anyone willing to beta test my android app???

Okay, bear in mind that my heart is really in the iOS version of this app which has been out about a year but I keep getting asked constantly do make an android version. It doesn't look as awesome as my iPhone but maybe its my cheap android phone (pay as you go metroPCS samsung admire. I have yet to beta test on a tablet. Please let me know if anything crashes or just looks awful. Thanks! http://erresapp.com/erres.apk Josh

Well I tried it out on my Galaxy S 1 and 2, and it runs well. No hiccups or crashes. I also like the info! lol, I have a one year old and I def gonna keep this app on my phone because she is always doing crazy stuff. On my Galaxy S 1 the icons were a little to the left so margins may fix that, but all the different screen res will make that almost impossible I think. I didn't notice as much on the bigger phone. Let me know if you wanted me to check anything specific. I can test it on a tablet tomorrow if you need.( I work for Sprint, I have an arsenal of devices to test on!)

Checked every link( all thousand :) ) Everything looked good. Everything was readable. Looked good. The only thing I would change is your share via text. It looks like it is a iPhone link. Shane

Very good app. I assume it's BTv1.5, based on previous posts. It crashes every time I switch to another app and try to return to it. Test that four times. Fred

I installed it on my Samsung 10.1 tab and it crashed twice when I switched to another menu. Aside that everything seem to work nicely. BR/Stefan

Thanks guys, not sure what to do about the crashing. I've gone from menu to menu and app to app several time and seems to work okay on my phone. I definitely need to get a hold of a tablet to test on that too. I really wish the icons would look centered regardless of the android screen but don't think that's going to happen. Thanks again! Josh

If it's BTv1.5 the crash solution is simple: Remove the Splash Screen, it's unfinished for Android. Fred

New here so pardon my ignorance. I would like to start beta testing but I am unsure how to download them without the app being on market. Should this be a separate forum thread? If so, sorry.

To beta test, do you mean your app or another'a app. If your app, start a new thread and post info. Perhaps a link to: If Android the .apk If iOS you'll need to create a adhoc distribution. Fred

I meant another persons app. Not sure what you mean about the .apk I believe some of them are requesting (I assume) to be tested on a device. Most of them have them on a zip file so not sure how that gets to a phone. I could be mistaken.

To test another person's app they would need to post saying they need testers. Or you could post saying you wish to test / review others apps. The .apk is a zip file that an Android device can read. You should read Source Code (Android) in my guide. www.MySkylla.com Fred
