Beta test the Android app

[MichaelApproved]

The app is in pretty good shape but there are a few little bugs we need to squash before releasing. There's a public download available for it but you have to follow some instructions on installing the app because it's not in the Play store yet.

You can download the app here

Reports app not found. And chance we can just get the .apk file and sideload it?

Sorry about that. Here's a Dropbox folder where you'll find the latest build.

Two bugs with the app.
1. I have push notification turned on, but didn't receive a notification in the hour leading up to today's live show.

2. The Live Show tab counted down to the live show start time. The last I saw was 4 minutes, and then I got tied up with work stuff. I came back to the app 20 minutes later (~15 minutes into the show) and the Live Show page shows next live show in 0 0 0 0. I expected to be able to join the current live show in progress.

I checked the Shows tab to see if I could join there, but it's not there yet, presumably because it's still being recorded.

Lastly, a suggestion. I logged into the app with my forum creds. When I follow the Comment link from a past show, it takes me to a web view of the forum for that show. But it doesn't log me in. Any chance of passing my creds to that page so I can immediately participate, rather than needing to log in?

For the last several hours the Shows page never refreshes. All I see are spinning circles for each of the shows listed.

What happens if you pull-to-refresh that screen?

The Shows button eventually updated overnight. So the problem mentioned above doesn't repro this morning.

Now I can't download the current show to the phone. I've tried on WiFi and on cell data, "Download only on Wifi" switch turned on and off. No combination gets content to download.

I am able to stream the episode.

Also, the Pause button doesn't do anything. I expect it to switch from Pause to Resume/Continue, but it doesn't change when I click it. (Maybe it would if the download were working, so this might be a non-issue.)

Changing the Playback Rate has no effect on actual playback rate.

Nothing. I tried pull to refresh a few times but it didn't change the spinning circles.
