I've seen a few App Requests posted as threads here, and I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread dedicated to act as a catchall for App Requests. I gather that we have Dev Dudes from major tech corps roaming around these halls, so why not have a list of apps we want as consumers easily available to them!
I'll kick things off with these requests:
-A good, integrated guitar/bass tuner with metronome and practice timer(s)
-Adobe Camera RAW interface
-Adobe Bridge for tablets
-VLC Player for tablets
-DJ mixing software that can use headphone output and HDMI [audio] separately for cue/mix output
Feel free to point us to apps that fill requests as they are developed or if they have existed before the request
Way to develop/compile your own android programs.... (or at least just do the developping/autocomplete, etc would be AWESOME!) and well. an app that could launch a ubuntu distro

I'd like an app that you can instantly take a snapshot of the screen or take a camera snapshot and start to annotate on it right away, e.g you were browsing and came across something of interest and you want to add your own comments and underline or mark a specific area.
I know this can be done using repligo or ezpdf however it will involve a few steps to achieve using the Asus's in built snapshot feature and then converting the document to pdf in order to annotate but I want something instant without having to convert the file first, similar to htc flyers note taking app.
Can't you do this with Evernote? I just downloaded this last night but it seems really slick.

Unfortunately, you cannot annotate using evernote although it is fantastic for taking notes, i use it at work at meetings. I want to be able to take a snapshot of the meeting agenda which is usually printed and then start to add notes against agenda items.
I'm just going to make a list of the things I think will make this brilliant - I'm a very small time developer, and don't have the skills to do these, unfortunately:
Something similar to Microsoft Onenote - Drawing/notes/annotations all in one
"Phone Sync" where you pick up your tablet, and it also becomes your phone for SMS, MMS, Calls, and you can share clipboards between the two - This would be brilliant!
Decent Twitter and Facebook widgets
Modified Launcher with resizable widgets, folders - ideally, LauncherPro optimised for Honeycomb.
I'd like to see the Monkey Island games and some of the old Cinemaware titles such as Defender Of The Crown on Android.

I designed an Android app for tablet which I think would be pretty easy to make, UI, name, logo and all, but... I'm not a programmer. Also I believe this will be an app which would be handy for a lot of people.
Since I designed, thought of and branded the app I really don't just want to give the idea away to anyone, but if any app developer is interested feel free to contact me and I could explain the concept to them.
PS: I don't want a share of the profits or to get paid for it or anything like that, all I would want is to find a developer who could do justice to not only the concept but also to the design since there are so many well functioning but terrible looking android apps.
Excellent posts!
Thanks for the interest and the activity on the thread!
I'm watching a thread where a couple Asus dev dudes have actually weighed in on an issue users are having, so I'm gonna see if I can't point them to this one so we'll have some ears that can make a difference. Hopefully some [all?] of the ideas here will filter thru and become reality!
Kudos to everyone!
I'd like an app that can sync via bluetooth (not via the web/cloud), incoming sms messages/caller id/missed call info, from an android phone directly to the transformer with notifications.
I know there are lots which do it via the web, but this isn't an option for me (pre-pay sim not contract).
EDIT:
Another idea for an app, don't know if possible to implement or not. When browsing google search results it would be nice to have an app that lets you see how many kilobytes or megabytes a website requires you to download, before you accessed the page. So that mobile users can see how much data is required and can manage their free allowance better, or not be charged a fortune.
A media player app that can
1. have gesture controls like moboplayer
2. have good codec support like moboplayer
3. can stream from server
4. and can hide the honeycomb taskbar!!!!
Settlers of Catan map generator
Would be cool to see a Settlers of Catan map generator with support for Seafarers, Cities and Knights, Harbours and a roll counter.
did it ever occur to anyone that now that there is a keyboard and mouse capabilities that someone should port an fps to the transformer?
I would love an app/widget that monitored the battery of both the Transformer and the keyboard dock. It's almost impossible to tell how much juice is left in the keyboard. If someone knows of an app/widget or a built-in way to do that, please let me know.
Edit: I would also love to see a folder app that integrates data from the Market, so if I download a game, it automatically adds it to the Games folder, etc.

I'd like to see a version of the EyeFi manager/control center for Android
still hunting for the torrent app to work with private torrents
alternate keyboard
since the dock is still in short supply it would be nice to have the ability to use my android phone as a keyboard/trackpad for my transformer through bluetooth or something. the entire screen could be a landscape keyboard that you could swipe down to access trackpad.
Hey guys,
We have just released our task app for Android called "Tasks", which features a beautiful ICS interface. We adapted it to all screen sizes and backported it to Android 2.2+ using the same visual design.
Features
Features include sync with Google Tasks and the use of the Android Ice Cream Sandwich design language.
Powerful
The application matches all the features found on Google Inc.’s online client for Google Task. This includes the support for several task lists, notes, due dates, rearranging by dragging and task grouping. Furthermore, Tasks is tied into the Android account manager and supports the parallel usage of multiple Google accounts. Also, users will receive notifications about due dates and can display task lists on their home screen via widgets.
Design
Tasks makes strong usage of the Android Ice Cream Sandwich design language, also referred to as Holo. From the beginning, Tasks was designed to run well across devices, be it a phone, a tablet or anything in between. Even though Tasks employs Android latest features, it runs on Android 2.2+ with the same set of functionality and the same design.
Launch video
A good overview of the features and design is given by our launch video:
Availability and Promotion
Tasks is available immediately on Google Play in two versions: paid and free. As a launch promotion, the paid version is available at a significant lower price during April. The exact price can be found on Google Play as it is subject to your local currency.
The free version is ad-supported and matches the paid version in features.
Tasks is currently localized to American English and German.
Google Play links
Tasks Paid: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.teamtasks.tasks.paid
Tasks Free: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.teamtasks.tasks
About us
Team Tasks is a group of four Swiss Android developers. While they all have previous Android experience, Task is their first joint project.

Will test later, but downloading now. Battery is almost empty. Oh, and the video is awesome.
Looks nice, will try it later.
Why no screenshots or video of the widgets?
Just added a screenshot of the widget
Thank you for the feedback!
Just saw the video. This app looks top notch.
I like how it looks. Works good so far. But before I would use it, i miss two options:
- links in tasks should be clickable.
- it doesn't integrate into the android sharing system. E.g. I'd like to save a website. With gtasks I just press the share option in the browser and share it with gtasks. It's then added as a task.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
I really appreciate the account setup right when you first open the app. Some apps neglect that.
This task app has most major features a task app needs. The clearing of tasks animation is the cherry on top.
Suggestions/feature requests:
Add an All list that contains all or user-selected lists, like gTasks.

I would like those features aswell.
I actually just uninstalled gTasks and will stick with this app
Really love the simple ICS style.
Are there more differences than the ads between free and pro?
On a side note, the widget only showed up after a reboot, but that might just be a fluke (using cm9 on gnexus).

The widget appearing only after reboot isn't a app bug. Happens with lot's of apps. It's random, at least with me.

I want this as well, to add support to Smooth Calendar. If you want to be THE tasks solution you really need a content provider.
calender integration
hi,
will there be a google calendar integration in the future?
where do I find this moderator page in your google+ page?
does anyone has problem after the daylight saving time? (I'm in Italy)
with or without checking automatic timezone\date & time I always have notifications before its due time.
Reboot or force close of the app doesn't solve the problem. I tried with other tasks app and this problem isn't there
for example:
It's 21:00. Due time 21:00: A notification appears and it says 20:00 as due time
It's 21:00. Due time 21:30: A notification appears and it says 20:30 as due time
It's 21:00. Due time 22:00: A notification appears and it says 21:00 as due time
It's 21:00. Due time 22:01: No notifications but after 1 minute I'll have one
Basically it's like he doesn't consider the new time zone.
The strange thing is that Google Calendar(on the web) has the same timezone\time of the phone so it shouldn’t be a problem
Also, not only I have this problem with my HTC One S ICS 4.0.4 but even with my father Galaxy Ace 2.3.6

Enjoy...I did search first and i could not see any similar threads on this forum...If there is an old outdated one then this one will be updated all the time..Please suggest what apps you guys like the most, which ones you use and would recommend and which ones you would like to be removed from the list and then i can add the ones that work perfectly with your phone.
Just click Thanks. Thanks for this great post. Do you know any app that can show reminder (a week ahead)? Just some simple and clean like the CM10 lockscreen calendar reminder? I search in Play and most are w/design or box around or take almost the whole lockscreen. Something like the CM10. Yes i can flash CM10 or ASOP ROM but i'm not interest in it since I don't like the camera. I like sense camera because it's a full screen when viewing. Thanks.
You might add Call Master to the list of apps. The most complete and best call/sms/mms blocker, firewall, etc.
To the widgets, you might add UCCW
Sorry not to include links, but it's a little bit difficult to search for and copy/paste links while I'm on mobile. They're easy to find though with a simple Google search. Both have xda threads as well

how on earth can you hate that game? it is awesome but anyways few more updates coming soon guys
Honestly as well I'd mention photobucket personally as opposed to instagram. Uploads are quick and when posting online off my phone finding directlinks is a sinch to share.

Ya that is one game that do play once in a while lol.
Also I'd like to suggest the application "Android System Info" as well which does not require root. Since the majority of people here are obviously modding and such few new members actually follow the rules and read around and are oblivious to if they have an S3 or S4 One S. This app with give you information that allows you to determine this easily along with just about anything else you could ask for in a good format.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem with slider messaging on their stock sense V4+ JB 4.1.1 one S devices?
as you open slider messaging, a box pops up saying "unfortunately messaging has stopped" and the app just closes
Didn't happen with previous versions, but with the update just before V3.5, it started happening.
No one else seems to be experiencing the same problem
Most neccessary apps are aready on your list, but I'd add:
- Ultimate custom widget (most powerful tool for designing your own widgets, though a bit complicated);
- EveryCircut (absolutely a must-have for every engineer);
- Youtube Remote (remote control for youtube on your PC).

Hello Guys,
After doing app re-skin for a while, i decided to stop and do some real things instead. I've started learning android programming for the last 4 months. I used Lynda.com, Team Tree House, Android Hive as learning resources and a lot (i mean a lot of) stack overflow threads! I created the app using Parse.com as BaaS (Backend as a Service) It's a great service to get your app off the group. I still don't have users to test it's performance but i hope it will do.
The app i created Called FoxyKards, It's a simple app where you can discover Life hacks, tips and tricks the easy way. Filter them by categories, places and supplies. Add to favorites and comment. There are a lot of amazing hacks on the internet some works perfectly and some didn't work at all! I built the app with one reason: to make the maximum use of these tips in your everyday life, to solve problems the smart way and to improve your life, that's why i've added the filters (categories, places,....).
In addition to the android app i created a website for it and an admin panel using Node js / express js.
I hope that you check it out, it's on the playstore and if you like it, it would be nice to see a review/feedback from you.
Playstore Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.handykards.lifehacks
Website Link: http://www.foxykards.com
What i'm doing now:
I'm filtering through a large list of life hacks and adding them in daily basis.
I'm learning to market the app via social media website
App Store Search Optimization (ASO)
App indexing
What i'm planning to do next:
Learning the most from users.
Adding a really smart feature i've thinking of and the reason i started android dev. The feature is when a user check-in to a place such as restaurant, gas station, airport ... via foursquare or other service, the app push a notification with tips and tricks you can use in that place.
I'am using Parse in one of my apps! Great platform.
I've downloaded the app. Check your inbox i sent u a message!
Great start!
As i'm sure others were, I was disappointed to see AppChat go away. I've been working on a much larger scale idea, but figured this could be a good starting point.
talk pseudo is an anonymous chat app that creates rooms based on the apps installed on your device, location, device information, and your interest. While most chat apps (and social media in general) require a login or sign up, I wanted to try a new approach. Everything is anonymous. For each room, you are given a randomly generated ID (and color). These identifiers are also periodically regenerated. While I can't make any guarantees towards the long term direction, I can assure you that the platform of anonymity will ALWAYS be here (looking at the like of yik yak, which started forcing profiles/usernames). While in a given room, you are able to chat as well as optionally attach images to your message.
With talk pseudo you can also add custom rooms, tailored towards your own personal interest. You can add your favorite artist from Spotify, favorite bar from Foursquare, tv shows, or websites and subreddits. All of the rooms can also be toggled. So if you'd like to hide location based rooms, simply select to hide them in the settings. Along with that, if you select to hide location rooms for example, you will also no longer be prompted for location permissions. Everything permission/data wise is used on an AS NEEDED basis.
Available Rooms:
- Apps installed on device
- Device information (model, brand, etc)
- Location information (city, street, etc)
- Network information (Provider, timezone, etc)
- Nearby Foursquare places
- What's trending
- Twitter trends
- Foursquare trending places
- pseudo trending
Available Custom Rooms:
- Spotify
- Foursquare places
- TV Shows
- Reddit / Subreddits
- Websites
An extra feature that I saw people were requesting from AppChat was an "app search" functionality, allowing you to find discussions on apps before you were to buy one for example. talk pseudo has a built in app search, that leverages the created app based rooms. I found this to be the best approach, as this guarantees that there are users for that given app already. But keep in mind, this means not ALL apps will be available, though the list will continue to grow as time goes on.
Please also keep in mind this is in a very early state. I do have a rather large long term plan for features, but I am also looking for as much feedback as I can get. I've found that community driven apps tend to have great outcomes, and i'd love for talk pseudo to take that approach.
That app is now live on Google Play. I will also be publishing talk pseudo to a few other Android app stores here soon. If you do not have the Play Store on your device, I can also get a link up to a direct download. Along those same lines, that app uses but does not require Play Services. Everything should have graceful fallbacks in the event Play Services is not on the device!
Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.gopseudo.talkpseudo (or search talk pseudo)
