Cryptobuddy is an Android app that tracks and displays prices, news, charts, markets, and fundamentals of over 1500 crypto currencies! The app is completely open source with NO ADS EVER! It was a labor of love. I have spent months working on it every night after I get home from work and on weekends.

android.permission.INTERNET
These two permissions are required so that we can talk to the APIs on the internet that give us information about crypto currencies
- CryptoCompare min-api: This API is currently only used for Markets and News
- CoinMarketCap: Huge thanks to CoinMarketCap! Without their APIs this app would not be possible. They are the backend for chart data, coin images, market caps, volume, prices, and percent changes
