Android app size issues #17

Is it going to be same as FW2? Also, I wondering how does the ESL Blaster connects with the app?

furrtek commented 4 months ago

Yes it's the same, just replace ESLBlaster02.bin with ESLBlaster0..bin. The ESL Blasters I sell on Tindie are pre-programmed with the 0.3 firmware.

They appear via USB as a virtual serial port. That's also how they connect to the Android app.

After using the app, there are some of my observations. 1) It will help if it was allowed manually adding pixel length and width rather than slider. As a requirement, the size is supposed to be multiple of 8, the sliding part is repeated several times before it lands on the multiple of 8 value. Without selecting the multiple of 8, the image is not transferred. 2) I have been able to transfer 120*120 px image. Anything more than that is not being send. Also, the image occupies the left side of the tag. I think max length for px is possibly 120~144? Width would be slight twice the size. (I have a medium sized tag.) 3) If there were instructions on how to use the app itself, it will make the process smooth.

Thank you for the work!
