ProSpect

Post by nessauto »

With Michtell releasing Prospect at SEMA, Does anyone know what the cost will be. Maybe we'll hear soon but it would be great to see pricing and a video of it.

We previewed ProSpect at the 2018 AAPEX show a few days ago; it has a targeted release date of Nov 26th. We will be releasing a lot of information on this starting in a few days.

The initial version of ProSpect is iOS 12 or better (iPad / iPhone) initially with an Android version in the works by early 2019.

That would be because it was developed on iOS first and shown to us in that form; we also had been getting requests for Apple devices. We expect the Android version to become available after the holidays.

I understand that but that would be like releasing a new software in Linux while I would love it most people would look at you cross eyed. But thank you for the the eta for the android update can't wait for the release.

I'm not sure the term "most people" is 100% accurate. 1 billion iPhones have been sold and most people I hang around with owns one. :?:

This number does not include the iPad. Other than the Amazon Fire Tablet I never see android tablets being used.

You'll have to trust me there are many moving pieces involved; the Android version would not been ready for AAPEX/SEMA show 2 weeks ago, which is one of our biggest opportunities to premiere it to the industry. Companies like to have something shiny and new for such venues. :wink:

Okay I will go by 33% of the market share since android has 2 billion active users monthly and the last update from apple shows 1 billion active monthly users. So still think most would apply but loosely.

Without a doubt, I understand why just was hoping it would be ready on release. If you think about it most people who use the inspection software use bolt-on which is if I remember only android base.
