Hi Jérome,

I would like to know if SABMobile is coming for windows mobile as well.    
I liked your app Synoload, but since that is for Downloadstation only i don't use it very much.

Hi,

Because there was absolutely NO return from WinMob users (you're the second one), I have discontinued supporting WinMob 6. So no, there won't be any more updates for WinMob. I'll see about Windows Phone 7 though

Jérôme

Hi all,

SynoLoad just turned 1 year old, so it's 50% off on the AppStore today ! It's time to buy it if you didn't do it already.

Cheers,

Hi all,

I bought the iPad version, and started testing it. The only problem I have is when I log in with my second user (full admin rights) i can not add downloads to the download list. When I change my user account back to Admin that is possible.

Is there a solution for this problem?

Thanks in advance,

Reinder Jan

Hi,

Can you log into the download station part using the web browser, and check that the download folder is correct ?

If everything is fine (download folder is set, you have write access to the folder), send me a comment through the app after having had the error message, I'll be able to see the debug log.

Thanks,
Jérôme

Hi Jérôme

I purchased Synoload for Ipad and it's exactly the kind of application I was looking for.
Finally an easy app that allows me to search for content and directing it to Download Station immediately.

The only thing is that it doesn't look very nice, but that is a minor issue really.
Well worth the small price (and I'm Dutch too   )

Thanks for your efforts!

Regards
Sander

Thanks! About the design, I will try to improve that.

PS: don't forget to rate the app

Just bought the app, kinda pricey... but ok, it does exactly what I was looking for and works on iphoen and ipad. Now I wanna configure some search engines and RSS feeds(add manual) a little explanation here about link id, titel id, grootte id, custom etc. would be very welcome.
Can you provide some info and an example?

Hi Jérôme,

Already contacted you through the support button in the app,but I would like to mention it here too. ( also for future customers )

Yesterday I decided to buy the app because it looked like just the tool I wanted to remotely add download jobs to my DS212+
I read the description in the app store and thought this app would meet my requirements.
Even though the app has a steep price ( € 3.99 ) I purchased it, just because of the above mentioned reasons.

However in de past day I have not been able to make it work.

Now I come to the understanding that this app doesn't support SABnzbd  
I know, maybe I should have done some more carefull reading, but I have to say that I find it disapointing that you haven't made a remark about this in the description of this app.

So this message has two goals :
1 : please add to the app description that it doens't support SABnzbd
2 : please add SABnzbd support to your app ( so I don't feel like having spent mony for an app I will never use )

Hi Eric,

Sabnzbd is not standard Synology software, so why did you expect Synoload to work with it?

I honestly don't think the mistake here is at the side of the maker of the app.

Synoload is for the standard download station functionality of the NAS (as is clearly described in the app description @ http://itunes.apple.com/nl/app/synoload ... 28089?mt=8). If it was compatible with Sabnzbd, which is not available by default on a Synology, you might expect him to mention Sabznbd in the description. Not the other way around.

SynoLoad allows you to connect to your Download Station and manage your downloads. You will be able to add or remove files, but also check the speed or pause downloads.

If you want a client for Sabnzbd, you can download an app like "SabMobile" for example. Or search for Sabnzbd in the itunes store. There are many compatible apps, but I prefer SabMobile.

I understand what you mean Bjorn, and I partly agree with you.

Ofcourse I should have read better, absolutely.
But for me, and I guess for a whole lot of other users, the difference between Synology Download Station and Third Party packages is a bit more difficult to comprehense.

The way I looked at it whas "a download is a download", so an app that offers me the ability to remotely start my downloads is the app I need.
I always thought that the term "download station" was a way to inform people that you can use the Synology to download. I never saw it as the name of the package    

And again, you are right when you say that there is a mention about Download Station in the description. Ah well, let's consider this as a lesson for me.

Therefore my previous message, just to inform others users not to make the same mistake I made.
( or am I really the only one who is that stupid ?      )

Hi,

I'm sorry to hear about that, but honestly, I won't modify the application description to mention that the app won't connect to SABnzbd+, nor Transmission, nor µTorrent, nor nzbget, nor any other downloading software. I have never seen an application saying "I can do that, but I won't do that".

I list all the features of the app... assume that what's not listed isn't available, and if you think that it's there, just ask

As you may have seen, I answer to the emails fairly regularly (may have 24hrs delay when no internet connection).

In your case, I've sent you a redeem code to download SABMobile for free, but I would really suggest your read the description better next time ;-)

Cheers,
Jérôme

PS: If you bought SynoLoad for 3.99€, please let me know where you bought it because it's 1€ more than it should be... the price should be 2.99€...
