Topic: WatchMine (beta) - Mobile website for mining pool stats and bitcoin prices - page 3. (Read 10320 times)

Thanks for your patience and interest. I'm determined to get WatchMine working for you.

I have exactly the same type of phone as you. The difference is that I haven't gone to 4.3.3 yet. I'll upgrade tomorrow and see if I can replicate your results.

The most likely possibility is that for whatever reason something between your phone and my webhost has cached old versions of the WatchMine files. Try this:
1. Home. Double Tap home button and kill Safari and/or the WatchMine process
2. Home > Settings App > Safari > Clear cache
3. Try WatchMine again (You have to re-setup WatchMine so have apikeys handy)

It's possible your ISP is using a "transparent proxy/cache" for which the only cure is time. I'll add no-cache headers to the data downloads tomorrow which might help the situation.

If that doesn't work then: What would help me out is if you can send me your prefs. Do so via email or PM.
Disclosure: Those prefs contain your apikeys which will give me read-only access to your stats. I promise to not do anything unethical with them and will delete them once I have solved your problem.
I made the following link for you to get view your locally stored prefs:

Hmm, not sure what I'm doing wrong.  I'm still stuck on that screen.  Every time I try to do anything - add miner, exchange etc it just has that screen that I posted earlier.  I killed safari and also rebooted the phone.  It's an iPhone 3gs with ios 4.3.3 if that info is helpful.  This app is just what I've been looking for - I'd really like to get it working  

I did go in via firefox on my desktop PC and was able to set up all of the miners and a market so I'm not sure what the deal is with my phone. 

Any ideas of what I can try?

BTCGuild support has just gone live. Will work on Bitclockers tomorrow.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll fix that this evening. I suspect the easiest thing to do will be to set a sensible timeout (maybe 12 seconds) for the websites to answer before timing out. In the long-term I'll make the badges show results as soon as their individual data comes in.

EDIT: I've set the max timeout for getting stats to 12 seconds.

Yep, I'll get on the right away. Gimme a few days.

Nice!  Just some feedback:  I'm trying to add slush and (it's apparently down at the moment) so it get's in a state where you have a screen with a spinny thing like it's thinking or something.  I'm unable to get out of it.

Pretty cool!  I'd love to see support added for these pools:
BTCGuilld: http://www.btcguild.com/
Bit Clockers: http://www.bitclockers.com/

Thanks!

I've just added Swepool support. Also a few other minor bug fixes and code refactoring to improve things.

I glad you like the site. Let me know if you'd like anything added or changed. Chur bro!

Very nice!

I wrote a similar web-app for private use, no need to publicize it now! (Yours looks better )

Good to see another New Zealander in the bitcoin scene too!

Very nice site!  Well done!

Hi, I've created a mobile website for tracking Bitcoin related stats while on the go. I've been using this myself for a couple of weeks and it's time the public got a look.

WatchMine: http://watchmine.infudu.com

Features

• See important stats all in one screen
• Javascript and localStorage based - nothing is stored on the webserver
• Mining pool stats for: bitclockers, bitcoinpool, btcguild, btcmine, deepbit, slush & swepool (open for requests)
• Market data from exchanges including MTGOX, TradeHill and many more
• Price data (weighted price)
• Optimised for iPhone/iTouch (tested on Android)

Many future features are planned. Add your requests in this thread - it will help me prioritise. I accept bounties.

Money
I might add premium features to WatchMine later but the basic stats viewing function will always remain free. I need your help to do this so please tip me a few bitcents. I accept bounties for feature requests and can even customize a personal version of WatchMine just for you.

License
WatchMine and its code is copyright 2011 E. Turner (me). You are welcome to use WatchMine and view the underlying code, but you may not copy it. This site represents a non-trivial investment of my time and skill.

Getting Started
The default screen lists some stats that might not suit you. Click the Edit button and remove anything you don't want. Then click the Finish button. After that click the Add button and start adding stats the stats that you do want. Each stat is added onto the end of the list. Clicking Edit will allow you to re-order stats using up/down arrows.

App Mode
This site runs best as a full screen app: On iOS devices you can click the middle button on the bottom toolbar in the Safari web-browser. You'll then get an option to "Add to Home Screen" - click this and WatchMine will appear just like any other app. Cool huh.

Privacy & Security
I take your privacy and security seriously.
Only preference data is stored on your local device (using localStorage). This data is only transmitted to my webserver when needed but is not stored on my server. There is basically nothing harmful that I could do with the miner pool apikeys anyway because they provide read-only access to data.
All client-side code can be viewed using the usual web developer tools. I'm prepared to let prominent community members view and verify that the server-side code is doing nothing malicious if people want that.

Your btc tips, bounties and feedback will all encourage me to improve this mobile app further.
