I've been working on a tablet optimized bible and note taking application, and the first beta is now available. Due to licensing issues, the KJV is currently the only supported translation. The app is, however, fully compatible with all of the MySword resources that are graciously hosted by the MySword.info team here:
http://www.mysword.info/download-mysword/bibles
[edit - to be clear, using other bibles isn't difficult, but for now probably requires root. Just download any of the bibles from the source above, unzip it, rename it to bible.db, and replace the existing file at /data/data/com.bedoig.bible/databases/. I'll make OTA downloads possible in the future, but you XDAers like things complicated.]
They have mentioned that they are currently having hosting issues, so please avoid downloading any files that you don't absolutely need until I can arrange alternate hosting.
This is a first release and I have a lot of other features planned. Please report any issues or feature requests you have in this thread. Thanks, and I hope you find it useful.

Looks decent so far. Would be great if there was a way to tap into the YouVersion bibles. Also, any way to bookmark? Or is that a future plan

Using the YouVersion bibles was my first thougt as well, but they seem to be encrypted - which is understandable since many of the translations they distribute are copyrighted.
What exactly do you mean by bookmark? Have the application open in the same place you left off? Or more like a stored favorites kind of thing that links to particular verses?
sweet! I was actually just contemplating trying to make one of these myself the other day because I wanted a good bible app on my tablet
Thanks for this!
Also, will you be making a way to highlight scriptures?
Bookmarking is important to me as well. Being able to bookmark will allow a person to save a current passage he's doing a study/research on.
I'll add bookmarking to the to-do list.
Highlighting might come somewhere down the road.
At the moment, I'm working on automatically parsing standard scripture notations in your notes (Gen 1:1, Exodus 2:1, etc) and turning those into actionable links to bring up that particular scripture. Along those same lines, I'd like to make the scriptures pane accept clicks and import a reference to that scripture into your notes.
Edit - Ha! It just hit me that once I get the clickable references going, you could easily just make a note titled 'Bookmarks' with a list of all the scriptures you want quick access to. I might do something a little fancier eventually, but would that work for the time being?
this is great. one thing that frustrates me with youvision is having to be online to make notes. Question... how do i access my downloaded version that i placed in the databases folder i created? Thanks

If you have downloaded the app and run it at least once, there should already by a file named bible.db at /data/data/com.bedoig.bible/databases. Just replace that file with the bible you downloaded from MySword. They store their files in a compressed format (gz) so you'll need to uncompress it then rename it bible.db. Then just overwrite the existing file in the directory above.
Awesome way to spread the Lords word around. Get it up!
Very cool, would like to see copy+past ability for the notes portions. Search, and text size options.
Sweeet i was looing for this good job
So I've got the automatic linking working, but the EditText (the box where you actually display and edit your notes) doesn't really play nice with the links. When clicked, the link gets selected/highlighted and returning to a normal edit mode isn't totally intuitive.
I think the better approach would be something like this: initial pane is your list of notes --> clicking a note converts the pane to a reading (but not editing) view of that note (the links would be active here) --> clicking on the body of that note would open up the editable view (the links would not be active here).
Does that make sense? It buries the editing function one step deeper, but it's probably the correct way of handling this situation.
Anybody want to try it out as-is and let me know what you think? To me, the interaction between the links and the EditText just doesn't work.
Edit - attached preliminary v0.2 for testing
Edit2 - Oh, and for now only full references like Genesis 1:1, Revelation 2:1, 1 Peter 1:1 are recognized. The book has to spelled out as presented in the book list pane, and there has to be a chapter and verse with a colon in between.
Edit3 - and finally, you have to save and re-enter the note for the links to become active.
--- apk removed. v0.2 should be up within the next few days ---
Great app. Thanks for including TSK. Is there any way to turn off strongs numbers while reading KJV? Thanks.

Did you download your own bible? I don't think I included strongs numbers in the version I released on the market.
I downloaded the new file, but I don't see any differences.

The one from a couple posts up? The notes section should now automatically turn scripture references into clickable links. The format is very particular though. It must follow the convention of TEXT followed by a space followed by NUMBER:NUMBER (ie, Genesis 2:3). You must also save and then re-enter the note for the links to be created.
Yeah, I just reread the post.
It works...but it's not very intuitive. =/
If I could make a couple of comments in general usage:
-There should be some kind of "selected" indicator when you jump to a passage through the link
-Selecting a note takes you straight into edit mode, would prefer it to take you to a view mode first, then optionally and edit move. As is right now the keyboard pops up when you select a note. Doesn't seem like the desire state when you're only reading notes.
-If you select a link, it goes into what appears to be a permanent edit state with no selection indicators.
-Black theme seems....unruly for a bible app. =P I think default white theme would be much nicer.
I can put forth even minor grievances if you'd like, lol
Will check this out. Thanks!!
I wish that youversion would make HC optimized app; I have been hoping for this ever since I got my TF, but yours just might be the ticket.

Thanks for the feedback. Comments are below. Specific questions I have are in bold.
-I don't remember where I was at when I compiled and posted that, but I do have the selection indicators working. When you click a link the book and chapter are highlighted in their respective columns, just like if you manually navigated to the verse.
-I agree here. That's the way I'm planning on handling it. In the "reading" mode, the links will be active. In the "edit" mode, they will not. Should you navigate to the "edit" mode by clicking anywhere on the text, or should I have a dedicated "Edit" button? Having a separate reading mode will also make for nicer scrolling than what's currently available in the edit mode.
-The weird interaction of the EditText and the links will be fixed by only having the links active when in the "reading" mode as discussed in the last comment.
-Definitely want to do a nicer theme at some point. Would your preference be to make it look good first, or work good first? I want to get the basic functionality down, but I'm also anxious to pretty it up.
Oh, and hold off on the minor grievances for now Got to tackle the big stuff first.

[APP] Clipboard + Notes 6.3.1 [04/05/2016]
Clipboard + Notes is a simple clipboard manager which watches your clipboard for any changes and saves its contents for later use. Contents can be starred and labelled, as well as added manually, which makes the app a handy tool for note taking.
The contents from the clipboard history can be copied into the clipboard again, they can be edited, deleted, searched, and shared too. When sharing links they can be optionally shortened if URLy is installed. Any links in the contents will be quickly picked up and extra options will be available to open or share them directly from the device. HTTP and Market links are amongst the supported types.
Clipboard + Notes can be easily turned off from the settings if it is no longer needed, and its operation can be customised to match the user's needs. The clipboard collection is intelligently stopped when the device isn't being used any more, which makes it very battery-friendly.
In addition it integrates with the Android Quick Search Bar so you can directly search your clipboard history. It further integrates with Google's cloud backup and restore, so any time you wipe your device your contents and settings will be restored the next time you install the application (only works on Android 2.3+ and backup/restore must be enabled in the 'Privacy' settings for your device).
A little extra hand is at help too in case you would like to share to clipboard. The app supports this functionality as well, so just pick something to share, and select Clipboard + Notes from the window. The item you just shard will now have been copied into the clipboard.

OK, will do it sometime during the week. I already have the two other features done, just testing them on my own device.
Thanks for the support
Version 1.2 is out, changes include:
Clipboard history will be saved across reboots and service shutdowns
Edit clipboard contents
Added date to older contents
Added fallback click option
Numerous bug fixes
Enjoy
P.S. Would it be helpful if the text which is currently in the clipboard was highlighted, for example the font was bold or text bigger? It is always at the top in the list, but not sure if that makes sense/occurs to everyone.
Hy I like your Tool. I look long time ago to find something like this.
There is one problem I recognized, sometimes when I press Copy Link it happen nothing in Clipboard Contents. Then I switch off & on the service and my Link is displaying in the History !

Hi, glad you like it
So let me understand this correctly. You have some items in the list, you long-click on one of them (not the top one), click copy to clipboard and nothing happens in the list? What should happen is that the one you copied should be moved to the top of the list. What happens when you click on 'Refresh'? Same thing as when you turn the service off and on, or is it different?
I've never had this issue happen to me so I'm just trying to understand whether there are some particular steps which make it happen. Anyway, I'll take a look at the code, but any extra information would be helpful. Thanks.
No, not like this. I want to copy an item to the List and nothing happens. Then I switch off and on the service ones a time then the copy works !!!

OK, I understand now... I think
The problem is that the service refreshes every X seconds, depending on how you have it set in the settings. If you copy something and open the list, the service might not have refreshed yet and therefore the item won't appear in the list. If you know you copied something and it's not there you should just hit the 'Refresh' button and it should appear, that's the reason why I put it there.
OK Thanks,
Version 1.3 is out with the following changes:
Links without 'http://' will be now detected
Added confirmation upon content deletion
Current clipboard content gets highlighted in bold
Text size for the list can be changed (see the settings)
Older items will be automatically removed (see the settings)
Many other fixes
Up on the Market and in the first post.
Why does a Clipboard app need "Full Internet access"?

OK. I think it is somewhat annoying that there isn't a separate permission for ad-only internet access, as that would probably make users more trustful of applications which request permissions that may have nothing to do with the app's functionality (such as this one).

I was thinking exactly the same thing.
Some people may think that this is a dead application, but nope. I still have plans for it, but not enough time at the moment Anyway, here is the version 1.4 update:
Added support for shortening links using URLy when sharing them (only if URLy is installed)
Fixed a couple of small bugs
Tiny tweaks to the user interface
Simplified English localisation
New APK is in the OP and also on the Market. Enjoy.
Version 2.0 is out, with the following changes (many of which have been promised for a longer time):
New user interface
Restore clipboard at boot
Improved communication with the service
Persistent storage improved
Contents can be manipulated when the service is disabled
Integrated with Android's Quick Search Bar
Get it on the Market or in the OP (still free with ads)
Version 2.1.0 is out, in the usual places. Here are the changes;
Fixed list items too small
Fixed double notifications
Fixed clipboard erasure detection
Fixed status bar icon to match UI guidelines
Added cloud backup/restore for Android 2.2 and newer (must be enabled in device Settings -> Privacy)
On a side note, the cloud backup/restore service which Google provides for Android applications is rather cool. It's really simple to implement and use, so here's to hoping that more developers will include this feature in their applications
Everywhere Clipboard extends Android clipboard function and brings real desktop clipboard experience to you on mobile phone. Everywhere Clipboard is a Windows Office style clipboard panel which records copied items into a history stack. In addition to that, the clipboard panel can be opened anywhere in any application without the need to leave your current window or switch to different windows. To bring up the panel, just click on a tiny trigger icon located at the edge of your screen and the panel will expand. Brought to you by the same Dev who made Smart Taskbar and Button Savior.
If you are a serious email or note taking user like me, you might find it improve your overall productivity a lot because there is no more app switching back and forth for simple text copy and paste action.

Features
☆ Instant on, always available clipboard panel
☆ Manage content to copy from files/folders
☆ Built in note editor for quick file creation

Is there any way I can invoke this from Smart Taskbar? I'm a Pro user and like the idea but would prefer to have a way to pop up Smart Taskbar and quickly select Everywhere Clipboard so it overlays the original app (the one that was active when I activated STB). Does that make sense?
tks
great
another kiumiu style app. i'd like to have the pro version.
~
Great idea, didn't know it could be done
Makes getting to your clipboard very easy. I have never seen something done that way, honestly would not of though it was possible (floating the icon off to the side everywhere?!). As a dev I am trying to wrap my brain around how you accomplished that. That is pretty damn cool. If you have a blog I would love to read about it.
On a side note, the xda article Enjoy Copy and Paste The Way it was Meant to be... states this: "With this new app, you can copy text from any app in your device". You didn't really say that in the market description and I wasn't able to copy and paste from apps like Facebook or Twitter unless they already allow it. I think some people might think find what xda has said a little confusing. Then again I could be wrong about all of this and it's just not working on my device DroidX 2.3. Let me know.
Thanks!
I just bought thee app. I don't have much time to test right now.
Please add an option to disable the message in the notification area.
I've been using andclip as my clipboard manager.
I like Everywhere Clipboard better for the always available "trigger" popup...But andclip has an option to allow you to manually enter entries, whereas I don't see such an option with EC.
I could just open some text editor and type in entries and select->copy as a workaround, but if EC could be updated to include this feature native...I'd definitely make the switch from the other app and buy EC.
Thanks!
Some more feedback:
- Can you please make the settings accessible via the popup? Having to go to the apps list and find 'clipboard' everytime I need to make changes is annoying
- Have a 'Permanent' items tab (or maybe integrate into the 'notes' tab?) so I can freely clear out any "junk" in the 'clipboard' tab, but still have all my important items available without having to re-add them.
- Move the enable/disable message into 'Ongoing' notifications...This way it's not taking up space on the notification bar, but it's still available via notifications pulldown
Sorry if it seems I'm pestering, but I'm very much liking EC's popup clipboard and want to make the switch...Just needs a little tweaking and I'm there.

Will this work within the native email program on a Droid X?

I am not sure if i understand this clearly but I think EC has this feature also (manually delete clipboard entries) in current version. But you have to do that in EC's main window, not in the quick panel. So you have to switch to the main app window to do all kind of micro management jobs. I will also try my best to make quick panel able to do some item/file management features.
O!M!F!G! How could I live without this wonderful app?!
Thank you VERY much!

Hi,
There are many windowParams in Android. With propery param combination, you can make popup like the one in my app.
Very nice app! Just bought the Pro version.
Would it be possible to add an option to clear clipboard automatically after a certain time?
I am using KeePassDroid and it has option to clear copied data from clipboard after specified time, but it appears that this data would not clear itself from Everywhere Clipboard.
If it's not possible to integrate this functionality between apps, adding own clear timer to Everywhere Clipboard would be nice.
Thanks!
yes the 'anywhere' is misleading.
you cant copy text from anywhere, infact i cant find a place that will copy text any differently than the normal select/copy text.
so for me, this is kinda pointless at this moment because 99% of the time i need to copy text from someplace that doesnt normally allow text to be copied.
i mean any place with text that is not embedded, like an image.
V1.1 updated on July 20, 2011
Fixed:
(1) Incorrect popup location when trigger side is set to left
(2) Removed a trailing linefeed when copy from txt
(3) Fixed Pause button trigger area wider than displayed.
Sorry guys. I forgot to add the toast notification once again !
Will do it few days later
hi jerryfan I was not able to paste the copied text with this app i tried everything is it possible or not
or it is just a history recorder of copied text
Hi!
So, here it is, my first Android app
What does it do?
Upload images to 666kb.com
What's 666kb.com?
A very simple image hoster like picasa, yfrog and hundreds of others.
Check it out: http://666kb.com/
So why 666kb.com?
Because it's simple and basic. probably as simple, basic and bare as an image hoster ever will be.
- no login
- no html around the hosted images. (hence no spammy ads)
- hard to guess urls, and no ability to browse images, so the link is the only way to get the image
just try it out and you will see what I mean.
I have nothing to do with 666kb.com, I'm just a user, so please don't bother the maintainers of it with issues regarding the app.
And what does the app do?
have a picture, share it, select 666up!...
the image is scaled down (if >666kb) and uploaded to 666kb.com.
once done you can give it a title, copy the link to the image to the clipboard, share it with the usual android sharing facility or just leave it be.
a record of all uploaded images is saved on the phone for later use.
If you launch the app, you'll see a list of previously uploaded images.
What are the use cases?
- sharing images the easy way via gtalk or other IM services.
- sharing images via SMS/txt
where I live one usually gets about 1000 SMS per month for free, but they charge a lot for MMS. So it saves money (given the recipient has internet access on the phone)

Suggestions are of course welcome. I don't make any money with this. I developed it in my free time just because I felt the need for it. Oh, and this thread is the first form of advertisement for the app.

2012-03-03: Fixed broken apk
just realized that the apk I had on the market was broken.
Reason why it was broken:
I found a typo in the strings.xml file right after I uploaded a prior version.
I corrected the typo, exported an unsigned apk, signed it and uploaded it without testing (I know! I know!).
So, what happened was:
Eclipse somehow failed to generate those R classes and just packaged the apk without them. This is why the app failed to launch :-(
I didn't notice that because I kept using the version with the typo.
Sorry guys!
This surely qualifies as an epic fail .
New Version: ICS look, nicer thumbnails and fixed some FCs
well, 0.2.1 is out.
Whats new?
Using Holo theme on ICS.
Thumbnails are now generated according to your device's screen resolution.
Which means: nicer thumbnails on hdpi (or better) devices.
Finally got rid of all those FCs that could occur if the uploads failed and the screen is turned.
have fun!
this is great! thanks a bunch!! any possibility of adding other image hosts in the future? i usually use imageshack, and i'm sure other people have their own favourites as well. either way, this really makes it a lot simpler to post images online and you did a great job making this app fast, great looking, and most importantly, functional! looking forward to future updates - it can only get better from here
is the devil the sponsor for this app?
Well, not quite the devil. I adopted the name from the website. Which got the name from the size limit for the images. iirc, it started with 256kb.com and has meanwhile evolved to 666kb.com
But I can guarantee that the only sponsor of this app is my own curiosity about making an android app and the fact, that I felt the need for such an app and there was none. So no unholy stuff going on in the source code.. I leave this to my perl programs ;-)
I also did a small batch upload script in perl which resizes the images if they are too large, uploads them and prints the urls to the console. (I'll share it if someone is interested)
Thanks for the kind words, Bloodflame. I have multiple upload-site in mind, but most of the bigger ones already have apps. so there little need for another app unless of course all existing apps are bad and better one could be done. There is one for imageshack:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.codeminders.imageshackdroid
next in line is probably something to upload multiple images at once.
and I should address the issue, that the detail view is partly hidden when the device is held in a landscape position. maybe a scrollbar or a different layout for landscape.
Just released a new version
I've also transformed my second post into a version history post, please refer to this for details on changes.
I did a rather big change under the hood:
Including Android Beam support and exif based image rotation brakes compatibility with old android versions. So, I made 3 different APKs and uploaded them altogether.
One is specifically for Android 1.6.
Play store statistics say, there is exactly one install for this app on a 1.6 device.
So, if you have this app on a 1.6 device, I did about an hour of modification an testing just for you! ;-)
1.6 doesn't support the ExifInterface and it isn't available with the compatibility package. Therefore, no image rotation for you.
This also applies to Android Beam.
Another version for 2.0 to 3.2.
It is just missing the Android Beam feature.
And the last one for 4.0 and upwards.
I'm not yet sure how easy it is to maintain 3 versions of the app (even with git). So I'm not sure how the support of older devices will look like in the future. But I will try to keep this as backwards compatible as possible.
I have spent the last 3 or 4 days trying to find an generic image uploading app. Would you ever consider making a version that could post to a user configurable URL? And I guess a user configurable regex for the reply?
Perfect it's work fine
Thank you

This is not as straight forward as it may look like in the first place because uploads are done via a POST request. Normal URLs indicate a GET request.
If you are curious what's going on, have a look at this source file:
https://github.com/qorron/666up/blob/master/up666/src/org/qless/up666/ImageUploader.java#L119
starting with line: 119
But I'm sure that I can do this. The regex is no problem of course.
I'm on vacation until Sept. so please have a little patience. If it's ok for you I'll write you a massage once I have hacked together something.
POST is fine, I have a 30 odd line python script that handles upload already for me. I just need a app that can post and that shows up in androids share drop down list.
bump
How was your vacation?
It was fine, thanks!
The app is not quite ready yet.
The upload mechanism accepts parameter for the url and all the additional post fields.
But there is no GUI yet to type it all in.
I'll contact you once it works.
So.. I've done it.
desclaimer: this poat addresses people with at least some background in webscraping and regular rxpressions.
the apk attaches here is not intended to be used by normal users. it contains bugs and maybe cause the world to end, so be careful.
hello weedy2887,
please excuse the long delay. I had a terrible car accident (which I luckily survived without any harm) and needed some time to recover and manage things and stuff..
I've attached the apk below.
there are some bugs and unfinished stuff in it, so please use it with caution!
bugs:
if you press the buttons in the actionBar in the upload-screen while the upload has not yet finished you will get an empty message or the app will crash.
some
unfinished:
there are no sanity checks or error handling regarding the configurable upload-site feature.
e.g. if you enter an invalid regex or something like that, the app will crash.
there is no "reset to defaults (666kb.com)" button.
limitations:
apk is for android 4+
here is a short description on how this works:
base url:
Code:
http://666kb.com/u.php
this is where the action= attribute of the form points to.
file param
Code:
f
this is the name of the file parameter
additional param:
Code:
MAX_FILE_SIZE 681984
submit Speichern
these are other static parameters that are submitted along the file.
parameter_name<space>data<newline(enter, return,..)>
note: the last line is:
submit<space><space>Speichern<space><newline>
the paraneters are being sent in the order they are written in this string.
duplicates are possible and are not collapsed into one.
regex
Code:
(\Qhttp://666kb.com/i/\E.*?)"
this is to find the url of the uploaded image.
it has to contain exactly one capture group which designates the exact url of the image.
these are all the site dependent parameters.
it works for the 666kb.com site.
I haven't had the chance to test it with an other site because the only other site simmilar to 666kb.com I knew (777kb.com[1]) seems to be down or gone completely. so there may be some things which I have forgotten.
[1] 777kb.com was a copycat of 666kb.com with the difference: 777kb max. image size. images are deleted after there was no access for 30 days.
META WIDGET
Meta is a unique app that can turn virtually any online content into dynamic, interactive widgets.
Simply browse to a website, pick a column of text, link or image and enjoy this information right on your home screen!
Why is this cool you ask? Because almost anything can be parsed out of a website - images, blogrolls, RSS feeds or entire windows.
Any widget created through Meta can be customized and automatically updated, or updated on user interaction.
Features
★ Create widgets from almost any website element
★ Parse graphs and images
★ Extract statistics and information from authorized sites
★ Configure widgets (background, alignment, etc.)
★ Automatic updates
★ User defined click actions
★ Lots of other cool stuff
Status
The app is currently quite stable, but we still prefer to call it a beta. So please, do write to us with suggestions or bug reports!
Play Store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.metawidget
The free app has everything but automatic updates. Please buy the Key - that would help us a lot

Widget Maker
We also make a companion app called Widget Maker. It allows you to staple together many widgets, including Meta Widgets:

Someone else said this was a problem... though we havent been able to replicate it. Does this happen on all sites? Also, which site are you referring to?
I've only tried the one so far http://www.eos-magazine-forum.com/index.php

Hmm... i just tried on three devices (hc, ics, cm9) and the keyboard pops up fine when clicking the login field.
Can you please try another site? Or maybe a reboot? We use the webkit browser and its not flawless so the keyboard hiding we do at first run may be screwing with it.
Lets see if we can fix this for you.
1.0.2.1
Fixed keyboard issue present on some phones
Fixed image cache optimization (much faster now)
Fixed a rendering issue that occurs if data connection is lost
Fixed a few device-specific issues from user feedback
Nice idea, like it. But how do i prevent making a list view from content?

This is awesome. Tried to make some widgets, but i don't have so much ideas. Anyway the keyboard sometimes don't work, i must exit and start again, and sometimes back button doesn't go to previous page but exit the widget config. A possible overall preview would be nice(maybe full screen preview) since i make some changes and don't know how the widget will look. Another thing that i noticed is that when i select an element, in selection section it shows on center and nice aligned on every row, but when i put it on homescreen it's just one row after another. Here it's an e.g:
Selection:
---------
###
---------
**
Homescreen:
-------###------**
Also would be possible to take whole div, not only an element from that? I tried to take a div that contains some text and an image, but only the text was selected. This is a nice piece of work, keep up the good work.

Hi. Thanks. If you like it, please leave a comment on the play store - at this early junction good reviews will help us spend more time making things better
Regarding the preview - its in the works, though it is pretty complex to do. We will use our Prepaid Widget as a template, so you can have a look at that if you want a a preview of how thew preview will look...
Re many elements. ATM its only possible to select one at a time. We are working on an internal launcher which will allow you to move all the elements around. Its slated for release this month.

Review added on market. This would be huge, if you can implement multiple elements. Select one, two ore w/e elements and move them around, awesome!
Just something that i forgot to ask, sometimes it takes up to 150MB RAM, usually 50~60MB isn't a bit much?
Pretty awesome app. I can't for the kufe of me figure out how to set the widget on my desktop. I assume I need the paid app. Most likely user error I'm just dumb lol.

It's a widget. Long press on homescreen, search for MetaWidget and start configure it:
- Enter a website, select an element(click on it then use the arrows from bottom to select between multiple elements)
!!! make sure you have the checkbox from bottom-left ticked !!!
- Click on the plus sign near the ticked box to select that element and go to widget preference screen.
- Configure the text alignment, size, background color, w/e...
- Click OK , select widget size then select OK again, and you'r done.

We will implement multiple elements soon when our widget constructor comes out. Within two weeks the beta will be up.
Re ram - this is because of images. And of course the cache of the webkit browser, which once closed is shunted out of ram.
On modern devices this isnt a problem though...

@swiftinmotion - Check out my previous post, i've rewrite it and added some pics.
FeedEx News Reader is a light, modern, totally free (no ads) and opensource project which keeps you inform by fetching your websites/blogs and displaying them in a mobile-optimized way. It is based on the "Sparse rss" reader and is able to read RSS/Atom feeds.
It DO NOT synchronizes with any online feed reader, but do you really need feeds synchronization now you always have your phone with you?
Features:
- easily add new feeds thanks to the finders or subscribe to a new one from the browser via the share feature
- offline reading including images
- import/export the feed list from OPML
- retrieve the full text of the feed when the content is truncated
- star your favorite entries
- filter your feed by keywords or regular expressions
- custom widget
Feedly users: you can export your feeds to OPML at this address (cloud.feedly.com/#opml) and then import them into FeedEx News Reader.
Any help would be very appreciated!

Here is a link for folk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.fred.feedex
Thanks for your work.
Thanks, I like this
I like the modern design and the dark theme.
A request ... In the widgets, it would be good if the user could choose the number of lines to display per item of news. To clarify, I'd like to see the main news item in bold at a user defined size along with maybe a line or two (as opted by me) of the news details. The headline alone does not allow me to understand if the item is worth opening. To get an idea of the look of the widget I intend, look at Scrollable news widget
Another thing is ... to keep in line with the latest Gmail, remove the refresh button and let the user pull down to refresh.
Cheers
Hi!
Sorry for the late answer, with the holidays I forgot it
Concerning the widget, I agree there is lot of improvements to do. This is not my priority because I would like to add some features to the application before (search, tablet support), but I'll do it and make FeedEx News Reader better and better, I just need time
Great app, thank you for this. I give you five stars in Play Store. Finally i can get rid of annoying feedly.
I have a question, though: how does exclusion filter work? Tried to apply it to some feed, seems not to work or i can't understand something. Let me explain. I read some russian news site called Mignews. The problem with them is that they don't post sport news in separate feed, and i totally uninterested in sport news. Every sport-related entry has a title starting with 'MIGsport:' and the actual title after it, so i thought i can filter these entries out by entering MIGsport: and checking «Apply to title», but these entries are still there. I am doing something wrong or don't understand the purpose of filtering?
Thanks for the stars I'm glad to see that some people really like FeedEx.
Concerning your issue, I think the filter is working but you have to know that it's effective only on futur news. The already downloaded news are kept, even if they match with the filter.
Can you confirm me that?
Well, I understand. Let me check it for couple of hours and I'll report back.

Ok, if it's does not work, then there is chances that there is a bug inside FeedEx
I don't think it's a bug, let's wait and see. I set the app to auto-refresh every 30 minutes. What I'm going to do is to compare my timeline in FeedEx with desktop reader and my girlfriend's one. This way I'll know for sure. Will report my results later today.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
OK, tested and filtering works for newly downloaded entries! Thanks a lot!
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
You're welcome.
I agree it's a little confusing, I should explain this somewhere into the app
Thank you for your application, it is very convenient! Tell me, are there plans to make a list of feeds foldable and add the ability to reduce the font in the "news"? On my Note2 they look very big.
Hi!
Sorry for the late answer
Concerning the possibility to fold the feeds, I was possible before but not today. I remove it to allow to clic on a group and to have more simplicity into the navigation drawer. For my use, the folding feature is still present into the feed edit screen to allow to move them easily into groups.
So I'm sorry but there is currently no plans for adding it again.
And concerning the font size can you post a screenshot or explain where exactly do you find the font too big?
Hi HoloAddict!
Nice program, thanks for your excellent work. By the looks of it, the only developing standalone RSS feed reader with offline mode on the market.
Some feature suggestions for this app:
- would be nice to be able to configure font and font size. I find current font the program uses is a bit inconvenient for my eyes. I would prefer the one used by gReader. But others may like the current font. Would be nice to have it configurable.
- would be nice to have per-channel settings for number of items and item expiration. Would also be nice to be able to prevent unread items from being automatically cleared (but still clear the read ones).
- would be nice to have channel groups collapsing and expanding in the channel list - this would save space in the channel list and optimise it's navigation.
- buttons "Show original text" and "See in browser" in the article reading mode - can you make them smaller or move to the header row? Or at least make this option configurable? For short articles they take half of the screen
- would be nice to have "back" button to return you from article list to channel list, and not quit the program (this might be personal. I just got used to this hierarchy: channel list --> article list --> article).
Apart from that - great app, thanks for your work!

You're the second one who tell me this. I personnally prefer the one use by feedex (otherwise I would not have choose it ), I believe it's less tiring. Do other people think as darsh?

It was like this before, but I changed my mind to keep simplicity (code and UI) and allow some actions like clicking on a group. Moreover I used group collapsing especially for feed sorting, not for reading it everyday.

I do not understood this one... Why the size of these buttons is a problem ? They are always at the bottom of the text.

You're not the only one to ask me this. I could do it but this is against the android principle of a navigation drawer. Look at the gmail app, the back button doesn't open the drawer. And if I do like you said, I can't quit the app with the back button... Moreover, the back button should do what it's aimed for: going back, not open a menu.
@HoloAddict: Actually, I wanted to ask for same: to place «Retrieve the full text» and «See in browser» buttons side by side. It looks better and more «polished» and takes less place.

Side by side? I agree it would be better but I'm affraid there won't be enought width on lot of phone to be able to do that...
Nice App
@HoloAddict thanks for this App. I´m using youre feed reader now for a week and it´s really nice. Only thing missing for me atm is to switch filter from exclusion to inclusion because there are some feeds where I would prefer to get only news for filtered terms. :good: :good: :good:
