<p>Nathan,</p>
<p>This is all fantastic feedback, and I really appreciate it. These
things should be totally fixable before the conference.</p>
<p>If you have a github account, would you be willing to put in some
issues on the issues tracker?</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/KnowikiApps/scale-conf-app/issues">https://github.com/KnowikiApps/scale-conf-app/issues</a></p>
<p>If not, I can add them myself no problem.</p>
<p>Can you also let me know what model of android phone you're
using? Also the android version if you can. I want to see if I can
reproduce the issues on an emulator.</p>
<p>Keep the feedback coming!</p>
<p>Best,<br>

for all your hard work, Derek. I've made a few notes, and in the
interest of time, I'll be blunt--but please know that I appreciate
the effort it takes to make an app, much less a cross-platform
one!
<br>
<br>
I noticed that on Android, the back button doesn't do
anything--you have to tap the toolbar button. That screams
"amateur," and of course the app is a lot better than that!
<br>
<br>
If you look at the schedule, there's an "add to my schedule"
button, but if you do so, there's no indication that it worked
after you dismiss the confirmation. I feel like the [+] button
should change to a different icon or at the least a [-] button to
remove it.
<br>
<br>
Last, I can't actually scroll down to the last session on any day,
just the second-to-last, so that I can scroll the screen and hold
my finger on the screen to see the last session, but I can never
add it to my schedule or tap it to view the details.
<br>
<br>
Tapping a session to view the web page also seems a little
disjointed (although the dynamic responsiveness of the SCALE fits
in nicely), but I'd rather have a native view of the description
and author info.
<br>
<br>
"Back" button support is a major issue, the rest are serious but
much more minor. It's still a pretty good mobile experience, and
much better than sliding around the web site. So thanks for all
the hard work!
<br>
<br>

<br>

Ilan,
<br>
<br>
Sorry about the delayed reply, I've been dealing with
some
<br>
issues with one of my clients and it has been an
absolute
<br>
drain on my energy.
<br>
<br>
Things are going well with the app though. I'm just
about done
<br>
updating the urls and image resources for the 17x
moniker, and
<br>
I'll be uploading the updated app to the stores soon.
<br>
<br>
What would be really awesome is if you could install
the app
<br>
on your phone and test it out before I upload the
updates to
<br>
the stores. Obviously, the data will be from 16x but
we
<br>
haven't changed any of the features so you should be
able to
<br>
use it just the same. Any feedback you give can be
integrated
<br>
into the update I'll send.
<br>
<br>
I think the main thing I need to know is what work we
need to
<br>
do for it to be acceptable for the conference. If
there are
<br>
any features that you want to add, we definitely have
time to
<br>
work on them. If there are any bugs you find, we have
time to
<br>
fix them. I'd love to get an email from you soon that
says the
<br>
app is good enough to use this year.
<br>
<br>
Whatever we need to do to get this year to be the
first year
<br>
SCaLE has it's own app, I'm down to get it done. I
just need
<br>
your feedback.

android will allow you to do it, but with ios you'd need
to jailbreak your phone or "sideload" the app from another
device. For Android the users would have to set their
devices to allow unauthorized apps, which I don't think
anyone would be willing to do, and we would have to set up
some backend download endpoint for he apk.
<br>
<br>
It looks like we could possibly contact apple
directly (and probably google too) to expedite a review.
We may be able to make a case that we want to push
immediate updates for the conference. But really, I think
if we got some people testing it over the next couple
months we should be fine.

Currently, the URLs are baked into the app, but
they don't have to stay that way. There's a bunch of ways
we could probably do it since they are just strings in the
source code. You're welcome to work on it. If you send me
your github handle, I can add you as a dev on the project.

Hi Derek,
<br>
<br>
Do the urls have to be baked into the IPA? Also,
can we push the ipa outside of the store, so we can avoid
Apple store?

I changed all of the urls and they look like
they are working just fine! I'm also in the process of
editing the image resources to reflect the new 17x as
well.
<br>
<br>
Can you add some announcements to the backend
for 17x? We'll need some sample announcements that
don't contain the words "sample", "demo", "test" or
anything like that (apple will reject the app if we
use those kinds of words). Or if you want to give me
access to the backend I can do it, whatever you feel
comfortable with. I would recommend that you just copy
the text from some tweets or facebook posts. It would
be real announcements that apple probably wouldn't
have a problem with.
<br>
<br>
Once we have some announcements in there and
I've edited the image resources, I should be able to
deploy to the app stores and have the 17x ready to
install/update in couple days time. I will also update
the app store graphics and screen shots with the 17x
moniker.
<br>
<br>
In my experience, it can take around 48 hours
for updates to be approved by the app stores, so we
want to make sure that we get as much testing done as
soon as we can so that we have time to fix bugs and
make updates. Once the conference starts, we probably
won't be able to get app updates to the users before
the end.

Thanks Derek. .What urls did you use for 16x?
Can we just change the

path to 17x?

All,
<br>
<br>
Last year we started working on a mobile app
to replace guidebook. We got most of the way there,
but didn't quite make it in time to be used for the
conference. We'd love to see this app used this year
so we're reaching out for your help to get it up and
running. We're looking for people to test the app,
develop features, find and report bugs, and work on
backend features.
<br>
<br>
the app can be installed on both Android, iOS,
and all desktop OS's:

Currently the app is configured for 16x, but
we just need the backend API endpoints for 17x and
that will be fixed. So if you're the site admin send
us the endpoint URLs please!
<br>
<br>
If you're interested in contributing to the
project as a tester, developer, or designer let us
know.
