Setup Instructions¶
1. Install the app¶
Download the Nodle app from Google Play or App Store. There is no Docker image — Nodle is mobile-only and uses your phone's Bluetooth to detect nearby IoT devices.
2. Create a wallet¶
The app creates a Polkadot-based wallet on first launch. Your NODL earnings are on-chain. There is no web dashboard — you can only check earnings inside the app or via a Polkadot/Subscan blockchain explorer.
3. Enable permissions¶
Grant Bluetooth, Location, and Background Activity permissions. The app earns passively by scanning for nearby IoT beacons.
Docker Configuration¶
Nodle does not support Docker deployment. It is a mobile-only app that requires Bluetooth hardware.
Important Notes¶
- Web3-only: Nodle runs on the Nodle parachain (Polkadot ecosystem). There is no centralized API or web dashboard to check earnings or connected devices.
- Token: NODL — can be viewed on Subscan or other Polkadot explorers using your wallet address.
- No IP conflicts: Since Nodle uses Bluetooth (not internet bandwidth), it does not conflict with other bandwidth-sharing services on the same network.
