GA MAG ALP - Gymnastics for Android
Looks to be a great resource. I had a little problem with the PDFs not downloading. Before running the app for the first time I had to go into the permissions from Settngs>Apps>GA MAG ALP>Permissions then manually allow Storage. Then when I opened the app it downloaded the pdfs correctly. First time I opened it the 'loading' seemed to work but none of the pdfs were saved - had to uninstall and redownload and follow the steps above. Seems to work fine on my phone running Android 6.0.1. The display is quite small but you can pinch/zoom to view the bits you need.
This electronic version of the Australian Men's Gymnastics Program is far superior to the paper version. The interface allows you quickly & easily skip around levels and apparatuses in a fashion that paper could never allow. While not 'studio quality' the video clips are far superior to those supplied with the Level Program CD-ROMs in previous years. Its price seems hideously expensive when compared to other mobile apps, but when measured against the price GA used to sell the PDF version for, it becomes reasonable. I think coaches at small clubs will find the purchase worth the investment just for the video clips alone.
PROS: - The quality of the video clips is far superior to those supplied with the Level Program CDs in previous years. (...but not all clips work). - From the routines page it is easy access to corresponding video clips for each level & apparatus. CONS: - *None* of the video clips for Parallel Bar nor High/Horizontal Bar work. (This needs to be fixed) - Pricey, compared to other mobile device applications.
