Droidin (v. 4.2.1-10) Разработано Bostone Consulting |
Access your LinkedIn on the go!
Droidin v. 4+ is the next generation of the first ever LinkedIn Android application. Droidin is fast, native Android client (not a web app) driven by the LinkedIn Open API.
SECURITY PERMISSIONS:
Droidin does not and will never collect any personal information. All the settings that you accept are required by OS to integrate with LinkedIn servers and Phonebook. The messaging is fully controlled by the user, the application has no means of sending anything without user interaction and awareness.
FINE LOCATION setting: This is used in Job Search section to (optionally, triggered by user) obtain current location. This information is fed into query and is not saved or used for any other purpose
Moving to SD:
If you can't find a widget you probably have the app moved to SD. Unfortunately Android OS currently does not support widget for apps installed to SD, so if you want widget and notifications - move the app back to phone
LOGIN ERRORS:
* If you can't login due to the timestamp error please check your phone's time settings. Phone->Settings->Date & time. Uncheck "Automatic" option and verify that your time and timezone are correct
* If you get 403 error during login try to switch to wifi. Or if you on wifi switch to the regular network and try again.
IMPORTANT: Application is in very active development (BETA). Updates are frequent and you may want to reinstall after major new functionality is added to avoid possible compatibility problems between the updates. Problems? Scroll down for help and tips
Features:
* Groups
* LinkedIn Jobs
* Sync LinkedIn contacts with your phonebook
* Log in with LinkedIn button
* Inbox messages and invitations
* Accept/decline invitations
* Reply to messages
* Network updates
* Post status updates
* Use "Send by" from other apps to post update to LinkedIn
* Like or post comments on update
* Mute annoying updates
* Contacts (alphabetized and flat view)
* Profile
* Communications (send invites and contact mail)
* Save/recover drafts
* Keywords search
* Contacts search
IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ:
As stated in the description Droidin is powered by LinkedIn Open API (http://goo.gl/diqN). This means that some important and highly desired features may not be available due to LinkedIn API current lack of support. Droidin is not affiliated with LinkedIn which solemnly decides what part of LinkedIn functionality can be exposed to 3rd party developers. Here is an incomplete list of features that are not (yet) available from LinkedIn:
1. Profile editing - not supported by API
2. No personal email syncing since LinkedIn does not provide it
We understand that the lack of functionality is crippling. Fortunately, LinkedIn API is in active development and if and when the missing features will become available we will be adding these to Droidin
TIPS:
* The app is in active development and it is heavily cached. If after update things stop working please try first to clear cache from Droidin->Settings->Clear cache.
If that does not help please logout then go to Phone->Settings->Applications->Manage applications. Locate Droidin. Clear cache, clear data and uninstall. Then install anew from the market
* If the app stops working and you get 404 error please check if LinkedIn site is up, Droidin is ultimately driven by their servers
* If app is seemingly stuck on your profile verify that you are using latest version (after 2.5.8). Clear profiles from the Settings if that doesn't help - reinstall
* Please do access menus, especially "Tips" to learn about app's capabilities

|
[2013-04-09] A Google User: 5 Gudone |
|
[2013-03-26] A Google User: Better than the official one |
|
[2013-03-25] A Google User: Excellent! Forget the Competition Fast, stable app w/w very clean interface and good customization options. MUCH better than LinkedIn's app for Android. Well done, dev! |
|
[2013-03-14] A Google User: Works perfect Exactly what I was looking for |
|
[2013-03-05] A Google User: Good but still buggy It is great to import all linkedin contacts to the phonebook, but it crashes the contacts application... :-( |
|
[2013-02-16] A Google User: Meh The stock LinkedIn app is more functional than this. |
|
[2013-02-06] A Google User: Excellent I like it |
|
[2013-01-29] A Google User: Obsolete LinkedIn app has finally passed this up |
|
[2012-12-29] A Google User: sucks doesn't load. stay away! |
|
[2012-12-28] A Google User: Gotten worse w/ads! Every time I click for a job description, 2 ads appear on bottom constantly updated every 10 seconds while the info I request is in constant buffering/loading. Time is important and waiting for more info on a job using this app is very frustrating. |
|
[2012-12-27] A Google User: Works better than the LinkedIn app which wasn't working at all for me. But would be better if I was able to put more than 140 characters. |
|
[2012-12-15] A Google User: Cool, and will take over Wow, now I know what was missing in the official Linkedin App: simplicity. I think the potential here is huge and for that, 5 stars. |
|
[2012-12-15] A Google User: Seems pretty good! Twidroid is much better developed though. They did a better job there. |
|
[2012-12-13] A Google User: Don't download! Sucked. Would not recognize security words and then could not find validation token. Don't waste your time! |
|
[2012-11-06] A Google User: What happened? This app was great, better than the original, but now it doesn't sync anymore (both tablet and phone). I've tried to revoke and grant again the permissions for the app and still not working. Will install again in the future. |
|
[2012-10-26] A Google User: Looks as terrible on a tablet as the original LinkedIn app... |
|
[2012-10-24] A Google User: Initial login rejected One star just to able to put my following comment: How can i give my review if the app always reject me to login? "LinkedIn servers rejected your initial login due to invalid time on your device.. blah.. blah.. blah..." I did whatever it takes and follow the instruction and STILL.. LOGIN ERROR. Waiting fast feedback before I uninstall this app. |
|
[2012-09-26] A Google User: Simple but works It's smaller and better than the official app. |
|
[2012-09-20] A Google User: Doesn't work HTC Amaze I longed onto Linkedin, I longed on and off, I tried several different ways this app will not work for me. It is just stuck on allowing access through Linkedzin page. |
|
[2012-09-06] A Google User: No more updates? App hasn't been updated in more than a year. Too bad! Only missing functionality is the new contact suggestions. I everything else works great! |
|
[2012-08-20] A Google User: Good Add feature to suggest connection from phone contact list.. Also contact profile can also have feature to remove connection... |
|
[2012-07-30] A Google User: Doesn't show whole comments This app doesn't show the whole comment on posts that are longer than a few paragraphs. It would be nice if there were a "click to see more" button or something. |
|
[2012-07-29] A Google User: Scrolling group posts is awful! Any group post longer than a few sentences doesn't show all of the text. Trying to scroll to see the remaining post is near impossible. |
|
[2012-07-26] A Google User: Touch Site is better than all the apps in the mkt. Website is better. |
|
[2012-07-25] A Google User: Useless? I can't even log in... Possible bug? With that said, it is useless. Guess I'll use the "stock" app. |
|
[2012-07-22] A Google User: Nice but could be better Can I edit my profile? |
|
[2012-07-19] A Google User: Fix the jobs posting I love everything about this app except that the job postings never load. |
|
[2012-07-01] A Google User: Oath never worked |
|
[2012-06-30] A Google User: Total crap This app simply does not work. |
|
[2012-06-28] A Google User: app s fine linked in is crap never been able to log in on a mobile device |
|
[2012-06-28] A Google User: Ok |
|
[2012-06-27] A Google User: Good for me Awesome app for me |
|
[2012-06-20] A Google User: Droid razor Works like it should..perrrrfect |
|
[2012-06-17] A Google User: Its good I prefer it than the official apk |
|
[2012-06-17] A Google User: Great job Heads and shoulders above linkedin tinkertoy app |
|
[2012-06-17] A Google User: Excellent for a beta... On the right track, will upgrade to Pro soon! |
|
[2012-06-08] A Google User: Nice Word |
|
[2012-06-06] A Google User: Changed password? I've just changed my password on site (through my desktop PC) but I can still access my profile in this app (and the official one too): why? |
|
[2012-06-03] A Google User: OK but job search don't work Would be OK if you could open jobs from it. All I get is the job overview and when click for further info it just sits there doing nothing |
|
[2012-05-19] A Google User: Dose not support the whole world |
|
[2012-05-15] A Google User: Awesome Even in beta, this app kicks the crap out of the official one, and without the continual privacy protection fails. For those complaining that the app is buggy, READ THE DEV'S DESCRIPTION - this is a beta version (early release). And for those who say the official version is better, don't make me laugh. It seems to have been created by an 8-year old. |
|
[2012-05-15] A Google User: Could you enable adding contacts to lists? Other than that, great functionality and interface. |
|
[2012-05-10] A Google User: Super! What the official app should've been! Where the official linked in app is slow and laggy - this really delivers. Nice and swift, great! Someone wrote about notifications - just set them for once a day or turn them off, I did - you get the linked in emails anyway, right? I would love it if the links in linkedin invites would take me to the app, in my phone. I think doodle works like that. But maybe that requires a change in the mails that are sent... |
|
[2012-05-03] A Google User: Sucks ... Hammers your notifications full of irrelevant nonsense, hourly ... For an actual professional, this is worse than useless. Uninstall. Anyway, there's always the official Linkedin App which is miles better and which I frequently use. |
|
[2012-04-26] A Google User: So so Seems working but not very different from official LinkedIn app. create 4x4 widget and maybe I'll buy pro version... |
|
[2012-04-14] A Google User: Doesn't load job descriptions Worked great when I first installed it. Now it doesn't load job descriptions when I click on it. -Samsung Captivate |
|
[2012-04-10] A Google User: Nearly 5 stars It's better than original app, but it's missing function to see, who viewed own profile and view/reply to questions |
|
[2012-04-06] A Google User: Love that is sync's to my contacts! Have only had it installed for about 24 hours, but already love this App |
|
[2012-03-21] A Google User: Doesn't sync properly Buggy. Stopped synchronizing updates. Manual refresh didn't work. Uninstall + reinstall didn't work. |
|
[2012-03-17] A Google User: Was good before. Not anymore. |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: Development finished? No active development anymore. No updates since august 2011. Application still buggy. Sync with contacts gets lost. If application is reinstalled it reads the linkedin info again and stores it. Result is a huge database with contact information. Its gets bigger after each reinstall. So if you get a low memory warning you know the cause. Don't by the pro version; it has the same bugs! |
|
[2012-03-11] A Google User: followed log in instructions but doesn't work.. shame. installed right away.. |
|
[2012-03-10] A Google User: Great |
|
[2012-03-04] A Google User: Good options.. . Make your home screen as functional as the official application and this would go from decent to great |
|
[2012-03-03] A Google User: Loss of contacts sync I have to resync the contacts everytime after restart the mobile |
|
[2012-03-01] A Google User: Permissions I don't see why it needs to access my phone contacts |
|
[2012-02-27] A Google User: Awesome! Much better than official LinkedIn app Great app, much easier to use than official app. Adverts are a very small price to pay for it to be free to download! Nice one... |
|
[2012-02-19] A Google User: Better than the linked in app Much better than the linked in official app but requires further optimization for tablets and ics |
|
[2012-02-19] A Google User: Epic |
|
[2012-02-15] A Google User: Does not work Used to work All of a sudden stopped giving error you are not authorised. |
|
[2012-02-10] A Google User: Really? Seriously? Installed ready to access LinkedIn on my Android tablet. Says my device time/timezone is wrong. They ARE CORRECT! Have always been. Uninstalled. |
|
[2012-02-02] A Google User: So far so good It does what it says on the tin. Solid so far. |
|
[2011-12-22] A Google User: Very buggy! Searching results in many errors - all entries show as private, tapping entries opens error dialog multiple times, and server error code is in results |
|
[2011-12-10] A Google User: Amazing! I like the direction they took this app. On first Gen Moto Droid |
|
[2011-12-10] A Google User: Best linkedin app This is a helluva lot better then the official crap app. |
|
[2011-12-10] A Google User: Ok Good app, needs work. Can't apply to jobs |
|
[2011-12-02] A Google User: Frustratingly close to great Second row of icons on the main screen are half-hidden on my compact device (Samsung GALAXY Fit GT-S5670). Not quite properly optimised for tablet devices either. But it's still much cleaner than the official app. |
|
[2011-11-18] A Google User: Good app, faster than the Linkedin one, but don't allow to search people that are not in your direct contacts |
|
[2011-10-27] A Google User: Didn't find it any better than the Linkedin app. Am giving that one a go again. Might be back, we'll se... |
|
[2011-10-19] A Google User: Smokin' Much better layout than the actual Linked-In app. Very nice. |
|
[2011-10-13] A Google User: Problem with contact sync File formate is the issue ..its vcm file Plz solve this problem app is better then linkedin it self |
|
[2011-10-11] A Google User: Nice app... but contact sync doesn't work which is main feature for me. |
|
[2011-10-09] A Google User: Its 642k, vs. the developed by LinkedIn version that is 2.12M .... nearly 4x the size, for what? |
|
[2011-10-09] A Google User: Stupid app, can't log out of it. Desire s. |
|
[2011-10-08] A Google User: Ckane No problems here. Works great. |
|
[2011-09-28] A Google User: Force close most of the time |

|
[2011-09-18] A Google User: Buggy! Searches for contacts causes Html bug and the listing of a contact's contacts causes repeat names. |
