My friends and I have been using MyFitnessPal and other equivalent web sites to track our meals for a few months now. Most of these sites use a database of food items that have been submitted by users, and many times they're way off. I grew sick of having to look up food items online for accuracy, so I decided to write an Android app to make things easier.
Queue up my new (and first) Android application, "What's On Your Plate". It's a simple application that contains the USDA National Nutrient Database and all it's 7,906 items of goodness.
It allows you to:
Search for items by keywords.
Browse for items by category.
See detailed nutritional information for each item.
Choose a serving size, with custom units per item.
Save commonly used items to a list of favorites.
Share your selected item and serving size via email, Google Docs, or more.
Optionally display "net carbohydrates" rather than "carbohydrates".
I'm considering features such as listing the macro percentages within each food, and the ability to search for food items by percentages for when you're looking for something new to add to your next meal.
It's free of course, but there is a small AdMob ad at the bottom. Maybe it'll cover that $25 fee Google charges for posting on the market, but I doubt it haha.
Anyway, take a look, and shout at me if you like (or hate) it. Thanks!

v1.2
Updated the USDA Nutrient Database to Standard Release 24.
Added choline and vitamin D.
v1.3
Added an option to display "% Calories" rather than "% Daily Value"
Changed "Fat" from "Lipid_Tot" to the calculated total digestible fats.
Corrected the behaviour of the "back" button.
Corrected the Android Market developer link. (oops!)
The update is not showing as live on the Android Market just yet. It's acting screwy tonight.
v1.7
Rewritten from scratch to provide an ICS look and feel, with additional features, and an optional donation version for no ads.
Where is the app?
Hey guys, new to forum, and just released my first Android app. Please let me know what you think. Any feedback, negative or positive, is appreciated!
-----------------
Clever Splitter was a winter break project made by a handful of students that solves the problem that groups of people face when it comes to splitting a large bill.
Simply take a picture of a receipt with your camera, then assign the items amongst your friends any way you choose.
We created a UI that is the fastest, easiest one to use, comparatively to all other bill splitters out there. Give it a try!
Features:
We use OCR to read in your bill's items. No typing needed!
Use the placement of your party around the table to assign your items. You don't have to input any names!
Split an item between any number of people. Don't worry, our app accounts for fractional pennies in our own clever way.
Tax, tip, discounts, and more!
Check out our app at:
cleversplitter dot com
Looks extremely promising I'll download it for the next time I go to a restaurant

The 7 receipts limit is annoying. Only 7 times? Instead, limit the number of items that can be added or the number of persons to split the bill to. Otherwise lable your app as demo not free.

The SanDisk Memory Zone app supports your Android device’s local storage sources (e.g. internal memory and external SD card) as well as cloud services (e.g. Dropbox, Box, Google Docs, Picasa, and SugarSync).
The app’s main page displays a list of all the memory sources/accounts you use along with their current usage/limits.

2.APP Lock Android App, Secure Private & Personal Info
Posted on Feb 17, 2012 in Tools, Top Rated Apps | comment

Version: 1.21
Size: 600KB (no apps2SD)
Category: Tools
Price: Free
When you launch APP Lock for the first time, you’ll be asked to choose a passcode or pattern that will be required to open APP Lock and any secured applications. As many of you already know, it’s best practice to use a completely unique password that would be difficult for someone to guess. Also, avoid using the same passcode or lockscreen pattern as you’ve set for the phone itself.

5.Screen Filter Android Widget, Advanced Brightness Control
Posted on Jun 11, 2011 in Tools, Top Rated Widgets | 1 comment
The Screen Filter Android widget lets you apply a brightness shade to your Android device’s screen.
Version: 1.2
Size: 52.75KB
Category: Tools
Price: Free
Reduce your screen’s brightness more effectively with the Screen Filter Android widget than you’d previously done with the default Android options. The brightness reduction is perfect for nighttime viewing, eBook reading, or for just saving battery.
Long-press your Android homescreen to find and create a new Screen Filter widget. When the customization options popup, use the slider to set the desired brightness level. The default, 48.6%, is a nice compromise between functionality and visibility. Use the example text to decide which setting is best for your needs. Additionally, there is an option to toggle the backlighting of soft-keys (menu, home, back, search). Unfortunately, the developer states that this feature doesn’t work for all Android devices (and didn’t consistently work on my Samsung Galaxy S phone).
For those of you who also use the Tasker or Locale Android apps, you’ll be happy to know this widget includes a plugin allowing you to enable brightness configurations based on time, location, etc.
If you think this post helps at least few people ..then few more updates will added regularly
6 Helpful Android Shopping Apps Information
1. ToMarket Grocery Shopping
If you’re the type of person who keeps on forgetting to buy something after you’ve left the grocery, then this app is for you. ToMarket helps you list everything down before you head out. You can create your list by typing it directly in your phone, by uploading a CSV file, or by voice command. Everything is customizable; you can arrange items by category, and even by aisle depending on the store you’ve filtered. Moreover, it has a barcode scanner, a to-do list, and a coupon tracker. If you want to share your list via email or SMS
2. ShopSavvy
ShopSavvy is marketed as “the original barcode scanner for Android”, but it’s definitely more than that. If you want the best price for certain item, just type in the keyword or scan the barcode, and you’ll get a roster of online and brick-and-mortar places within your vicinity that sells it, as well as how it’s priced in each store. You can check out reviews to help you with your purchase, or you can add products you like to your wish list and monitor price changes. ShopSavvy also saves your history for later browsing, and is integrated with Facebook and Twitter. It’s a pretty good app for canvasing and casual shopping
3. Milo Local Shopping
You have probably experienced going to the mall only to find that what you wanted to buy was out-of-stock. Milo can help you avoid that hassle by giving you access to store shelves in your vicinity. Enter your keyword and the app will pull up nearby stores, and the number of stocks of the item you need. You’ll also get to compare prices so you know where you can get the best deal. Currently, it only works in the US, but we hope that they have plans of going international soon.
4. Shopkick
Shopkick is a geolocation-based app with a spin – not to mention freebies. Here’s how it works: once you walk in a partner store (like Target), the app recognizes where you are and immediately gives you “kickbucks”, which are reward points you need to accumulate in order to redeem your gift cards or Facebook Credits. The nice thing about is that you can redeem anywhere, so you don’t worry about searching for a faraway store branch just to get your freebies.
5. Google Catalogs
Google Catalogs is another great addition to the company’s wide array of applications. Designed specifically for tablets, it offers you hundreds of catalogs to browse through, lets you shop without leaving the app, and gives you the option to share the items you find interesting with friends via email. It’s under continuous development, so we can be sure that more catalogs will be added soon.
6. Egg Drop
Even if there are tons of shopping apps out there, Egg Drop manages to differentiate itself by focusing not just on what stores have for sale, but on what your neighbors have for sale. Everything works in real time, and should you have any questions, you can talk with the seller with the in-app messager. Planning to sell something? You can instantly upload a photo of your item as well as its price and you’re ready to go. It’s almost like Craiglist, only more functional, and it’s pretty nifty when it comes to searching for the best deals around. If you’re interested in online shopping but can’t stay put scanning auction sites all day long, then this app is for you.

Nice C&P-work...
I'd love the SanDisk app if it could ACTUALLY BACKUP MY SDCARD, and not just selected file types :banghead:

Thanks for C&P from Web !
AppAware is another way to discover those types of apps. The crowdsourcing app tracks what has become popular on the Android Market within a given timeframe, which provides a quick snapshot of what others are downloading.
AppAware narrows popular apps to within a week, day, or hour. As people begin to download Digg.com or Trapster, AppAware lists those as popular things that you may be interested in seeing. Users are then linked to Android Market entries for more information and download links. Most important of all is the “Installed by Me” feature that narrows listings by your location. This allows users to see apps popular by Android users in their community, making it easier to discover hyperlocal apps and filter out things that may be popular elsewhere but are useless to you (like Orkut).
KEY FEATURES
The “Top removed apps in the last hour” may also help determine what might be worth skipping (not always an indicator of poor apps, but can help you make decisions).
Offers popular Android Market listings based on time period or location
From all app that in the list only 1 is the great and very usefull SanDisk Memory. I love this app to back up my phone
muy interesante
For discovering apps also try AppTo
I also like SanDisk Memory
Simbal
Your money, simply balanced
Hey guys, I wanted to share an app that I made recently with you. It's called Simbal, and it's an electronic checkbook app. The name Simbal comes from "Simple Balance".
I made Simbal because, like many people, I have various bank accounts that I need to keep track of. Unfortunately, my bank's app is always behind by a few days, so it's practically useless. And while I do have a checkbook, I always find myself putting off recording my receipts and purchases until later.
So, I decided to combine the practicality of a checkbook with the convenience of a smartphone! Simbal allows you to create and track an unlimited number of checkbooks and transactions. It also has home screen widgets (Or lock screen, if you're running at least 4.2) that allow you to track the balance of specified checkbooks and add transactions directly from the widget.
Simbal has ads, but they can be turned off though in app purchases. But they're more like donations, because I don't believe in buying functionality, so I've provided 5 different donation amounts. All of them just turn off ads.
If you like what you're hearing, please go check out Simbal on the Play Store here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bkp.simbal
Or on the Amazon app store here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DRKP2VW/ref=mas_pm_simbal
(You can find screenshots there too)
I'm totally open to comments, and Simbal is definitely still in active development. (If you'd like, you could even leave me a review in the Play Store) Thanks for your time!
how do I get rid of ads

There's a donate option in the menu. The way it's done is through an in app purchase. There are five different preset donation amounts, all of them do the same thing, which is to remove ads. The only reason I provide multiple amounts is so that people could donate more if they wanted to.
