OK, I don't have the expansion, so anything here is based off the KS page, I doubt this counts as a spoiler.
Someone speculated that the app might be tied to a specific curse rather than something you can add to any curse. I don't think that's the case, but if it is, I think it's "Beacon in the Night", the resources wouldn't mean much to any other curse, so it'd be cool if the app let you find them rather than the normal flags, since you wouldn't know where they are from previous curses. Anyone have any thoughts or theories?

The « Beacon in the Night » curse was a stretch goal announced way before the app. I doubt theses two are that dependent of the other one. But I like your theory!

I doubt the app is required content for a curse just b/c they can't count on everybody being able to use it. If the app is just associated with some random 350 item or something, it can just say "if you don't have a smartphone, banish this and take another 350" or similar, so there's little or no disruption to the game. If it's required to complete a curse, and a player without a smartphone gets to that point in the curse, that player's just stuck -- potentially hours into a curse that was otherwise going fine. I doubt they'd consider that acceptable, even if 95% of players have a way to install the app. (Could be a lot less than that -- AFAIK they haven't even gotten Apple to approve it yet so for the time being it's Android exclusive.)

Beacon in the Night does make good thematic sense though, it's a fun theory.

Apple app is approved... But without the password prompt :ermm:

That's good news indeed! Shame about the password I guess.
