Quick summary
Stonehiding is a free Android app that turns painted-rock hunting into a tracked, social pastime. You give each decorated rock a six-digit identifier, log it on a global map, then follow where it travels and who interacts with it.
Getting started
Install the app on an Android device, decorate a stone, and assign it a unique 6-digit code. Place the rock where others can find it, add its coordinates to the map, and the app will record its movements as people find and re-hide it.
Main capabilities
- Personalize each rock by attaching a photo, a custom title, and a short note explaining its purpose or backstory.
- Place stones on the shared map with their unique code, and access details such as the original painter and the stone’s movement history.
- Search for rocks nearby, explore the map to locate stones around the world, or browse finds in your immediate area.
- Send messages to other users, share a stone’s link on social networks, or request the code if a discovered rock doesn’t have one written on it.
- Receive alerts about fresh finds close to you, new activity (logs or likes) on your stones, and follow stones to watch future updates.
- View leaderboards and lists that highlight the most popular rocks and the most recent additions.
Community and sharing
The app fosters interaction by letting you follow other people’s stones, comment on logs, and propagate stones via links so they can continue their journeys beyond your local area.
