The app is really nice! great work guys!

A few suggestions for next updates:
- allow multiple accounts to be added (most of us rock not only multiple toons but also multiple accounts)
- show current implants both on switch page and character main page, as well as active boosters if possible (most of us try to track how long we have left until we need to pop a new booster)
- longer term assume you will add market order overview functionality? (see and amend market orders etc.)

But great work so far! thank you for the app.



you can add multiple accounts, jusy go to switch - add 9 and if you added all characters from one account you have the option to log in another account)

Or just hit cancel at the bottom of the screen where you select another character on the same account. It takes you back to the login. From there you can relog under the new account.

General thoughts:

Positives:
- I like the visual presentation, especially in character selection
- No issues with logging characters in yet, could just be a matter of time but so far no errors
- Load times for info seem pretty good, nothing has taken longer than about 3 seconds (as soon as I typed this it stalled briefly... What? )

Negatives:
- Without a planner/fitter/etc it doesn't seem to stand well on it's own in terms of function
- Can't collapse skill queue?
- Adding characters from different accounts is less than intuitive (but easy once you know how)
- Can't lock order of characters in the character select screen? (alpha/age sort please?)
- Defaults to empty activity screen? (would prefer character sheet but not sure what is supposed to show there in its entirety over time and future development)

Note most of the negatives are more preferences and feature requests rather than true issue with the app.

Yep I understand that they have to cut off support somewhere but please give us support down to KitKat. Its still quite widely used. Especially if the plan is to retire the indeed painful evegate interface I really dont want to have to buy a new phone.

Like it so far, except so far what I can tell it's missing:

Market information
Asset information
Item Database
Saved Fittings
Fitting editing
Wallet transactions information
Expanded Skill Queue editing
Expanded skill information
Total wallets information amounts - A feature in AURA
Forum access
etc.

CCP if you have not done so please take a long hard look at "Fly Safe" app ( iphone ), by developer Luc Regnault. I use this multiple times a day, whilst it doesnt have every feature I could wish for ( I think he is limited by what he can do with the API ), this app is pretty much perfect for my mobile EVE needs.


If you did nothing else, start with what this app provides and the type of awesome easy to use, intuitive interface it has, and improve on that. Or just fekken contract the guy to help you :D

How can I add characters from more than one account? I added all from one, easy enough. But now I cant even work out how to log out...

To log a character out slide that character left from the characters list. To add from another account go to add and then go to cancel at the bottom which takes you to the login screen. From there you can enter the info for the account you want.

Logging out is unnecessary actually. Just keep pressing cancel at the character screen until it allows you to sign in again.

I was answering the statement "I cant even work out how to log out..." with the logout instructions, not as part of getting characters from other accounts in, but on it's own.

May not have been clear from the lack of separation.

One thing that doesn't seem to be working right:
-The skill queue time is not accurate on the Android app, Eve Portal. I have a skill with only 2 hours left to train and the app says it has over 6 hours left not matter how much I refresh it.

Most of these are probably already in the back burner, but here are a few tips to improve the app:
-Current clone implants and character attributes information. I see other clone implants, but not current clone.
-Would be nice for the ship image to be a rotatable 3D model.
-The ship type should be displayed as well as the name. Currently only the name is displayed. Maybe clicking on the ship will show you more ship info, with ship type, role bonuses and fitting.
-Including the ghost fitting technology and ability to import/export fittings would be amazing!
Let us manage the skill queue from the App? This might not be so good since now people would be less likely to actually log into the game.
-Add market and contract order information. Let me see what I'm selling and for how much. Add notifications when something over a certain price range sells.
-Let us delete emails from the app. I see old deleted emails on it and no way to get rid of them.
-Option to default to characters overview pane when the app is open. I want to see all my characters, not the last one I opened.
-Wallet pane. Let us see our ISK transactions.

Good job, keep it up!

My home is that they wanted to get a functional app on android and iPhone on some level for the 'Open Beta' before pushing it out to more OS.

Maybe wishful thinking but you know.

Yeah, maybe. I'm trying it out on my work phone which is an IPhone6 Cry. Eventually I'll upgrade my personal phone though. This app really looks like a port to a website but it at least looks clean sofar.

Hoping they add corporation bits to it Lol maybe structure timers and stats, what manufacturing jobs are running, etc..

If it counts for anything CCP have recently released a website to help CREST developers and by the looks of it they have added to the REST API the ability to do quite a few new things in the last couple of months such as Send Mails (I assume that was how they were doing it with the cellphone app) so even if CCP does not role out the ability to people like me who still use kitkat to send mails someone else who is a developer (ie. Not me) can make an app with that ability. Would really rather use a CCP app to do it, but honestly will probably end up using the first app that has that ability for me :P
