This update focuses on reliability and polish. Here is what is included:

Android users on the internal test track will receive this update shortly. iOS is awaiting Apple review.

A major update that redesigns the entire app with a clean iOS native aesthetic and adds several new features to help you get the most out of ReadyPlayerOn.

• Complete UI redesign from the neon cyberpunk theme to a clean, modern iOS native look. Light grey backgrounds, white cards, system fonts.
• Full dark mode support across every screen. Follows your system preference or set it manually in Settings.
• New onboarding flow with a Pitch Screen, Before/After comparison, smart notification timing, and a 3-Day New Player Challenge.
• Email notifications for onboarding tips, milestones, weekly recaps, and re-engagement. All with per-category unsubscribe.
• App Store rating prompt after completing the 3-Day Challenge.
• Flag as inappropriate on Hype Board game cards for community safety.
• NSFW game filtering across all Hype Board tabs and the hero banner.

ReadyPlayerOn is now live on the App Store and available for Android internal testing on Google Play.

We built RPO because we were tired of switching between Steam, Discord, Xbox, and PlayStation just to see who was online. One app, every platform, one tap to play.

No chat. No DMs. No messages from strangers. Just simple push notifications between friends. Safe for teens, built for everyone.

Connect your platforms, find your friends, and start playing together.
