Introducing the Snapzu Is Funner (For Android)

Hi Snappers,

I just wanted to let you know that I have released the first version of my native Snapzu client for android. It is called Snapzu Is Funner and you can find it in the Play Store.

Right now, you can:

  • Log into multiple accounts and easily switch between them
  • Quickly visit your tribe memberships
  • Open posts in the integrated browser
  • Read comments in a native interface
  • Seamlessly add to the conversation
  • Easily view your level and unread messages
  • View any tribe or user

Here is an imgur album of some of the features.

P.S. There is a donation button in the settings. Do not hit it unless you still plan on using Snapzu when the official API comes out in a few months and the full app is released.

EDIT: An update will be pushed in a few hours that includes the badges for message count and level.

EDIT 2: Update pushed. Go check it out!

EDIT 3: No one likes the name. Suggest a new one in the comments.

    what about "Tapzu - snapzu for mobile"?

    Edit: if you take this name, can I count on you using the name "Snapper" to refer to users of snapzu? much obliged.

      I read this and thought "Hmm yeah that sounds good". Then left.
      I had to come back to say that this name is SUPER catchy. Please seriously consider calling your app "Tapzu - Snapzu for mobile" or "Tapzu - for Snapzu" or something similar. It just rolls off the tongue so easily.

      No, no, no. No fish, please.

      Edit: Love the banner on that tribe, though.

      I also agree that this is a great name for the app. I was sitting here trying to think of something on my own, but can't come up with anything better than that.

        Agreed. Tapzu is so easy to say, and it isn't already the name of something else. I don't know about calling us "Snappers," but it does sound better than any of my own ideas.

    While the app is awesome, I think you should change the name. Connecting your app to a rival app for a more popular sight seems like it could cause potential problems. Also, in the case that reddit is fun is no longer a popular app, the name will make no sense to new members.

      Good points. I was thinking of naming it Instasnap for Snapzu. Although, I guess it is kinda too late to rename as I already have the tribe and artwork.

        You could always make a new tribe and get new artwork. :/

        If this app is good and you give it a better name, I'll give you $0.99 for it. That's a legitimate offer.

          This seconded. Please no ads! This community WILL pay. We're a good bunch with a high level of developers etc.

    Is there currently a way to view your home stream? I can't seem to find it if there is.

    Pretty good App so far one question is why are there in-app purchase permissions?

    • SubZeroJake (edited 8 years ago)

      Instead of advertisements I put a donation option in the app. Of course it is not feature-complete yet, but when it is I believe people would prefer to pay for continued development and support instead of having to deal will ads.

      Thanks for trying it and giving feedback!

        Hey thanks for the reply! now it makes sense why it's there.

    Looks good so far. The interface kinda reminds me of reddit sync, which is pretty cool. My only request would be allowing for users to install the app to the SD card. (not sure how much control you have over that) My phone has limited storage, and I won't be able to keep it on there without that option.
