actioncenter-mobile

Is this actually from the EFF or is the EFF Action Center a change.org-style site where anyone can submit petitions? I ask only because the text of the letter isn't particularly well written and contains some glaring mistakes: "Wrap every app in the Apple store with unnecessary DRM" (emphasis mine). Apple isn't the government, and no one is compelled to enter into a contract with them. The EFF's reason for removing their Action Center app from the App Store are outlined in this petition, which is ironic considering the app itself is a web app made native with the Ionic framework[2]. Nothing in Apple's terms prevents the EFF from releasing the app on the web (nor do they have to agree to any of Apple's terms to release a web app).

If the EFF didn't develop the application and release the source, what exactly is this: https://github.com/EFForg/actioncenter-mobile And quoting from the README: "Although it works on both iOS and Android, the app is only targeting Android as of today. If you need to deploy to iOS as well, please check out the Ionic docs or contact the project maintainer for help." What more do you want?

They still say "Although it works on both iOS and Android, the app is only targeting Android as of today. If you need to deploy to iOS as well, please check out the Ionic docs or contact the project maintainer for help." https://github.com/EFForg/actioncenter-mobile

You can see the site here: https://github.com/EFForg/actioncenter-mobile/tree/master/ww... Since the app is basically only for notifications, it's useless as a web site. If you want sign up for email notifications, go to https://act.eff.org/

For any other non-profits or companies who might need a similar app to notify users, both the app (Cordova + Ionic) and the APNS/GCM push notification server are open source and available here: https://github.com/EFForg/pushserver https://github.com/EFForg/actioncenter-mobile If you're an Android user, consider downloading the app. Its really, really simple - it just sends you a push notification if there's an action EFF needs your help with - but we hope to improve it over time. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.eff.action...
