aLive : follow your match everywhere !
with your Android device
aLive is not dead
May 24th
You may wonder why there is no more news from aLive since few months, well I feel very sad about this, since I’m really close to a stable release. But I definitely lack of time at the moment, and I have no idea when I’ll be able to continue aLive development.
But aLIve is not dead, I’ve good hope to finish it … one day.

Feb 28th
Update 0.9.7, thanks to me9mill for his English skill 
Changelog :

- English texts correction
aLive, version 0.9.6
Feb 26th
aLive is now on the official Android Market ! Updates for beta-tester will be easier.
Please note the app is not yet published on Hattrick, so you can’t use it without asking me first.
Changelog for version 0.9.6 :
- aLive is now working with Android 1.5 and 1.6 !
- Fancy tabs on the match details page
- Quit button added to quit the app and stop live updating
- Event icons added on the match details page
Hope for a final release soon, just few more bugs to fix…
Beta available !
Jan 22nd
aLive beta version is available. Development of all main features is finished, I just need a bit more time to finish details. In the meantime I release a beta version to ensure everything works fine on other Android device.
Please contact me if you wanna test.
Free or paying app ?
Jan 13th
That’s one of the last question I have to answer before publishing aLive, I haven’t decide yet whether or not it will be free of charge.
I have no illusion on the money I can earn selling a mobile, but at least it will be good if it pays me back the Google Android Market fee (25$). On the other hand, I have spent a lot of time developing this app, I want it to be used by many Hattrick users. Give it for free will be a good choice to spread it, mainly because there are already some other mobile app, and more will come out soon.
Free of charge often means ads, that’s a classic usage on the Internet. I don’t really like ads, especially on mobile device where the screen is small enough with no ad. And also, I don’t know exactly how they work, but I pretty sure it’s not a good point for your privacy.
The third solution is a donation page. I discover flattr few time ago, it’s a kind of “social donation system” (created by a Sweden company in Malmö, what a coincidence…). I don’t know if it’s already widespread, but anyway the concept looks much better than a simple Paypal donation page. I have installed the flattr widget in the left sidebar, feel free to use it 
And last solution, 2 versions of the app, the first with limited features and free of charge, the second with full features and available for few cents.
What do you think ?
Dev blog is here !
Jan 10th
Welcome to aLive dev blog !
aLive (small a, cap L) is an Android app for following your Hattrick match and matches of your friends / leaguemates.
aLive is developed by myself (vichenze), with the help of my sister for some graphical needs. I develop it on my free time, therefore I can’t work on it as much as I wish. But anyway we are close to a beta realase now.
Hope you will enjoy it !
