And this is one I have often wondered myself, what good does it really do you to monitor your accounts on your iPhone? I have the ability to VNC into my home PC from anywhere, launch EVE, and update queues, but I know not everyone can do that. Just a random question, reallyà
Let me go over some user cases where Capsuleer is clearly superior.
1) Speed. If I say I wonder if I need to train today or tomorrow, I can go from a powered off device to knowing the answer in under 5 seconds. On my computer, it approaches 30 seconds from clicking on icon to being able to get the information. I suspect your through in VNC and cell networks and the number goes up.
2) Multi-account - this is huge for me!!!! You can see what needs to be trained for 3 accounts in the same time as 1. Where as it would be two minutes to check three different queues using the client.
3) Push. From my turned off iPhone and iPad I hear a voice say "skill queue low" when there is less than 24 hours remaining. No EVE Gate "mobile web friendly" page can do that
reread that bullet point, meho. i never said anything about checking on my characters, i said update my training queues. if you have a way to do that within Capsuleer, please tell me how, because I have never seen it.
What I was driving at was that ou have your iPhone with you, you are at the local bar (deleted for obvious meanness) when Capsuleer says skill queue low. ZOMFFSM! I have less than 24 hours in my skill queue in EVE! I can't do a damn thing about it either! Where is the actual need to have a monitoring device on something that you cannot even run EVE on?
Also, I NEVER mentioned an EVE Gate mobile friendly. Pleas read the post before your comment on what I say, k?
As for "seeing what needs to be trained" you could not see what you needed to train short of digging into the skills and searching for what you were shooting for.
Oh, and here is a nice one, too. So, you need to monitor when your skills are ending. You install EVEMon. You turn on the external calendar and point it to your google calendar. You set up your google calendar on your iPhone. NOW you can get notifications of when your skills end clear down to 15min before hand!! WOWEEZOWEE the miracles of technology.
It was a good app that, quite frankly, had not been updated in a long time. Some small update pushes instead of waiting for the whole shebang would have been nice, but it never happened, and now never will.
Go get iClone, its a good app.
iClone blows. Too bulky, too slow.
