Bummer. I got my Chipolo today, and there are two problems: 1) The interface is inscrutable. I'm a hard core geek, and damned if I can figure out ANY of the Android app UI. No, seriously, it's laughably incomprehensible. 2) The Chipolo isn't seen as a bluetooth device; my phone can't "find"...

I'm really annoyed and bummed that -- despite apparent reassurances from Pally -- their Smart Finder does not work with Android at this time, and an Android app to rectify this is not expected until March :-(. Currently in communications with company to get a refund. In the meantime, I've...

Yes, I can sympathize! :D Imagine how I felt trying to slyly test this out before the app was public :p HA! I tell ya, I think my team and I (and all of you!) will have made it if we ever see Homer creating photo spheres on The Simpsons! :) Trickedoutdavid, technology gets better all the...

I'd like to introduce Views, a brand new community site where you can explore Street View collections from around the world, check out gorgeous photo spheres shared by users like you, and most importantly, use your Android phone (or dSLR) to contribute some of your own photo spheres. Let us...

Hey again, Sorry... I thought I'd receive notifications on replies, but didn't! Just noticed the default was not set to daily-notify. Oops! - re: Photo Sphere viewers: To my knowledge, currently just in Google+, on Panoramio, and -- for photos published there -- in Google Maps. - note that...

Happy to see an Android Photography forum, and especially delighted that there's a Photo Sphere section. Since I work on this product at Google, I figured I'd offer a few unsolicited tips for making even better photo spheres ;) Hold the phone vertically Keep it very close to your body...
