Steepshot dead on Android

in #steepshot5 years ago (edited)

Goodbye @steepshot Android. See Google transcript below.

Had a chat with Google play since @steepshot not responding. Seems @steepshot not bothered to make an effort to reinstate its listing on the play store. So seems all Android users are left out in the cold since nobody @steepshot seems to care too much.

No answers for weeks now. So I guess that is that. Just wish @steepshot would care enough to at least let Android users know if anything is being done about this issue.

ANYBODY OUT THERE @steepshot

Michaeljn, in order to help you in this case, I'll share few basic troubleshooting steps.
Please perform it in your device and check if the app is showing in Play Store app.

Please allow me 2-3 more minutes.

Thank you for waiting.
I've initiated consult with higher specialist. It may take few more minutes
Request you to please be online.

michaeljn [12:36 AM]:
Ok

Angelina [12:40 AM]:
Thank you so much for being online; Appreciate your patience.

michaeljn [12:40 AM]:
Ok

Angelina [12:41 AM]:
Michaeljn, I've discussed the case with higher specialist and the specialist checked the details. Now, I'm afraid to inform that the app "steepshot" is no longer available on Google Play. Either the developer has chosen to remove the app, or the app has been taken down due to violations of the Google Play Terms of Service.
If you’d like to review those terms, please visit this link: http://www.android.com/us/developer-distribution-agreement.html

michaeljn [12:44 AM]:
I heard the violation rumour on the platform. My issue is if that is the case why is it still available on apple. This is so annoying. Why cant Google sort the issue out so we can get it back up

Angelina [12:46 AM]:
Michaeljn, I certainly understand the issue, however it's totally depend on app developer in which platform they wish to publish their app.
We can't force the developer to publish their app on Google platform.
Also, Google have certain terms and conditions and Google treats developer policy violations very seriously in order to protect the users.
Google take an action as per customer's feedback and it's just for customer security.
If you've any query regarding this particular app, I'd recommend you to please get in touch with the app developer.

michaeljn [12:49 AM]:
I used the app all the time. So I guess I would have to switch phones to use the app. Anyway. Ok will try to chat to steepshot directly AGAIN. No problem. Thanks for the help.

Angelina [12:51 AM]:
I certainly understand your concern however, this is something that is under developer hand. Google just provide a platform to multiple vendors and developers to publish their content. However, it's totally depend on the developer whether they wish to publish their app or not.
I appreciate your understanding in this regard.

michaeljn [12:51 AM]:
Have a good day. Bye.

Angelina [12:51 AM]:
Beside this, is there anything else I can assist you with?

michaeljn [12:52 AM]:
Nah. All good. Night

Angelina [12:52 AM]:
It's my pleasure to assist you.
Thanks for contacting Google!


PS. If anyone out there has any answers please let me know in the comments.

Hopefully Partiko can help you achieve the same thing! We are adding wallet soon so that will be something to look forward to as well!

Thank you - I am already on @partiko maybe one thing you guys could try to add is being able to have more than 5 tags. if that is possible, I found that I got more exposure on @steepshot which I think is due to that, if you manage to sdo that then I think I will just permanently start using @partiko instead of @steepshot.

I think that is about the only reason I used steepshot. other than that @partiko works great.

Thank you for commenting @partiko. at least some developers give a crap about their users.

Glad to learn your need! We will definitely implement that!

Posted using Partiko Android

Thanks, you are allowed 20 tags on steepshot, if yo guys are able to do that, it would be great.

@partiko any progress on increasing the number of tags that one can use when posting? Steepshot allows up to 20 tags.

I remember I tried to download on my Android but couldn't. I have used iPhones in the past and their closed system sucks very hard, I won't go back to Apple just to use this app

Posted using Partiko Android

True, I am also not an apple fan, so I have finally decided to just go with @partiko to do posting from my mobile. since @steepshot could not care less or respond or comment for weeks now.

I saw your post too late.
I have it on my phone since weeks. Now it doesn't work anymore. Always the same message of server back soon...

Yip seems @steepshot may soon be something of the past, so many issues and no response to any queries I have made I even went on Google play store to find help.

I have now moved to @partiko they seem to be the best mobile application to use right now. you should try it out.

Have a blessed 2019

Thank you!
Alle the best for 2019
For the moment it seems to work again.
I will try partiko

Happy new year to you too. Blessings for 2019. 😊
