  • market://search?q=pname:bostone.droidin (lite)
  • market://search?q=pname:com.bostone.droidin (paid)

DroidIn is featured on Archos 5 tablet

Archos announced their first Android tablet to the world. Don’t try to find one online right now – sold out. DroidIn-Lite comes preinstalled and appears right in the middle of this shiny new console

DroidIn becomes first app at Archos’ Android Market

French manufacturer of tablet devices Archos just opened alternative Android Market (evidently their upcoming Android tablet does not qualify to run Google version of it). We are proud to claim first spot (after “Hello World” no less).
If you are Android developer – here’s your chance to host your app on Appslib.com. Paid applications cannot yet be hosted but we’ve been hinted that that support is coming shortly.

Here’s DroidIn running in Archos emulator (not the
actual device)

DroidIn v. 1.5.2 – Invite is open to everyone

“Invite” has been spiced up and behaves now as a dialog rather than view. It also is now made available to users of Lite version. You will find it in the menu

DroidIn v. 1.5.1 has been released

Fresh off the heels of grand 1.5.0 comes 1.5.1 release that fixes annoying duplicate updates bug

Twitter API is down

If you are experiencing difficulties to post to Twitter from DroidIn or even enable Twitter support, please be aware that according to Twitter Support Blog

Due to defensive measures we’ve taken against the ongoing denial-of-service attack, some Twitter clients are unable to communicate with our API, and many users are unable to tweet via SMS.

We are working as quickly as possible to restore our full service.

Here comes DroidIn with Inbox (v.1.5.0 is out)

Yes, yes – that’s right! Mobile LinkedIn doesn’t have it, iPhone’s app doesn’t have it. But DroidIn does!

You asked and we listened (sorry it took some time) . Starting with 1.5.0 release both DroidIns have Inbox feature. The inbox has some limitations: Lite users will be able to check the list and open messages. Full version users will be able to reply but only to the original sender. They will also have message sent to their own mailbox.

The search now is available to all users, the UI was updated

Please report any bugs or just give us a feedback – it’s always nice to hear from you

DroidIn v. 1.2.2 is released

DroidIn v.1.2.2 fixes critical bug reported by user, when the app crashes upon restarting. There are also minor tweaks to UI, for example increased size of tab buttons for easier navigation
