  Re: Mobile SCD Cribs

  Hello,
     I am very pleased that Charlie has made versions of his app for
     both Apple and Android devices. I know its a lot of work. So
     thanks!
  
     I am also curious to know if anyone on the list has tried either of
     two similar SCD focussed apps: Pochette or SCD Tools? I heard of
     them a year or two ago but they are only available for Android
     devices - which I do not currently have.
  
     I think Charlie has said he hopes to extend the functionality of
     his app in future, but I have the impression that both Pochette and
     SCD Tools not only display cribs & diagrams but also link SCDDB
     dances with music tracks on your device which I would find very
     useful. Though I think Charlie’s app may be the only one linking
     videos.
  
     If anyone who does have an Android device would like to compare and
     contrast these tools (and report back) their websites are
     http://www.pochette.org/ <http://www.pochette.org/> and
     https://www.scottishdance.ru/en/rscds-russia/scd-tools/scd-tools-
     pocket <https://www.scottishdance.ru/en/rscds-russia/scd-tools/scd-
     tools-pocket> (and the google playstore entries appear to be
     https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.pochette.pochette
     <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.pochette.pochett
     e> and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=scd.tools
     <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=scd.tools>).
  Cheers,  Murrough.
