Hmmm.... I would disagree on that point. There is no use having the app open in the background permanently - it disconnects anyways after a timeout period, you might as well have an exit button to save resources.

But which app do you know that has an exit button?
- Ingo - 07-06-2012
Perhaps not an \'Exit\' button as we know it but some apps do release resources when you tap the \'Back\' button but most just keep running until your reboot. This request was actually from the Galaxy Note owner where I tested the App on.

Ok, a slightly better update from the guy that loaded it on his \'Note. He said he pressed the \'Back\' button and the application didn\'t do anything, he had to click the \'Home\' button to get back to his Home Screen.
Perhaps pressing the \'Back\' button action is not yet active or doesn\'t work properly yet. I will wait for the next release to test on my Desire to give more first-hand feedback.

Thanks we will check the back button function
However it seems that the app is designed for minimum android 2.3 version, as 2.2 is rather old and has a number of limitations

Thanks, it seems I have to load a custom ROM to get it going...

I am afraid that the comfort Android App only supports Android 2.3.3 upwards.
We are experimenting with some new stuff and we need to stay at this API level.

Use of BACK key.
We were struggling with this a bit. Especially when logged in - what to do.
For now we have settled on.. :
BACK FUNCTION
Config (editing) -> revert
Config (not editing) - nothing
Login Page - nothing
Dashboard - ask if you want to logout
Cameras / Home Control - dashboard
- Calistra - 07-06-2012
Thanks to everybody\'s feedback we have been pushing out updates furiously.
We have the counters up and running now. We are working on the cameras.
Should be next week.
