I just tried the Android app, it's kind of ugly. And it's the wrong branding (since you are not Shadow Coin anymore).

I was expecting higher quality. It's important to do things perfectly. Better to spend some more time to do it right then to rush things.

Questions:
1) Are there any plans to make this look better? Also, the UI could improve a great deal, this is not professional quality. I like the quality of others things you do (website, HTML5 wallet, branding, infographics, information), which is why I invested in your coin (many of those aspects I find poorly done in my main investment, Darkcoin, which has proven to be strong technology-wise, an area in which you guys will hopefully prove yourselves soon).
2) Since the main desktop wallet is HTML5, why didn't you just wrap that into an app? Then you keep things simple, consistent and reduce amount of work while keeping quality high.

Thanks in advance. No FUD btw, I support you guys, just hoping for improvements so I can justify investing more. To me it looks now like you guys simply tried to check the thickmark of having an app and being able to promote that fact.

Ryno has stated numerous times that right now the implementation of ZK is the main priority, then they will clean up and polish the mobile and other little kinks Cool

They mentioned before, that for now, the main goal is to implement zk-snarks, after that they will fix/polish everything else.

I guess they've been too busy with Zk to worry about esthetical/rebranding matters. But yeah, i guess this will be done when they have more time.

Yea to use the Mobile wallet on Iphone u need cydia, so yes it needs to be jailbroken

Was/will the app be submitted for official release in the App Store?

It was submitted, but Apple didnt accept it.  It's also possible to get it without jailbreaking it, but it has to be done in a special way that i dont remember.

2 Questions:
1) Why is the Shadow iOS app not in the app store?
2) Do I need a jailbroken iOS device to install the downloadable file for iOS on my iOS device?

Yeah, we've been seeing these issues a lot as of late, spoke with ryno today and there is an update underway which should solve most syncing options. In the meantime deleting the blockchain and resyncing should solve your issues for now.

That's what I was afraid of. Ok, will do.

for a faster sync, sync via lite mode then switch back to full mode.

or use the bootstrap Wink http://cryptos.us/forum/altcoins-blockchain/15-shadowcash-blockchain

Wallet stopped syncing out of nowhere.

Seems like last block is 192043 with the hash of 74cabf2a3ecd38cdcc0e91295bfcccf8f1ede927c39ebc3772a19c11b9488487

Possible fork?

Hi Propulsion.

The block explorer is showing a current block 192787 as I write. Also the hash of the block you have as 192043 doesn't match the hash of it on the explorer (47c5a75562d7a491ad53336dabc34475cb01e6125eb2f0eea879e9fae502faad).

Has it been like that for long? Running the repairwallet command might fix it.

Repairwallet returns true. Still stuck on the same block with the bad hash. This is a full daemon.

I like the fact our Dev is non-American

Dan Metcalf's recent hiccup vindicates my feeling in this regard. Surprisingly perhaps He has worked for the U.S. Homeland Security iirc (presumable based in N.Virginia)

ahem…
(i was a bit drunk/other when i wrote this but i stand by every word of it)

Homeland Security Wireless Inc. is quite a bit different from U.S. Homeland Security...

Thanks for the clarification (I did say that I may not have recalled correctly)
Really? He worked for this outfit?! I'm not sure what's worse… Wink just kiddin'

The other bit about the AWS images I do recall correctly tho.
