Struklio 1.1.5 – Sign In on the First Tap
Struklio 1.1.5 is now available on iOS and Android. Signing in on Android now works on the first tap on every phone, the dashboard is faster, plans explain themselves, and Struklio is launching on Indiegogo.
Struklio 1.1.5 is now available on iOS and Android. It finishes the job we started with 1.1.4: signing in on Android now works on the first tap, on every phone. It also makes the dashboard faster, explains plans better and brings something new: our Indiegogo campaign.
Sign-in on Android, on the first tap
After 1.1.4, most Android users could sign in. But on some phones, especially Samsung and OPPO, tapping “Continue with Google” made the button dim for a moment and then nothing happened. Some of you tapped again and again until it finally worked.
We found out why. The sign-in screen has a swipe gesture for going back. On a real phone, a finger moves a tiny bit even during a normal tap, and the gesture took that tiny movement for the start of a swipe. It cancelled the tap before the button ever got it. On some phones, almost every tap was swallowed this way.
In 1.1.5, going back now needs a real swipe to the right, and every tap reaches the button.
We also made sign-in faster and clearer on Android:
- The first tap opens Google straight away. Struklio gets everything ready while the sign-in screen opens, so there’s no wait after you tap.
- You always see what’s happening. A short status line tells you when Google is opening and when you’re being signed in.
- One sign-in at a time. Extra taps while sign-in is already on its way are ignored, so they can’t get in each other’s way.
- A clear way out. If something goes wrong, you get one message with a Try again button instead of being left guessing.
Sorry to everyone who had to fight the sign-in screen. Thank you for sticking with us and telling us about it.
A dashboard that’s ready when you are
If you haven’t made an app yet, the “Create your first app” card now shows up right away when you open Struklio, instead of appearing last after everything else had loaded. Your dashboard loads faster in general, too.
Plans that explain themselves
When you reach the number of apps your plan includes, Struklio now tells you so plainly and shows you which plan gives you room for your next app, instead of just pointing you at your plan.
And if you open a plan and decide it’s not for you right now, we may ask you one quick, optional question about why. It never blocks anything, and the answers help us make Struklio fit the way you actually work.
Preview invites for Android friends
When you share a preview of your app, the invite now includes a Google Play link as well as the App Store link. Friends, clients and teammates on Android can get Struklio and open your preview without hunting for it.
Struklio is launching on Indiegogo
You’ll see a new card on your dashboard. On Friday 6 November at 20:15 Finnish time, Struklio launches on Indiegogo.
The card counts down to the launch and lets you share the campaign with one tap. When the campaign goes live, it switches by itself and counts down to the end instead. If you know someone who has always wanted an app for their business, this is the moment to send it to them.
