Digital Stadium Albion app

[Bozza]

What does this app do? I've left my phone at school, so no chance of downloading it, but intrigued by it.

It shares content between phones running the app. So, if only 1 phone is able to get a signal, all other phones in an overloaded area will be able to get the data that the single phone can pull down.

The data set is limited but highly relevant to a stadium crowd - other scores, related tweets and transport details for example.

This is done in association with Sussex University so they may start upsetting some people (research funders) if they did that. Plus I've never even heard of Cydia, but then again I'm old.

Why would it upset anyone?

Why would it upset anyone?

It was just a thought. I have nothing to do with the app and know nothing about Cydia, as I said before, but I'm would guess they would want to get the thing right with an official Apple app first where they would have a larger market.

It worked better than ever today. Thanks for all of your hard work.

Will it work on my ipod? Or does it need the phone signal?

Didn't work with my ipod touch (5th gen) today, did work (intermittently) with my friend's iphone,

It didn't work on my iphone 4 at all today!

 

[upthealbion1970]

Worked fine on my mates 4s today

 

[Falmerite]

I really liked the app for showing scores etc after loading onto iphone this week but it was hopeless in East Stand Lower today

Hopeless as usual on android in WSL

 

[Was not Was]

It was almost functionless today on iPhone 4s in WSU. Several attempts to use between 2.15 and 5.30, only one, at end of half-time) yielding any new data (and that after several minutes).

Mine gave up at 2.08pm

Was hopeless in West Stand on IPhone 5 today on Vodafone. But worked okay on my sons IPhone 4 on O2.

Dont know why that is.

 

[Silk]

I've given up on it.

A lot of people had a lot of good things to say about the stadium app today. Nice one!

Logged on at 2.20 on the way to the Amex, and worked reasonably well throughout the game, although a little slow at half time, on my Iphone 5C. I'm in the north stand.

 

[fire&skill]

It was the first time I've been able to check scores, tables etc since going to the Amex. Always try to check in bus queue after the game, and, until today have never had any joy. This was on an iPhone 5S.

 

[Dan Aitch]

Did nothing for me today but, seeing as I'm still stuck in the east, I was surrounded by people checking their social networks to find out whether it was time to cheer.

 

[juliant]

First time using it today and bloody loved it. Loading scores within seconds and that was in the North. Big like

 

[Albion Robster]

Did'nt work on my iPhone4S today at 16:15.
The current match was apparently Bolton vs Brighton.
Big fail for me
