Marvin's reading location info is stored in Dropbox with an easy-to-understand XML format. Any app that is able to read files from Dropbox should be able to read and handle them (note: I'm modifying the format to improve location sync accuracy soon).

Is it just me or is the location sync far less accurate using the universal version? Most of the time it is not even close anymore.

@ldrover - Location sync hasn't changed at all in the transition to Universal. However, I'm aware of it's accuracy issues and I'm working on them.

I'm really sorry, but I understand, that iPhone is easier to buy than to find a program for android that reads XML files from Marvin's reading location. I did my best, but I failed. Would you say me some names of these programms? (xaim@mail.ru in case to avoid of anti advertising)
