Well do you know when Loopt is coming out for thee voyager (VX10000

A comment on the question "Will Loopt be supported on ipod touch?" in Loopt:

I don't understand how you can say that the Loopt experience "wouldn't be very good" for people using the iPod Touch. Shouldn't that be for your customer base to decide? I have an iPod Touch and would be happy use Loopt at home, at internet cafes, airports, university campuses, convention centers, restaurants and other wifi spots. Loopt should investigate the customer perspective and make marketing decisions that will gain more customers. Brightkite is usable on my iPod Touch- why lose market share to Brightkite? – Allison, on October 02, 2008 16:33

That's kind of you. I would love an invite!

To all my fellow voyager folks out there... as of 10/1/08 Loopt still doesn't support our phone, but as of today Brightkite is working on the Voyager. Check it out at http://brightkite.com. I've got invites available if anybody wants one!

Wow.

Loopt is not doing what it is supposed to be doing.

I have a first gen iPhone in 2.1 on AT&T. I donwloaded the new app but it refuses to send verification. Any ideas? (I tried it a few times.)

Taco replied on September 25, 2008 12:58 to the question "Will Loopt be available internationally?" in Loopt:

Strange though...
If loopt is SO populair in de US why on earth is it so difficult to publish the app in other countries and continents?
If you wait to long other simmilar apps wil arrive and people in Europe, New-Zealand and others will forget Loopt.

Please make it work outside the US, you've build a great app so let us enjoy it aswell!

I am an iPhone user and I really like Loopt a lot, but I like most of the people here will be glad when it crosses more platforms. I find it hard to believe that none of my friends but the ones with iPhones can use Loopt. None of my friends other smartphones are in the supported list... I have one friend I can use Loopt with at this time, but when the support for other devices expands then I will be able to interact with more of my friends through Loopt.

Totally agreed with Keenglouie!! Priority, should have been iphone, WM, then others. If you are having success with J2ME then go with that. There are clients to download for free for WM users that let them run Java apps. I would hope Loopt would at least show an effort. Get some beta testers.. let's move on already

I can 't get it either, I have tried ALL software versions and am now on 2.1 on a 2G jailbroken and unlocked iPhone. I was going to leave Brightkite to come here, but if I am having this much trouble JUST to sign up...

Keenglouie replied on September 19, 2008 02:06 to the idea "Windows Mobile support for Loopt" in Loopt:

I must say... the Windows Mobile systems is one of the top OS out there. Its been around much longer than any other OS and there are hundreds of applications made for it.

I being loopt would have had this in my forecast and would have planned to tackle this task since it would expand the service and brand. I understand development and the challenges of planning and the testing of the process.

It seems to me you have a market in the Windows Mobile arena. I for 1 know I can have my whole sales force and most if not all my territory reps on a system like this. That's over 400 Units which use Windows Mobile...

Jason replied on September 18, 2008 22:54 to the question "Any Idea when the LG Dare version will be out?" in Loopt:

Hi Sparky,

As one of the User Experience designers here at Loopt, I'd like to give a bit more information. Although both the Dare and iPhone are touch, their user interface styles are quite different; the Dare has some keys (i.e. clear, end, etc), and it places commands in different locations with respect to the iPhone. When we design Loopt for a new platform, we try to strike a balance between the establish Loopt interface and the interface conventions for the phone, like the Dare.

So, not only is there the programming required to create Loopt for the dare, but design changes as well so Loopt will feel like a natural piece of the Dare experience.

Make no mistake, we will be out on more touch screens!

A comment on the idea "Windows Mobile support for Loopt" in Loopt:

To be honest, for various reasons, we're stretched pretty thin when it comes to mobile development resources. We don't have the resources right now to write and maintain a native windows mobile client, but JVMs have just recently made it to the point where our J2ME client might work on Windows Mobile in a JVM. Our latest J2ME build works really well on the Tilt, and may eventually be released. – Nick Sivo, on September 18, 2008 19:23

I know on my Tilt I can access information on com4 ( the default ) at 9600 relatively easy. I am just curious what is holding up the development with something like this. Is the trouble coming from finding the position how google maps does by using the location relative to the towers? I am sure every windows mobile user on here (That has a built in GPS) would agree that if we just had a version for now that needed to use the GPS and couldn't use the tower positioning to update loopt we would be happy with that. I understand that when it comes to programming it is always easier said than done, but I would have thought that Windows MO would be easier than most phones out there.

yeah this sucks... I just got rid of my Blackberry Pearl and got the LG Dare and learned about Loopt. I got all excited and now I can't even use it. Would it be kinda of the same coding as the Iphone? Obviously different developing, but same concept.
