Android update: Getting the Android tools setup has been an adventure. I've roped in someone who knows a bit more about that world than me. I may pay him to build the app, rather than me struggle through it. It's a very very different way of building apps than iOS is.

Android users, the Android app is complete! Requires Android 10 or above.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....theracingline

Launches with the same features that iOS 1.0 launched with. More to be added over the next few weeks. Core functionality is there - all calendars, series, race times in your time zone, notifications, and ability to turn series on and off to your choosing.

For those who like technical nonsense, this isn't some poor conversion from the iOS app. It also isn't a hybrid application. This is a complete rebuild of the app from scratch in Kotlin. The iOS app is build in Swift/SwiftUI. These are both native applications.

Awesome, I hope you enjoy it!

We've found a couple of bugs, but nothing serious. Those will be fixed. Now working on cleaning up the backend to make it less likely that duff/incorrect/broken data being pushed out to devices

Sounds like quite an effort.

What challenges are there with the conversion type approach.

Hybrid applications tend to have a single codebase, that either spits out an Android and iOS app at the end, or provides a single app that works on both. So you really only have one codebase to look after, which means it'll probably be quicker to develop the app, and you're only maintaining one codebase after it.

The downside of the hybrid applications is they tend to be slower performing than native applications, since you're not using the products exactly the way Google and Apple intended. You also tend to not get the latest and greatest features - so AR for example. Granted, neither of those are really an issue for TRL as it's a very lightweight app, and I won't be using hardcore new features. Although you're only maintaining one codebase, it will probably be harder to maintain - as Android and iOS change, it's going to break your third party hybrid app. Whilst if it's written in native Swift (iOS) and Kotlin (Android), it will most likely be backwards compatible for many years.

For me, it was because I'd done things backwards. I never intended on building an Android app (I'm an iOS developer really), but because I had so many requests I couldn't ignore it. The iOS app was already released, so I had the choice of do a hybrid app for Android (and either keep or bin the iOS app), or do Android 'properly' with Kotlin, so it was done properly - with the help of a much more experienced developer than me.

Im hoping it being built in Kotlin means I won't have to do any major re-writes of the Android version any time soon!

On a kinda related techy note, it's been interesting doing development on both platforms and seeing the pros and cons of both.

Apple Pros:
- The tools are incredible. They literally do just work. Download Xcode and just start
- The framework I used (SwiftUI) is super slick and simple to use.
- OS support is amazing. My app works all the way down to the old iPhone 6S

Apple Cons:
- Expensive. £100 a year just to be a developer
- Some frameworks (StoreKit especially) need some serious updates
- Not a very flexible app store system. You don't have many options available to you.

Android Pros:
- App submission is faster. The submission and approval process is almost immediate, unlike several days for Apple
- Cheaper. £30 a year to be a developer
- The Play Store submission has so many options it's unreal. A/B testing, incredible analytics, etc

Android Cons:
- Android Studio barely works, and the simulator doesn't. You HAVE to have a physical device to work on
- The Play Store has lots of options, but some don't work, and the layout is a mess
- OS support is terrible. There are people with 2 year old devices that can't run my app because they run Android 9

It's funny. The systems are what you'd expect from the 2 sides, even as a developer. Apple is more expensive, but it works beautifully - but it forces you down certain routes with how you build things. Android is scruffy, but god damn the amount of options you have available to you is amazing - you have complete freedom.

Overall I prefer the Apple system, but it's obvious why many would prefer Android.

- Added a larger widget for iPhone 12/13 Pro Max screen sizes
- Added ability to display race distances (300km races for SuperGT for example)
- Added ability to filter races based on the following things
-- Series type (single seater, touring car etc)
-- Session type (race, qualifying)
-- Session date (see races between set dates)

I missed the comparison of Apple android when you posted it a few months ago. Interesting and funny how it is pretty much what you’d have guessed.

Almost a year into this app, time for another update.

I've added the following series for 2022:

- Goodwood (FoS and revival)
- Isle of Man TT
- Indy 500 Qualifying
- Le Mans Weekend (Practice, Qualifying and Test Day)
- GT Open
- Extreme E

Some of these may not display until closer to the time. (Some currently support events may not be displaying as there is no confirmed data yet - GTWC Australia as an example)

Currently working on an App Store submission with the following features
- support for 'All Day' events like Goodwood
- better notification text for 'All Day' events
- fixed a bug where the filter applied to the Calendars view
- moved widgets out of beta

I'm about to publish a complete re-write of the app for iPhone / iPad / Apple Watch.

- New Dashboard - see the week ahead easily
- Events - sessions and series are now grouped into events, so you can see what series are at what circuit each week
- See when an event is live - live indicators beside in progress sessions
- More series - Added IndyNxt, F1 Academy and more coming soon
- More detailed rally events - individual stages now have start times!
- Improved widget reliability - should now refresh more reliably
- Improved watch app - easier readability
- All new interfaces - because I like fancy stuff
- More new features coming soon
- More new series coming soon

This update utilises some new technology, so does require iOS17, iPadOS17 and watchOS10. However, the old version will continue to work on iOS16 and below, and Android. And although the old version won't get the new features, it will get the new series as I add them. As always, this is a subscription app. If that isn't your thing then I understand.
