by Y####:

All it shows is on/off button on my s7. No msgs shown. Notification failed 400 msg when I attempt using growl notify.

Q70%
by Q####:

S6, menu button is missing / not emulated :(

W70%
by W####:

Not working, I can't even add a server/subscription because app constantly crashes.

Q70%
by Q####:

Due to very obsolete ui design. If you don't have a menu button on your phone steer away.

F70%
by F####:

Not working, I can't even add a server/subscription because app constantly crashes.

F70%
by F####:

Constantly just stops running. It'll even continue to show the notification, but if you check the app it'll be stopped.

Z70%
by Z####:

Works quite well on my HTC Z. I really want an option to remove the ongoing message in the notification area, however.

Z70%
by Z####:

Stops unexpectedly when I turn it on. Won't let me add. Won't appear in aTrackDog to uninstall and track when it updates :( Uninstalling

D70%
by D####:

Is it possible to use with the prowl web service? That's what I'd love.

Z70%
by Z####:

Bit buggy but core function works great for me. HTC desire.

Z70%
by Z####:

Doesn't work with HTC hero 2.1

R70%
by R####:

Doesn't work on Mac because its market share is too low to bother with! Get a real computer ;-)

Z70%
by Z####:

Works but very prone to breaking when the phone kills the app. Mac users need to use Growl1.3.

A70%
by A####:

Does not work at all. Should have tested more.

Q70%
by Q####:

Doesnt work with Macs, so its useless to me

Z70%
by Z####:

Doesn't work with Macs which makes this a non-starter. Do people even use Growl in Windows?

Z70%
by Z####:

Doesn't work @ all on Evo2.2 to iMac. Cannot find Evo in the applications tab on iMac.

Z70%
by Z####:

Useless on modern systems

Z70%
by Z####:

Great idea but flawed as currently stands. It's turning itself on... this is not ready for Market & should remain on Google Code until out of alpha.

Z70%
by Z####:

tried all the combinations, and while I was able to show subscribed computers, none of them actually forwarded or received notifications from the applications.

D70%
by D####:

Works like a charm! Option for hiding the growl icon in the notification bar would make it perfect.

S70%
by S####:

Followed instructions to no avail. App or instructions are not working.

I70%
by I####:

Good in concept, but that's not enough!

B70%
by B####:

Used this App as a receiver of Growl notifications over LAN by subscribing to Growl for Windows notifications and it worked great showing all Growl notifications on my Android! Pros: SIMPLE No Complicated Email Registrations Required No Special Registration Code for App to work No Limit to Number of Notifications with Free App (others have 5 notifications/day) Cons: More stability required to give it 5Stars Might crash sometimes during setup of subscriptions Hints: Use IP if hostname not working when doing "Add Subscription" Review instruction note on developer website: Applications registered on Growl for Windows need to be restarted for initial setup. Note: Have not tested this App as a Growl sender

I70%
by I####:

Constantly just stops running. It'll even continue to show the notification, but if you check the app it'll be stopped.

C70%
by C####:

If you can't get yours working, RTFM (see the dev site for instructions) You can do some really geeky stuff. I have an iPod touch running a web server, a PHP script sends a growl (when something important happens) to my PC and that forwards it to my Android tablet now!

C70%
by C####:

Is crashing...wish it worked.

C70%

Poor

I70%
by I####:

Fantastic app, I use it to get notifications from my pc when ae renders finish! People who mark 1 star are noobs who don't know how to set growl up!

Q70%
by Q####:

Everything seems configured right, but there's no response on my Nexus 7 when I trigger a notification in Growl on Mountain Lion. Booooo.

Q70%
by Q####:

I have only used it for an hour and it has crashed once already so that is not a good sign. Thx to the author for his hard work but it does need a little love.

Q70%
by Q####:

Follow the instructions and it works perfectly, keep the features coming!

Q70%
by Q####:

I'm giving up. It crashes all day long. The icon is always displayed even when it's off. Nexus 4

I70%
by I####:

I've gone through the instructions and am unable to get it to work on my thrive. Also having crashing issue as previous people have described.

B70%
by B####:

Crap, starts when I said stop, doesn't work. Unofficial.

Q70%
by Q####:

Doesnt work if it stays running. Crashes more oftern than not. sgs2

I70%
by I####:

Works fine. Though notification needs to not be themed and would be good to have support for the old UDP protocol.

Q70%
by Q####:

Crashing all the time on S2. Would happily pay for something that doesn't.

Z70%
by Z####:

Constantly just stops running. It'll even continue to show the notification, but if you check the app it'll be stopped.

P70%
by P####:

Crashes every few hours even when not configured, configured correctly (?) it doesn't receive notifications and crashes. Using on a note 2 and Mac.
