    Personally I still want the old UI back of which I and I'm sure many others are the same.

    Downloaded the Android version, ran it, & declined the kind offer to track my location by GPS.

    Was dropped into "London" (the Docklands), I moved around for a couple of seconds & stopped at Liverpool Street station.

    I looked at the single Thorntons deal.
    I then moved East to find the nearest Tesco.
    Viewed all the deals there.
    I then click the [Stores] button to view all local supermarkets.
    I didn't scroll or click any items.

    Accidentally I then dropped back to my Android home screen.
    I restarted the application & it is just showing me the "Loading..." message (& the "two flames" logo).

    The [Stores] [Saved] [Submit] [Feedback] buttons are at the bottom of the screen.

    I will leave it in this state (for some time, within reason) in case you would like me to do or report on anything else.

    BFN,

    fp.

    PS. This is on *a* Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY, Android Version 4.0.2.A.0.32.

    Great idea thanks, I always use tesco free wi-fi when in store to check hukd on my phone and see what deals have been posted.

    Basket Buddy sounds like some sort of gay euphemism. Is that intentional?

    Try using OS figures that are not over a year old. Smartphone market share @ February 2012:

    [image missing]



    Microsoft have ~ 5% of the market and it's growing - the Nokia handsets in particular are selling out all over the place.

    That Windows Phone market share is from a year ago. WP market share has tripled in the last 3 months, and that's before they even launched Nokia in India, China and the USA...

    Lumias currently hold the #1 and #2 top selling phone spots on Amazon.com

    I think for small OS's like webOS we won't develop a port in the near future. Anyone can use the HUKD API to build their own though if they want!

Have installed 3 times now and rebooted my phone twice... think I'm going to give up. Shame that as I got really excited and rearranged all my icons to have this on the front screen.... (YES I Know.... scarily sad but hey - I'm an HDUK fanatic - what can I say?) and then the deflation when it wouldn't work was almost too much... oO


    get mick to buy you an upto date phone

    Internal Memory can run short easily on Android phones, really needs to be enabled for moving to SD card. Really want it, but can't use the app for that reason.

    Hark at you, lucky guy!

    I cannot get a signal for my mobile telephone when inside our local Asda store!

    Nice try, but this chart actually shows Microsoft's marketshare taking a nose-dive. It was at 10% in the previous chart, including both WinMo6 and WP7. It's now at just 5% for both. That's pretty bad.

    Would love to use this application but i have a Nokia, is there going to be a Nokia VERSION?

    Too many expired deals, cannot search by date.
    Therefore too difficult to use.
