  1. I think most of you guys are misunderstanding the fundamentals here. Think of your computer. Why do some people with computer games have graphical glitches, but the same game on a console like the ps3 rarely ever suffers from similar glitches? Because every ps3 out there is mass produced and running on the same hardware, whereas computers are different in every house. The computers require different drivers to pass information through the different components in the computer, and that information routing can change to some degree depending on what hardware you have. This affects how the program must be written, and requires MORE coding to make it blanket the entire market of pc's. The same is true of this debate. Iphones all have the same hardware, sure different generations have different hardware, but all iphone 4's are running on the same processor. With androids, you have different processors, different amounts of memory, different mainboards that are setup by different manufactureres. The android app will require more coding to be compatible with all of these. If they pushed out an app without developing it correctly, you would have some people who could run it just fine, and other people who would get nothing but crashes. Personally, i applaud them for not pushing the app out before its ready and frustrating half their smartphone using fanbase.
