    I got the app to load properly and my z10 stl4 shows registered in google play services but when I go to the " installed apps" tab it just keeps loading..i cleared out the download folder and downloaded some apps....I tried all the rebooting and reloading suggestions in this thread.....the big problem im having is a major battery drain,(lost 20percent in 20minutes) I think the app is still trying to load the installed apps from google play in background , going back to v1.5 for now, fantastic app tho...... anyone experience this
    This is now fixed in 1.9.5 !

    James, thank's for your awesome work. Everything works great on my Q10. May My carrier and device show up correctly in Google Play Store. Content is displayed correctly corresponding to my country settings.

    May I request some features?

    • By default, Snap starts with the Category view. To search files, the search dialog must first be selected from the sidebar. Can search be on the lower navigation bar for easier access?
    • If search dialog is displayed, the entry field is not active. You must first click into the field to enter a search term. Can that field be active for input without the need to click on it?



    What do you think about it?
    Both fixed in 1.9.5! Thanks for the suggestions

    Suggestion.
    Can you name the BAR files with the version number.
    So instead of snap latest version, it will be called snap 1.9

    Obviously this would be from the next update onwards!

    Ask and you shall receive! The link still should remain as Snap-latest.bar, but when it downloads, the filename will have the proper version

    App works great on the Q10 - would love to see an option to hide the bottom bar to increase the viewable screen size for the Q10.
    I noticed that the app only shows 20 apps in the search results even though it has found more. Are you aware of this bug James?


    Posted via CB10
    Yes I'm aware of this! I had to do a bit of refactoring for 1.9.5 before being able to tackle this one. Next update will include the ability to load the next set of results when you scroll down to the end of the list.

    1.9.5 Beta is released!

    You should all get an "Update available" message in 1.9.0

    Unfortunately, since this has to be sideloaded, I don't include a direct link to the new version.

    (I think as a side project, I'm going to finally figure out how to directly install signed bars on the device.)

    The update notification persists upon on a deinstall/restart/reinstall of Snap 1.9.5. Might be a bug.

    1. Still unable to find Google Play services (com.google.android.gms).
    2. Requesting option to search from My Apps versus having to menu back to Browse and click Search.
    3. Keyboard shortcuts for keyboard devices would be a nice touch.

    How'd you all get 0.0.0.0?? haha that is bizarre. Hopefully you don't mind for a couple days and I will update the "latest version" on my server to be "0.0.0.0" so it won't bother you

    Is there any way to get better quality icons? Everything is loading in lower resolution with one particular app not loading an icon at all.

    This may not be the right tread but I thought to ask... When installing apk's from Snap (or from any other source) we get the usual permission warning, stating that it will be possible to modify permissions from setting once the app is installed.
    The reality is that permission can only be modified on bar apps; apk files do show a list of permission in settings, but all of the switches are blanked out. Is this something that James's magic can help us with, or do we just have to accept that we have no control on apk's permissions?

    I wasted about 5 hours on Friday trying to get a GSF ID, as I was having serious issues with Genymotion (probably need a new laptop/notebook)... I wish I had waited a little now. Loving the new version... how easy is that!

    This app is amazing!! The apps that I downloaded from the Amazon Store that constantly crashed are now working! The apps that
    wouldn't work from 1mobile I have uninstalled and downloaded via Snap are working perfectly. I now have my much needed banking app on my BlackBerry.

    I have fallen in love with my Z10 all over again!!

    I have made my donation... which is well deserved!!

    Hi,

    am I right, that Snap still searches the US version of the play store?

    From my experience, it doesn't. It defaults to your location. Though I would prefer to have an option of choosing a particular Country or Carrier.
