Thank you!

I can be messaged at zoki2 on the app
I tried to add my original zoki identification buy the app errors out.

Authenticated well. Authenticator on Android popped up, remembers my password. Very easy to get logged in.

With my openVPN ‘static ip address’ while I roam the planet. Even in this alpha stage 
 this is a functioning and usefully app.

“SAFENetwork has functioning and secure messaging App”. This is worthy of headline news in the crypto press.

Woooo :champagne::champagne:

Edit: Someone please message me. :slight_smile:

Look how beautifully the authenticator displays the messaging app amongst others. So beautiful.

The road has been opened up for many more mobile apps.
Anyone want to release Candy Crypto Crush ?

Evolution of network chat apps, and now we have SAFE Messenger.

I also had the ‘Create Id Failed: Id already exists’ message, what I expected because of previous tests a while back with ‘draw’, so User Id is now ‘bedraw’.

Can we make this a Wiki post so we can add email ids to the bottom? @JPL

Good idea. A job for an Admin I think. I can’t see that option.

Initially this app was a mobile version of the desktop EmailApp which is crrently deperecated. Due to differences in the implementations, they were not fully compatible with each other.

  • So none of the ID created using the desktop EmailApp can be reused here.
  • Also to note, publicIDs created cannot be used.

I’ve just made the OP a Wiki (you can do that for every post as moderator: click on the :wrench: symbol below the post
).

I tried that - couldn’t see the Wiki option

Deep coolness - just sent a test msg to zoki2

I just edited the OP to add a section for known Safe Message IDs

I was turning my VPN off and rejoining my home WiFi at the time. Closed the error, app reconnected and works fine.

Congratulations @maidsafe ! This is great to see such releases coming out :slight_smile:

I also wanted to point out the fact that you do provide the android APK instead of putting it on a jailed app source :+1:

Hi @Zoki the crash report sounds like it was due to the app being disconnected from the internet - see known issue here https://github.com/maidsafe/safe-email-app-csharp/issues/32

This is the error you get if you try to guess IDs wrongly

I was guessing that @happybeing had set himself up as “happybeing” - Seems not :slight_smile:
