Hi Android-phone friends!

We recently did an update to the BYC app in the Google Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.backyardchickens.byc

While we really still suggest people use either the browser version of BYC or the PWA version (here), we recognize that it's important that we have a presence in the various app ecosystems.

The app in the Play Store isn't perfect, but we've improved it a bit. Hopefully less buggy and now the attachment and image uploads should work!

What we ask of you:
1) Install the app and test it out.
2) If you have any problems, come back here and let us know.
3) If you like it and want to support us, give it a five-star review.

(We totally understand that our rating on the Play Store is poor in part because of app performance, but we also don't think it's very fair that people are rating the app poorly because they don't like how we moderate. Hopefully a bunch of five-star reviews from legitimate members will bump our rating a bit.)
 
Ok, so I downloaded and it unfortunately immediately crashed. I cleared the cache but it still doesn't want to work.
Could be on my end though .

You know, besides the loading circle (which doesn't seem to have any effect), it seems to be going pretty good for me. There's a couple of personal things about it that I don't like, which one of those things has nothing to do with the app, but the other thing is I can't enable push notifications on it, but besides those, I'm actually enjoying it better than using the browser right now. If it wasn't for those couple of things (so far), I'd probably almost want to stick with the app. I want to try it out for a few days (already put my app timer on it, lol), and if it keeps running as smoothly as it has been for me, I'll see about writing a positive review. :)
