Thanks to everyone for your patience, I realize how frustrating it is when the situation is out of your control. We will make an announcement as soon as an update is ready.
-
@anteos: currently I'm changing how the interstitials are shown, making it so they can be preloaded whenever possible and changing the times when they will actually appear. Darryl's been working with AirPush to get things sorted out with the new ad …
-
I'm actually not sure exactly what's involved in order to be truly compatible. If nothing else I'd like to add cast support for our audio activities, but that sort of thing will need to wait until after our material redesign. (Which keeps getting de…

That's strange. I notice that you had several interstitial ads enabled...I wonder if it would make any difference if only AdMob ads were enabled? In Andromo the interstitials are triggered within the onStart method of an activity. That method is tr…

Chrome apps and Facebook apps are different kinds of apps. Chrome apps only run in the Chrome browser. A Facebook app can refer to any app that works with the Facebook platform API, but most often refers to a web app. Andromo makes native Android a…

@sylviathewitch: If you're using Playlist IDs, then yes you will need API keys. Apps built with the old YouTube activity will no longer return any results, unless they were using the single video option (which forms a different kind of URL that shou…
-
The error number shown between brackets is our own internal error code, so you won't be able to find anything online about it (unless Google has started indexing Darryl's brain). (99) is "error unknown" which basically means that YouTube r…
-
@tholyoak: the Andromo code is set to fallback on other enabled ad networks in the case of an error -- whenever the ad network makes it possible to detect that an error occurred. Not all of them provide that functionality, or do so consistently, unf…
-
@tholyoak: the main reason you can't tie it to a particular app is because that functionality is currently broken in the YouTube Data API. Currently if an api key includes any application identifiers (list of SHA1;package items) the api will always …

Here is a workaround that you might want to take advantage of. There is a new URL format that you can use to retrieve RSS feed data, but only for some types of YouTube queries: https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_IDhttps://ww…
-
It's actually related to the v2 API shutting down, so we'll need to change how some of the settings work in the YouTube activity.
-
What kind of device are you testing on? I've never seen that page, but it sounds like it could be related to the YouTube app on your device needing to be updated.
-
Thanks for the suggestion. I actually plan to revisit the audio activities in the future; with our planned changes to support material design, there's a high likelihood of the audio activities changing in appearance and function.
-
You can play audio streams with the Audio or Radio activities. Note that although Android officially supports AAC, some forms of AAC are not compatible with many Android devices. For example, not many devices support AAC+SBR using the standard Andr…

@jankb: I changed the string so it should be corrected in the next release. Thanks again for the reminder. :) @mastermx: Adding support for RSS GUID elements worked for compliant feeds, but it turns out a lot of feeds (like Google News) don't use t…
-
@jankb: thanks for reminding us again, that did indeed slip through the cracks. When I looked into it previously there didn't seem to be a universally agreed upon translation for a notice in this context, so I think I will change it to the untransla…
-
@hendrixs: I think I will quote Darryl on this one: "It's never as easy as they say it is." :) Thanks for the links, I don't think that will get into the next update as our hands are pretty full right now, but I will create a ticket for u…
-
Hi David, The downloaded files are only accessible within the app using the same podcast activity that was used to download them.
-
The status for that specific functionality is largely the same; subcategories were implemented internally in the build code of Andromo by last year, but they also need several changes to the web site to allow them to be configured in your projects. …
-
Sorry, the podcast activity does not support displaying images from the feed. The description text is treated as text with limited markup, it is not displayed in a WebView.
-
I have not been able to make that happen on my test devices. Please open a support ticket providing a link to an app that exhibits the issue you're seeing, the make model and OS of the device you're testing with, and detailed step-by-step instructi…

That menu (the three dots) is not something you can control. It appears on all devices that don't have a hardware menu button. If you're using an older device with a dedicated "Menu" button, you will probably not see that overflow menu. (I…
-
@hendrixs: thanks :)
-
I believe the web settings are still being worked on. Our team has been hit by sickness recently which has caused some unexpected delays.
-
@midz the icon with the three dots is the standard Android overflow menu which appears when there are actions available (such as "Settings" or "About") that either do not fit or do not need to appear on the action bar. The overfl…
-
Not in the current version but this ability has been added to the engine and will be released in a future update. (Although it's fully implemented internally, the web interface for it involves a lot of work.)
-
Some manufacturer device updates contain bugs that affect the built-in Android MediaPlayer API that we use. Sometimes switching to a different codec or bitrate can help, but there have been some bugs that would prevent audio playback no matter what …
-
Being able to hide individual activities so they don't appear on the dashboard is actually an upcoming feature. Our dev team was hit by sickness over the holidays so everything is a bit delayed here at the moment but hiding activities is definitely …
-
The best way would be to create another m3u file that contains all the stations from those three m3u files, and use that instead.
-
There are two ways: * use an Audio activity with multiple tracks * use a playlist file (.m3u, .pls, .asx) containing multiple links
