Now the android app has the user configurable refresh timer and it is ready for download here:

Please read this warning before turn on auto refresh!!! Android app is different from web browser. In web browser, we use a technique that only update the fields that changing, so that display does not look jumpy. In Android app, each time refresh timer reached, it will read all values from board and redraw everything on the android device (phone/pad), depends on the device CPU and memory, it WILL take a lot more CPU time and looks not as smooth as browser. That is why we set auto refresh default to OFF and 30 seconds. Once you turn that ON, please reduce the timer Slowly, so that you will have chance to go back change the value to a longer interval.
In case you changed timer to a too short interval, your android device CPU will fight between process data read back from the board and displaying them, that can have black screen in between. If you ever get to that stage, the only choice is to uninstall the app, and reinstall it again. In that way, you will have default value restored.
