Revision history [back]

Allthough I might get blamed for this question, I'll ask it anyway.

So far I think Jolla did a great job with releasing it's first smartphone and providing Sailfish OS as successor of Maemo/Meego.

But: almost 4 months after the initial release there are still many issues open.

To name a few:

• Caldav support
• Folder support
• Enable 4G/LTE
• Support for paid apps in Harbour
• Support for QT APIs

Some of those issues are probably responsible for some developers not going to support Sailfish in its current state. Some are probably responsible for users not wanting to buy a phone without those features.

So I think there are many issues open, that have a severe effect on Jollas business (i.e. not selling devices, no revenue from sold applications, etc.).

Also there is this unique "The Other Half" feature but there seems to be nothing done from Jolla's side to enable it (despite those Angry-Birds-TOH that is).

But Jolla seems to concentrate on Android compatibility, just announcing first test images of sailfish for the Nexus 4 and announcing work on ports for other android devices.

There seems to be no information about next release for our Jollas. There is no roadmap to see when which feature/bugfix will be introduced.

So this is, why my question is: Why does Jolla Oy seem to concentrate more on Android compatability then Jolla itself?

Allthough I might get blamed for this question, I'll ask it anyway.

To name a few:

• Support for paid apps in Harbour Still nothing after almost 12 months now!
• Support for QT APIs Still nothing after almost 12 months now!

Also there is this unique "The Other Half" feature but there seems to be nothing done from Jolla's side to enable it (despite those Angry-Birds-TOH that is).there seems to be only one brave group of hobbiest now creating the keyboard OH, but nothing else from Jolla or 3rd party which could be because Jolla does not really promote it as they promote Android for example.

But Jolla seems to concentrate on Android compatibility, just announcing first test images of sailfish for the Nexus 4 and announcing work on ports for other android devices.

There seems to be no information about next release for our Jollas. There is no roadmap to see when which feature/bugfix will be introduced.Due to the continued android support it seems as if updates for sailfish OS frequency went down.

So this is, why my question is: isstill remains: Why does Jolla Oy seem to concentrate more on Android compatability then Jolla itself?
