So, what day will we see this in the market???
Wow. Nice work.
AMAZING!!! GORGEOUS!!! BETTER THAN FB COULD DO THEMSELVES!!!
this app looks perfect!! well done DC!
Looks great! Nicely done!
Looks great!
Will you offer an option to purchase the app directly from you via PayPal or something for those of us living in locales where there is no paid Android Market (like Canada)?
I live in Canada and am pretty excited about this app. However rogers doesnt support paid apps yet. Is there a chance that the app could be emailed out with paypal type purchase? AHome does this which allowed me to purchase.
Wow, thats some serious bloo, man. Bravo!
Amazing work!! 1.50$ is a very reasonable price for this application, unfortunately we don’t have access to paid apps in Canada yet. Will there be another way to get the app appart from the market? Thank you very much!
Videos look awesome, can’t wait! Any word on pricing?
Ignore my last comment, just watched the video again and heard the price. App looks great and definitely worth the $$$.
WOW! I can’t believe you managed to make an app that looks better than what a whole facebook/iphone team has been able to do. More than I expected and I know you will even make it better (based on your enthusiasm and skills shown so far)!
I will gladly pay for this app! Once more android phones start coming out…I am sure you will benefit with even more paid customers!
Can’t wait, looks great. My wallet is open!
WOW that looks awsome i will pay for this and i am so excited about it thanx for all your work
I would pay $10 for this application. $1.45 is fine too though.
You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for this! $1.49 is a small price to pay for the work that has gone into this app!
Awesome work. I can’t wait to download it. Any news of its status on being approved?
can someone rip & upload somewhere elsewhere like vimeo.com?
I, like most people, cannot view youtube at work and I’ve been dying to see this!!!
Just throw pwn in front of the youtube.com like this pwnyoutube.com so you can bypass the filter, but you would end up downloading the video, but you can at least view it.
The app looks wonderful. I will be reviewing this application as soon as it is live. Thanks for all your effort for we facebook users.
really nice. I’m looking forward to install this on my phone.
A nice feature would be “auto-url-shortening” with short.to for example, when posting links.
Wow!
Realy nice app. I have one tiny problem. I would like to have it, but unfortunately in my Country (Slovenia) there is no support for paid apps, all I can install are free apps. Is there any chance to get app in .apk format and I’ll paid through PayPal?
Since I couldn’t find e-mail address I’m posting this as a Comment.
And again, realy cool app, almost must have
I love a good bloo movie don’t you?
bleh. i don’t have access to the non-free market. i’d have spent a dollar for the app though
Looks amazing, can’t wait!
When and how much!? Cannot wait for this app.
have you watched the videos or read any of the blog?
this week and $1.49
oh, one more. is an option for facebook-chat planned since there are other apps that have this feature. would be nice if Bloo becomes the all-in-one facebook solution for android.
WOW!!! AMAZING APP!!
Can’t wait for it to be published; this is some amazing work DC. Congrats, you have finally created a fantastic facebook app for Android. We really needed this app, as everything else in the market is definitely sub-par.
Like other people said, this is even better than the facebook/iphone app that I have seen on friends phones! Definitely worth the $$$, I would be willing to pay even more
.
Keep up the great work DC, and thanks for taking the time!!
can we pay thru paypal?
Dimitris…it looks amazing…
The wait is absolutely killing me (checking Cyrket every 5 mins while I’m at home!)…but I can see the wait is worth it!…
Thank you.
[...] Via Le blog de Bloo [...]
This looks incredible. Thank you for creating this app, I would happily pay way more than $1.49 for it, it’s the most useful app to be released for Android. I look forward to seeing how you continue improve it in the future, and clearly with such skills whether you aim to bring any more brilliant apps to the Market.
yeah, I was wondering if he had any different apps up his sleeve too!
I am now practically bursting with anticipation! Quick! Publish!
Wow! I was really interested in Bloo prior to these videos but now I can’t wait! It looks amazing!
And it’s an absolute bargain at $1.49
Really hoping to see this on the market soon. Excellent work DC!
Oustanding work. This sort of app will keep me using Android devices, not just Facebook. Thanks
When I saw the app screen capture, I think it may be the greatest app for facebook in Android.
After watch the video, it must the greatest one, even comparing to iPhone one.
I really cannot wait for the app to release.
Thanks for your great work for Android lover like me.
I think its absolutely rediculous that youre charging people for this, who do you think you are? We can just use the web version for free!
Ha, nah Im only kidding. I just find it funny when people complain about spending 1.50 on an app but have no issues throwin out 8 bucks for a pack of cigarettes. I want it now!!
Hahahaha! I was getting ready to post a rude reply and then read your second paragraph.
Nice one
Looks great and 1.49 is a bargain for what you get. My wallet is begging to be opened for this.
Awesome Job
Please for the love of god release a version on the Canadian app store!
If not, could you please e-mail me, and I will pay you double the price for the APK file so I can install it!
+1 on that! I’m willing to pay more if we can get an alternative way of purchasing the app other than the market.
+2 I too am willing to pay more to be able to get this even if the market doesn’t allow paid apps in Canada…
good good work!
when you release it?
bye from italy!
Amazing looking app, but we won’t get in the Canadian Market
I just watched the videos, I so would pay for this app. If I install Market Enabler and then download a new ROM, will I have to pay for the app again when I reinstall it?
please please arrange another way for those people who can’t get paid apps on their market, such as mine.. Singapore.
like for eg,
you send us the Bloo apk file which is locked
we pay for the app thru paypal
you send us the unlock code to unlock the app
we apply the code, and use Bloo as per normal.
i really hope there’s an alternative for us.. without paid app market
COMPLETELY RAD. Can’t wait to download and give it a whirl!
Thanks for all your time and efforts.
Wheres Bloo?!?!
Can’t wait for this haha
If you have a rooted phone you can use market enabler for paid apps. We don’t have access yet either and it works great
Can be downloaded from here
http://strazzere.com/blog/?tag=market-enabler
Also, you don’t need a special rom, just the enabler and root access
This will actually bee my first Market purchase. It’s the first app worth paying money for, especially at $1.49.
Dude, even if only 25% of android users download this app, that well over a quarter million dollars in your pocket. Good job!
Plus you might get a job at Google out of this.
Looks great … but please listen to the non-US users above. We need to see this app at another marketplace than the Android Market.
Please also release Bloo at SlideMe-Market (http://slideme.org) – they offer paid applications for all Android users.
Bloo rocks !!
Rather than make the author jump through hoops to make this available to everyone, why not just root your phone and use market enabler? This way he still gets all the proceeds and doesn’t risk an emailed version floating around to people who haven’t paid?
“This way he still gets all the proceeds and doesn’t risk an emailed version floating around to people who haven’t paid?”
Great reason not to do it. Didn’t think of that. Glad I am in the US and will get it off the Market.
The only way I can think of to stop this would be for the author to set up his own authentication system, which means more work and more time waiting for a release. I just read about slideme, maybe that would work too, but I don’t know all the details. I just want to get this thing loaded up, I’m sick of turning on the laptop just to check FB, and the other apps I’ve tried haven’t really done it for me. FBabble is close, but Bloo will definitely be king.
Looks really great, but is it going to display the number of comments on friends’ statuses? It didn’t appear that it does that in the view of the feed, which is something that I use to gauge whether to leave another comment or not.
This app looks like a killer app for Android users. I will be buying it as soon as I see it on the market. It looks way better than trying to use Facebook’s full page in the browser or their horrid mobile page.
Keep up the good work, I can’t wait!
Looks fantastic, thanks so much for all your hard work. Can I pay you more than $1.49 for it???
According to some other users who rooted their phone, they still can’t see paid apps. If one wishes to reach out to a broader market, should consider those who are not so geek enough to actually root their phone.
Also, correct me if I’m wrong, once you rooted your phone, you won’t be able to receive over the air updates.
“you won’t be able to receive over the air updates.”
yes, I’m afraid so…..
Then they probably need to kill the Market app that might be running. Sometimes it can take a few attempts. Also, it could be that they just don’t see Protected apps and since a lot of paid apps are protected they might think they don’t see them.
will we be able to log out? What if we have 2 separate Fb accounts?
Wowowowowowow! I’m already standing in line with my 1.49 in hand!
like another user said, “looks better than something facebook would come up with” .. well thought out man, cheers, can’t wait!
Wow. You have put in so much hard work & thought into the app. Your dedication shows and is reflected in this app greatly. You have filled in a great void on Android and the app is worth every penny.
You are a great and talented developer and I will support you and I’m sure many out there will as well.
Keep up the great work & may GOD bless you.
I’m suprised people haven’t been asking if there is a chat feature included. Is there one? I’m guessing not since it hasn’t been advertised. Please please consider this. The chat feature is key!
And I really hope you people don’t start bitching when you don’t see it since you didn’t ask for it.
Great work D.C.
I already asked for a chat feature cause I really’d like to see it included in future versions. only main feature of facebook that is missing in my opinion.
Simple and brilliant! The cornerstones of all great android apps
i really can’t wait for this, i check the market almost hourly. i’ve heard that it only takes a couple of days for google to approve and publish apps? hopefully they aren’t making a fuss. either way can’t wait!
Google don’t approve apps…once published…they hit the market…
http://gizmodo.com/5043178/android-market-googles-app-store-will-not-require-approval-for-applications
hmm, wonder what the big hold up is then………
Good job man!
Great to see Facebook approved it as well! I look forward to trying it out
Dimitris – hats off to you my friend – this looks absolutely amazing – you should ask for more than 1.49 – you’ll easily get more than that especially with the feature set you have right now and are planning to add later.
You’ve done an absolutely sterling job and I am anxiously waiting it’s appearance on Market
Much much kudos to you
What’s up with people asking him to raise the price? He set the price at $1.49, and that’s part of what is driving frenzy. It’s incredible that even with the recession, people are clamoring to pay him more than he actually wants. If you want to donate more money to a dev, then by all means do it on your own. Don’t suggest he raise the price for everyone.
I’m no speculating that we may see a price increase, and that’s what the holdup is here. If the app is done, which it looks like it is, then why isn’t it on the Market yet? Add my vote to keeping it at $1.49, or at least as an introductory price.
I know when I saw $1.49 as the price, I immediately decided to buy it, WITHOUT THOUGHT. If it were $5 or $10, I’d have to start thinking about it.
So, you’ve got a $500 phone but you’d have to think carefully about paying $5 for well-written, full-featured software you *really* want that is better by far than any of the competition?
Seriously?
Tight-wad
Is this really something worth fighting over?…
Dimitris said that the application is going to be $1.50…
If anyone wants to donate more they can find a way to do so…
I wasn’t fighting, I was only playing
Also, I never meant that he *should* charge more, only that he *could* and we would all still buy it
Bloo is now available on the Android MarketPlace!
Downloading…
IT’S IN THE MARKET!!!!!!!!!
I’m using it now….best $1.50 I spent. Kudos to the dev for an amazing app. Looking forward to it getting even better!!
