The service seems abandoned

I think it’s time to say goodbye to this service as there doesn’t seem to be any activity. Only a matter of time until it is removed from Google Play when the minimum API level increases.

Yes Stingle is alive and soon Android client will receive new updates. Also we are developing desktop client.

Thanks for the update! Since nobody has any actual complaints, this sounds good to me :+1: Marking this thread as rejected .

There haven’t been any updates yet till now…

I think we should take another look at removing Stingle as there hasn’t been any updates even when the developer promised to ship updates soon.
