@RTM: Are there plans?

bon_brannan says:
I think you are going to see a lot of Android tablets out there pretty soon and it would be a shame to miss this opportunity. I have a Xoom and would love to see a honeycomb app from you guys.

I hope you guys reconsider. I don't like Apples closed ecosystem and avoid them.

tmgllghr says:
I have the Xoom as well and was hoping RTM would have something coming out soon. I have been supplementing by putting my to do items in Evernote when using my tablet but keeping separate lists is not an ideal solution.

jthomerson says:
Could you please just enable us to install the android phone version on our tablets? It should work, and is definitely better than nothing. It isn't worth paying for Pro if we can't have it on our primary android devices.

Thanks!

brendan says:
jthomerson,
You are able to install the Android app on your tablet device if you have access to the Android Market. Currently, the Android Market is the only available method for installing the app.

Hope that helps!

brendan says:
As a clarification to my previous post, currently your device must come with the Android Market installed in order to install the app. The ability to access the Market from a rooted device, for example, is not sufficient.

I would also love to see an tablet optimised version of RTM, but fully appreciate the limited resources of a small dev team.
Would you guys be interested in making the Android app open source, to enable others (like myself) to help with the workload?
Posted 12 years ago
emily (Remember The Milk) says:
We don't have any plans to open source our Android app, sorry.

We do have an API available if anyone is interested in creating their own tablet optimised version.
Posted 12 years ago
michaelrshannon says:
Thanks for the reply Emily - the fact that you guys have an API is great (and makes sense for exactly these kind of situations), but in my opinion the official RTM app on Android is far better than any of the 3rd party ones, which is why I am keen to stick with your version.
Anyway, thanks for the reply, and keep up the great work!

I am another Xoom user who went pro for your excellent Android phone app. I would love a tablet optimised version for my Xoom.

Appreciate all the work you guys have done. I love RTM and will be supporting it for a long time :)

timestride says:
Xoom owner here as well. While the current Android app gets me by, some minor tweaks to take advantage of the extra screen real estate would be fantastic. There is about to be a deluge of Honeycomb tablets released on the market, so now would be a good time to start looking at enhancements for the Android app for tablets. Regardless, keep up the good work!

emily (Remember The Milk) says:
At this point in time, I'm not really sure what our plans are for Android tablets, sorry. :(

We're a small team, and our mobile apps tend to be pretty big commitments (our Android, iPhone, and iPad apps each took a year of development). We'll definitely be keeping an eye on the feedback we receive about this, though!

Since they are standardizing android apps accross multiple devices; phones, tablets, google tv would love to see an app for honeycomb that way I'll eventually be able to put it on my TV as well.

Please allow viewing multiple lists (per screen space) at the same time.
This would be nice for any version, including web. We all have WIDE screens these days!

Isn't it possible to have a common code base for the Android tablet version using the Fragments API? You have the same views as fragments, and the OS figures out how to arrange them optimally based on the available screen size.

vinegartom says:
Pretty sure you're getting the idea on this - would just like to add a +1 for a Honeycomb/tablet version of the Android app. Also a Xoom user (noticing that's quite popular here...). As a number of people have said, even a few tweeks to make more use of the available space, etc. Would be great as a start. Until you go for a full tablet version, of course... :-)

Thanks!

But if that's not on the way, I think the ability to change font-size (like the Twitter app on my tablet), might be a good feature, while running the same app on the phone and the tablet. (I use it on HTC Flyer & HTC Desire.)

+1 for this and let me say that i'm worried about the importance that RTM is not giving to this app... Now I have a tablet and i need RTM in it in its best shape. The android app has some problems so this is a great oportunity to send a message to android/tablet users telling us if you want us to use RTM or not... You cannot have an app for IPAD and say you have no plans for an app for Android Tablets. Pleaaaase don't create a problem around Android... Honeycomb is of great importance!

Second what william.furr said

"Isn't it possible to have a common code base for the Android tablet version using the Fragments API? You have the same views as fragments, and the OS figures out how to arrange them optimally based on the available screen size.

http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/02/android-30-fragments-api.html"

It should require very minimal work to get this at least partly tablet optimised.

+1! - although I am itching to get a Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet, and I hear they have developed their own "App Store" which only lists honeycomb optimized apps. Terrified Evernote wouldn't be possible to load on it! (they say they allow side loading, but I have no idea about normal market access)

I just bought a Galaxy Tab 10.1.

When I configured my Google account all the settings from my T-Mobile G2, including installed applications, came over automatically to the tablet. I was happy to see that Remember the Milk was now installed.

I launched it, expecting to have some problem since this thread seems to say it does not work on tablets, but everything works great. Very happily running RTM on this tablet. No glitches or weirdness - it just works great.

Mobile apps are a basic for the kind of service RTM does. So my pro account is going to expire in less than a month. It would be nice if you make a statement about your intentions for android tablets. If RTM has no interest in android tablets, that's ok, but please let us know.

bbuknight says:
As a fellow Android programmer, I am not completely understanding the issue here. Layouts are fairly easy to implement for different display categories so there is no need for a separate tablet edition. Simply make a layout for tablets within your already existing RTM project. That way there is only one app on the market and no room for confusion.
I am surprised a tablet layout wasn't already created during the initial design and implementation of RTM Android. Is the problem simply the amount of time spent testing so many devices and developing workarounds for their individual quirks?
Posted 11 years ago
bbuknight says:
BTW, if you are not willing to make the Android app open source, perhaps you could consider allowing volunteers to sign a non-disclosure agreement so they can make the modifications. I for one volunteer! =)

@bbuknight I'd be happy to join in on this - also happy to sign an NDA if appropriate. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find a small team of Android developers willing to take on the project under the supervision of the RTM staff.

Why's it taking so long to come out with a tablet version already? The iPad app is just amazing, but I refuse to drop Android for iOS just for one single, amazingly beautiful. I use RTM alongside Evernote for EVERYTHING, and the Android app is the whole reason I went pro. Plus the Evernote team already came out with a tablet-optimzied version of their app and it looks just stunning, so I KNOW the RTM must have something in the works. Or at least, I hope so..
