So how do you assure folk it's not a trojan?

I didn't find this on an App store which scans for nasties.

Is it open source?

No Trojans

There is no Trojans when you added app to the windows store, Microsoft scan app apps in the submission process before they are added to the store.

The app is not open source and is sole developed by myself

Thank you

Android is on the cards very soon, there is some ideas I want to finish before I make the transition.

I'm in the process of building a home cinema, the building is up. I wanted the app to do everything I needed from it for the cinema build Happy

Just a tip. May want to pull that mobile app.

Store

Mobile doesn't just imply Phones, there is a huge windows tablet market out there.

The app is universal so its compatible with PC and Mobile. I'm not targeting window phones but it is compatiable

Time to rethink this position.
by r. proffitt Forum moderator Jan 3, 2017 8:54AM PST

I tried Windows 8 and 10 on tablets. There are some pretty bad things in that system.

For example when I went to pair up bluetooth Windows (the OS!) showed me dialog boxes from XP days. It was nearly impossible to hit the buttons or key in the pairing code.

If you want to hit the Mobile market stick to the iPad and Android for now. I found the Windows Tablet experience horrible. Microsoft seems to be fine with these shortcomings and it will affect the market share (too low for most to go after today.)
