Title: How many use Android devices?
Post by: shifty2112 on April 23, 2012, 06:22:10 PM: Not sure where to put this topic, there is no general forum. Do more people use Android devices or Apple devices? I am in the process of writing my own program to keep track of my cards I own instead of a spreadsheet. I might want to share with others if there is a want for it.

what do you mean by a card app? one to make cards or one to view current cards?
Title: Re: How many use Android devices?
Post by: Master KChief on May 19, 2012, 11:39:27 PM: Yeah, just one with the entire card database and to create decks and test draws with. Nothing all that fancy-schmancy, just something to view all the cards. I have one for YGO on my iPhone and it works remarkably well.

Never was a fan of the card creator thing, and we're probably lightyears away from having RTS/Live/etc on a mobile device.

You should check out Google Voice. Free calls anywhere, you just can't receive calls.

Title: Re: How many use Android devices?
Post by: lp670sv on May 31, 2013, 10:25:46 AM: I would seriously doubt it possible, I haven't really heard on any really good windows emulators for android.
Title: Re: How many use Android devices?
Post by: findinghaven on June 02, 2013, 01:39:15 PM: They are all extremely limited. As Microsoft plannd, I'm sure. I don't see any Redemption apps available in the marketplace as well.
Title: Re: How many use Android devices?
Post by: lp670sv on June 02, 2013, 02:35:27 PM: it's not so much that Microsoft planned it that way, it's just that mobile phones aren't meant to run desktop OSs especially along side a mobile OS. Emulators in general aren't that great on mobile phones (I ended up uninstalling all but my PSOne emulator because of the horrible input lag and those are all emulating systems that are much less powerful).

Post by: wyatt_marcum on June 02, 2013, 10:39:20 PM: I prefer Android. and an app like this would be amazing.
Title: Re: How many use Android devices?
Post by: Ironica on June 02, 2013, 10:58:35 PM: Android all the way. I left apple a few months ago and have never regretted it.
Title: Re: How many use Android devices?
Post by: findinghaven on June 08, 2013, 12:19:10 PM: Nothing can beat Apple when it comes to media creating, editing, etc. But the prices are still insane, which is why MicroSoft prospers. Most don't want to pay double for the equivalent system. Last I saw, the guts are still all made in the same places.
