Get Point is an application for professionals and amateurs who need to record coordinates in an aggregated manner and then study the results on Google Earth.
Get Point also lets you record an entire route by foot or by car to also evaluate the result in Google's desktop application.
Ideal for professionals such as surveyors and geographers while a field work, but can also be used for fun, to mark their places of travels or visits.
This is a work in progress and was developed in order to learn the Android platform and also bring the public a quality tool. Any suggestion is welcome. Please send comments by e-mail.
Features:
- Groups of coordinates. A group can be a trip, a specific job, etc.;
- Marking of points within a group of coordinated, allowing to name the point;
- Record a route, letting you set the interval between recordings of the points, also allowing to name the route recorded;
- Sending points (KML file and Google Maps link) or route records (KML file) by e-mail;
- Quickly view a recorded point on Maps without having to export to the desktop;
- Export all records in the group to a KML file to later be viewed on Google Earth;
- And more.

Any comments or suggestions are wellcome!
My cousin was looking for an app like this; he's an ecology grad student. I'll forward him the link.
I tried to download it and i get an error that say " missing a shared library "
So is this going to someday evolve into something similar to the remote tracker app for WinMo?
Yes, I'm trying. But Android is very restrictive and lot's of commands I can't write.
I finally started RemoteTracker for Android:

All the best,
Joubert
So I've been wanting to find something to help me organize my life through the use of my phone for quite a while and have always come up short, mostly because of the oh-so-limited search functionality of the Android market (even on sites like Androlib etc.). Part of the problem seems to be the set of features I want to be included in the app, or at least in interlocking apps (ie one can be opened from within the other and data from one is seamlessly shared to the other), which up until now I have yet to find. So I've come here hoping that our community of tinkerers has found something that might fit the bill. Here is a list of the features I need / want:
Need:
- Calendar integration with alerts, preferably with Google calendar
- Appointments with alerts
- Tasks with multiple levels and with alerts
- Contexts
- Checklists that can be recycled and which can have alerts attached to both the list and individual items
- Contacts integration
- Multi-platform integration (ie can sync with online service and with my desktop)
- Easy to use and easy to keep using (read: doesn't require an hour of my time each day to make sure everything is set for the next)
- Useful widgets
- No monthly fee
- 100% functional (minus sync of course) without a data connection so it can be used when in poor coverage areas or on a plane
Want:
- Much prefer a "Getting Things Done" (GTD) style application
- Location specific alerts (ie upon getting home, a reminder to take the trash out... and yes, I do need this sometimes )
- 100% free (I'm willing to pay for the app, though not a monthly service, but I prefer not to if I don't have to)
- Integration with Email, Text, Phone, and Contacts (ie ability to set a callback appointment from within contacts or us an incoming email to generate a task)
- Persistent alerts (read: I'm going to dismiss something important at some point and I want to be reminded of it again automatically)
Anyway, I know this is a hefty list of demands, but if any of you have suggestions that can actually fit some or all of these, I'd really love to hear them so I can give them a try. I've been looking for this for a while and just can't seem to find something I that fits enough of my important criteria to make it useful to me.
Thanks.
You can try the following :-
Any.Do (free) - A basic to do app without the location feature, it has alarms, different levels of priority and also syncs with your browser.
Remember The Milk (free) - though some features which you are looking for such as location based reminders come with the pro version, which requires a monthly fee that adds up to 25 USD a year and is a bit too expensive in my opinion.
Astrid To do (free) - You can get extra features such as location based based reminders and widgets for about 4 GBP total.
Hope I helped!
Thanks a lot, I'll have a look at those to see if they fit the bill. Do any of them have calendar integration?

As far as I'm aware, I think Astrid does. I've only ever used Astrid and Any.Do. But you should be able to see the feature list on the Play Store. If you're looking exclusively for calendar integration, I think you should check out Gtasks

I guess that's another one I'll have a look at, but the thing is that I'm looking for a daily planner, which is also a task manager so I can build to-do lists into my schedule, while also having a good schedule app, if that makes any sense. Kind of an all-in-one type of thing with as much versatility / features as can be packed in.

Then, in my opinion, your best bet would be Astrid with the paid locale add on.

I've spent the last few hours messing around with Astrid today (not the locale plug in though) and found that it lacks the ability to make a reoccuring checklist or at least subordinate lists (ie a task with a list of tasks contained within it) which is one of the most important features that I'm looking for. Unless I just haven't found the right way to do it, if I wanted to make a recurring checklist for cleaning the house, for example, I'd have to enter in each separate cleaning item as its own task which would be cumbersome and also would start filling up my inbox with old tasks pretty quickly if I decide to defer some items off a week or two.
I guess now the question is what would be your second recommendation, if any, while keeping in mind the need for checklists / subordinate tasks? Do any of the other apps like Doit.im, Shuffle, or DGT GTD (all of which have subordinate lists, but not checklists a la remember the milk, and all of which I've tried, but not been able to use successfully for one reason or another) have locale-type add-ons?
Thanks again

You talk about a requirement for a multi-level checklist, unless I'm mistaken, is it the same as the one in the first screenshot of Astrid's Google Play page? Doit.im, Shufle and DGT GTD do not seem to have location add ons, but I did come across another app which might interest you :- "2Do: To do List | Task List" It's for about 6.99 USD and it does seem to have all features EXCEPT location based notifications. My advice would be to fully explore/understand Astrid and then buy the add on if you're interested. I still think it has the necessary feature (sublists) , I am downloading the app and figuring out how to do the same, if I find a way, I'll post it here.
EDIT: To make subtasks, create the two seperate taks (for example let the main one be clean room and the subtask be make the bed), then longpress make the bed and drag it to the the faint grey divider you can see between every task, when you drag it there, you may notice that make the bed got indented to the right and that should make your subtask list! You can verify if your subtask has been included by checking the main task, in this case, clean the room, and if both clean the room and make the bed get checked out you should have understood the whole process. Similarly, you can add more subtasks, say vaccuum the floor, by longpressing and dragging it to the divider just below the main task. Hope I Helped!

I appreciate the help so far. I'm once again moving away from Astrid because I can't seem to get the subtasks to reoccur as subtasks on a daily / weekly schedule. I'm a manager at a restaurant, so I tried to put together a store closing checklist, which worked fine the first day, but when I set it to repeat for the second day, it did not retain the subtasks as subordinate to the main task and mixed them all in with other tasks I'd created. In addition to this problem, I've been unable to get any tasks that I create to sync with my calendar, even when enabling the GTasks sync and then having GTasks sync with my calendar, which again means that a primary function is not working as needed, or at least I have not been able to figure it out.
I'm going to have a look at 2Do to see what its got going for it, but I'm starting to feel like a lot of the apps that we've discussed so far, while still decent apps which are well written, are not going to present me with the catch-all I was hoping for.
On a side note, I have found that more apps are starting to include location based reminders, but they often come with fatal flaws for my desired use. MyLifeOrganized has location based reminders, but the only way to sync it to my calendar is to use either the cloud based sync or the desktop program both of which cost extra money and, from what I've read, create a system where getting tasks to appear in your calendar is hit or miss at best.
I've also noticed a distinct lack of proper calendar integration in everything I've tried. Some are able to put a task on the calendar, but if I want to be able to attach a to-do list to an appointment or time block, which is possible from what I understand about the calendar code, there just isn't any kind of option beyond making the appointment and then making a task which is due at the same time. Maybe I'm asking too much of these apps?

You ARE asking for a for a really feature heavy app. I guess what you require isn't just available in one single app right now. Maybe if you would be willing to combine 2 or 3 apps to get the job done you could achieve what you need. I'm sure app devs will add more features, but as of now I guess all apps I can suggest are insufficient for your needs. If you want, I can tinker around a bit and see what apps you can use as a combination?

I am willing to combine apps, but only if they are interlocking, or at least very easy to use together. Trying to juggle 2-3 different sets of tasks / appointments / calendars just seems like it would be too cumbersome for me to stick with it, which is ultimately going to be the deciding factor about how successful the app(s) are for my needs. If I have to re-enter a new set of checklists, or even re-subordinate each subtask every time I want a checklist to repeat, I'm not going to use it very long. Just like if I have to do triple-entry bookkeeping to have an appointment or project deadline, plus have that project have a to-do list associated with it, and also have trouble integrating everything into a single calendar, I'm not going to use it very long. If any of that makes sense?

Hi guys, I created a note taking app... hey! don't run away! This one is different, really.
I started developing a note taking app following my personal wishlist:
- Offline access.
- Option to sync the notes with my computer, but hopefully using.
- Read the notes easily with any text editor.
- Simple formatting.
- Simple organization with tags and folders.
So I started developing Capsa Notes, and then, as a former ORG-Mode user (not a power user though), new ideas came into my mind.
Capsa Notes saves your notes in plain text in your device. So if you want to read them without using Capsa Notes, it's OK. And if you add a new text file in the Capsa Notes folder, you will see the note in the app. The notes can have simple formatting using Markdown, so you can easily add bullets, numbered lists, titles, etc. It has a nice Markdown editor with buttons for the most common format options. And has Dropbox sync out of the box.
If you want a quick introduction, here's a video:
Capsa Notes is intended to be as simple as the user wants. I mean, if you want basic features, there they are, and you will be using it in no time. But also it has some advanced features that makes Capsa Notes like a simple (not fast, sorry) non-relational database, flexible enough to use it for... well almost anything I guess, it has a lot of possibilities.
I use it to store recipes, keep a log of the wines I've tasted (and then remember if it was good or not, or which type statistically I like the most), quick reminders, todo lists, shopping lists, write ideas for short stories...
Basic use
The notes are plain text files with the .md extension.
So in my desktop computer I can add a note in my Dropbox folder, and I'll have it on my device as soon as it has been synchronized.
Notes can have tags. Tags are saved directly in the text file, so you don't have to worry if you take the note somewhere else, as the tags will still be there. Then you can filter the notes by tags using the sliding drawer, where the used tags are listed.
Now, the folders: Capsa Notes uses folders in a slightly different way. Each folder must be associated to a note. So basically, in Capsa Notes, folders are notes that can contain subnotes (in fact, the folders are called Capsas for make the differentiation from a standard folder). In the app you don't have to do anything special, just create a note and then attach a folder to it using the action menu. Then you can add subnotes (and subnotes to each subnote if you want, and so on). If you want to manually create a Capsa (that is, a note with a folder attached), create a note, and then create a folder with the same name as the note without the extension. That's it.
You can import websites in Capsa Notes, they will be converted to Markdown (I created this project for that purpose, if someone wants to contribute, is more than welcome), and has a simple article extractor based on Boilerpipe for retrieving the main content.
Your notes can be shared as a plain text file from the app, and also as a html file. If the note contains images, the image will be reduced and encoded in the HTML file.
You can create templates too, so in case you want to add always the same note structure with minor changes, you will be prompted with a dialog asking for the fields you defined in the template (check the video for an example).
Advanced use
Notes can have variables. You add the variables defining them with a dollar sign and then the variable value. For example $milk 2 means that the variable milk will have a value of 2. Variables can be text (if you want to use spaces, surround the text with quotation marks), numbers (you can use periods) or dates (in ISO 8601 format).
The variables can be used for queries, so you can create customized lists based on these variables (list the notes that have $date lower than today). Capsa Notes has a simple query editor.
Queries can be inserted inline with the text too. So you can have a note with a lot of subnotes, and then have in the text, for example, the total sum of the variable $price displayed in the main note. For adding a query, surround it with ${ and }. Queries format is very similar to SQL with some differences, you can check a simple reference here.
Capsa Notes also have Tasker integration (only in the full version). So you can trigger a task if a query matches a certain condition, or assign a Tasker variable the result of a query, and then do whatever you want with it in Tasker.
And that's it mostly. I hope you like it, keep in mind it's still in beta, but stable enough for daily usage (at least for me).

I hope you enjoy it! Stay tuned for updates.
I just found the app 30 mins ago while i was browsing google play for outliners/note taking apps.
My first impression of it is very good so i googled it and this thread showed up, even better.
I like the idea of the structure and everything being easily modifiable with text editor on computer.
I will migrate my notes and use it for a couple of days and see if it fits me as good as it looks.
Nice work so far.

I'm glad you liked it. This las couple of weeks I've been really busy, so I'm focusing primarily on bug fixes. In a couple of hours an update should be live. If you have any questions or suggestions, please let me know.
Cheers
Nice, i look forward to the update.
So far i like it very much.
I've actually written down some suggestions as i tested it this morning (ofcourse i wrote them in your app )
If someone was having issues when adding images in notes with a filename containing non ASCII characters, it should be solved in the current version.
Also a couple of crashes when trying to move or delete a note before it was fully loaded.
Here are some stuff i wrote down as i tested it. I've found one minor bug, i have some suggestions and then some bigger suggestions that i imagine will take some time to implement (if you choose to).
Buggs:
"Loading note..." is stuck when created a new entry (not after editing).
Suggestions:
Making a "home" button to quickly navigate back to the start position, pehaps placed in the toolbar.
Adding so swiping works like this: List -> Note -> Home (or up one step).
Maybe add something on the front page that displays how the hierarchy looks for the notes with folders?
Something like "3 sub folders, 15 notes" just to get a quick overview.
Adding something to be able to delete notes without entering the notes one by one and pressing menu button to get the option.
Being able to mark several notes for deletion at the same time.
Adding a button like a "trash can" next to the "check" symbol when creating/editing to cancel or escaping without saving.
It would be nice to be able to change the width separator on split view.
It would be great to be able to scale the markdown bar. I for example use the galaxy note 3 and the icons are unneccessairly big on these big devices.
It would be nice to set your own colors for notes and folders.
Being able to set a real title for the note/folder that also becomes the file/folder name, instead of automaticly assigning it.
The move note, delete note and attach new folder under the menu button could maybe be icons on field that says "Notes" and take you one level up for quicker access.
When viewing a note, swiping left/right to change notes in the folder.
Big suggestions:
Being able to chose to have your kind of documents (.md) or just using it as a smart text editor with ".txt" extension.
Perhaps set this option when creating a folder so every note beneath it is formatted like that.
And maybe a selection if you want to use your header or not in the note?
When accessing the sidebar inside a note it would be nice to see the wole hierarchy, like a navigational tree.
Maybe with shortcuts so you can jump inside the navigational tree.
Adding alternatives for sorting notes in folders. Like created/edited/alphabeticly/tag (the usuals) acending/decending. And having "own" as well when you want to manually sort them.
This one is alittle bit linked to the suggestion to be able to choose a costum filename.
Support for handwritten notes? Nothing fancy like handwriting recognitions, but maybe like a simple "paint" function and saving them as pictures in the notes.
That's a lot of suggestions, thanks!
BTW, the loading note bug should be solved by now.
I will review the suggestions and get back here with what can be done, what is more unlikely, and what is incoming, thanks again!
Yes well its just suggestions, i hope you find something you like
I actually still got that loading bug. The note loads as it should but the text bubble is still there. Not a big problem though.
I've started using the app more frequently now, replacing my other note apps to get a deeper feel for it and i like the style so far. I use an app to sync the Capsa folder with my computer over wifi and then use notepad++ with an explorer extension to get tree viewing, so far it works great.
I like the open format of the app so far. Just a couple of suggestions and a question.
- The option of font size for notes is a welcomed addition. The font on the home screen didn't change. Could that be an option also?
- The insert date button uses the date dial which doesn't tell you what day of the week you are selecting. Google Keep and a few other apps use a calender date picker, which is much more functional.
Then the question: where are the .md files stored? I found some in /sdcard/Capsa Notes, but they all aren't there. I use Dropsync to synchronize with Dropbox and some files (mostly shared notes from other apps) aren't there.
I love that it's as complex as I want it to be and I can simply save notes directly into it (if I can find out where they're stored).
Good Notes!
Hi,
I'm searching for a note-taking app for a long time now and yours looks very, very promising!
My suggestions (and my needs) are as follows:
Folders
just plain folders in the root where you can put your notes in. At the moment the folders have to be attached to a note? a bit confusion. Maybe the folders could be Tabs on top of the screen just below the navigation.
Image Sizes
Images are Fullscreen in a Note, that is slow, even on my Quadcore Sony Tablet Z. maybe there should be an option how big the images should be displayed in a note (in percent) or if it should be full size or just with a thumbnail and clickable, which then displays the image.
Note Linking
why not have wiki-like notes-linking to other notes
Inline Links
Clickable inline links for URLs, maybe phone numbers, google maps coordinates, e-mails and other notes (note-linking)
Draging Notes
well, I think the draging notes function is IMHO not that usefull as they are just for sorting notes. Would'nt it be cool if the notes can be draged to a folder with that function.
Sorting
A small button on the top of the screen with sorting modes: Alphabet, Creation Date, Modification Date and Reversing the current Sort option
Searching
The most important point for a lot of notes, to find them fast. I'm missing a search field just on the top header. And an instant search would be really great to see the matching note titles, tags, note-text while you type. Maybe an option field nearby where we can choose what so search (tag or title or text or all of them)
Import
For new users with a lot of notes a import function would be great. I would suggest the easiest way would be a CSV or plain text import option via local or dropbox file should do the work.
Sync Options
Forgot to mention Sync options: small manual Sync Button on the main screen and a sync intervall in the options (1h, 3h, 5h, 1d, on change, on note save, etc.)
I think your app has really great pontential in the note-taking apps, because the dozens of apps which are available mostly have 2 or 3 of the features that would be great, but not all the mentioned, but you getting very close already now! Please go on and enhance your app. Would really appreciate this! :good:
I just bought the payed version to help you a bit to further develop your truly great app!
Greets,
Patrick.

Sorry for the late reply.
If you are not using Dropbox Sync within the app, the notes should be available in /sdcard/CapsaNotes. But you must be sure that you are not using the Dropbox option within the app.
About the date picker, I will look for a nicer solution, probably a calendar would be more useful. Let me know if you find your notes in the folder!
Moov Now fitness tracker allows to walk, run, swim, cycle, box, HIIT and crossfit with accuracy, but has no data export option.
I modified the Official Moov Coach application in order to export the swim timings to "MoovBackup" folder as csv and FIT files.
It works on any 4.4 and above Android device or Android emulator.
Install and enjoy.

Export Moov Now swim sessions to Strava
I built a new Moov Now Coach MOD to export swim sessions to FIT and csv files.
Just open your swim session from history and find into MoovBackup folder the exported files.
Use FIT files to upload your workout to Strava.com and Swim.com or analyse on SwimmingWatchTools.com
Use csv files to analyse on computer with spreadsheet app.

WIll this work for cycling as well?
Many thanks for posting this as it is exactly what I am looking to do...except for cycling and not swimming. I have no developer knowledge whatsoever but what you've done amazes me!
I apologize in advance if there are stupid questions below but my first possible one is, will the MOD you've created work for cycling too or just for swimming? I managed to figure out how to use the NOX emulator and was able to install your MOD - however, although I've viewed and exited rides I've done (which I understand should create a backup folder), this hasn't happened for some reason - and maybe that's because what you've created will only do create a backup folder for swims? If so, would you be willing to work on a MOD designed for cycling? If I'm missing something, and what you've created works for cycling too, could you please let me know what I am missing? And also, I have no idea how I would generate a .fit file so an explanation of that would be appreciated too.
Thanks again for helping users with an issue many of us have with MOOV (lack of export function). And thanks for any help you can provide.
