AContact(Advanced contact manager) small, pluggable, themable - you can't miss this

If you are looking for something different, then this is it. AContact is different from most of the contact managers in the market, with tons of features, to list a few:
* Pluggable, which means the app is small (less than 700k) and fast. You only install the components you need.
* Innovative way of two columns contact display, can list more than 30 contacts in our 480*854 test phone.
* Swipable screens, saves you the trouble to reach tabs in order to swich functions, saves you the trouble to click tabs
* T9 keyboard with integrated call logs
* Fully customizable - themes, text sizes, layouts, call log display options, etc..
And many other plugins like groups manager, enhanced call statistics/managers, favorite contact etc..
Try it out.
Note: You can download from android market, by search "movesti" as keyword. We strongly suggest that you do this. That way you can awlays catch the latest update/bug fixes.
Also, attached are the main app and plugins.

Its awesome. Well done man. One thing. I would like to link directly to contacts... How to do that?

that's something i'd like to have too. You can make a shortcut to any of the plugins, but you can't have seperate shortcuts to both dialer and contacts (only to your default screen). Unless i'm missing some option...
edit: otherwise a really great app!

I absolutely love this . It's very fast and looks slick and beautiful. Very impressed. Took me a second or two to work out how to move to the contact list though. That's probably my failing rather than the apps though :S.

Hi,
Looks great, fast. I like it.
Suggestions:
-search contacts
-hidable keyboard in contact list
-contact details/edit takes me to original "edit/details app"
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

Great App, love it so far!
Some suggestions though:
- In T9 Dialer, make all characters searchable, e.g. make pressing '3' also search for è or é, I'm currently having issues searching for names like René
- In Contacts, it would be nice to have a second line for each contact, displaying group, or default number etc. (should be optional)

You could add a shourtcut to the specific activities:
--> ContactList(com.movesti.android.app.quickcontact.activity.ContactListActivity) to directly go to Contacts
--> Dialer(com.movesti.android.app.quickcontact.activity.DialerActivity) to directly go to Dialer

thanks, that's a nice workaround (not perfect, as you can't swype into the dialer or the other options when you open it over the activity. nontheless an improvement though)
I'd also like the implementation of your suggestions. The umlaut's a *****

this is awesome, thanks

That is just great. I only whish it was able to search for special chars such čř etc...

Really like this app! Especially how fast it is. The favorites add-on is also very cool.

[BETA] Meta Widget - create widgets from any web content

META WIDGET
Meta is a unique app that can turn virtually any online content into dynamic, interactive widgets.
Simply browse to a website, pick a column of text, link or image and enjoy this information right on your home screen!
Why is this cool you ask? Because almost anything can be parsed out of a website - images, blogrolls, RSS feeds or entire windows.
Any widget created through Meta can be customized and automatically updated, or updated on user interaction.
Features
★ Create widgets from almost any website element
★ Parse graphs and images
★ Extract statistics and information from authorized sites
★ Configure widgets (background, alignment, etc.)
★ Automatic updates
★ User defined click actions
★ Lots of other cool stuff
Status
The app is currently quite stable, but we still prefer to call it a beta. So please, do write to us with suggestions or bug reports!
Play Store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.metawidget
The free app has everything but automatic updates.
Screens

I would appreciate some feedback please!

1.0.2.1
Fixed keyboard issue present on some phones

Fixed a few device-specific issues from user feedback

Hi guys - please give me some feedback on the latest release!

Installing this now, will give feedback after 2-3 days

Thank you, i look forward to it. The more feedback, the better the app. Imagine - a developer that actually listens to consumers!

1.0.2.2
Fixed alignment issue on text and lists
Fixed sort order issue in list view
Added divider visibility toggle
Optimized custom browser rendering
Minor UI changes to increase compatibility

Good job !!
Hey,
I had this (huge, at least for me review written, then at the end hit backspace and freakin firefox took me a page back. WTF Firefox, I could kill you for that.
Anyway, so here is the short version:
Love your amazing design, with one exception of the settings menu (where you can choose the titel and all that)
I could not quite work out the difference between the up-down arrows and the left-right arrows
I did not understand the option to display as a list. I just didn't understand what it does
The text size didn't always work properly, sometimes when I would choose a bigger text size, it would actually be smaller
Everytime I had the widget done, I always had to manually resize it, but I guess that was because of sense
The widget itself was always just one big text and not nicely organized the news thread on the webpage, so the widget itself was kind of useless to me
One more tip; if you had chosen more than one element (e.g. an entire news thread), that it then should just open the single element, not the entire website with all the elements
Again great work guys!
The two websites I tried it with:
apktops
manga-access

Not sure what your problem with the menu is... its just like any other android menu.
Regarding the arrows - they will work better or borse, it all depends on the content.
"Use all as list" - this will use all the items listed below in list form, instead of just the element you clicked on.
Havent seen any problems with text size from anyone else, so most likely user error there, or some sort of parsing issue on the sites themselves.
We will make a bunch of sizes in the next release.
Lol.
Not going to happen.

Anything to report?

Hi!
I installed the app from Play Store but I don't find the Widget or the App.
What am I doing wrong?

Don't feed the idiots
Been using Meta Widget to display headlines from sites for a while. Not much to complain because it does what I want it to do. Only thing I would like toe see is the option to make the widget title bold or underlined.
Great app!

It shall be done. There will also be a minor release in preparation for the widget constructor we will release next week.

Guys, please rate the app on the market, that will help a lot!

[App] Write - a word processor for handwriting

Write is a word processor for handwriting, available for Android 3.0 and later and Windows tablet PCs. Write is similar to other Android notetaking applications but provides a unique set of tools which ease the editing of handwritten text by grouping strokes into lines, much like typed text in a word processor.
Write supports the S-Pen, although Samsung reserves the pen button for system-wide gestures.
Free on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.styluslabs.write
Features:
* tools: draw, erase, select, insert space, and add bookmark
* move strokes and insert space in multiples of the page's ruling
* reflow handwritten text with the insert space tool
* insert bookmarks and label them with handwriting
* cut, copy, paste selection
* unlimited undo/redo jog dial
* pan/zoom with two fingers
* customize and save pens
* user defined page size, color, and ruling
* pages can grow automatically as you write
* split screen with web browser to take notes from web pages or videos
* html/svg document format viewable in any modern web browser
* export or send document as single html file or all documents as zip file
* view thumbnails as a grid or list; drag and drop to change list order
Comments, bug reports, and feature requests can be posted to this thread; I look forward to hearing your thoughts!
-- Matt

I like this app so far. I only tested it for a few mins. I will give it the full court press for a week or so and report back.
right off the bat I like the add space function.

This program is tiny but powerful to write down somethings as its name. Consider about the saved files to exchange in other non-glaxay-note tablet or phones, even on computers, at least it's very easy to share the notes.
For me, some points to wish to add and I'll say it's perfect.
One thing is about bar buttons, add the function on the icon click to move certain lines and press to move to next page.
Second is, how about use different color on every 10th line, or add a small number at every 10th line? It well be helpful for user to identify the position of the note easily.
The last thing is the sync function, although I use dropsync to do this job. But still a build-in sync is a welcoming function.
Thank you for your hard work to make note-taking as easy as on paper!

I've tried it.
Main thing is that, if I'm not wrong, there's no pen pressure sensitivity.
Otherwise it could be very interesting.

I like some features of this app, like most of them, I wish they would all get together to make a super writing app. The zoom and pan with this app has been a big issue for me, I can not rest my hand on the tablet to write without it going crazy, I have switched through all the options for imput types, and when I remove all touch, there is no way to move the screen to write stuff, only go down to next page and this is difficult to write and reference things previously written down.
I do like the add space option and how it exports to .html for access on everything. There is also a nice select feature with the app. This could be very nice if they got with lecture notes and samsung to get the kinks worked out. Also my writing is a bit jagged here.

Not bad, has some decent features. I think Papryus is better overall though

Love this app! The ability to insert lines/words etc.that's great!!
I have the same issue - S Pent button will not delete after setting it to erase.
I also can figure out how to get different default templates (other than changing the color of paper and ruler)
To the developer - keep up the great work!!

Unfortunately, the s-pen button doesn't work. Because Samsung uses the button for global gestures (like double tap to open s-note), the events never reach Write. The page size and ruling can be set from the Page Setup dialog and the "Make default" checkbox will make the entered values the global default. For example, to get graph paper, set the X Ruling value equal to Y Ruling. A future update will provide some predefined page templates.

In the current version, it looks like there is a bug that could cause this to happen when adding a page to an existing document. This will be fixed in the upcoming version. In the meantime, it should work to set the default for each document.

Amazing app. I've been dealing with it for some days and it really works. S Note doesn't hold the candle to it when it comes to handwriting. S Note may have other handy features, but when I've got to write with it, it takes time and it often does my head in.
Write makes your handwritten page tidyd and clear, you can read your document with any other app and it's fast and smart - Samsung should learn to develop smarter applications like this.
Enjoy it.
Cheers!

Yes, the Windows version is available here: http://www.styluslabs.com/writebeta/ If you have a stylus, you'll need to install the Wacom drivers for it to work properly. The response to touch input can be configured in the preferences dialog. I don't have a Windows device with touch input for testing, so please let me know if there are any problems with touch.
Both Android and Windows versions have just been updated to add a bunch of features including continuous scrolling, lasso select, resizing selections, PDF export, and improved page setup.

Great alternative to S-Note!

As I was looking for more info on floating apps, I saw this from AndroidPolice which might be useful for your project:
'StandOut' Is An Open Source Library That App Developers Can Use To Build Floating Apps
For those interested, there is a floating note taker out there... not as great as as Write, but just for comparison, here it is.

Simply the best app . Really tks for share us for free!

[APP][2.1+] Appsi sidebar, a plugin supported sidebar application

September 13th
Today I released Appsi 1.5. This release includes the following new features:
1. A new (100% free and a part of Appsi itself) page in the sidebar with support for
- App widgets in the sidebar
- Home plugins (Appsi specific plugins, more below)
- DashClock extensions
2. Full freedom in placing the hotspots and the amount of them.
3. Fast scrolling support
4. More cutomizations and look & feel options
5. Music player controls (with special thanks to xda member Dr.Alexander_Breen for his excellent guide)
.. And a lot more.
September 4th (beta 1.4.21):
It's been a while and I think it is time to give you all a little update on what's going on behind the scenes in beta. I am working on fixing the issues that are left and hope to release the upcoming version as Appsi 1.5 soon.
I have got tons of new cool features coming up. To name a few:
1. A new (100% free and a part of Appsi itself) page in the sidebar with support for
- App widgets in the sidebar
- Home plugins (Appsi specific plugins, more below)
- DashClock extensions
2. Full freedom in placing the hotspots and the amount of them.
3. Fast scrolling support
4. More cutomizations and look & feel options
5. Music player controls (with special thanks to xda member Dr.Alexander_Breen for his excellent guide)
.. And a lot more.
The Home Plugins are small extensions to the home tab/plugin. The are small plugins you can add to the home tab in Appsi. They can be used to show things like, missed calls count, launching certain intents and a lot more. There is an open source sample project with docs on Github. And there's some instructions right here.
If you are looking for screenshots, take a look in the G+ beta community.
July 30th: Version 1.4 released
Last weekend I updated Appsi to version 1.4
New features:
1. Customize the size of the text and icons
2. Change the spacing between the items
3. Global search
4. New icon
July 15th: Version 1.3.3 in beta.
Very small amount of changes for this beta. Moving to production on 18th if no issues arise.
1. Option to minimize the notification. (no icon and smallest possible notification, no extra actions etc)
2. Bug fix for android 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 devices, causing crashed with hardware acceleration enabled.
3. Fix issue with long texts on items in the sidebar when there is a title and a description. The title will now also have ellipsis.
July 13th: Version 1.3 released.
Today I moved version 1.3 from beta to production. The following changes are probably going to make 1.4:
Improved search: Search through all apps, even if the section is disabled. If you have plugins, search will include all results from all plugins.
Live folder support in Appsi (add a live folder as if it is a plugin)
If you have a suggestion, just let me know.
Also I will add new translations once they have been completed. This is just a matter of time. If you would like to help out, pm me.
July 6th: Version 1.3 beta released.
I just finished uploading the new beta version of Appsi to Google play. This new version contains the following new features:
Proper favorites manager
Contextual action bar to perform actions on long press.
Switch plugins by swiping left or right on the sidebar
Updates to all plugins for the contextual actions
Fixes:
Fixed a bug in the icon caching mechanism
This is a beta release, so for now only accessible for beta testers (wanna be a beta tester? let me know). This version will most likely move to production within one week.
July 1st: version 1.2.4 was released
Although it may not sound like a big update, This version adds support for the following new features:
* transparency in the sidebar
* the ability to choose a background image for the sidebar
* Choice between light and dark theme
* Improved the way to get the data from the plugins.
* Improved user experience, especially for new users.
Special thanks go out to all the people helping with translations and beta testing. Thank you very much!
See https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appsimobile.appsi for the Google play listing.
Appsi sidebar is a sidebar application for android. It comes with an embedded App plugin (more about that later) that allows you to see all your apps and add your favorite 5 apps as favorites.
It supports 3 distinct gestures when opening the sidebar, by default they will all open the sidebar normally. The gestures are moving horizontally after touching the hotspot, moving up or moving down. For each of these you can set the action to perform, these actions are:
- open the sidebar (default)
- open favorites swiper
- open recents swiper (needs plugins with recents)
- open plugin swiper (swipe to the plugin you'd like to open and then open the sidebar)
The swiper is the same as what you might know from other apps (like swipepad), it allows you to open something with one single touch, by moving your finger from the sidebar to the item.
The hotpot is either on the left or right side of the screen, it can be positioned manually and can be as big as you want.
Thanks to the wonderful people on this forum Russian translations have been added in the latest version. Also simplified Chinese has been added. I'd like to know what you all think about this app
Appsi is plugin based (and supported). This means it allows you to buy plugins to extend the functionality. This is not needed for normal operation, but it will add more types of things you can add as a sidebar.
You can either add a hotspot for each plugin, or use one hotspot for all plugins. The opened plugin can be changed by tapping the title of the sidebar.
If anyone has suggestions or improvement, either for plugins or Appsi itself, please let me know.
Download link for Appsi 1.5:
Appsi 1.5 release

Hello everybody,
If there are people out here that would like to test the app and provide feedback that would be great. I am open to suggestions and have a list of upcoming features. One of the features I just released as beta is the ability to change the alpha and to set a background for the sidebar. And the ability to be always up to date with the plugins (no need to load the data when the sidebar opens)
So if you'd like to do beta testing, send me your Google account (e-mail address) and I'll add you to the testers list.
If you do not want to test the beta version but would prefer to test the current version, that will also help very much.
Any feedback will help.
Thank you all!

If I'm right, this sidebar uses a service as "sidebar", doesn't it?
All other apps I've seen start up an activity if you touch the gesture area. If you press the home button and try to launch an activity from the gesture area, it has a 5 second delay.
So that's a really good thing.
Overall UI looks pretty good, which makes the users first thoughts about the app very positive.
ActionBar in the sidebar is awesome and usefull.
Logo isn't the best I've seen, you could improve that.
This is my opinion 4 seconds after installation.
Edit: search bar is very usefull

I will try it ASAP and report.
I tried a lot already.... almost all to be honest, and i stick right now to a cryptic one but which really work well. Can be used for inspiration, so here it is (and i am not advertsing, ok. It is just for reference as this one is relly unknown) : overlay launcher.
Gonna install your app and report from my of course subjective point of view.
Cheers

Really like it thus far! Would it be possible to make it easier to switch between plug ins, I.e, when the sidebar is open instead of going to the top to switch plug ins, maybe you can swipe left and right within in the sidebar to switch between plug ins. It will make it a lot easier to use instead of going to the top.

It is mandatory to add an option to dismiss notification from the notification panel... It's way too big, and it is very annoying for me!
App works really well indeed, and I'm looking forward to try a couple of plugins!
Keep up the good work mate!

Thanks! Yes I know I'll ask try to find someone to do some icon design later on. Will become better. I am focusing on improving the usability right now and other performance improvements. They are all in beta now, and if no more issues are found in these versions, I'll be putting this beta to production.

Thanks, the problem with this is running as a service. Android will kill the app if it needs resources. I have tested it and it will kill it quite often and restart it within a few moments. I can add an option (a discouraged one) to disable running as a foreground service. I can also suggest the user to disable notifications for the app if running on jelly bean, and take them there. Another thought was the ability to set a 100% transparent icon so that it does not show up in the notification bar.
The upcoming version (current beta) adds the following features:
custom backgrounds on the sidebar
light and dark theme (dark theme is the current theme, light is like holo light)
better synchronization between appsi and the plugins. (less data loading needed and better user experience)
Improved getting started experience (visible hotspots until the user disables it and an arrow showing how to open the sidebar once the hotspot is touched)
For the next version (after the current beta), I will add the following features for sure:
Favorites manager: Manage the favorites in a proper way and allow for an unlimited amount of favorites.
Navigating between plugins with a simple swipe.
and possibly:
integration with live folders
widgets plugin (already working on this)
Thank you all, and if you have any more ideas or suggestions, please let me know!

May I add something to this already rich and awesome list?
I would REALLY REALLY LIKE to have the possibility to add shortcuts to the apps plugin (as I can do on the launcher screen, for example). That would be really helpful!!
...Maybe also an option to change app icons and names, and a way to hide the "X" for apps removal (which I find quite ugly, this function might be moved to a separate and specific menu to add/remove things maybe?) ?
you may also think about offering an "all plugins package" at a discounted price, rather than having to buy all plugins separately (which, btw, makes the sum of all prices quite high). So that the user can choose if selectively buy the only one or two plugins he needs at their actual price, or directly going for the full thing.. I hope it's clear what I mean!
Cheers and keep up the good work!!
Should you need some beta testers... You know where to look

Yes, the favorites manager will at first be used to replace the current way of adding and removing the favorites. But later on it will also be improved to allow changing names and icons. Also I am planning to do something with icon themes, I still need to determine how and what, but a new theming format is not what I am aiming for (we are talking several releases in the future now)
Shortcuts is definitely on the list of to-dos for the apps plugin. I can't say yet when it will be added but it is something that will definitely be there in the future.
Well beta testers are always very welcome. The XDA Android app testers community is a good starting point, https://plus.google.com/communities/100406373096097711894 . If you join this group and opt-in for beta testing at https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.appsimobile.appsi you'll be able to get the beta version. I still need to add this community to the plugins, I will update my original post with the details when it is done.

Appsi sidebar is well beyond 1000 downloads from play store! Yay!
I really recommend this app guys, try it out and you'll see that it is even more comfortable to use than it looks!

Really like it thus far! Would it be possible to make it easier to switch between plug ins, I.e, when the sidebar is open instead of going to the top to switch plug ins, maybe you can swipe left and right within in the sidebar to switch between plug ins. It will make it a lot easier to use instead of going to the top.

This feature is included in the beta that was released today. I loved it from the moment it worked. Very good suggestion

Today the beta was moved to production. See the original post at the start of the thread for the changes

Very cool app and working great so far.

New Beta release, for all of you who want the notification icon gone, it is in beta now!

I'm joining this too.
Gonna try out.
Keep the good work.

New version released, 1.4 see original post for details

Newest version is great!! An awesome improvement, really!! Appsi is becoming more and more polished and feature rich, while staying lightning fast. Can't think of anything better!!
Now we only need some more theming options, like changing icons (as we do on launchers like nova, apex...)
Cheers and keep up the good work!!

Appsi crashing
Firstly, after 24 hours of using Appsi, I have to say that Appsi has become one of my favourite apps. It is well done and provides needed functionality.
However, from time to time Appsi freezes and the only way to get the sidebar back is to force close the app from the application manager and then restart the app.
I'm using CM 10.1 (Android 4.2.1) on Samsung S3.
Any idea why this is happening?
Cheers,
Eran

Never ever had a freeze or FC on Alliance Rom.. Maybe the problem you have is only tied to aosp roms and not stock or derivative ones?

LOVE it smooth ! Thanks.

review from wife of this app loves the menstrual integration.Would like to see events as a real time at a glance view instead of just a dot.Ability to merge multiple events as this show the same birthday 4 times on one day.Too similar to all other calendar apps for now but a great start!

Just have to say...WOW!
My only issue is that I can't seem to locate my city and when I type it in search...nothing comes up

Looks very good, smooth animation, I recorder or reminder some things, but I think can use the snapshot into the snippet should be better!:fingers-crossed:

Awesome and good-looking calendar apps, my girl said she can say good to womanlog now.

Alright so I am running Samsung Galaxy S4, 4.3 Firmware.
The location, for me, simply does not work. I tried berkeley, san leandro, oakland, there is simply no search result no matter what I put in. Also when I press on location, it simply fails....I think it may be an issue with the app but I am not sure, why my device and firmware is listed above. But the weather by it self does work as I choose a random city listed (by the app) and it does work.
Also, is it possible to remove the icon from the status bar and keep the app with in the notification drawer? I have looked in the setting, but cannot locate this...it will be really great if you can! I keep mistaking it for my battery read lol.
If the cycle calender (blush face here lmao) is it possible to make it known what the color coding is? I am 100% sure of what one of them is, 60% sure of the other...and no idea what is the last one. I have look in the app for the clarity but no luck....which I want to add THANK YOU for adding that in there, that is one less app I will have to deal with .
I think giving the option to order the different calenders will be nice. If this is already possible please guide me...as I can't seem to figure it out. It gives option to delete but I do not want to test that as I do not want to loose the cycle calender.
Other than those minor issues, i still love it and will use it regardless. But if developers can take user feedback to account, even better and will recommend out. Got two of my lady friends to download already And one of my co-workers.

Any widget from this app?

Since I dont plan on having a period any time soon, is it possible to switch off that feature?

I really liked this app.
Here's my review:
http://droidhorizon.com/zdcal-review/

Loved this app as soon as I loaded it will probably never go back to stock calendar, option to hide from status bar was hard to find but just click the 3 line button in top left corner then hit settings and you get all different settings

An option to disable festivals entirely would be great. Other then that, i love the app.

Celsius/Fahrenheit
Any way to add a setting to change between Celsius and Fahrenheit for the weather? Us Americans don't know temps in C.
