ALP Connect Android Beta Testers

Should we be reporting back in this thread?
If so, here is a question. Unless I'm doing something wrong seems like I have to force stop the app after I disconnect and leave the car.
The icon on the top bar will not go away unless I force stop. When I try to turn off the app within the app, It will turn off the main screen but the icon does not go away.
HTC One running 4.4.2

Otherwise everything is working great so far, there is very little lag between the phone & BT module.

I already reported this one. The latest version will show an icon in the status bar and will prompt you when exiting the program, but it appears to still have some issues. AL is working hard on it and making great progress so hang in there...

Ok sounds good, no problem.
Yep the icon even says I'm still connected when not, good to know I wasn't missing something.

Thanks.

If you ever want to be 100% certain go to the main connection menu and see if the bluetooth icon is BLUE. If it's white then you are not connected. They need to get the connection issues fixed because they are confusing and are going to give someone a false sense of security.

Working great on my Sony Xperia SP! Do I need to enable something to have the pop up window when running in the background? If its not implemented at the moment because of other priorities no worries!

Android by default does not do that. There are 3rd party apps that will bring alerts from selected programs up front but AL is seeing if they can force a floating kill box with gun id. Product is not complete yet.

Sounds good thanks Tom! I will look into some 3rd party apps for time being!

An option could be added for an auto 30 second delay self stop, after disconnected. So if you ignore the prompt Mirage just mentioned, the app would just close itself.
Just thinking out loud here...

Let us know what you find please.

The app is designed to auto reconnect if bluetooth is lost. Its an issue they are working on and will have resolved shortly.

I have similar issues with YaV1 on Note 3, I've just made it a habit to quit the app from its menu, then bring up the running apps and swipe it out. Then it works fine when I re-open it and reconnect., maybe this will work for you with the ALP app?
