It would appear that this has been resolved (or has it?) Magdalena checked with Nxtbook and the Android app is compatible with Android based devices using operating systems: 2.3-Gingerbread, 4.0-Ice Cream Sandwich, and 4.1- Jelly Bean. According to Nxtbook, this is "all inclusive" of current (but not older) devices. The Android app is not compatible with Kindle. A separate Kindle app is available through Nxtbook. Does the use of an Android mobile product subject our DRM or the user's privacy to a lower level of assurance than the browser version? I am not an Android user so I am not entirely certain but it appears that the dedicated mobile app has a lower level of privacy than the browser version. This is because in every browser that I have seen, History, Tracking, Cookies, etc. can be disabled by the user. At present, the Tracking function cannot be disabled on the Android mobile app. FYI, I am heading to Orlando Hamcation early tomorrow morning, so I may be off-line most of tomorrow during the day.
