distance rings around you — judging distance in the forest is hard, and distance decides whether you shoot.

THE GAME
• Log sightings, tracks, wounded animals and harvests where you stand.
• A wounded animal alerts the whole team at once.
• Harvests count automatically against the team's quota.

THE WEATHER
• Wind and weather for each stand, four periods a day, two days ahead — the wind shifting through the day decides whether a stand is usable.
• Slide the wind layer over the map up to two days ahead.

THE HUNT
• Plan hunting days, assign stands, or draw them at random.
• Hunting periods where the team answers Yes/Maybe/No before the hunts are planned.
• Chat with the team, about a hunt, or one-to-one.

Maps from the Norwegian Mapping Authority in Norway, OpenStreetMap elsewhere.

PRIVACY
Your position is shared only when you turn sharing on, and only with your team. It is not stored unless you turn on the track log — and that log is deleted two days later. A route is the most revealing thing an app can know about a person.

Veida is free. You can try the whole app without signing up: a made-up hunting team shows how everything looks.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.10 — 2026-10-07

Navigate with the screen off: the distance and an arrow to your target are shown on the locked screen, so the phone can stay in your pocket.
The phone tells you when you reach a checkpoint, arrive, or go the wrong way.
The GPS rests more while you navigate, depending on how far there is to go.

### 1.0.9 — 2026-10-06

Location sharing uses much less battery: the GPS rests between updates, and your position is sent every two minutes by default.
If the phone closes Veida while you are sharing your location, sharing carries on anyway.
Below 20 % battery, your position is sent every five minutes.
"New hunt" is a single button, and the hunt gets one session per day with the time already filled in.
Guides show the hunt leader and the hunter step by step what to do.

### 1.0.8 — 2026-10-02

A number on the Veida icon shows what you haven't read.
Messages show the name and text right on the locked screen.
A busy team chat gives one notification, not ten.
When you are at your stand, notifications arrive silently. Only alarms about injured animals and dogs come through.

### 1.0.7 — 2026-10-01

The session on your lock screen and in the Dynamic Island: your stand, how many are out, and "I'm ready" or "Mark me finished" without unlocking. The hunt leader can extend the session from there.
Trap-check and "session past its time" reminders now arrive without coverage — the phone keeps them itself.
Answer right from the notification: extend or end the session, mark the trap as checked, mark yourself ready or finished, say yes or no to a hunt, and reply to private messages.
Dog mode: the bark alarm listens with the screen off, so the dog's phone can sleep in the harness.
Press and hold the Veida icon: ready, sighting, harvested animal and dog mode.
Buttons in the "Hunting day" widget, and Veida in Control Center.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-10-01

Photos: add photos to harvested animals, tracking searches, sightings, stands and map pins — take one with the camera or pick one from your library. The location inside the photo is removed.
Location sharing stops by itself when the hunt is over for you, and the background location with it.
The alert when you reach your stand only applies while you share your location during a hunt.
When a new version has been downloaded, the app tells you, and you can restart right away.
Entries made without coverage finish sending while the app is in the background.
