I wonder if its safe to use an unofficial app of that kind at all. Can the code be reviewed? Im not saying that anyone is planning this but a scammer could create such app, let it run until many are using it and once he has access to many bitcoins or accounts, he sells all fiat and withdraws all coins to its own bitcoin address.
But i would like such app. I only wonder about the additional layer of risk.

I want a kraken app for android
I want a kraken app for android
Hi Folks,
My name is Melroy van den Berg, software engineer/developer for several years. My idea is to create an unofficial Android App for the Kraken.com Exchange.
Due to the fact Kraken has in own API, it will be not that hard to create an Android app for it.
I will include the following features a.k.a. "Market Data" or "Exchange Rates":
Beside the info above, I will also include the following feature of the user a.k.a. "My account" optionally (which requires login):
As long as the API will deliver all info I need, there is no limitations in the features of the Android app.
Please, let me know what do you think about the idea?

Pretty sad and shameless to steal + copy a design from another user. Hope you get banned soon.
Hi,
My name is Leon Cullens and I'm the developer of the Kraken app for Windows Phone 8 (http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=a3857353-599a-434f-8293-398745723de6). I post here, because I was shocked to find out that Melroy van den Berg stole the design of my app in his post, and apparently intends to copy this design for his own app. I think it's really weak to just literally copy some else's design, without even providing the credits that are in place.
Here is what my app looks like:

I hereby kindly request you to take this image down and create your own design.
Kind regards,
Leon Cullens

I feel bad for you man... You've been working hard on the app and somebody just steals your design. I hope this topic gets locked and removed.

great idea !!!
great idea !!!
A Kraken app would definitely be nice!
Recently opened a Kraken account and am looking forward to trying this new app.
It looks good so far!
It looks good so far!
+1. Kraken is a really solid exchange that deserves more use and if you could make an app half as good as the site I'd be extremely impressed.
I admire you great positive reply
Thanks!
