Wish there was some way to look at some detail of what i'm being billed for before my bill arrives. All I can currently see is the value of the unbilled amount.




Generally known online as OpenMedia, now working for Red Hat APAC as a Technology Evangelist and Portfolio Architect. Still playing with MythTV and digital media on the side.

I wish it would remember my password so when I connect over wifi I don't have to type it in. Even if it only remembers it for a week or a month that's fine. It would be reasonable to validate the password before purchasing extras.

Also, why can't I buy bundles of extra voice minutes like I can txt and data? I'll work around it by using Skype, but it's a bit inconsistent.

If you click up the top right of the app there is the auto sign in checkbox that works over 3g and Wifi.

Plus the password is good for one year. I should know since I built it.

Ah I see it now thanks. It's top left, and the standard android menu button doesn't pop it out so I bet many people never find it. Maybe a small tweak for the next version.

I seem to remember when I first ran up the app and logged in it asked me if I wanted to remember the password.  I clicked yes and never had to do it again until the password expires next Year I guess.

And if you talk to me nicely I can see if I can make the password expire after a longer time....

I think annual password entry is fairly acceptable.
