pm me details

sorry dont pm me , I am not full member.

Sending a PM in a few minutes.

I am interested in beta testing your app and meet all requirements. I use a few of those exchange but my only concern is if this app requires API keys to access these exchanges.

Sounds dodgy as fuck  ;)

Interested, will PM later when I am free

And thats just because I have a brand new account? Or are you against the whole idea of apps that can trade using API?

Send u pm w8 for responce

Hi,
I am a full member and can help you with this. I am trading on different platforms if you consider me please PM me with the details

BR,
Gondel

You have a brand new account so yes. API access to every trading platform a Full Member or above has? Why this restriction? I'll tell you what I see when I read that, we want only people who have been active here for a long time who speculatively have larger holders than the newbs, and we need you to enter your API keys into our beta app ....

pm sent

Full member or above because I am only looking for feedback from senior and active traders, Cryptocurrency is still in infancy and the only decent feedback I can get is from someone who trades actively, not someone who's still wondering why he can't buy bitcoins easily using his paypal account. Full members (hopefully) know enough about crypto threats that they would use restricted API keys (even read-only).

For stealing money, creating a wallpaper app with a hot woman's face on the icon would've been far easier task than asking seasoned members to beta-test :)

I think recruiting full member and above is fair, but potentialy disclosing API keys is serious too. If you pay half up front, that could be a work around. Members can create a new account, use the 0.05 provided to trade and no need to worry about loosing coins. Then you can send them the remaining 0.05 when they submit their test report.

I had my concerns and doubts about this beta test. The OP and I had a conversation through PM and he seems like a genuine guy. Needless to say I am going to beta test this app and will let everyone know how it turns out.

Hey OP, I've sent you a PM ;D

Do we need to log in with our accounts in your app?

No the app does not need your account information. It needs API for trading but can work in read-only mode if you don't want to enter the API. I have sent the link to the first round of beta testers. I will select more based on their feedback.

I am responding here instead of responding to all PMs. I have already selected the first group of beta testers, if you were not contacted please stay and I will e-mail you if any slot is available.

I'm beta testing this app after conversing with OP. To be safe I'm using an account that doesn't hold much value but will get the job done.

I can honestly say that it seems legit from my point of view. My device is rooted and I have xPrivacy running on it which is how I know the app didn't ask permission from parts of my phone that it has no need to see but did ask for internet access and the device id).

It loads quick and it's easy to choose your exchange, once the API key is entered it showed my balances and trade history.

Transaction post instantly. I sat down and sold/bought a couple coins and watched them be processed on the screen from my Cryptsy account on the computer. I was able to set high and low marks for buying and selling and watched it sell at those makers. When canceling transactions it was just as fast,  instant.

There are a few things I would like to see implemented, which I will tell OP once the deadline is reached.

EDIT: Phone likes to auto-correct me!

I am currently beta testing the app. I ran into a few bugs but they were fixed in the new version. Overall the app is very impressive. It makes trading on the supported exchanges extremely easy than using a phone's browser. The graphs it displays are nice and remind me of bitcoinwisdom. It allows various time plotted graphs (5 min, 15 min, 30 min, etc). The app even gives access to the btc-e chatbox and has price notifications. I am very impressed with this app and the very few bugs experiences considering it is in beta. This app has it all and can replace the functions of many other apps.

I too liked the troll box. Wish there was a way to chat back and the Cryptsy tell box would be nice too.

Yeah its possible to add chat back but that would require users to login to btc-e using their credentials! Not something we would encourage or support so that puts it off the list. One funny thing is that BTC-e censors the trollbox (curse words etc are removed from the trollbox by moderators) while the Cointra app shows everything so you might see messages there that aren't visible on trollbox!

Will look into the Cryptsy chatbox addition.

Some testers could not download, it seems like Google beta program does not work in all regions. So I am opening again for 2 more testers.

which regions do not apply ?

provide detailed feedback ?
More detail please.

Details are provided in PM to those who want to beta-test as per the terms on the first post.
