Hello,

For many years I have used both versions of dvd profiler, and with great success, the pc version as well as the android version, just perfect.
Some time ago, I wanted to update my database on my mobile.  That had worked perfect for many years but now it couldn't make the connection anymore, very strange.
Now I have bought a new mobile and I wanted to install the mobile app.  Unfortunately I cannot find a downloadable app anywhere.
Can anyone help me please.

Thank you very much.

Like the desktop version it's no longer being updated and has effectively been withdrawn from the store because it hasn't been recertified with the latest version of the OS.

You used to be able to workaround it by buying it from the amazon app store, but I don't think even that ones available anymore.

Pretty much all you can do is upload your collection and browse it using your phones browser if you want to view it when not at home.

Hi Lithurge, thank you for your reaction.

Omg, all what you tell here, does that mean that Invelos doesn't exist anymore? Or that they have totally stopped with dvd profiler?
For sure I hope not, for me this is almost a work of life.  My database has more than 9000 records, all with complete cast and crew, included photographs.

I'm viewing it as end of life, i.e. no updates to the program, but they are still maintaining access to the database for submission and downloading.

They also replaced a server that failed recently, preventing any online connection, so we can still submit profiles which the screeners still approve.

This change of server has broken the incremental online database update for the local profiler when adding new titles, which can be worked around by selecting the online tab in profiler, then holding CTRL while selecting Refresh Online Profile list.

You can continue using it locally even when the online functionality stops altogether. What I can't remember is how the registration works. If it requires online validation then at that point any need to reinstall would see us having to use the limited version which would mean the loss of a number of features.

  One thing to remember is your old phone works. You may not be able to dial out but you can still run apps on it. Also the newer phones are almost all 64bit. DVD Prolifer mobile is not, therefore it will not run on the newer phones even is you can find the *.apk file you need.
