Hi AstroBin community,

I would like to introduce my astro software project, AstroBasket. It's an AstroBin viewer application for Android. For now it supports basic functionality (IOTD, IOTD Yesterday, Top picks and Top pick nominations).
I plan to extend it by covering all public REST APIs provided by AstroBin website. I also plan to add my own extensions. If you like it and have some ideas for improve it or if you find a bug, please let me know. 

You can install it via offical Google Play store on link:

Thank you.

Hi, thanks,  I'll try it. It'd be way easier. I mean, my phone is practically glued to my hand anyway)))

Hi Luke, thanks. It offers base functionality for now. I plan to extend it (beyond what astrobin.com offers by their public REST API).

In the meantime this project has become minor project, but I was planning to add support for czsky.cz, connection with goto mounts (ascom/indi), and others.
