What’s with FFS

Blaine is closing down, Windows Mobile is now hard to get on a new device and he does not want to recode for Android or iOS. We are working with him to get the license transferred so sales can continue and we will move to an Android platform. Might take a few months to work out, be we are pretty sure we will be back online soon.
 
Thanks. Will there still be support for the existing system or will we have to transfer to the new one. Blaine and FFS was excellent to work with but I understand the situation.
 
I can actually offer support on the current version, we will continue to offer that so long as WM computers are available. Updating will be an option, but other than a lack of machines, there's no compelling reason to go to Android.
 
Hi,

@ZiaHunter
Would something like this be of any help to you?

I've been contemplating this happening for some time. Over the years, try as I might, I just can't get into using smart phones or tablets out in the field, and just prefer the Nomad with its stylus and tactile buttons. And it goes without saying that most phones/tablets can't handle the weather (cold/hot/rain/snow) anywhere near the way the Nomad does.

The market has plenty of true milspec Android devices available in many form factors to satisfy almost every possible use so there is no reason for still trying to resuscitate Windows Mobile which Microsoft itself sent to the graveyard so many years ago. As a former user of both FFS and CB on a Nomad I never looked back when smartphones arrived. Nowadays I'm a happy Genesis user.

Ill be stoked When FFS comes to android. Ill be able to run FFS and Genesis on my android device and other stuff on the ios devices for data analysis with CB at home on the desktop. I may phase out FFS eventally but i still like it. but Genesis will be my go to.

One of the dev engineers I work with always refers to BT as “shitty WiFi.” Sure, the cables are more reliable, but I really dig the integrated trigger.
