Thanks Julian. I have just successfully downloaded the version on this email as the other 2 later ones with/without Air would not install. I created a test area in Xerte and they have loaded fine so now for some real content!!! (Samsung Galaxy i900) Will add QR code when complete
Thanks
Julie

Yes, still working on it. I've just packed it up again for you, and could do with a small group of people to test / feedback etc.

http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/downloads/application.apk

I could also do with some sample learning spaces for demos etc. It also now supports 10 page types from toolkits: text, bullets, textGraphics, imageViewer, textVideo and all the navigators, so you can produced structured content and include text, graphics, sound and video. I think that goes a long way to start with...

You can now publish a learning space from the phone for other users to subscribe to. This is a beta feature: it writes xml to our web server - this may change. So you can, using just the phone, create a learning space, populate it with content, and publish it: I think this is potentially the game changer.

Please try creating some spaces, publishing them, post the QR codes here so others can attempt to subscribe etc, and let me know comments,

Julian

Hello
Not heard anything on the android app for a while. Is it still in development and are there any other features we can test out?
Thanks
Julie

To build for iOS I need the relevant Apple certificates.

This, apparently, is how to get one:

At 12 pages long, that's supposed to be an idiots guide to the process. What century is this?

I'm going to have to either root my HTC or get a new device just for this! :-(
What do you need help with to get the iOS version working?

Updated app to try from http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/xerte/downloads/applicatin.apk . Comments and ideas really welcomed at this early stage...

Screenshots
The home screen shows your learning spaces. A learning space is a collection of learning resources. The buttons allow you to add a space, delete a space, and sort by name, created date or number of views. Ultimate idea is to allow users to share their learning spaces (somehow)

[cid:image025.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

Here's a learning space, showing most of the supported things so far:

[cid:image026.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

You can add content by scanning QR codes (can't screenshot that).

A toolkits folder with one learning object (now, when you add content I check out what sort of xml I get back, so those problems should have gone...)

[cid:image027.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

And LO content in the few supported pages types so far...

[cid:image028.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

An RSS feed:

[cid:image029.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

A youtube video (use the direct embed link, eventually I'll sniff this out and make it easier) in the form http://www.youtube.com/embed/qmvA-OMysmM

[cid:image030.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

An FLV file - mp4 should work as well...
[cid:image031.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

And a sound file (with albeit pretty crude controls so far)
[cid:image032.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

and you can add pretty much any web content as the phone will open anything it doesn't recognise in the phones browser via a WebView object:

[cid:image033.png at 01CCB00E.601B14C0]

So that includes playing the LOs directly on the play_ url if the device can cope with it....
