Why won't MJ Android app work with 3G?

Post by Txtimo »

My Apple iPad MJ app works fine with AT&T 3G connection, so why won't Android app on 3G phones work?

MJ specifically doesn't recommend apps' use over 3g, because 3g cellular data service in general is simply inadequate to consitently support voip. Consequently, MJ recommends that its apps be used only over Wi-Fi or 4g cellular data networks.

Having said that, it's been my experience that Apple's Wi-Fi and 3g hardware - especially within its iPad and iPod Touch products - seems to be far better than that contained in most other manufacturer's cellular products. Still, I'm surprised to hear that the app worked well for you on your iPad over 3g.
