Android OAC Player

Post

So, FotF has released a player for Android.

I think I'm sticking with the unofficial(902K) because it looks better to me. Plus if the OAC runs the same as the internet player, it will quit after a few minutes.

What's up with these Permissions for the FotF player?

Location precise location (GPS and network-based)
SMS send SMS messages
Phone directly call phone numbers

Yech.

What's the name of the player? Is it for the OAC club?

And honestly, those permissions aren't all that unusual for apps these days, most of those you still have to give your permission again for it to actually use any of those. I know there are some apps you have to be worried about, but I think people are sometimes paranoid as far as that goes..

ETA: The name is the Odyssey Adventure Club.

I downloaded it, and the layout seems to leave a lot to be desired. :/

Well, I just downloaded the app, but for some reason when I log in with the correct information, it says, login failed. Does anyone else have this problem?

You need to log into your Odyssey Adventure Club account to prove that you are an paying OAC member. It's really not that unreasonable.

I haven't had this issue, but I do feel that the design is very clunky, as I said before. If you log in with your admin account, you're able to pick whom you'd like to use the app as, so maybe that would work?
