Introducing CoinAlarm - Receive Push Alarm / Price Alert for Every Coin on All Exchanges (Obviously, Steem is available!)

Hi, everyone. I’m part of a small team that helped develop CoinAlarm. CoinAlarm is an app for checking prices and receiving real-time price alerts for all cryptocurrencies currently in the market, on every exchange they’re traded.

This is CoinAlarm

We wanted an app we would all want to use as cryptocurrency investors. So we made an app that provided what we wanted: a price alert so we wouldn’t have to be glued to our desktops/smartphones, a chatroom so we could share information, etc- all in a neat interface.

WHY THE (Belated) INTRODUCTION?
When we launched CoinAlarm in May 2017, we didn’t expect an overwhelming response. We’re all investing in cryptocurrencies, and enthusiasts of the cryptocurrency market. We were frustrated that it was so difficult to track real-time price of many, many altcoins. CoinAlarm was, in a way, a “personal project”.

Amazingly, we were overwhelmed by the response. Many users were saying CoinAlarm was extremely convenient, and they were posting positive reviews. There were even reviews (https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@dogeking/4-essential-tools-to-help-you-succeed-in-cryptocurrency) here on Steemit, (who are, I believe a tough crowd to please in the very best way : ) ) that recommended our app. And they were what made us want to do better!
Because so many people were saying good things about our app, we felt inadequate for not presenting people with a proper guide on how to use CoinAlarm before them. we had to do something to provide CoinAlarm users a guide on how to use all the features to their advantage, and also wanted to present the app to people who might need it. So this is the CoinAlarm team’s review/advise on how to use CoinAlarm, and our ‘proper’ introduction of our app.

WHAT DOES COINALARM DO?
first thing you should know; CoinAlarm does not provide a wallet. Hence, we don’t require anything related to your transactions. we don’t collect or track personal information. If we do collect anything in the future, we will ask. Now all I’ve said should be obvious, but since there were cases it wasn’t, I’m just stating the facts.
CoinAlarm has 5 main features (and we’re still adding more)

1. Price/ Exchange Volume Push Alarm/ Alert

2. Widget/Notice to track real-time price easily

3. Price Buy/Sell thresholds

4. Arbitrage opportunities between exchange

5. the spam-free chatroom

Also, CoinAlarm is completely free with no ads to disturb you at all. All we ask is you leave us your feedback when you give our app a try, so we can continue to make our app more useful to Steemit users and anyone else interested in the cryptocurrency market!

We’ve also updated our Android version just today, and there’s another major update with new features coming up next week for both Android & iOS. But more on that later, let’s talk about the existing features.

HOW TO NAVIGATE

This is the first page of CoinAlarm. You can add coin info/alarm here, or go to the chat room, or go to settings where you can contact us or change your nickname or the language. 7 languages are available on CoinAlarm (English, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian) at the present. (If there’s a language you want added, tell us and we’ll work on translating the app.)

If you choose to Add Coin/info alarm

1. Price Alarm
This is where you set an alert for a your target price. If you want, you can set a push alarm, notice on notification board/lockscreen, ringtone.

You choose the coin for your alarm, the standard currency to see the value of the coin (you can choose BTC as well as fiat currencies), then you choose an exchange that supports the coin & fiat you chose.
And now, you can see the current value & trade volume of your coin!
You can set your starting price to see how the price changes from it. Then, choose your target price as a number, or a percentage change (for example, you can set an alert for a 5% change from your starting price.)
Last of all, choose a price tracking cycle (how often the app will refresh the price), a shorter cycle may consume more battery.

If you wish to receive one, you can choose the name of the alarm and the ringtone. you can choose any ringtone from your phone or make it silent. There are also additional options, such as receiving a ringtone in silent mode, receiving alarms every 5% change, receiving a notice on the notification center/ lock screen.

You’ll be able to check the alarms you have like this!

2. Volume Alarm

This is where you set an alert for a certain target volume. You can navigate the page the same way as the price alarm.

3. Market depth

In Market depth, you can see the Price Buy/Sell thresholds, the peaks and valleys in a price chart to decide when to buy/sell.

4. Price difference between exchanges

This is where you compare the price between exchanges, and if there is arbitrage opportunities

you can share info on bitcoins and other coins in the chatroom.


You can also quote current price, market depth, price difference, or answer someone’s questions by addressing the person @nickname.
