Android AIRMail – Development stopped

February 22nd, 2010

Hi guys,

due to the lack of time, I will not be able to continue the development of Android AIRMail anymore.

A new project at work, that I am working on at the moment, takes way too much time, so I won’t be able to support this application anymore. And as you may imagine – this project that I’m working on is actually something that I can make money with, so I had to make a decision. It really makes me sad, because I really loved this app and I put a lot of energy and brain power into it. Due to the fact O2Online does not provide any public API (e.g. a REST Service interface or something like), I will not be able to update the application as soon as the website design changes.

But Android AIRMail will not just go down the drain:

I will donate the code to Felix Bechstein, who is the developer of WebSMS (http://code.google.com/p/websmsdroid). He will use this code to implement all features that are not available at the moment. So almost nothing will change for you – but the application name. You just need to install WebSMS. The big advantage of WebSMS is the fact that you can send sms messages via other providers, too. I will ask Felix if it is possible to disable the ads for everyone that has donated money to Android AIRMail.

Android AIRMail will soon disappear from the Android Market (probably in the next 2-3 weeks). But before that, a new update will inform everyone about this big change.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but there was no other way out.

Regards,

Sascha

P.S.: I might probably come up with another application some time… but first of all I need to put all my brain power and time into work related projects.
