[APP] iKamasutra - There's a position for that.

Hi Everyone,
We just completed our android version of iKamasutra. This is the original app from 2008 that is designed to to inspire couples to try out new positions. As you can tell by the name we originally developed it for iPhone, but are now really making an effort to make it even better for Android.
To reach this goal, we greatly appreciate all types of feedback, from if the name is stupid to have on Android market to new feature requests.
You can find more info about the app at lovekamasutra.com/android and there is also a Lite version that is free to try out. So please let us know what you think!

Where are the differences between lite and paid version?

10,33mb is quite a lot for an application, isnt it? A bit too much for me, so i guess i am restricted to doing the missionary position for the rest of my life....
Sent from my x32 using the licking write method....man I am thirsty now!

Hi, the difference is that the free app has ads and 25 positions to try it out. The full one currently has 106 and will expand.
The size of 10mb could be hefty but we got plenty of custom graphics with audio so it's really hard to make it much smaller. The full app is currently 17mb and we aim to never go past 20mb. Can it become a problem?

For people who cant write the apps back to sd it might be a problem i guess... but maybe i am the only one...

Ok, what size would be good if you can't put it on a sd card?

One marketing suggestion would be to change the name. It really irks me when apps have "i" on android.

It really 'irks' me when people make these comments rather than about the app. The name is FINE, stop relating it to Apple.
Nice one, not one for me but i'm sure many will try it

Downloaded the free app and ended up paying for the paid version. It's only a buck after all. Sure looks like I'm going to have to start flexing and hitting the gym more for some of these positions!!

Alright, any more feedback regarding the interface, interaction, or performance is still very welcome! or well, any other comments to you would like to share with us
Thanks!

Not bad, not bad at all. Nice design. Like a funny "tried" button. It is really useful.

[APP] Devine "We Fail" Promo

This is a promo app that plays Devine's 1st single, "We Fail" , off their first album titled "14 Steps to Stone"
: : : DEVINE : : :
Devine is an American heavy metal / Hard Rock Band blending elements of Rock, Hard Core, Metal, and Hip-Hop. However, this band is unique for more than just their sound but also in their peculiar arrangement. The band not only remains spread out over the United States but for nearly a year, and after a completed recording no one in the band had ever been in the same room!
for more to the story go to www.devineband.com
watch the music video here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ai33ZbWRIs
This is an awesome band I have been doing a lot of work with
This app was created in App Inventor because I have no idea what im doing but it does the job of letting people hear them and getting the word out lol
If anyone has a marketplace account and is willing to post this on the market for free then let me know!

Why would you bother to come on the Internet to post if your gonna hate?... {Edit: good to see the hateful post's deleted}
The basic principle of it is pretty great actually; I'd love to have a couple of my songs (per say) featured in a app that can be deleted, instead of having people download my song's & then have it get lost in their folders. They can delete it if they hate it with ease, or have a link in the app to your iTunes/Music page if they like it.

Everyone...
Just because a project here doesn't include you in the scope of people that it might be relevant to, that's no reason to come bashing those who created it or who are interested in it. If it's not for you, just move along....

oh god i'm embarrassed to have ever heard this

Can I just say that if you don't want feedback or opinions, constructive or otherwise, then a forum really isn't the place to be announcing your app.
I thought this forum was a place devs/users could gain feedback and discuss apps, if you aren't prepared to take the good with the bad then why post?

Because this is for people to offer constructive criticisms about the app, not needlessly hateful comments. Saying "this app sucks because i don't like the music" is not helpful in the slightest. We are supposed to be rating the app, not necessarily the music.
By the way, this is a brilliant idea for an app. I think NYGraFFit1 put it best

[UPDATED 11-13][INFO] [1035+ APPS] Ultimate List of Tablet Apps - Updated regularly

If you guys like the site, please hit the Google Plus one button the top left corner of the site so I know
Tablified.com - [tab * li * fied] -verb. 1. apps that have been specifically made for Android tablets.
Well, after days of working on the site, its finally here. It's not perfect, but I think android tablet owner are going to enjoy this.
One of the biggest flaws with the Android Market is that there really isn't a dedicated section for tablet apps. Phone apps get thrown in the pile with tablet apps and its just impossible to find tablet SPECIFIC apps.
Many developers say their apps are "optimized" for tablets which, at first sounds great. But sadly, most of the time the app is just adjusted to fit better on a larger screen without adding any new features or tablet specific UI elements.
This is where Tablified.com comes in. Each app is tested to insure that it really is a tablet specific app. While I want to give credit to XDA and the Xoomforums for providing me with a list of apps, I found out that many of those apps aren't really tablet specific. There are currently over 50 apps on the site and more added every day. If you have an app, please use the "Submit an app" link on the site and let me know what the app is; if it meets the requirement, I'll add it to the list.
Tablified.com does NOT allow you to purchase the app. I simply links back to the Android market for you to complete the transaction. What I do is list up as many apps as I can find, after testing each one of course. I am very critical about which apps go up because I want users to only see tablet SPECIFIC apps-that's why games are currently not available. Until I see the same version of "Burn the rope" that's available on the iPad for Android tablets, you won't find it on my list-this goes for many other games.
We have a couple of people working on the site and are recruiting people to help. If you know how to use wordpress and would like to join the team, then please PM me. I apologize if there are any errors on the site. I did my best. If there are any errors, please leave a comment on the app and I will fix it ASAP.
We have big plans coming soon. Can't same much now, but I think its something to look forward to. Sorry for making this so long, but I hope everyone enjoys the site. Ads are there to help pay for the hosting-sorry, no ad-free version

Cool Site.. I love what you are doing with it. I'll be sure to keep this page in mind when browsing. Maybe set up an RSS feed when a new app is added so I can see it on Pulse.

Maybe I'm missing it, but a top downloaded section would be nice, maybe a top downloaded for the week, most popular list, etc. Or exporting the ratings from the market and displaying that.

thanks for your feedback. the only way that i can do a "top downloaded section" would be if people start voting on the site. this is accomplished by simply rating it using the stars icons . if you guys dont rate then i cant display the top rated app/game etc. I had a section for that kinda stuff but because the vote count was low and it didnt look pretty so it didnt seem worthwhile to keep it. so once you guys start voting then i can make a place for it. this is only the first month of the site being released so maybe next month ill put it in. in the mean time, you can scoll to the bottom on the homepage to see the most viewed app.
as for the rating, i dont think theres a way to do that. but each app has a widget at the bottom of the page that has the market link as well as the rating it received on the Android Market. if you guys like the app, simply rate it by pressing the stars just like you would on the official market.
please keep the suggestions coming.

WOW!!! Thanks s for creating this very cool site!
However, I miss "Locus""
Altough bookmarked your site!

Although Lotus looks ok on tablets, its not a tablet specific nor tablet optimized app. You can find more detail about the requirements on the FAQ section.

Can't find any decent gallery app, anyone seen any with super fancy effects similar to the honeycomb Youtube app?

Its not tablets its Honeycomb
I was excited when I saw a posting about this thread until I actually went to the site. It really isn't a site listing apps designed for the larger, landscape real estate of a tablet but actually a site listing apps that are fully integrated for Android 3.0+ (Honeycomb) instead. There are plenty of tablets that run Android 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3 like the one I'm typing on right now. I would appreciate apps that are designed for a tablet as much as the nearest Xoom user.
Quite the disappointment :-(

[APP] (In-development) Sketch 'Em, a "how to draw" app for Android

This app has been released and is now available on the Samsung Apps Store & Google Play
Hello! I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, but here goes.
I'm part of a team developing a niche app for the Note. It's a drawing tutor, that's supposed to teach users how to draw in different art styles. We're looking at anime/manga for initial release, with different "style packs" to be released in the future as downloadable content.
Here's a video of the app trailer (goes up to 1080p for full Galaxy Note screen, though cropped, resolution):
I'd just like to know, for the kind of people who might be interested by this kind of app, what kind of features might you like to see?
My team has a deadline to meet so we definitely cannot promise implementing every feature right away, but if the app does reasonably well, it's safe to say it'll get the long-term update treatment.
And yes, there is a very similar app out there called "How to Draw - Easy Art Lessons" in the Google Play store, but we hope to better execute the same idea.

I think it looks awesome !!! I Love drawing on the Note but Im really **** at it lol So having something like this would suit me down to the ground !!
Looking forward to it

Hey azzledazzle, thanks for that. I hope we can pull it off well.

KABAYAN
i will you all the success in this app. i too am a fan of drawing but drawing does not like me that much, i hope this app mends our differences, lol.

Haha, yeah that's half the reason I'm liking this project so much. Thanks for the vote of confidence!

I love drawing, drawing hates me! I hope this would help me though
Edit: Saw the video and it looks pretty neat. One feature I would like to request is.. I don't know how to put it but anyways.. I would like to select a image from the gallery, say a cute lil puppy, and be able to trace that picture on a blank sheet (or canvas??). So after I finish tracing, I could edit it a little, a few finishing touches here and there, and save it.

As far as I know, any non-touchwiz ROM can't access the Samsung App Store. I tried installing the apk, tried the website. Nothing helped. I wonder if there's a workaround that I may not know of though.

I've tried a little bit of drawing with the note but not got very far.
Would be interested in an app to help me develop it further. Not seen video yet (no wifi atm) but will check later and let you know of anything I'd like to see implemented.
Would be happy to perform testing if you need anyone.

Hi guys, just letting you all know we've uploaded to the Samsung app store and it's currently undergoing review. Additionally, according to the Samsung Smart Apps Challenge rules as well as the general Samsung developer agreement, they don't require exclusivity for titles on their store. So we'll be uploading to Google Play afterwards, too.
Some tidbits about the current version:
Creator mode is done, in very rudimentary form. Users can make their own drawing tutorials in a step-by-step manner with up to 13 steps, upload the tutorial, and view/trace the tutorials of others in the community category.
Aside from anime characters, the app now has a dinosaurs category!

Yeah, I could've worded that better. My apologies.
Some trivia about the app if you care to know: it started out as a kind of maze game where you control this glowing lump of lava lamp goo by using the S-Pen, and depending on the amount of pressure you apply, the goo would grow or shrink in size, making it more difficult to traverse the maze if you're heavy-handed with the pen. But the S-Pen SDK doesn't really have any functionality for animations so it looked really stale.

All that dude does is go around posting pointless insults. And not in the "search first, noob" kind of way, but rather in the "I don't get enough attention and have to take out my lack of self esteem on internet forums" kind of way.
Best way to deal with people (and I use the term loosely) like that is to completely ignore them. Nothing pisses of someone trying to seem important or insulting than completely disregarding what they're saying. You can't reason with ignorance. But you can piss it off by ignoring it.

Actually some of these "gimmicky" features, as some people refer to them, need highlighted. So, thanks OP--:0
And yes a few here take every opportunity to bash someone, they are on every Forum I have been on from day one. Just best not to respond. Playing Devil's advocate though, I do sometimes respond to those who want the step by step answer with no research on their own. Main reason I don't like that is that they are doing themselves a disservice by not learning the how and why things are done the way they are in flashing roms. It will come back to haunt them.
I actually use a number of these features and they work very well. Except :eye" scrolling. Hopefully that will be improved and hope app devs and Goolge allow more programs to use these features.
There are too many negative comments on these features here and in reviews along with the screen issue to cause people to hesitate buying this phone. So, these goodies need highlighted in these threads from time to time. It is absolutely a fantastic phone. Functional and Fun at the same time--
Best I have ever owned. Not that I didn't love my Nexus One and HTC One S, but technology just keeps producing better products. And 5 inch is perfect screen size for me.

It will work on Flip Board and Stock Calendar. Do you have it selected in Options?
Can't recall what others atm
EDIT: Oh, works on speed dial--hover over number and contact comes up. don't have to memorize my speed dials now--

Also, by accident had it work on Music Player. If you hover over the lower Next and Previous symbols it will tell you next/previous song. These are when Music player is full screen with Album Art.
