Thinking about buying this phone again after 4 months with the one plus one

Is the gaming still laggy on the device... I had it with 5.1 installed I think and it was laggy when I played games mortal kombat x or modern combat 5... It plays fine on my one plus one but people have been telling at my job that with the recent updates the phone is 10x times better than it was in April... Is this true? And has the enforced encryption finally been removed... Amazon is selling the unlocked 32gb for 350 no contract....

[Post Mortem] The one-week update that last four months

Hi! I’m Pierre Benayoun and I’m an French indie Dev. I work on Activity tracking on android since more than one year.

I work since February on an android app named « Fit Plus« . The purpose is to use all data collected by Google Fit to give specific nice data and analysis like « You broke your walking record, congrats! ».

There was a prototype online, but I worked on a new version which could give more interesting data since end of March. Initially the update should take one week. But finishing this version takes lot more time than I thought.

At last, I uploaded the new version last week… four month later.

And now?

So here is a post about that four months and the challenges I have to overcome.

This post is made from a post on Medium but I cannot yet make any external link so I will make a comment by challenge. Any feedback appreciated!

When you start a journey to the unknown, don’t expect be back for lunchtime

Let’s resume the facts

• I work since the beginning of 2014 on Activity Tracking on Android


• Early 2015 I decide to play why Google fit API. This little software let you and your app get (and play) with data monitor by Google Fit.


• First step: Fit Plus a little app which display all activities monitored by Google Fit and some statistics.


• At the end of march I finalised a little prototype and I expect to deliver an upgrade the week after. Finally, the update will be ready at the end of July: four months later.

So whyyyy ?

First of all a startup/indie app is a project where unknown is the rule. The Lean Startup method exists (amongst other things) for this reason. You cannot control your agenda and here are Six challenges I had to overcome that explains this four month delay.
