Info: Android app is ready to go

[ChrisMWilliams]

It's been quite the process but I'm told that our Android app is finally ready to go. Here's the link. Check it out and remember, we'll be updating this quite a bit in the coming weeks to iron out the kinks. Enjoy.

Bug report:

Started a podcast, went to another page in the app. When you go back to the podcast page, you cant stop play of the podcast, only start it double playing. only way to stop podcast is stopping the app through the active applications list.

Yippe I'm excited to try it.

Phone (Moto X) locked up on opening when it asked if I wanted to update. Running Jellybean. Had to shut down the phone. I will try again in a few days, but am uninstalling it for now.

Not complaining, just wanted developers to know in case it helps them with debugging it.

OK, as a PSA, and to help CW and crew....the app was just released, it will have bugs....it happens. Also, it's free...so if you're going to download it and then complain about it not working....please just wait a week or two and you'll be much happier.

First time opening it tries to update content then freezes. Have to force close.

Had the same thing. I just closed the app and reopened it with no issues. It did freeze up when I went into a forum and tried to go back so I had to force close it. I also only noticed the Men's and Women's Basketball forums listed, but maybe this was just me? Still excited to finally have a CF app nonetheless and this is all no big deal IMO.

On a random note, it looked like the forums use the mobile site layout. One of the reasons I still just run the full site on my tablet is because there is a general forum tab with the latest posts from all forums and not just from one specific topic making it easier to browse. It would be sweet if this was doable on the mobile site but then again I have no idea of that could work or not.

We are not complaining. We are reporting issues so they can be fixed.

OK, where did I specifically reference you or any other poster so far in this thread? Try not to be so sensitive, Nancy....it was a generic comment.

Who asked for your input, Mable?

 

[HoopsTournament]

Any chance that you will have this available in the Amazon App Store (after the bugs are out)?

 

[GTO]

I'll report back after I see if it makes me breakfast in the morning...

Why so many permissions at install. Why do you need access to my camera and contacts?

How did I never notice this before? That makes the mobile much more usable for me now!
