Finally some comfort way to count my moshi kames.

Did you got a Galaxy Nexus or is it a custom ROM of ICS? Is a great phone, I love it

[Mirek]

Nope, it is my old Nexus S with official ICS OTA update. Galaxy Nexus is too big for me. I miss Instagram and iPhone camera on Andoid phones so I maybe switch to iOS.

Worked great On my HTC Desire S. Its smooth, fast and the videos downloaded pretty quickly. Good work!
Will there be updates with more ladders e.g. the EKO/BKO 2012 ladders, or the more exotic JKA/kengarden/Consistency comp ladders?
Or even more tricks???

P.S. Thanks for doing android first.

Thanks for the positive feedback!

Many people say that if you make your app to be on the home screen of a phone, you are doing it right. There is not much space for quick icons there

The idea it to check if it gets enough user base, then we had plans to include more features, probably no more tricks, but improving self-certification, kettle trick, play ladders, etc

For the moment we are working on the iOS version, which is almost completed, and a free version with less features and videos.

UPDATE Lite version now available for FREE - see first post ^.

I bought the app for my Acer Iconia Tab A500 tablet.  It is awesome!!!  The videos of the tricks helps my students to see the tricks in action.  I highly recommend it.

It's times like this I hate my phone... it's a Nokia and therefore, only has access to the Nokia Ovi Store and not the android market
