Fiksgatami is a project mainly written in Java, it's free.

FixMyStreet Android application

The Fix My Street directory contains a complete application that should open directly in Eclipse.

However, to compile it as an .apk, you will need to add the following JAR file to your build path - it makes the multipart messages work.

  • httpmime-4.1.1.jar

This file is a part of HttpClient 4.1.1 from http://hc.apache.org/downloads.cgi

Hopefully it will no longer be needed in future versions of Android.

I've compiled it against version 1.6.

Note that the app has to be signed to go onto the Android Market, contact [email protected] to do this.

TODO (if you're an Android developer and wish to help mySociety, ---- feel free to volunteer for any of these)

  • Improve flow - when you start the app, there should really be a welcome message explaning what FMS is, and a "Click here to take a photo" button, then after the photo a "Now add your details" screen. At the moment the opening screen doesn't really make sense unless you already know what FixMyStreet is - it should be more welcoming.
