Check out My app Mixion. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.taskail.mixion
I am proud and confident to say that this is the FIRST! fully NATIVE Steemit Android app. What about eSteem? eSteem is a fully featured Steemit app but it is a Hybrid app, as most of you know... hybrid app are not always optimal in performance. The main reason why i began this project was precisely because i was not satisfied with what was currently available.
I was even further disappointed seeing other "Android apps" that are nothing more than a web-view (basically putting a browser inside an app and loading the webpage)
As of right now Mixion works as a steemit feed reader, I will continue working on improving it and adding more features into it. Posting and commenting will come next as I will begin working with SteemJ
Which can already post and comment. Share this Steem, let all the android users download my app, I need your feedback!!
Great work !
Here is an advice : when doing an app that use keys, you should put the code on GitHub.
It's all about trust.
Don't worry, you will still be able to make money that way (as an example by taking a percent from the rewards of posts done through your app, through rewards of your posts here regarding its development, etc.)
Keep up the good work.
P.S. If you add a https://steemit.chat/ you'll be golden.
Also, check out https://steemworld.org/ you could add something like that as an advanced option in the future.
MIxion is now open source - https://steemit.com/steemdev/@edgar-trem/mixion-is-open-source-android-developers-unite

Hi, edgar-trem! I just resteemed your post!
I can also re-steem and upvote some of your other posts
Curious? Check out @resteembot's' introduction post

Thanks so much, @edgar-trem - Downloaded and am playing around with it now. Looks like a great start. I upvoted and resteemed this, and will do a write up on it as well. I noticed that the AskSteem entries weren't clickable. Running it on. Google Pixel XL. Keep up the great work!
Yes that's right, AskSteem provides a small snippet of the steem discussion, so I'll have to download the entire post on a separate query. It'll be easy to do, as I'll just recycle some of the code I'm using in the feed section. I'll make sure to include this on the next beta release in a few days
Cool, looking forward to it. Keep up the great work!
What are your opinions so far? My main goal is to make a snappy and responsive app.
Hey, try out steemion as well. There might be some features you would like to bring in mixion
I did try steemion as well, in my opinion it was garbage
It never left unreleased stage, so may be but I hope you can take some things from there.
Very nice! You should get more attention for this project. In fact we were just talking in the #beyondbitcoin #whaletank about @thekyle and his AskSteem search engine and I saw he resteemed your project. So would you want to join next Saturday and talk about what you're doing?
Yes definitely, I need more users to get some feedback. I just released Beta 2 with AskSteem fully functional

Yeah well I know that from personal experience and thus I went to talk on the #BeyondBitcoin #Whaletank, come talk about it too. I'm sure we'd love to have ya!
Awesome to see native apps being developed for Steemit!! You should open source it, that would mean that development is much faster as other people can contribute! But anyway, resteemed so other people can see!
