Updated Android App with New Upload Management and Improved Recording Capabilities
Android AppWe have released a new version of our YuJa Mobile application for Android phones and tablets that is compatible with zones in all geographies. Mirroring our recently updated iOS application, this new application version features:
- New Manage Uploads – This new tab enables users to view the real-time upload status of both captures and uploaded media as they are transferred to their cloud-managed YuJa account.
- Improved Recording Robustness – Now screen locks or situations where the application becomes inactive does not impede an active recording. Further, recordings are also stored into your Photos section as an added safety measure.
- New Color Scheme – The previous green color scheme has been refreshed with a more modern blue scheme which is also consistent with our web-based Platform.
- Minor Fixes and Improvements – In addition, we improved compatibility across iOS versions, as well as resolved about a dozen or so smaller issues.
