I'm SO excited to announce that Itchy, the app for Scratch, is officially out on both the Google Play store and the iOS App Store! With the combined efforts of myself and @ileb we have finally got a release out cross-platform, and I'm very proud of it. I firmly believe that it's the easiest way to use Scratch on mobile, and I hope you'll give it a shot. You can find the download links at https://itchy.micahlindley.com/ if you're interested.
Within the next few weeks, I will officially be releasing Itchy version 2.0 - the most full-featured Scratch client for Android and iOS devices! It aims for full compatibility with anything that you'd regularly do on Scratch, in a way that's pretty to look at and easy to use. It also comes with cool built-in features like a custom key-mapped controller for playing Scratch projects only meant for desktop.
This is a huge deal for me and a ton of work has gone into it!
Struggling a lot with burnout on personal projects... really feeling the pain of having like five different projects that could have become something but are instead languishing in some unfinished state on my GitHub profile. How much of a developer are you if you never actually get a project to a finished state?
Comments are back on wasteof for Android - thanks for y'all's patience!
Latest wasteof for Android update broke the buttons in the header -- I'll try to roll out a hotfix tomorrow. Sorry, I'm off my game apparently
Those who still use Scratch, what would be your use case for mobile app? Like what would you mostly use it for and how would you want to do that?
I miss this place sometimes
(I feel guilty for not finishing wasteof for Android)
A quick poll: how many of you would be offended or stop using the app if I set up Firebase Crashlytics in wasteof for Android? It would enable me to better diagnose bugs and crashes in the app, but would also mean that the app would technically contact Google's servers.
