Hellllooooo! Guess what? My iPhone SE during testing suddenly decided without me setting itā¦to set that weird button setting in accessibility after an update to the phone.
Crazy!
It wasnāt youā¦I believe it was apple!
I just completed the iOS version of messenger!
Just need to add it to Hortus iOS.
Android Hortus already has it integrated on my buildsā¦once both are integrated I am submitting them both to the beta testers!
This is the biggest update/upgrade yet!
I am truly proud of this one!
Android Hortus with Messenger:

The messaging looks on point. This has become a well developed app.

You shouldnāt have felt bad @Krista ā¦this was an issueā¦and I need to learn about iOS.
You found an issueā¦I am still greatful.
Just finished adding the Messenger to the main Hortus Toolbox on Android and now just completed iOS versionā¦ going to test with my four test devices, and my wifeās phone for a bitā¦once happy with everythingā¦I am submitting to Google and Apple to beta testers!
I have one Easter egg in the messenger app so farā¦adding two more.
Once in beta testingā¦all users will hopefully participate in a race to find the Easter eggs and get free seeds from ILGM!
The first three people to find an Easter egg(one per person) I will submit this names to @Olaf.ILGM for the seed packs. I felt this was better than a random drawingā¦and more fun.
Stay tunedā¦ Iāll be posting here as well as starting the beta tester team emails once moreā¦with the IOS team folded in.
Thank you all for your help and support!

Easter Egg #3 with audio:
I need to work on the rooms/level designā¦just threw a few together.
And the ambient music must be replaced unless Ice Nine Kills gives me permission to use their song in the app; I have sent the message inquiring about itā¦waiting on a reply.
@Budbrother @kaptain3d @SausageMahoney @Grimman78 hence the other conversation about Wolfenstein 3d!

I was discussing your app and was thinking about an optional pin setup that would brick the app if wrong one entered like 3 times. Itās an option for someone like me who has grown through the times of never write incriminating crap down. ILGM used to be my safe place.

I was considering an option like thatā¦tap a secret place a bunch of times to erase all databasesā¦which would clear all data and reset the app.

Still have to secure the app from opening to just anybody. Pin GPS tagged to chosen location? 3 attempt bricking with quick emergency brick hidden pattern 
Just thinking like in custody but need safety. Auto destruct fake distress pin reset option? Theyād rather burry you under the jail round here.

Been thunking on this @Budbrother ā¦
I am going to add a thingā¦
The option to enable a password is built in already.
Fyiā¦law enforcement cannot force a user to enter their password, however the supreme Court Fing ruled that fingerprint sensors or facial recognition doesnāt qualifyā¦and law enforcement can use them.
What I am going to doā¦is:
If a person has the password option enabled, and if they then enter āftpā three times in a row into the password field rather than their custom password setupā¦it will reset the app to default and clear all databases of data.
Sound good?
The Hide & Seek game is almost readyā¦just need to mess with the map layouts; creating a map editor/creator app to help me design the maps to help make it more fun. Hope to have that done quickly so I can make the maps better and more funā¦then releasing to beta testers.
My wife has been helping me troubleshoot itā¦ initially she was reluctant and frustratedā¦she hates 3d fps type gamesā¦but after listening to her complaintsā¦I made changesā¦her opinion has drastically changedā¦she now has fun playing itā¦even without map changesā¦but a few maps are very easy and boringā¦need to update them.
I added yesterday: the ability to stand, crawl, or lay downā¦also the Hider can see both their own and the Seekers positional arrows on their mapā¦but the Seeker only sees their own positional arrow in their own map.

Itās so easy to defeat facial and the fingerprints somewhat simple so I run code with 10x wrong pin delete phone.
Do pix or other still show in downloads folder? Thats a common f up that keeps me away from ones Iāve tried.

Pics and received stuff lives in the database until the user chooses to āsave attached to deviceā
So my thing will just clear the app of evidence so it cannot be used against you. I do not have location or GPS enabled for security and privacy reasons. Google can be subpoenaed for gps and location information. I always have that disabled in my Google account settingsā¦same with history.

Things happened todayā¦
I use a turn server and a signal server to bounce signals off of depending on the situationā¦
today I received an email that said I was out of server timeā¦
I was allā¦wtf!
I am only testing with very little data transferring and # of connectionsā¦
soā¦found they changed their free plansā¦sh!t
I thought and thoughtā¦then thunk a littleā¦
Solution!
F them server companies right in their ears!
I created my own Linux servers to bounce the signals off of!
Fully setup and tested alreadyā¦kept the free ones as backups in the app in case I do a server reboot or updatesā¦users wonāt loose connection.
If only the Ai issues were this easy and free to change and implement! But I am going to get there!
Now that I donāt have to worry at all about thatā¦I am much more confident this will work.
I may change my home Internet to spectrum business to ensure no issuesā¦I talked with a spectrum tech support galā¦she said because I use my own router and only their cable modemā¦they cannot see the traffic at all to tell if I am running web servers at all. But I think the spectrum business might be more robustā¦ Iāll be making calls tomorrow.
Using home Internet in this way is actually against the user use policy.

I hope to have a beta out soon!
I created a map creator and editor app for my phone that I am using to design maps and make my originals more fun.
Once I get the android hide and seek perfectā¦then I just have to add it to the iOS versionā¦then after a bit more testing on my endā¦out to beta!
I am too anal, I donāt leave many bugs for the testers. It mostly ends up being how things look on specific devices. Functionally I am not sure there have been any major issuesā¦other than the beginning corruption of save data in one of the first betasā¦ Still sorry about that @Bentstick
itās been pretty smooth since.
