Project Description
I need an Android-based tool that automatically snaps up bargains in Savage Survival’s in-game auction house. My main goal is hands-free, real-time auto-bidding: I enter the item name, item type (or a wildcard), set a ceiling price, and let the app sit in the background placing bids the instant my criteria are met. If you can read the auction feed directly, great; if screen parsing is the only route, keep it fast and reliable so I don’t miss last-second listings.
Core requirements
• Native Android build or a cross-platform stack that compiles cleanly to Android APK.
• Secure login or token handling so my game credentials stay private.
• Simple UI to add, edit, pause, or delete snipe rules.
• Background service that polls frequently without draining the battery.
• Audible or push notification confirming each successful bid (no need for full price-alert or bid-history dashboards right now, but please architect with those features in mind for a later phase).
• Clean, well-commented code and a short setup README so I can sideload or publish through my own Play Console account.
Acceptance criteria
– I point the app at my account, create a rule (item + max price), lock my phone, and the app wins at least one test auction while I’m offline.
– CPU, memory, and network use stay reasonable during a 30-minute continuous snipe session.
– Source compiles without warnings in Android Studio (or your specified toolchain) and ships as a signed release APK.
If you’ve built auction bots, mobile game helpers, or similar automation on Android, I’d love to see a quick demo video or APK sample with your bid.
