New Android app for playing on OGS

Hey Nathan, that looks like a very nice beginning. I looked at doing exactly what you are doing a while ago ( Alex’s Android Client) however I gave up when I realised the only way to log into the app is for somebody to generate a password on the site, then write it down, then type it into their phone. Worst of all, the password could not be edited and looked something like “f3a7416323384cae2f98916ddb950693”.

Since nobody will ever do that (at least not more than 10 enthusiasts) I failed to see the the point in sinking lots of hours into this project and gave it up.

I was wondering if you found a workaround for that.

PS: I logged into your app using the hard method, so I guess I’m one of those 10 enthusiasts :). Crashes 100% on the API 23 emulator when trying to join a game and there is no logging to shed any light on what happens.
