Apps that don't work on the Nexus 7

[mkiker2089]

Seems to look good from what I've seen, but I haven't watched a lot on it. I generally don't do videos on tablets as I like big screen TVs.

The Transformer movie looks sweet.

Netflix wasn't pre-loaded like I thought it would be but it works fine.

Can someone test Netflix, also is it optimized nicely?

Works great.

Instagram doesn't work on the Nexus 7. Compatibility error message

See my previous posts.

The Skype app is kind've buggy in its current state. I was having some issues making a video call and having my video show, and my video shows upside down on my screen, but if I unlock my screen orientation then it shows just fine.

XM radio not running

A lot of the problems are tablet issues, not just Nexus 7 issues.

Neither version of the USA Today is compatible.

I think it is just a matter of the devs updating their device list and/or optimizing for JB. Hopefully they will get around to it now that the Nexus 7 is out and the Galaxy Nexus phones will be updated soon.

What about Google Drive/Docs? Can you edit documents in landscape mode?

YES! Thanks a bunch guys. I have been meaning to ask about these but keep forgetting. As long as I can read my feeds, comics, and books I will be okay until more apps are updated and compatible.

Now... about the Amazon Instant Video problem...

Does the Free MMORPG game Faction Wars beta work ok? Anyone kind enough to try it?

I can try it when I get home this evening. It's a healthy sized d/l for the work WiFi.

Does anyone know which Swiftkey keyboard to use on the Nexus 7? They have a phone and tablet version but the N7 is a tablet with a phone interface. Thoughts? Thanks.

I'm using the phone version... Got a couple of warnings at install about the tablet version possibly working better for my device, but blew past those and haven't looked back.

Seriously? We don't have enough individual threads complaining about Play Store Nexus's, we have to start talking about it in threads that have nothing to do with them?

Sure we can and we can also say the same thing about a device just released with a version of android just released in regards to some of the 200,000+ apps not working as intended that were coded for version 4.0 and earlier. I can completely understand complaining about business practices and quality issues, but give developers more than a couple of days to get everything working correctly on their apps before you start complaining.
