I wanted to see how this app feels. Visiting the App Store, there is no app with this name. On my iPad, if I tap on your link, I am presented with (literally) a solid empty white square. Good job, Apple.

So FYI for everyone else not in the UK, this app is only available in the UK App Store. (But I had to fire up my Mac to find out.)

So it took Apple almost as long to approve it as it did for you to build it! Surely Apple can cut down the review time - it's so frustrating.

Especially seeing as Google Play makes it so easy. Nightmare for getting urgent updates out!

FYI for urgent updates you can request an expedited review from Apple. Saved our asses a couple of times.

It's funny that the Genymotion screenshot clearly shows "for personal use" :) The blog post says Genymotion "has a completely free option along with some paid options for larger groups of developers", which is a slightly different interpretation of what you can read on Genymotion website as the use cases there are divided between commercial and non-commercial. Still a nice read, good luck to you!

I wonder if Ionic Framework did remove the click-delay of +/- 300 ms for browser apps / sites. I tested a demo of the framework a while ago and the app just felt slow (perhaps because of the animation or what i thought was the delay on click).

Googled: According to info, they did remove it, but you shouldn't use the ng-touch or fastclick side by side with it (source: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25419109/ionic-tap-delay-... )

Good to know. Wasn't aware of that at all.
