On one hand, I can see how KATG would be annoyed about having their name on an app that doesn't work and seems to be giving them a bad name. I wouldn't want my name on a service that may be deterring potential listeners from subscribing to my show. If this guy was going to develop an app for my company, I would hope that he would choose to try to stay on top of any feedback and problems that users were encountering. And if he was too busy to monitor this, maybe he should wait until he has some free time to do some crash testing.
On the other hand, I think KATG came off a bit harsh and unappreciative for the volunteer work that this guy put in when he was genuinely trying to help KATG and give back for all the thousands of awesome shows. It seems like "Joel" was genuinely trying to be a nice dude and do a nice favour to KATG and the android listeners. I don't know anything about developing software, but I can imagine that it takes a buttload of time and effort to make such an application. I can just picture that it must have sounded very hurtful when a loyal fan (Joel) dedicated his time and effort to make this for free, and then hear KATG shit all over him. It was a bit harsh and could have been handled with more sensitivity, appreciation and respect. I can empathize with this guy because I myself do alot of volunteer work because I want to help people, but I would feel crappy if the people I work on free projects for turned around and shit on me when I was just trying to help them and give back out the goodness of my heart.
I do agree that maybe this app should not have been put out with KATGs name on it, and instead been labelled with "Joels app" or whatever.

Really? Thats what this joel guy whats u do think. FOR FREE u make it sound like keith and girl asked him to make this;they didn't. If u put out a product that doesn't work and put their name on it they have every right to get pissed. If he makes a product like that.It makes others outside of this world make it seem like they have substandard products.As for being nicer.U listen to keith and the girl.THe whole show is like this.It is how keith reacts to shit.He doesn't try to butter people up.Thats what makes me keep coming back.Best belive if I ever find a way to make something with their name on it. I won't half as it. If u want to help, really help All the way. Just like the Iphone app.I mean if I go to a soup kitchen and feed homeless; a bowl of shit.And somebodys like "I won't eat this".What am I going to be like " O I am doing this for free and you won't eat this shit" and then I put on the Sign KATG soup kitchen.That would be wrong also.No doing something for free don't mean u can half ass it.
