You mention your inspirations in the video. Do you collaborate with companies like Square and Uber at all?

We don't work directly with Square or Uber. Those are just a few of the companies that inspire some of our engineers.

Hi guys, congrats on your awesome progress...there is no mention of Android. Is that in the plans at any point?
