Give it up for Keith, our new product intern aka newly appointed Assistant Chief Tasting Officer (not too shabby for a CTO acronym, init), sharing some pretty big news straight from the Liven HQ, that might just have changed his life as a foodie app intern. šŸ˜Ž Check out all his handywork here.


Hey Liveneers,

Todayā€™s my big break (Keith the intern here) - Liven has finally let me write an app release. Firstly Iā€™d like to thank my stomach for getting me this job. Turns out you can get a job by just ā€œhanging out with your friends, not going to med school, and drinking Bubble Teaā€ so take that Mum & Dad...

Alipay & UnionPay Integration

The biggest revelation since someone decided to drop a tapioca ball in their perfectly fine tea, Liven has enabled users to pay with their own Alipay & UnionPay accounts. This spells huge news for anyone who canā€™t be bothered dealing with multiple bank accounts. I can't even be bothered blinking sometimes, so this is right up my alley. šŸ˜Œ

Personalised Feed

Just like your friend who canā€™t stop posting gym selfies, Livenā€™s been 'putting that work in, while yā€™all sleepin'. Weā€™ve implemented these handy little cards to make your home page experience silky smooth.

Content Card implementation

Just like your friend who canā€™t stop posting gym selfies, Livenā€™s been ā€œputting that work in, while yā€™all sleepinā€. Weā€™ve implemented Content Cards to make your experience silky smooth. Keep your eyes out for some cool new changes.

  • content card - pop issue
  • content card - card_id filter out old campaign cards
  • content card - filter duplicated merchant

Prompts and Guides

We added shiny prompts and guides to make it easier for newbiesā€¦ to you knowā€¦ eat, pay and earn. Tbh my boss bought some reaaaaally expensive software to do ALL THE THINGS and thatā€™s a lot of pressure for me you know? So I kept it simple for now and made it easier to go from not having a burger in your hands to having said burger. šŸ” Youā€™re welcome.

Bug Fixes


What I love about software, is that you can fix bugs (things you couldā€™ve done better) in your code. If that was the same as in real life, my GoT name would be something like:
Keith, of house Intern, breaker of notmyneighboursBMWwindow, Protector of tearsduringShrek, Khaleesi of my HECS, Drinker of non-expired milk. Unfortunately, it is quite the oppositeā€¦. Anyway, here are some bugs we fixed on Liven

  • code clean - delete wait bill retry code
  • add default card resources to fix unknown card display bug
  • fix facebook login version to fix gradle build issue

Anyway that's a wrap (not to be confused with a burrito). šŸŒ® šŸ„™ šŸŒÆ

Until next time,

Keith (The Intern).
