Are you a developer? Want OGS on a mobile device? (OLD Android and iOS app development thread)

Dear all,

I’ve released an open-source android client to play correspondence go for some time now, and I’ve just added some simple beta-code to allow playing OGS correspondence games on android smartphone.
It looks like it’s working for me, although nothing shiny can be done for now:

  • you can only play a move on every game where it’s your turn
  • you can also accept challenges, but not propose new ones
    nothing more for now, but I think it’s enough to start with, because the rest can be done less frequently on a real computer.

You can find it here: https://github.com/cerisara/DragonGoApp
I’m currently beta-testing it: you’re welcome to also try it !
After a few days of beta-testing to locate bugs, I plan to release a version on F-droid.

I have one question: do you know how to access the chat with the API ? Because the app is unable to see chats/comments for now, and I think that’s really the next feature to add.

Thanks for your feedback
