Popular Post alexiano Posted October 9, 2012 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Hi guys, You may (or may not) know, but I'm creating an app for the club which I'm hoping will be available by the first home game against Wellington. Some of the features of the app are: - "Check in" to game. More games you attend, you get discount on merch - new Kappa Jersey maker - Refer your friends to get onto the headhunter leader board - Check your standings on the Headhunter leaderboard - Store your membership barcodes (for use with derby presales, finals tickets, etc - Game fixtures - Latest membership tally figures More coming soon. Would love to hear what else you'd like to see in the app. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR9 Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) Good stuff mate, well done. I know your resources are very limited, but if possible, a few of things I'd like to see are; - 'push notifications'/reminders 24hrs before home/all games. (I know a lot of people struggle to receive KO information and the club don't really do a hell of a lot to promote home games. It's one of the main reasons many don't turn up. On average only 60% of a given games attendees are members.) - Semi-detailed player and team stats + league table - Semi-detailed player Bio's - 'News' section which allows you to read articles straight from the clubs site - A twitter/facebook component which allows the club and it's fans to interact/discuss in-game happenings, etc. Edited October 9, 2012 by LR9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexiano Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Hi Tommykins, Thanks for the offer. Really appreciate it. At this stage, the app has been submitted an awaiting approval. Got a few more features to add in the near future so I might take you up on that. PM me your git username along with some apps you've worked on for me to have a loom over.

True Until I die Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I got it today, absolutely loved it!, nice layout and cool features. I liked how you were able to use your jersey maker in the app and the barcode scanner. Only thing I would like is an option for the fixtures to add them to ical, but other than that all is great. Keep up the good work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep up the good work. Thanks heaps for the positive feedback and for the suggestion for the adding fixtures to Calendar. I'll certainly add that to the feedback suggestions. any chance this app will be released on android? Hi christian7. The app was developed specifically for iPhone as I'm an iPhone developer by trade, and to test the uptake on it. Android is still a serious consideration, and initial work has begun for it. 5246 as of yesterday. Not sure if its going to automatically update each day or not. Hi natalie.. Unfortunately the tally is given to me by the club weekly at best, but can understand that people would like it a little more frequently than this. The app will check the tally whenever you are in the app, but will only give a new figure when it changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexiano Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 The latest update for this app is now available, including twitter feed from MHFC and other improvements. You'll be pleased to know that the Android version is in development so if you're interested in beta testing, send me a message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am getting them from the other organisations I have liked. Thanks tech savvy forum members. Â Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Thanks for that. Worked perfectly. I had liked the wrong Melbourne Heart page. That one only had about 5000 likes instead of the one with 38000. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Live Tile looks and works great, but If the maker could somehow add a "Membership Counter" to it as well, it might even get 5 stars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexiano Posted October 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Hi guys, Â Excited to announce some new features in the HeartFan app for iPhone (for starters).

Chips Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Had some problems updating the Yarraside app with new chants. You press refresh in the top right corner and it crashes. Running iOS 7 iPhone 4 A suggestion is maybe combine the two apps, so its like a hub and you can access everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexiano Posted October 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Oh sheesh. Wish I'd seen this earlier . Will looking into the iOS7 bug. As for combining the apps, it's a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
