    First time using the app, seem to be having issues. When adding a new job, when I hit save I get an 'Unfortunately, RacketsHQ has stopped' error. Occurs whether Dropbox account is linked or unlinked. Using a Samsung S6 Edge on Android 6.0.1. Anyone else encounter this issue?

    I wish I had the resources... But without a iPhone/iPod and a Macbook... I cant develop for iOS.

    What you can do is use it with an android emulator on your pc.

    Interesting app, sounds like there's has been a few updates throughout the thread which is always a good sign.

    What version of Android are you running? And it just closes on the first time you run it?

    I am on 6.0.1 with a Note 5. This is the first time I tried using this app, and every time I try to save a job, the app crashes. I tried multiple times, and I never got past that.

    Oddly enough, even after clearing the cache and data, uninstalling and reinstalling... My Rackets are still there. I also did not add a Dropbox account this time

    The Rackets Info is stored in a XML file located on your internal storage. It should be under the RacketsHQ folder.

    Thats why clearing the cache keeps the rackets.

    Is it still giving you an error when opening??

    Same problem for me unfortunately. Cleared cache, uninstalled, reinstalled. If I go to Player's Profile>Rackets, hit the '+', enter info and save, it will save the racket. If I do the same procedure from Stringing>Overview>'+', it crashes when I hit save.

    Just confirming, that app hasn't crashed on me the past week... :)
    Keep up the good work!

    Small note on the statistics: it appears that it does not include jobs just added. Need to close/reopen app, before they are included.

    A minor(?) request: about currency, will it be possible to add a "custom" currency selection in the settings, allowing us to be able to enter own local currency abbreviations? My local currency is "Kr." (kroner)...

    Glad to hear that. I can definitely add in the currencies. I based it in a way that its kinda hard coded in unfortunately... I can do some work with that.

    Thanks for the feedback on statistics. I will take a look!

    Hi....

    Found a few other small issues to challenge you with..

    In the email/SMS template, one can use the tension-values and tension-unit placeholders.
    But as you store the tension-values in "lb" in the xml-file, it show this value, even that the job has been specified with kg as tension-unit.
    So if I have done a job at 10.5 kg, the value will be stored as 26 lb.
    And this combination will result in the email as; Tension: 26 kg

    Small note on the ads... while using the phone in portrait, the bottom ad does cover the content of the screen in that area. Most significant in "Settings", the lowest option (string color: yes/no) is invisible until tilting the phone into landscape.

    Ahhh great find on the email template. I will add in some logic to fix that.

    I tried to make the ads as non intrusive as possible... with the settings screen im not sure how to fix it, but i will give it a try.

    All of a sudden RacketsHQ is hanging after I press the "x" on the full screen ad. The ad closes and a white box shows "Loading... with a frozen progress circle and also shows "Loading Data...". I have to force quit the app after that as it will remain in that state indefinitely. I have tracked it down to having dropbox enabled. To fix I have shut off both data and wifi on my phone, opened RacketsHQ, unlink dropbox, closed RacketsHQ. After this I re-enable wifi and data and open RacketsHQ and all is fine again (until I re-enable dropbox).
