Good News for iPhone users but totally worthless for Android Users.....as per Apex, we are a small percentage of users compared to iPhones (which doesn't make sense to me)

Normally i wouldn't care, but the web based fusion has its own sets of issues.....which constantly reminds me on how apex is a bit overrated. Would've been nice to have hung out with the cool kidz on the iphones.

I may be an iPhone user (tried android and hated it), but this doesn't make sense to me. I see it being a split between iOS and android users.

I installed this. It's exactly the same as the web version. However I can use touch to login which is the only problem I had with the web version, having to login all the time.

I am surprised there is no android version because a lot of people use Amazon fire as a display.

As per apex, androids are a small percentage vs iphone users. Hence y they felt the need to leave us out
 
Android is harder for the developers. It is a very fragmented platform, so it requires a lot more testing on a variety of devices. IOS always comes first because it is easier to get to market.

Agree on the fragmented platform and also multiple devices (where iOS is basically one device). I think twice on the "always first because its easier to get to market" because iOS they have to pay and go through a lot of testing. Android is open platform so its cheaper for developers and also getting it to market is easier than apple. Now personally I never did either just going by what people who has done apps told me.
