Updates

bluuplabs is Alive and Kicking ✨

9 May 2025

A quick update from BluupLabs HQ (aka my desk): yes, I'm still here, still building, still tinkering, and very much alive.

BluupLabs has always been a one-person operation, and over the past few months I’ve been hard at work behind the scenes. While stock has been a little limited recently, that’s because I’ve been focusing on bug fixes, improvements, and long-awaited feature updates — particularly for the Flask.

🧪 The Flask now lets you arrange your NFC tags in any order, giving you full control over how your collection is displayed. Even better, the tag library now updates dynamically, so you’ll no longer need to wait for app releases to get the latest formats — it all happens in the background.

On the app side, I’m working on getting the Android app back in the Play Store. That process has become a lot more complex due to Google’s updated policies, but I’m navigating the red tape and will keep you posted. In the meantime, alternative distribution methods are being explored.

👨‍💻 I also started a new job recently, which has meant fewer updates while I settled in. Now that I’m in a good rhythm, development is picking up again.

If you’ve got feature requests, ideas, or feedback, I’d love to hear them. BluupLabs exists to make useful, quirky tech for curious minds, so tell me what would make your experience better.

Thanks for your support, patience, and enthusiasm. More soon.
