Has anyone heard anything about an app for android, and will PCGS be making and app for it? I would like to get the app for my phone but the only app available is for iphone or ipad.

    Why?
  • morgandollar1878morgandollar1878 Posts: 4,006 ✭✭✭✭✭
    For the exact same reasons that PCGS made the app for the iphone... and because I know that not everyone has an iphone.

    not that i've seen... i usually just bring it up through the website via the web browser... works well w/ nice big pics (for a phone)

    not perfect, not as conveniet, but it works for me... i'd love a CoinFacts app too where i can just get a search screen to type what i'm looking for rather than go through multiple pages...

    I'd second the request for the Andriod app. Andriod-based phones total sales have surpassed iPhones in sales, so I would think they'd satisfy more folks with an Android version.

    I'd get it if they had it for the Droid too.

    I've got an android and no app. I want the app. I'll pledge $1 towards the cross software engineering fund to bring the app to android. One, whole, dolllar, coin.
  • Count me in for an Android version. Already have the iPhone version on my iPod Touch.

    Thanks,

    Anyone else out there think that this would be a good idea?

    +1

    I think that the Android device market share has or soon will exceed that of the iPhone. It would seem like a good market to pursue!

    I have it for the iPhone. I wish the photos were of a little higher quality so you could zoom in on them closer(for the MS examples at least) for better detail. Without being able to zoom in closer it is darn hard to tell the difference between many of the MS examples for Merc Dimes which does not make it very useful for me. Also, just as important as the photos, there should be text descriptions like you see in "Making The Grade" or "Photograde".

    I enjoy the app as a novelty but for the two reasons stated above it is not very useful to me. If you are collecting circulated coins I bet it would be a lot more useful. My 2 cents. image

    We plan on having Droid apps.

    We are working on a major mobile app. currently.

    I just don't have enough programmers to do everything at once.

    Lower your SecurePlus grading fees, give away TrueViews for all SecurePlus submissions and hire more programmers... there, you have your solution! You're welcome! image

    Don't have a droid, and I do enjoy the iPhone app from time to time.

    But, have any of you droid users tried something like Read It Later?
  • coinkid855coinkid855 Posts: 5,012 ✭✭✭
    Any updates on this? It's been quite a while! =(
