Title: Pool Stats iPhone App
Post by: martinr123 on December 28, 2013, 04:12:26 PM
Hi,

I'm quite new to all the mining stuff, but I was thinking about writing an iPhone app for monitoring pool statistics and I just wanted to do a quick "survey" on what you guys think.

Initial features I have in mind:

* Show confirmed/unconfirmed balance
* Show current round/block estimate
* Support all MPOS-based pools (the web interface that about 90% of pools seem to use)
* Support ypool.net, multipool.us, miningpool.co stats
* Nice UI
* Free on the App Store - Donations welcome

Additional features for a second version:
* Worker info
* Exchange Rates from cryptsy, coinedup, bter

Let me know what you think!
Martin

Not sure if you're aware, but Apple appears to have a major downer on anything Bitcoin or cryptocurrency, lot of very worthy apps booted off the app store.

@Flashman: Yes I'm aware, but I can't find a reason why they should reject a simple app that shows stats from various sites. And there already are a few coin-related apps in the store, so I figured I'd give it a shot :) Would love to know if more people think this would be something useful.
