Man I’m still waiting on beta version :weary::weary:

122

@bradrisse can i please beta test the app?

123

So from what I’m reading it seems that developers want to get in on the development and the community wants it to be community built which I’m all for. So what I’m going to do is put up a portion of my codebase up in Github and see what happens. I also secured esk8app.com for information pertaining to the app as well as links to each app store. Ill put up the basic framework with some tasks I haven’t had time to work on.

I’ll put some paint on the canvas and we will see if the community can create a masterpiece. Ill have it up by Sunday.

Apps take time unfortunately, hopefully by getting the community involved this will decrease the timeframe.

@ajelliottjr Not 100% sure, but pretty sure you’ll see battery voltage (percentage), watts used, watt hours used and that stuff, in a cool GUI, but you’ll need to change the settings still in BLDC / VESC Tool. I think there may be another app for changing settings from your phone.

Thanks for the replies. Do you know of any apps on Googles play store?

Yes eventually you will be able to modify settings, right now the concentration is monitoring. Once that is working properly and in the app store the settings modifications from mobile will happen.
