My Experience with SCN Mobile App ‘Jive’
I am not sure how many of you are using mobile based SCN app. Its called ‘Jive’. Few days back i installed this app at my android phone and believe me i am just loving it.
There is already document available at SCN explaining about from where to download this app, which OS supports it, how to register etc.
check below links for more details:
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-42262
When you launch this App, it would look like this. This screen itself attracted me because of its beautiful background color.
Then, You are required to enter community URL: http://sap-scn.jive-mobile.com/
NOTE: This link can be easily opened in mobile browsers.
You need to enter the activation code that you have received after registering your device at your profile page>Edit preferences>Mobile (for more details view the above mentioned document link) once you click on Log in button.
Here you go. This is home screen of the app. It is so beautiful.
You will get notifications from the group/people you are following to.
You can see the device authorization status of the device registered by viewing profile page.
What i am missing here are: Points, missions, badge and few more details.
So folks have you tried it? Looking forward to hear your views.
One more important point is that it get the notifications to the device from the groups we are following. As JK mentioned its really a good app for those who want to follow the updates on the move.

Hi JK
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Sumeet Shahapeti 🙂
It's a great app and I use it daily. It's very practical for staying connected while on the go: at SAP TechEd, for example.
There's also a handy send button so that I can forward the URL to colleagues or myself if something needs to be followed up on.
Yes, it would be nice to have the reputation program integrated but at least the app offers increased opportunities for members to be the first to reply correctly to a thread. 😉
Hi,
Very useful application Jeethu. Good to know . so then we won't miss SCN wherever we go. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks
nice app been using for a very long time, but only problem is screen loading takes some time may be due to connectivity , apart from that everything works smooth.
Also I have noticed that the data usage is very high when compared to other apps.
Yes because it loads the screens like the browsers so obviously the data usage is high..!!!
It's not only because of that actually. Even you are not running the app you can see the data used by the app is higher, its because of the background process of the app. It seems like background process is higher than the foreground.
Oh really.. i didnt know that..!!
Thanks for the info.
😉
HiJitendra Kansal,

Hi Jitendra,
I had already tried this app months ago.
As Midhun VP mentioned, this app is good when we want to get updates and notifications on the move.
Except that i don't like any thing about this app, first thing limited functionality as already mentioned
The thing that I hate the most is even afterr pressing Back button the app does not exit and I have to click Home button to exit the app( just shows it was directly ported from IOS and does not use Android functionality)
I prefer to open full Desktop Site on my Chrome or Dolphin Browser and can do everything thats possible on my laptop 🙂

Vivek
Hi Vivek,
thanks for sharing your views.
also.. when your at 2G network, it takes much time to load.

Jitendra
+1 Vivek.
And I miss the "report abuse" button. The rating stars & review for blog post too. And you cannot share via LinkedIn or Twitter either.
Still, it's a nice application for reading blog posts and being notified when new stuff is out. But I'm really missing some cool features to use it more often.
Regards,
Nick.
Thanks! Just what I was looking for!
Kind regards,
Wouter

I have installed Jive Application on Samsung Android Phone When I give URL in Jive Application. It
requested to enter Jive URL I entered http://sap-scn.jive-mobile.com/ in Jive Application to connect
but couldnt able to connect It is showing a pop up message to enter correct URL.
The same URL I have used in browser It is connected with activation code.
How can I get connected through Jive
There are two ways to connect: app and browser. However, you have to authorize your account for mobile access. Please read through Mobile Browsing Using SCN Mobile Apps: iOS, Android, Blackberry
If you have more questions, please post a new discussion thread in SCN Support
SCN should come up with direct installation of android application on phone . Rather than installing Jive to give activation code. The procedure seems to be uncertain A member who is having already an account in SCN Member need to install jive to get connected. That is something different from other android applications
I dont see an Icon on phone to connect directly Everytime I have to use browser to get connected
To receive notification we have to install Jive we can also get email notification through gmail .
As said byVivek Singh Bho There is limited functionality Yes I agree.
If i want to use SCN on my Phone I have to use Browser to get connected I believe its not an android application. It is just a browser but not android application.
What is the url for SAP SCN Community using JIVE application in android.
http://sap-scn.jive-mobile.com is not working could not able to connect It is showing a pop up message to enter correct URL.
How can I get connected through Jive
