Wow, first run of the app actually managed to make my phone reboot! Haven't seen anything like that before. Furthermore, I had no idea what I was doing or getting myself into when snapping a photo of myself and 'posting' it (after which the app crashed and my phone rebooted).

So this is the android-part of something that got 41 million in funding? Pretty interesting.

Same here. Well, the phone didn't actually crash, but the app definitely did. I got a "Activity Color (in application Color) is not responding"

Besides that, the interface is weird to say the least. It's got icons with no text so you have to guess what the buttons do - and I couldn't figure it out (but then again, my IQ is pretty low) - there's a man-with-glasses icon and a planet icon and then there's a clock icon.

Maybe it's very different when there are lots of people around using the app.

But then again, they just received their funding, so it will probably get much better soon.

Color just crashed on my iphone the first run.... let me launch Instagram

Thanks for the warning! Anyways, as apps are supposed to run sandboxed, an app shouldn't be able to crash the whole system. They might have found an Android bug there.

On my droid x it often is rebooted when I try and send mail with the gmail client.

its real bad development..you know the type when an Incubator posts a gig than asks the developer you can do this in 2 weeks right..
