First Gixen Android App, made by Karl Hudgell

[mario]

Karl Hudgell informed me that he made the first Android App for Gixen (using Gixen XML API).

I tested it, and while it is clearly a first release with space for improvements (e.g. no watchlist import, display of items text only), I was delighted to see the first smartphone app for Gixen that actually works. Thank you Karl.

The app is available here: Gixen Android App

Before purchasing the app note that you will need Gixen mirror subscription, or it will not work. The app uses Gixen API that requires mirror subscription. Keep in mind that this is a third-party app, and that all proceeds from the app purchases go to Karl. I will do my best to help if there are any issues, but I may not be able to help with all the support requests. I trust that Karl will be there to answer app-specific questions.

From what Karl told me, the price is around $1, and buyers are entitled to all the future updates. Please support his effort if you can.

Hi Mario,

Thanks for posting this here for people to find out about the application..

Like Mario said, this is the first release, and has quite good functionality for that, though I do have more features planned for the future..

The price of the app is GBP 0.69p, and as stated all future updates are included.

If your download it, I hope you like it.

Hi guys,

Please be aware that the app is still early in creation and that many changes and improvements are planned, so make this a must have for android-gixen users.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

Just an update.

I have just released an update for the app that fixes all the issues commented in the review, it is now possible, quick and easy to edit and delete a snipe on your snipe list, as well as add a new snipe from your ebay watch list (like Gixen main site).

So now all you need to do is have the item you want to add a snipe to, in your eBay watch list and you can easily add a new snipe to it.

Delete screen is now auto populated via your currently listed snipes, instead of having to enter manually (still possible).

The app is now much faster and easier than using the mobile web interface (as good as it is) on your android powered device, so head to the play store and check it out.

Thanks
