Please post review. Very interesting if that works.

I added a detailed GUI description.
The screenshots are from my test system and are real values. The only thing I photoshoped are the red numbers  .

Still you have to be lucky. I started my test system in March 2016 and got an annual interest for STR of 36% which is very good. If you start know the lend market for STR is not really worth mentioning so it's very hard to give an accurate performance rating for this app. And I do not want to exaggerate the possibilities to much.
Rates of ~40% are possible with some coins but I think the realistic value lies somewhere between 2%-5% which is way more than a bank will offer you now.

Most important the king of cryptocurencies BTC is hovering around 5.6% at the moment.

Just downloaded, what a simple and easy to use interface!
I'll hopefully get more time to try this out in the coming days.
Great work swtrse

hello.

is there any way to get this running on windows 7 or linux?

hello.

Since this is a windows store app, it will not run on windows 7.
.Net Core is available for Linux so it could run, but I do not know if the WinRT API is implemented in Linux yet or will be. So my guess is that it most likely will not run.
There is my fist test Version based on .Net 4.0 that will run on windows 7 and linux (with Mono) even iOS (with Mono) but there is no way to control releases or differ between Free-Version and Full-Version so I will not release this any time soon.

New Version 1.2.12.0

Today I uploaded an new Version to the Store. My understanding is that the store will signal the update as soon as it is published and the app got updated.
The part I do not know is if the settings will be persisted, at least I hope so.

What is new:

Windows Universal Apps are a pretty new concept for me. So I learned that an app could be suspended by the Operating System. This is bad since while suspended no timer or event whatsoever will be fired. So there will be no lending while the application is suspended. Since an active debugging Session is preventing the process to be suspended I only got aware of that fact after testing the store version without the debugger attached.
Well I learned my lesson and found a way around it. This way is called "Background Tasks". The only downside is that a Background Task will be executed only every 15 Minutes. A shorter period of time is not possible. On the other side this "Background Tasks" works even if the application is suspended.

The new behavior of the application will be

• when in foreground (application window visible) lending will be checked every minute
• when in background (application minimized or screen is locked) lending will be checked ever minute, till the OS decides to suspend the application
• when suspended lending will be checked ever 15 minutes, till the OS decides to resume the application or the user interacts with the application and makes the window visible again

One other thing.
The crash statistic showed me that 100% of the crashes are happens on an XBox One.
Since I have no XBox One to test I can only guess what the problem is. I changes some code at the part were the crashes happens. I hope this will get rid of it.
It would be very useful If someone with an XBox One could file a ticket what exactly happens shortly before the crash or if there is any additional information on the screen when the crash happens.

Thanks for the info. and quick updates to the app to improve it's functionality.

Setting up is quick and easy, and the UI is very simple to understand.

Thanks

The Paid Version comes without the AdBanner at the top and with no popup at startup. To be fair AdBanners will not be visible if there is no Ad to show, with on a smartphone is most of the time. So if you will only use the smartphone for monitoring and do the lending manually there is absolutely no need to buy the full version. The free version and full version are feature identical. The only real difference here lies in the lending algorithm.

Of course you can visit Poloniex an do the lending yourself. The App does this for you 24/7. Since every second your coins are not lend is a "loss" to you.

This is really great work, Swtrse! It is very ideal for lending automation, in a simple and hassle-free way. Glad to see that you are a good supporter of MUE, in order to help make it a very usable crypto currency for the masses. Once the app is released, I'm pretty sure that it will be widely used by many MUE enthusiasts, like me. I wouldn't mind paying for the full version in order to help support the development of this exciting app.

Nevertheless, I'm looking forward for more exciting updates about the app.

Is there anyone who could explain how this is working?
Lending MUE's from bittrex to poloniex. Lender's balance is reducing in this case?
How get the lender paid for this service? Are the lended coins forever gone?
Thank you :-)

Hi, it's really simple

You open a Poloniex account, and deposit into your "lending" account.
You open a Bittrex account, and deposit a minimum of 100,000 MUE.
You download the app and set up the APIs.
That's it.

Poloniex lending is for only a certain number of coins, so decide which coins you want to lend on Poloniex, and deposit those.
Why not just start with BTC to make things simple for you.

Since there is no Mue lending market at Poloniex there is know way to lend MUEs. you MUEs won't be touched. You only need MUE to get the application starting.

How get the lender paid for this service? Are the lended coins forever gone?
Thank you :-)

New Version 1.2.14

There are some minor updates, most of them only affects the user interface.

What is new:

In some cases the timezone of the computer clock was not taken into account correctly. This is fixed now. This affects mostly the user interface and in one case the computing logic of how long an offer will be active before it will be canceled.
In some other cases the number format that is chosen in windows 10 settings was ignored, now the numbers are shown considering these settings.

[Swtrse]

A new Version is on the way. I updated the first post to reflect the new behaviors.

Some features of Version 1.2.15 seems like they do nothing but have significant changes in the background to prepare the application for the next features I will implement as soon as I find the time.

Features to come
* Applications on different devices will synchronize some Values so that every device will show the same Summary Info Data for a Coin.
* The application will be able to upload coins to the lending account so that the annual interest will not be affected by coin uploads any more.
