Android 5 (Lollipop)

My Nexus 7 tablet was recently updated to Android 5, is this fully supported? It seems to be working correctly, but i was wondering if there are any "got ya's" I should be aware of.

My Nexus 7 tablet was recently updated to Android 5, is this fully supported? It seems to be working correctly, but i was wondering if there are any "got ya's" I should be aware of.

I also am using Lollipop on my Nexus 7 and I've reported three bugs to the team.

1) There is an odd gray background in the Read view while a resource is loading (which I've been told is fixed internally already)
2) The audio player controls on the lock screen do not work correctly
3) The app will crash if you try to switch to "grid view" in the library.

That's all I've found, but we should report any other issues we find. Android Lollipop has TONS of changes for developers to deal with, more than any other release of Android. So it's not surprising that there are a few little things not working properly.

Thanks for replying.

I can reproduce some of these bugs.

Can't reproduce 1

Perhaps this has been fixed already.

We have not performed extensive testing with Android 5 as it was just released a day or two ago to physical devices. Similar to what happened with the recent release(s) of iOS 8.x on Apple devices, problems can (and probably will) occur as a result of running our apps on new operating systems.

Early adopters of Android 5 risk experiencing problems not seen in Android 4.x, and this is to be expected not just for Faithlife apps, but for many other vendor apps. After the release of iOS 8.x there were a flood of app updates to catch up and fix issues seen with the new operating system.
