New message from Nokia: they are doing their best, bla bla bla. Seems to be a huge technical challenge for them to make a download work. Anyway, a new release will be ready soon, it will hopefully bring more luck :)

Update (2013.04.13): new release (1.1.1) has been submitted to the app store

I brought this app today but I get the download error also, I can't even download it to my PC.

I noticed that the version in the app store hasn't been updated to version 1.1.1 yet.

1.1.1 has been submitted but it may take 1 to 5 days to be validated by QA and be available on the store.

Has Nokia sorted out the download problem yet?

Same with me. I'm still waiting to download SunCalc Premium which I've paid for but cannot download. I'm not going to be caught again.

It's there anything that keeps the developer from making this app available via sure kind of direct method? Send payment to developer via PayPal, user gets app? Not permanent solution, but I've that could help with getting feedback and such till it hits official channels.

Just a thought.

Problem is that someone would probably leak the deb package into the wild. Ofcourse this is possible from the store also as it doesn't need much technical knowledge to copy the package while it's being installed, but I can understand why a developer wouldn't want to release a proprietary software package outside the store.

After 1 week (!) of testing, Nokia's QA rejected the 1.1.1 release, because:
- the application "must" include a Privacy Policy, although it actually does not collect any Personal Data!
- "the application does not prompt (active consent) the user for permission to use Location Data and should include an 'OPT-OUT' feature that disables the use of Location Data". In other words, I should add an option for users to disable GPS in my GPS tracking application!

The funny thing: 1.1.1 changes are absolutely not related to the QA complaints. In the meanwhile, after 1 month, they still did not manage to solve the download issue. I am now convinced that Nokia is making a joke...

Or that they have a deal with Sports Tracker...
