Why is it, that EVE Gate is not being updated anymore? Latests news have been the same for months now. I use EVE Gate as my homepage and I find really irritating that is it not being updated frequently..

I agree with this. Gate is absolute crap on a smart device. The character header is completely useless with touch screens because it seems to respond to click events and not consider device actions. This means once I've logged on with an account its basically impossible to log out again. I can click the menu that would allow me to log out but it disappears instantly. If I click and hold then the device's hold gesture menu comes up and I lose the context of the eve header menu. This needs to be addressed.

The thing that annoyed me about gate from day one is the fact that when you go to reply to an email on a device the text block you're supposed to type in is literally three words wide and two lines long. Terrible styling. This was consistent on my android as well as my windows phone 8.

I'm not sure what updates the op is hoping for but fixing those two thing would go a long way towards making the system actually usable when not on a mouse device.

The mail system is deeply flawed - convoluted process of adding linkable character names, corps, items, etc. to the email body, and I don't know if it's just IE, but whenever i click return twice in a row, whatever evemail i'm in the middle of typing gets sent in whatever state its in. Which is real pro look for an alliance I can tell you (sarcasm).

Any plans to sort this out? As much as I'd love to be perma-logged into the client, I have to rely on eve gate when out and about.

Please develop some of these features so that they are actually useful.
