Kompoz for Android

Just wanted to let everyone know that I released Kompoz for Android. The app allows Android phone users to interact with Kompoz.com on their Android device via their Kompoz user account.
Why?
The project started as a way for me to teach myself mobile device functionality in the context of a web service. Raf was kind enough to provide the support I needed and somewhere along the way I decided that it might be something I’d want to use regularly and so I continued to develop the features and user interface.
Features
Currently, the app allows quick access to member profiles and projects, continuous playback of Kompoz’s user radio stations, creation and playback of playlists and the ability to search for artists and projects.
Future plans
Priority will go to fixing issues and improving usability and performance. After that I’d like to consider support for tablet devices and adding support for the latest Android UI features.
What if 'X' feature doesn’t work correctly for me?
I'm relying on user feedback to help test and guide my efforts since I'm the sole developer. All feedback is welcome. Just drop me an email at my developer account and I’ll look into it as soon as I can.
Where can I get it?
Grab it in the Google Play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.theobviousexit.kompoz
Many thanks to the folks here that helped test the original app. That feedback helped me a ton.
Enjoy! |

Just downloaded it. Wow, it looks great and seems to be working pretty smoothly.
It did take me a while to log-in, kept rejecting my password, but finally accepted it. Might have been my Android's keypad, it's quite batty at times.
I also have the Kompoz app for the iPhone, but this looks a lot nicer.
Thank you for this, I'll certainly let you know if I have any problems, etc... :)

Great to hear that you like it so far. My short list includes researching OAuth for the app (logging in with Facebook etc...) since typing on the soft keyboard is a poor experience ;)

Just grabbed it, Jon. Have only given it a quick test drive but I like what I see. Thank you for the time and effort you put into developing this app. I am psyched to have it!

I hate to ask. IS the iPhone app going to get the same type of features soon?
This stuff is very cool and very convenient!
You guys are in overdrive!! It is much appreciated.

The functionality is fantastic. Unfortunately, after opening it once it stops working and requires me to uninstall and reinstall. Not sure if it's my phone or the app. But, I can say I'm psyched for the future where I seem to be less and less tethered to my desktop. Hurray!

For what it is worth, I am running your app on a kindle fire that I re-flashed into an android tablet. Working fine. Thank you for all the effort you put into this app.

That's great news guys. Looks like Google Play takes about 4-8 hours for versions to update. that's a ton slower than this time last year.
@MJC252 - I like that info. I was considering doing just the same.

You're welcome Dave. New version coming soon should add a "latest projects category" somewhere around the landing page to make it easier to find and browse new stuff.
