John - I logged on to the website and saw that you were online, so I logged on with the client. But it doesn't list any users for me to contact. Maybe because of the distance? I'm in Oregon, USA -Brad
Hi Brad. Well only a couple of people have installed the app so far so it does not give much of a chance to list any other users. I would be interested to try out the messaging feature I recently added between two Neo's so maybe we could arrange a mutal time online to test out. Setting maximum distance of 20,000km will give the biggest range. If you set it lower it only displays those within that distance. You also might want to set a frequent ping time for testing as this will update your user list more often. Once I have worked on the UI a bit I will announce the app properly so hopefully there will be some more users :) Thanks for testing things out at such an early stage. If you are interesting in trying the messaging etc email me jptmoore@gmail.com
