Any hope for Blackberry users ?  Huh

This may come soon. Cheesy

It's cool I guess however the need for my password every time I use it literally makes this unusable to me. My passwords are saved and entered automatically, and there's no way I'm memorizing my 40+ digit PW, or lowering that number. To my knowledge I cannot even copy and paste into the entry box.

Edit: in fact, going to Mt Gox straight from my phones browser is a lot easier considering I can auto-fill the passwords with lastpass, keepassdroid or other features.

You simply need to scan and synchronize the application.  You can also copy and paste the text by long pressing on the edit box just as one would in any Android application if you do not have a camera.  You can choose a "password" for sync that is just 4 characters long if you wish.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Smiley

edit:  http://mtgoxlive.com/mobile has brief instructions on how to synchronize your phone with your account.

Currently, Apple has policies against applications which enable the trade of virtual currencies.  We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause at this time, and for now, are working to bring the application across all jailbroken devices and will simultaneously be doing everything we can to bring this application to the Apple App Store.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

Has this been submitted to Apple so those of us who aren't jailbroken can use it?

[Solved]

FYI: I should add that I was using the Swiftkey Tablet X keyboard app, and not the standard Android keyboard. When I tried to change the keyboard to the standard Android one, and reran your app, it started showing the "login" button again. I then tried to reproduce the bug by alternating between the keyboards and force stopping the app in between. No success in reproducing the bug. Maybe it was related to me switching keyboards, or maybe the bug just happened to resolve itself for another unknown reason, at just the same time I tried to switch keyboard.


Interesting.  Please keep us updated if this issue ever decides to reveal itself again.

2. When I exited the app on my Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101, and tried to relogin again, there is no "submit" button or equivalent to submit my password.

todu, those are excellent suggestions sir and some changes will be made within the next build:
1) Confirm password.
2) Larger font on history (and/or possibly zoom)

As for landscape, this is definitely something we will add soon... in an intuitive way.
Thanks for the continued suggestions! It helps a lot Cheesy

Please add pinch-to-zoom functionality on the transaction history tab, or at least increase the size of the text. It's so small it's barely readable on my 3.7 inch HTC Desire phone.

Looks pretty cool! It would be nice if the password could be prompted only when needed. (Perhaps this is the case as I haven't downloaded it yet) You could create buy/sell orders, transfers etc and it would be added to a "pending" list. Then the user could "authorize" with a password and it will fulfill the actions. The password would then be used, forgotten, and prompted when needed again.

Right now the app pairs with the account and requires 1 password to login... please let us know how this works for you. Smiley


No worries. I'm running the latest available (in Sweden) official unrooted Android 3.1 build number HMJ37.WW_epad-8.4.4.11-20110711, sir. It's better that the phone app works flawlessly and not the tablet app, than the other way around. But getting both to work is of course ideal Smiley. I'm giving the app five stars anyway.

Thanks!
And we definitely will.  Everyone is our priority. Wink

1. I tried to install the app on my Transformer tablet and the GUI isn't adapted to the higher resolution. Any ETA on when we can hope for a fix? The graphs and depth info gets really small.

Sorry about that, this is a known issue and we will get to this soon unless Honeycomb 3.2 can make it to devices sooner.   If you visit http://mtgoxlive.com/orders you will be able to see the view in a full screen.  It is merely an issue with the app and "xtra large" screens/honeycomb.  What Android OS are you running, sir?

This is very strange and could appear to be another UI issue with the newer tablets.  We will get to this as soon as possible, as being able to use this on a tablet is very important to us. Smiley

Thanks for the feedback and your continued patience as we bring the application to more devices.

Please let us know your experience with the app and feel free to provide comments, suggestions, complaints, etc. Wink
edit: and more importantly, tell your local favorite shops and merchants!  They can start with their phones and get a true PoS soon!

Great app! Thanks for sharing. Two issues though:

1. I tried to install the app on my Transformer tablet and the GUI isn't adapted to the higher resolution. Any ETA on when we can hope for a fix? The graphs and depth info gets really small.

2. When I exited the app on my Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101, and tried to relogin again, there is no "submit" button or equivalent to submit my password.

And to those who wonder where the "revoke" permissions button is: You have to reload the settings web page for the revoke button to become visible.

EDIT1:
3. Please make it possible to rotate the phone and/or tablet, and that the screen also rotates. On small phones' touch screens, it is easier to hit the correct buttons when the phone is in landscape rotation.

4. You could make the single "choose your password" field into two fields, where the second field asks you to "confirm your chosen password". Not a biggie, but makes the app behave as people are used to.

Comment: On point 2 above, the missing button I'm referring to is called "login" on the phone app.

If I drop my phone could someone move all my BTC? Or does the software lock out after a set time?

The software itself does not lock out after a set time. This is an excellent question and its something that will absolutely be included in the next update in < 48 hours.  You can currently revoke the API access through your Mt. Gox settings.  Until tomorrow, I would strongly suggest setting a timeout/password on your phone itself or always remember to logout.

Please keep the feedback, questions and comments coming!

edit: time for update, there was a lot more feedback/requests than was anticipated. Smiley
