Castanet.net for Android
Like it for reading local news it's a decent app.
Finally
*edit: previous comment was a bit harsh. Still, the design is not very inspired. Take a look at the Kelowna Now app for some inspiration into a clean will designed app. It's simple effective and displays nicely on mobile platforms.
Would like to see filtering in the classifieds search string or at least have search results listed by date added. Kinda annoying having to search through hundreds of listings for things that were posted on today's date.
It's very helpful having local news and classifieds. Would love if the drop shadow on all text could be removed. It's difficult to read and a bit headache inducing.
Everytime I open the app, it has news from 2 days prior and it doesn't refresh with current news.
EDIT: Im an idiot and figured it out. Was really frustrated when all I could find was news. Changed my rating! I can't view the movies list anymore? 98% why I have the app :
Love this app I spend lots of times reading news and looking through classifieds but it's a bit glitch when scrolling through photos could use an update to resolve that issue
Unstable, crashes a lot, can't even filter searches, or access msg inbox.
I have seen castanet reporting both sides of the political table more fairly lately. I think they may be smart enough to understand this is what the people demand. Good Job Castanet. Keep it up.
I don't know what happened but now I can't see classified adds
Crashes every time I open it and this happens on a daily basis
One of the worst apps ever. Constantly crashes and freezes my phone. Brutal. Fire the designer.
Please make app rotate to get 5 * it's more handy for people like me. Please and thank you.
No classified search filter options
Let me stay signed in holy cwap
It needs to be auto rotate compatible.
No watch list in classifieds and text too large so too much is truncated. Also only works in portrait mode.
Keeps crashing ..... even uninstalled and reinstalled several times
Piece of $#!t keeps crashing
Seems to go thru periods where it crashes a lot but otherwise has everything I need.
Easier to navigate than the online version! I use it instead of full version. Great!
Seems to work good, been waiting for this version. Long overdue
Ever since I bought my Samsung 6 Edge in December 2015, the Castanet app CONTINUOUSLY crashes! I have uninstalled and redownloaded it multiple times but it still crashes about 10 times a week and I need to use it multiple times a day. It does not crash ever on our iPad and no other app crashes on this Samsung, so not sure what the issue is.
There is no way to change the city and apply it. You can change the city but it does not work. There is no dedicated sign in button. It seems lazy. Please do a major overhaul. Even pay a company to do it. Until this app will remain awful.
I like this app. I have used castanet online and waited for this quite a while. They have done a good job on it and very easy to use.
Been waiting for this app for Android a while, thanks!
Works well
Finally
Informative and easy to use.
