I'm already doing a private style beta with some friends. Thanks anyway.

Is there going to be a widget for this too? One that will show how many notifications are waiting for my response?

Maybe, but certainly not in the first version. I need to figure out a way where a widget would work.

Version 1.0 has been released onto Android Market!

V1.0.1 Released

v1.0.2 has been released onto the Android Market. I've also dropped the price to £0.59. Give it a try!

Still waiting for the 1x1 widget that displays the number of notification before I jump on this.

Goodie! I've been filling up my phone with paid apps!

This works pretty well, just waiting for some enhancements!

Great app!
Got a request:
I would love to have b/w or grayscale notification graphics to choose instead of coloured ones, would go much better with my theme.
Keep up the good work!

Just to let you all know. f+ has now hit v2.0.8.4, check it out!

I agree. A trial version of sorts would be nice, along with a place to find an updated changelog. Your website and AppBrain don't show everything.

I use the blog as a changelog for simplicity: http://christopherbanes.wordpress.com/category/blue-notify/
A trial is something I hadn't thought of before and is something I'll look into.

Wow this is freaking awesome. if this is java, will it work on like your windows mobile too? then you can support 2 formats at once?
Another small question. Slacker will become on-demand soon. Will you take a dive into there app side and compete and see if you can do the same as you do here with Grooveshark? I never seen anyone make a Slacker app. What id give is for a Windows Mobile one that actually works that shows the whole screen.

SciLor! Oh man when I saw your post I was so stoked. Welcome to Android development Any chance of a DL'er as in WM?

WM and Android needs to be seperated java on wm isn't as nice and on android "java" isn't java.
I will check slacker once a while but first of all I will focus on the dircection I am currently diving.

The "official" Grooveshark app requires you to be a "VIP" member to use it, whereas scilor's app does not .

It is free and may have different features.

Any news on an updated release?

Maybe that guy is referring to the fact that grooveshark frowns upon 3rd praty apps so you might as well just get a hacked official app if you are gonna get something frowned upon. That being said,
This is freaking exciting. The only reason I hesitated moving from winmo to android was because of scilors apps. For now I have a vip membership but i will definitely be keeping a test version of this on my phone as well. I wish I had a spare android device to send him.

Thank you for the "device" , but I managed to get Android working on my HD2.
Which Apps are you exactly missing on Android?

Looking at your list grooveshark dler would be nice.

I'm definitely looking forward to a downloader on Android. Keep up the good work!

definitely the downloader and at the time i didn't have vip access so I thought i was gonna have to go grooveshark-less. I lived on the 2 groovemobile apps when i had winmo.

I check the TOOLband.com website, and couldn't find Rss or Atom feeds? Are you sure you there are Rss/Atom feed for TOOLband.com? If so, make sure you provide the exact link to AppYet.com when you create/update application.

very slick, and nice widgets as well...
Does $49 give you one app, or the ability to create many?

I just created an app for my blog, This is just awesome guys, Good JOB!!

toolband does not have RSS but there are ways to make any site RSS compatible, the process is just very tedious. Wish i had a TOOLarmy app.

Wonder if this will work for my blogspot blog or my djing website.

Just got it setup for a freelance website that I use. Gotta say this is nice. Now I will make an icon to go with my app. I think that maybe a share and share alike on the forum would play nice. lol. I dont mind sharing what I create.

Got it figured out. Got one quirk to figure out - Was wondering if embedded YouTube videos works on the app? My blog works in terms of the RSS feeds and such, but it has videos too. If anyone can help me re this, let me know.
As for my DJing website, its www.podomatic.com.

Thanks for the heads up/info. Now I got two more questions:
(1) For the membership being around $40, is it for a month or year?
(2) On my djing website (podomatic), can it play/download the mp3? Its djemzine.podomatic.com by the way if you want to take a look at it (based on your time) and see if something can be done.
Cheers

(1) It is for life-time, with free upgrade and bug fixes. Let's say, in the future we added support for mutilingual and support Youtube, you will able to have choice to upgrade to latest version without additional charge
(2) base on the link you provided, i found the Rss for the site: http://djemzine.podomatic.com/rss2.xml
You will able to play the podcast online, right now it doesn't support podcast playback offline, but we will consider to add this feature in the future

group link http://groups.google.com/group/wikipedia-for-android
and other who like this app , please join us welcome

Dark Theme feature coming soon~~

Good app, my wants/suggestions.
-provide a "near me" option to search wikipedia pages near my current location. Love this function when traveling.
-Queue mode. Maybe long press of a link within an article adds to your reading list. Or maybe long press opens article in new tab. This is useful when reading pages and coming across articles you want to read later, but allows you to continue reading current article without having to navigate to the new article.
-save offline pages to sdcard.
As far as I know none of the wikipedia apps have all of these features. It would be nice to get down to one Wiki app on my phone. Thanks for the great app!

[APP][2.1+]Cool Facts Free

Well, this is my first ever attempt on google android app development. I just wanted to share it here. Let me hear your comments, critics, feedbacks etc.
I know there is a lot of room for improvement in this app.
Google Play Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coolfacts.app
About the app:

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
​All the facts in this app are funny, cool, informative, real and verifiable. The app comes with regular in-app updates from our facebook page, official website & twitter account whenever there is an update. So there is no end to the facts. Almost every day you will get new facts unlike many other cool facts apps. Also all of these facts are true as we are a team of people who care about the quality of our work. Most of the facts will be verifiable using wikipedia and other trusty websites like Nat Geo, Discovery etc.
Features:
Swipe Left or Right for next or previous facts.
Random Fact & Latest Fact Buttons.
Twitter sharing button. Amaze your followers with awesome cool facts.
Links to our Facebook, Google Plus & Twitter pages and to the official website.
A never ending list of cool facts.
This is the official http://www.coolfacts.in Android app. We're very happy to announce this app for all our android fans.

No feedbacks?

App seems nice. It could be interesting to have a widget instead of opening app and I don't like when then text couldn't fit the page that you link to the site to read the rest of the news.

So I think it should have a scrollable text view for the facts so that I don't have to link to the website?
A widget for "your daily fact" is an awesome idea, thanks for that!

Yes I was meaning that

The idea is pretty good, a widget would make it great !
Even more with the new DayDram mode on Android 4.2 you could have your facts randomly displayed when the devices are docked or charging.
Could be fun.

Done that and updated the app. I will try to come up with a widget options soon!
Thanks for the suggestion!

Can any one please download it and try it out. I am sorry I had to ask this, there has been some issues after the latest update. It would be greatly appreciated if you can check it opens on your mobile.
I just wanted to know whether this is happening for new installations!

This is the video promo I created for this app. Hope you guys like it!

What do you think about the new updates and the cool facts I have added to the app?

Somebody please help me and give me more ideas!

Did a UI improvement, let me know your thoughts!

Nice work

Cool Facts App just ahad a major UI revamp and now supports a lot more compared to the previous version.
Some updated functionalities include:
* Report false facts
* Copy the fact to clipboard and use/share it wherever you want!
Hope you like it, let me know your suggestions!

Force closes when I press "copy to clipboard" but other than that, cool.
Personally, if I were you, I would add a possibility to hide all the buttons at the buttom of screen for users who wouldn't use them. Maybe make the text a bit smaller (it's bigger on my 2.3.7 Gingerbread than on your screenshots, though) and maybe make the text "justify aligned" (I'm a bit fan of "justify alignment", lol)... Just some tips to make the app look a bit more simplistic, maybe.

I think I can include a button to toggle the visibility of all the buttons! that would be okay right?
I think the clipboard function is making the error because of your older version. I think I will have to check the version on which the app is running and then decide whether or not to show the button!

Possibly.
Make a text size adjuster too, if you can .. and maybe center allign the text if "justify" is not possible in Androd (I dont think it is).
Just some tips

Added button to disable all the buttons!
Let me know how do you like the new update!

I like facts, so I like this app . It is also a bit addicting searching for new facts which are more or less useful to know .
