Installs, gives a message about being for an older version of Android, and then an empty feed 😕
Used to be the best, but developer just have decided to drop support then never removed it from play store
Doesn't work. Just an error that it can't connect to the server.
Hasn't been updated, can't connect to server.
After Galnet came back about a month ago, this app stopped working. I will change this review to five stars if the app goes up and running again.
No Server and not up to date for Android.
App servers not working
Every time I refresh it, the dates reflect current GMT. So today the 15 or 20 most recent articles are dated Feb 12, and the rest inexplicably change to Jan 21. If the dates were right this would be more useful, but the UI is pretty unimaginative. It is easier to just bookmark galnet in my browser on my phone. If the UX were to allow sorting, searching, and perhaps swiping from article to article this would be more useful than the site.
Nice app, live being able to keep up on galactic news when not in the pilots chair or at a station. However, it'd be nice if the UI got an upgrade to match the nice graphics that came out with powerplay. Or maybe just a icon/banner to match each power.
Great app for keeping up with the news of Elite:Dangerous. One request would be to make the android back button go the same place as the back button inside the app itself. On my Nexus 5 the internal app back button goes right back to the last article I clicked on. However the Android back button goes to some unexpected place in the articles list. Small issue, otherwise great app! And no ads!! Love it.
This app is great now I can read the Galnet feed on something other than my PC. The screen resolution on the PC is so high the fonts are not readable. Now I don't need to even load the game to look. Many thanks.
Edit: Tried the app yesterday and was able to view everything no problem! Thank you for the reply tho! Still four out of five only due to there being a better app for same use. The other is updated more frequently as I can see posts from today on it. For some reason I am unable to view anything, my feed comes up completely empty and refreshing and re-downloading have not helped. I'm using the Sony Xperia Z3 and have used other game companion apps without trouble. Any suggestions?
Brilliant little app that let's you view Galnet while having a bit of downtime / R&R away from your ship. Style wise it's inkeeping with Elites art direction which helps for immersion if you care for that sort of thing. Fly safe Commanders
I like that this app is simplistic & not over the top with visual effects and features, plus the orange on black is very fitting! **I am however slightly annoyed that the list of articles always scrolls down a page or so, every time I close one of the full articles & go back to the list. This causes me to constantly lose my place. I also wish there was a way to "mark all as read" as opposed to "unread". Nevertheless, this is the ONLY Galnet app I'll use! Thank you for the app, your time, & your efforts!
Great app, loving checking this news along with the 'normal' headlines every morning. One small bug - if there's a queue of, say, 10 unread stories, and I read one then press the back button, the display shows older stories from perhaps a week before. I have to scroll back up to the new stories again. Same happens for every unread story, each time. But really, it's not too bad, would just be perfect 5 stars were that to be fixed :-)
I only have 2 problems: The dates are centred around our time, not the game, so the years are wrong; and when you exit an article, the main feed has scrolled down quite a bit
I love it, two small problems, the first is the back button issue which has been mentioned every second review, My second isn't really a problem but I would love it if there was a button for Mark all as read next to the mark all as unread button. Oh and are there thoughts of a widget?
Superb app! works flawlessly. One feature I'd like to see is the stardate at the top (I promise it won't eat any screen real-estate). I just saw a news item that included a date and wondered what the current stardate was...
Great little companion to elite dangerous. Works flawlessly. As others have mentioned a few UI changes/tweaks would be nice but not essential. Thanks for the effort thats been put into this great app!
Liked the app. Disliked having to go back to the listing all the time. Suggestion: Add a Next button and/or a previous.
A excellent app for when I am out and about the only thing I want is a "Mark all as read" option as the unread one was accidentally clicked and there isn't a quick way to reverse it.
After reading the top story the app doesn't rest the list back to the top. You have to scroll back up every time.
I really like this app. However I would love to see a mark all as read option for when I get behind and stand no chance of catching up but don't want them to look unread.
Add a "Mark all as read" button. As I have just installed this app I don't need to read from August and before. Otherwise pretty awesome.
Makes for fine reading while docked in the comfort of your own hanger or away from your magnificent starship. Do not use while flying. Distracted pilots die.
Brilliantly well done. A notification feature would be fantastic. If you could set notifications based on key words, then that would be amazing :)
Absolute balls. No feed and says network error or can't connect to server. Think Il just delete your pish app and go back to the website I use.
