[Discussion] Huge Pocket PSN update is almost here!
EDIT: There seems to be some confusion. These updates are for the website. All new code and content is pushed to site first to test scale and stability and then they're added to the app.
This post is just to give y'all a heads up about a huge update coming to Pocket PSN in the next couple weeks. Just doing some backend and polish now.
I've been trucking out a sh*t ton of code and creating a lot of new stuff for Pocket PSN.
In addition to the new, there is a bunch of quality of life changes coming too.
Check out some the details below that will be coming soon.
SPEED TAKES PRECEDENT
Let's be real, the current site is slow. Especially when you start viewing really popular games such as Grand Theft Auto. Hell, the charts and leaderboards don't even load for that game that's how slow things are now.
The site (and app) are growing...fast. Things that worked fine previously had to be re-written and optimized to account for a bunch of new data. My database alone is over a TB.
In the new version, all pages have been looked at, studied, and optimized and now take a fraction of second to load. GTA, popular profiles, everything.
LISTS BECOME AN ACTUAL BACKLOG TRACKER
Lists were a neat little addition, but nothing that really stood out. They have since transformed into a full fledged backlog tracker. Check out the preview video below.

MORE CHARTS!
To make the site feel more "stat" friendly. I've also added a several new changes that can be seen. Every game will have a chart (seen below) that will show trophy activity and every profile will have charts that show that gamers trophy activity and their rarity breakdown
TONS OF QUALITY OF LIFE UPDATES
And I do mean tons. Nearly every page has had multiple QoL updates added. Here are just a few:
- Game charts will now show your progress along with all your friends and can be filtered by year
- Updating your trophy cabinet no longer requires your to go all over the site and can all be done from your profile
- Guide writing has had an overhaul and is not much simpler to use
- All trophies will now show PSN rarity and the rarity among Pocket PSN users
- Viewing your hidden games and hiding/hiding games is just a simple toggle switch on your profile
- Faster PSN syncing
- AND OVER A HUNDRED MORE!
