Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Oh i knew WHY it happened, just wanted to make sure it got picked up as it is still a defect. Then again, I should have emailed it in too.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Thanks for pointing this out. Somehow this snuck through the testing process. As Bob said, we're working on it.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

A simple workaround that cleans up many of these type issues is to close all of your running apps using the task bar and then power off/power on the device.

Double tap the HOME button, tap and hold on any running application in the displayed tab bar until it begins to shake and a red X appears. Click on the red X to close the app. Close all running apps. Use the Power Switch to power off and then back on the device.

What you should do is check to see if the image exists, if not, Remove it from the review and inform the user.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

We have created another update for Mobile Stogie! It is a lot of work but as you know, this is a passion project. It was submitted to Apple a few days ago so it should be approved within a week or so. Any problems that you may have with it should be fixed. This includes users deleting photos and other items.

The appearance of the app is also updated in this version. In addition to the functionality changes, there is a sleek new design that I think is quite attractive.

We are learning as we go but we're getting better and I think this version is a major improvement to the app. We've got a long list of features we want to add and modify and we plan to chip away at the list as time goes on.

Thanks again for all your support. I really want this to be the best cigar app out there so please keep sending suggestions and ideas to support@mobilestogie.com.

Sincerely,
Colin

By the way, if you delete a photo that is supposed to show up in one of your reviews it will not show up. The app doesn't store the photos separately from your camera roll. So if you want to see the photos, don't delete them. This remains true in the update forthcoming but the app won't shut down anymore if you delete a photo and then try to access it through the app.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

As long as the defect is fixed Its cool beans with me!! Software is all about graceful handling of things! The app should NEVER shut down on response to a user action, unless it is a closing action.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

The update is nice but it didn't correct the problem of going to the 'reviews' page, clicking on the little magnifying glass symbol and being taken immediately out of the app and back to my home page. Sorry - no win, no cigar.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Ahaa! More progress is made. The glitch regarding being closed out of the app by clicking on the search icon has been cured. These folks are really working to perfect this app and I'd like to say a big THANK YOU to them. I appreciate their efforts.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Even giving the issues, which are becoming ever more slight, I love this app for what it is. I would like to see weekly reference updates but given that it is not a full time gig for them it is what it is. I still give it two thumbs up. If you could work out a way to import the humidors from the previous version you would make a TON of people happy!

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

i love the random selection by shaking my phone.

I would like to see a "recently" smoked list, based on what i deleted, or something

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

You're right! But, with regard to importing your previous humidor, for me, at least, that's not so important. I have trouble keeping my humidor current. I mean, I've already re- loaded it but I keep forgetting to keep it current. Oh, well....

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Will this app ever be available for android?

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

I wish there was a way to upload your humi, or at least be able to upload the file for large maintenance and sharing....even an XLS would do.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

I really wish that I could do that. I have a couple very close friends who had a ton of cigars in the old version. The problem is that there isn't a way to export from the old version. If that was possible, then an import could be possible.

I would love to meet an android developer who would like to help with creating it. It is hard to find someone who can do that programming. With a wife now and a full time job and a part time job I need someone's help to do Android. If you know anyone, please send them my way.

Sincerely,
Colin

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

You can email your humidors out to yourself or others. Mobile Stogie Pro allows you to do that as a CSV file which works in excel.

You cannot modify the file and put it back into your device though. It would be cumbersome to then have you go through and make sure you want all the changes. There are also other little issues with this like if you put a space or apostrophe in somewhere it would totally mess up your whole database.

I hope that is a solution that works.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Is there any plans for an iPad version?

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Nice - thanks for pointing that out (*.csv).

The only other thing I wish would be after the 'Cuban' or 'Non-Cuban' when you get to the list that there was a way to skip down the letters better. If I want to go to RyJ I need to scroll alll the way down (or at least I think I do :D )

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Colin, Bob or anyone,

Pardon me if this has been addressed and I missed it, but what happens if I add a cigar to the reference database and then that cigar is 'officially' added in a subsequent update?

Thanks!

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

The cigar would be listed twice, once by you and once by us. We have no way to know if users have added cigars or what those cigars are. Trying to match on name or combination of maker and name would only result in more confusion.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Thanks, Bob!

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

I am watching for the Android version, too. CV

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Anybody heard anything from this outfit recently?? Tried contacting their support folks by email and got an "undeliverable" response. Did they just evaporate into the blue??

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Fantastic! Welcome to the Pacific northwest Ken.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Android friendly yet?

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

I think the app is dead. There hasn't been anything new in a long time.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

That sucks. Oh well. I've gone this long without one.. I can continue on.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

I have not seen any recent updates. Its a shame I really liked the reference section.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

I hope this app hasn't died. It does crash on me now, every time I try to request a database update.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

It works fine -- just don't request a database update (the db server is gone).

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

So... it works fine as long as you don't really use it?

Aside from the fact that database updates were, for me, much of the point, I get crashes when I attempt a number of other things with it, as well.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Mine is pretty stable -- I just add stuff locally and back up my iPhone frequently so that I do not lose my local database.

If I encounter a new cigar that is not in the dataase then I just add it. Yes, database updates from the server would be great, but they are not there so I worked around it.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

Well, manual cigar adds is one of the other things that gives me occasional crashes.

Re: Mobile Stogie moving to new owner!
 

^^ I cant manually add either. It immediately crashes
