Looks pretty good

Hope you can have pricing similar to iphone apps of $1 ? *wishful thinking?*
It would be a definite buy if you can do something similar to bloomberg portfolio tracker.
I am accessing that currently from opera and the whole portfolio fits into the screen in landscape mode perfectly
I buy shares in Hongkong, Singapore, Australia and denominate them in Singapore dollars.

Hi wj888,
The app is currently on the UK marketplace for £3.19 . It has similar functionality to the bloomberg portfolio tracker, but it looks like my information has been spread over two main screens instead one wide landscape screen. I dont record the purchase date or the % portfolio but everything else is the same. These two changes I could make relatively easily.
The stocks that you can access are limited to what is available on the yahoo finance website, due to that being the underlying data source.
Thanks for your post.

works great (hd2), thanks a lot

Is it possible for you to add a feature where the data source could be pulled from somewhere else? Some of my stocks are not available on the yahoo finance website (Helsinki, Oslo, Stockholm Exchanges)

Hi there it may prove to be a bit difficult since I may end up with a situation of one data source per stock exchange but I will investigate.
Thanks.

Would be extremely useful if end-users can actually choose their data source from a list of sources. A working version with me a green YES for me

Not working on my Tilt 2 ?
I purchased and downloaded the software from marketplace.The application opens, I go to share finder to search stock tickers and add to portfolio.Finds ticker symbols fine
It shows items were added to portfolio.I go back to main poage and none of my stocks show up.I try to EDIT PORTFOLIO or Valuation but they are greyed out.
Quotes delayed is permanently at the bottom.
When I explore the stocks.xml file it is blank.
Am I missing something obvious?
Does PUSH INTERNET need to be enabled?
I disabled the Push Internet feature from my phone to save sys resources.
Thanks
Ron

Clicking refresh in the bottom left hand corner should update your portfolio for you.

Hi Tony
Not sure why post didnt make it.I am
to search stocks,add to portfolio but hit the BACK button and there are no stocks displayed for the portfolio. So refresh does nothing.
Perhaps bad download from markeplace.Is their still a trial one to download.Not sure if there is still going to be another problem

Hello all. i can't find this app. on marketplace !!!

I'd like to be able to trial this software but it doesn't seem to work. Past the evaluation date, perhaps?
May I suggest you post a trial version so people like me can test before purchase?
Thanks!

Doesn't seem to offer a lot more than the built-in stock tracker.
Graphs would be great. (Like TinyStocks)
Multiple portfolios would be very wecome. (Again like TinyStocks.)
Think I'll stick with the latter for now but I really like the interface. Best of luck!

Hi Knobhead, thanks for your feedback and enhancement list, which I will try and take on board when porting the app to WinMo 7. The U.S.P of the app is to allow you to track your investment exposure to your equity portfolio on a single share basis or across your entire stock holdings.
I will take a look at Tiny stocks and do some gap analysis. Cheers

Watch your money, my app to make you save money :)

Hey members of XDA-DEVELOPERS!
Let me introduce my app.
What's this app for ?
This APP allow you to keep an eye on your incomes/outcomes and so you'll keep an eye on your current balance (not REAL balance but ESTIMATED balance).
As everyone knows, when you pay something, it's not directly debited on your account, and thats why you can easily go under the "0" threshold.
With this app, no need to worry, just check the notification which tells you how much is 'normaly' left on your account !
An account app ? Again ?
Well, yes but I made this one to be CLEAR, PRECISE and CONCISE !
Nothing not usefull will be or has been added.
And plus ! Since I'm still developping it, propose stuff and it'll be added !
That's a great oppotunity, forge your own desire onto the application !
Help me develop it, show me what people can do when thinking together !
What does it looks like ?
Check out on the market, or wait a few for me to upload some screens
On what does it run ?
Millestone 2.1,
Nexus 1 in 2.1,
Hero with beHero 2.1,
Liquid in 2.1
and Legend 2.1 at the moment.
Still, the app is compatible with all device from 1.6 to 2.1.
A big amount of features are comming soon :
- Notification icon color change on a thrshold,
- Multi account,
- Widget,
- Data export for PC based view with Excell,
- Compatibility with the android calendar (?!)
- AND MORE !
Submit your idea, let me develop your envy !!!
Where do I find this ?
"Watch your money" on the market.
Let me improve your lifestyle ! Try, adopt, submit idea !
Stay clear, stay cool ! Save money
Thanks !

Donate version :

place apk here, plz. wanna test. is it freeware or...?

Yes it is a freeware, although a donate version exist as well.
I'll try to upload the apk somwhere, but you should be able to get it on the market

at least place qr code here, market search for tattoo is quite useless

Tested for a couple of minutes. Too poor functionality. Only one account (cash, I suppose), only one currency. Look at Financisto app and try to release smth like that.

nice app..... 4 starts... make UI more rich looking....
[feature request] - add in settings monthly income credited like salary on user defined date which will eliminate the hassle to enter the amount every month/week and also some common outgoing money pre set

Too poor... well that's what you say... I didn't hear TOO POOR but QUITE SIMPLE TO USE
Anyways... check out my version and compare it to the Financisto version (Version 1.3.5).
I do not want to make APPS that looks like other.
Here, with this APP i want to do something pretty simple, no HARDCORE functions.
I want it to be : Easy, Clear, Pretty
Thanks chowdarygm, Yes, this feature is in preparation
I'll add it ASAP

that's better
but still there's support of several accounts needed.
You know, I've got an idea. Better try to make a credit calculator for credit cards. There should be: total sum of credit, spent sum, annual %, comissions for serving the card (decimal), comissions for serving the account (per cent monthly), minimal monthly payment (fixed sum or percentage counted from spent sum of credit), total sum of debt (including all % and comissions)
I'd like to have such an app and can help in consulting (for Russian banks)

Hehe Thats some ideas !
I've updated the app, a few bugs fixed like disabling the notification, forcing langage etc...
Comming soon :
- Recurrent Outgoings/Incomes (ver. 0.5),
- Widget ! (0.6 i suppose).

ChemicalMoon said:
- Widget ! (0.6 i suppose).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
test it @ 240*320 screen res, some apps show very ugly widgets at these screens.

It'll be some kind of "clean" widget you know... Nothing really extravagant
Something simple which allows you to have a look on your account from your HOME ;-)

App update !
Now in version 0.5 :
--- Now support recurrent incomes/outgoings,
--- a few bugs have been fixed.
Next version (big) : WIDGET !!! (it'll be 0.6).

Can you change the currency from euros to dollars?

Yes, the currency is coming soon
In the version 0.5.1.
This version will also fix the FC when pressing back on the recurent activity

New version available !
Now version 0.5.4. What's new ?
New app icon,
New notification icon folowing your currency,
Now export your data .CSV format (compatible excell) !

Seems nice project, but I stoped search for a financial app for android, because no one have the future to import accounts from other programs(at least csv or qif format). I already use a fincnce program on pc for 2-3 years now. In windows mobile platform the most of that kind of apps have this ability, so was easy to import my accound, and to sync them with pc's app also. I don't understand why in Android there isn't any. The most of these I tried(around 10) have only csv export. It is so difficult?
I hope and suggest to add this future, I think that is very important for this kind of apps. And also multilanguage support, for correct displaying of non latin characters.
Also a localization of your app would be nice. I could do the greek translation, if you add this future.
Anyway I will try it for sure, but I hope that you will add the above futures, so to can realy use it too.
Thanks.
EDIT:
Hey, I cannot find it on market. Doesn' t appear on androlib too.

Hey !
New update ! Now support android >= 1.5 !!!
I'll take a look at QIF format
And for the greek version, why not ! If you could translate everything and send it to me i'd be glad to add this.
And I DO export CSV.
I'll try to IMPORT data too
As you can see this app is only in 0.5.X version. which means I'm still developping !
Now named :
Watch your money

I still cannot find watch your money on market or androlib.
Can you upload the apk here?
For translation I haven't try the probram yet. I' ll need all english texts.
I will start as soon as you give them to me.
I hope that you add import future soon.
EDIT:
Found it via extended search on androlib in Italian market.
Can you put it and on other languages markets?

Hey, Here are the QR codes
Free vresion:
Donate version :

That doesn't help man.
Your app is only in Italian UK and Japan(only donate version) markets, as I can see from androlib.com
So, it isn't in main search but appears only in extended search and only in above markets.
My device cannot see these market. The QR codes open market and point to your app address, which market on my device doesn't see.
So please, upload the apk here, or put it and the other languages markets or slideme or someware that can be accessible.
Thanks in advance.

[APP] Moody - Moodle Web Client

Development news:
In the last week my laptop suffer a fall. At the moment I'm unable to release an update, I think in the next month I will be able to release another major update with the critical bugs fixed. I hope in that time more Universities will have moody service activated. Until there I'm working to have more and more institutions working with Moody and trying to convince Moodle.org to enable a web service with all the required functions by default, it will be better for all.
Also in the next month Moody dev team will have a new member and with is help we will be able to do more and better.
If your Moodle Server it's not supported please fill this doc with the URL/Admin e-mail so i can contact the admin to provide acess to Moody
Moodle Not Working DOC
You can test if the moody_service is active in your Moodle in any broswer with this link:
YOUR_MOODLE_URL/login/token.php?username=YOUR_USERNAME&password=YOUR_PASSWORD&service=moody_service
If a token is returned it's everything is alright
If the returned message contains "servicenotavailable" please fill the doc.
It also can return a message saying the username/password is incorrect, please be sure that user/password are right
Moody is a android open-source application for the Moodle e-learning platform.
Moody will be our main access to the Moodle e-learning platform, but it was also thought to be our best friend, the one who will help us with every school matter. The desired idea is Moody to be known as a friend and not a resource. Therefore, it will have access to the Moodle content, show us the information in a user friendly environment and notify about new developments in our important and favorite subjects.
Features:
- Native Android application
- Open source UI themes and completely customizable
- Free
- Access to courses while offline
Requirements:
- Moodle >= 2.2
- Android >= 3.0.x
- Internet connection
- Warning: Not all functions are available in Moodle 2.2, for better experience we recommend Moodle >= 2.5
- Moody service enabled in the Moodle Server
How it works:
The client sends a user name and password to the web service login script.
The script returns a token for that user account.
The client calls a particular web service function on a protocol server including the token .
The protocol server uses the token to check that the user can call the function.
The protocol server call the matching external function, located in a externallib.php file inside the relevant module.
The external function checks that the current user has_capability to do this operation.
The external function calls the matching Moodle core function (in lib.php usually).
The core function can return a result to the external function.
The external function will return a result to the protocol server.
The protocol server returns the result to the client.
What Moody can do:
- Moody is able to get all the contents of your courses
- Notify you about new contents in your favorites
- Add your courses to your favorites
- Get the latest contents from all of your courses
- Search in your courses
- Send messages to contacts
- Edit profile picture

I know that and i accept the critics but Moody it's a catchy name but i admit it's not suggestive i will review the name but it's hard, and if the community wants to help i accept suggestions, for the moment Moody will be the name for the alpha and beta versions thanks for the comments the community opinion it's important for me

Far beyond what's the name of the app, this is very useful for my academic life!! Thanks!

I created an account on Moodle, but do not know how to get the URL, if anyone can help me .. I thank

My school uses moodle, but when I try to log in I get "Error: authentication"...
http://moodle.pakuranga.school.nz seems to be fine, no invalid URL errors.
Any ideas? Moodle's great for accessing class resources and so on, and my school's own app is... lacklustre (not to mention designed like iOS in every way).
EDIT: I just read the bug list... lol. I guess you could put the S3 as one of the affected devices...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

Also getting invalid URL for https://moodle.cs.man.ac.uk, on the nexus 5.

invalid url nexus 4
invalid url moodle.ritchennai.net

https://moodle2.unizar.es/add doesn't work. Authentication fails, but official Moodle App works.
Is source code available?

Hi, it seems to be an amazing app but it gives to me url error, the url is http://moodle.upm.es and uses moodle 2.4, any solution for the error?

Can't access https://moodle.ufsc.br... It returns me authentication error, problems with the url etc... There's nothing wrong with the url. I've tested on Moodle official app (which sucks, btw. I've never used it before...) and everything went fine.

Same for me! "Error in Authentication service - Webservice isn't availible (Either doesn't exist or is blocked)". Official Moodle app works, but sucks. If read in the OP that Moody Service needs to be enabled, is it causing this error?

[APP] Latest News [28.10.2017]

Hi all,
I've made a super simple app for reading news using news-api. It shows sources (groupped by categories). So in short, app can:
Add xml feeds sources to the app
Show each source latest news
Show a preview of news (with basic Share and Open in browser options)
Tries to fetch the full content of the news including images
Show latest news of Favorite sourcess
Shows you a bookmarked list or articles
Download on Google Play Store: Latest News

TODO:
optimization everything for the tablet devices
select preferred language
Thank you for being an alpha tester. Please keep in mind that...
I'm opened for requests/ideas
I'll even fix any bugs you find!
Will change the name of the app to something better, since "latest news" will return at least 3029482093480 items when using search on google play store.

Gregor :good:

Rollout of new release has started:
Version 0.0.1 build 6
- Improved speed of scrolling in Favorites list and News of Source
- Implemented the grabber system which fetches the whole article and parse possible text of article including images (this is alpha of alpha app!)

Nice app, can you please add CBC News (Canadian Broadcasting Company)?

Thank you for your feedback. One of the next major improvements to app will be possibility of adding custom news pages. I will try me best to add it as soon as possible :good:

@paed808 & others
next release brings adding custom news sources:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

Another huge update being rolled out today: Custom feeds!
There's been lots of refactoring, small fixes and improvements, but the biggest thing is finally implemented. Adding custom feeds. Just add the url of the news page or direct feed url (example http://www.cbc.ca/news), select a category and hope for the best!
Feel free to report any bugs you find.

After some release-break, here's yet another one. This has been an amazing month with a-lot of effort going towards development. Started as a simple newsapi client, I've got a few requests for which, I was sure it will take a while to implement them all. Since today, Latest News includes:
- a superb wizard just to remind you its beginner friendly,
- revamped source adding, which doesn't relly on newsapi anymore but uses own methods to fetch xml feeds and parse the data,
- super awesome grabber(tm), which downloads and parses the whole article from the websites, removes everything except the text story and images.
- an awesome back-end synchronization, which makes sure, your sources are always safe,
- and increadible new and redesigned menu (yea, this deserves a place on the list too!) and extra animations
It has been an awesome month.
Now, its up to people to start using it

Another update has been pushed to beta channel:
- added feeds Gruenderszene, NBA, JS weekly, Android Police, XDA-developers, Mac Rumors
- update sync so it will now handle a conflict between different remote/local entries; you will now have options to overwrite local, db or merge both,
- added read flag to article after it has been read.
- fixed the issue with images not being overwritten after refreshing the articles
- fixed the width of items which text isn't long,
- synchronizing favorites should now also work better
Enjoy!

Hi everyone! I'm happy to announce the first PRODUCTION release being rolled out.
Enjoy and don't forget to submit any bugs you find or feeds suggestions you would like to see in the app.

Wow the app is really cool. I will give it a try for a few days and see what It can do.
Just a question: can you add a way to login using Google account? There's a lot of passwords to remember and using Google is much better, with synchronization is superb.
PS: If you need someone to help you translating to portuguese let me know.

Finally an app that allows me read short rss feeds in full. Loves it. Please any plans for an import feature so I can import my feedly subscriptions? Thanks

plans to add to XDA labs or f droid?

Hi @udegbunamchuks - Just checked the OPML generated and yes, this is doable. You woulld like to see an option to import the exact OPML file, right? Sadly, it will take longer than one afternoon. Hope to keep you in the app until then :good:

With that, do you just mean if I plan to list the app on both services or completely open-source the code?

listing mostly but OS would be nice also.
feel like it would get more love at xda and f Droid.
btw been testing it and working great. been looking for a good rss reader for a long time.

thank you so much for your feedback. I will bring it on f-droid and xda labs in the future

None of my sources in this app shows any pictures. I even added MTV News since you used that in your screenshots and yours shows pictures for each article. It doesn't show any pictures on mine.

good evening @sourbear and thank you for your report. Just for test, please try adding "neowin". There are A LOT of sources, that just don't add image as leading article image (default rss image for specific article). However, it just happened none of your picked up source articles currently dont include any images.
MTV, at that time, had images, I've tested it again and what you found is correct. (Shame on them! ). Give them all a day or two.... you will start seeing them eventually. :good:

math in blogs
This is a great news for me, as I have been using feedMe for some time, but it cannot display mathjax properly.
So, two questions, do you plan to add mathjax/mathml support, and offline support as well?? Right now I tried https://terrytao.wordpress.com/feed/ and the math is not shown properly. Some formulas appear too big, some don't appear at all. Thank you for your work @greglord

Hi there
I will take a look immediatelly what's going on with those formulas!
Update @gilcu3
Just checked the source of the article and... oh my So far, I've made the formulas visible, however, since there is so much mixing between paragraphs and images (formulas), the "grabber" does not add texts to the full story. I humby ask for re-test after new update. If the content isn't something that suits you, I will invest more time and refactor the grabber to be more smart.

[APP][5.0+] Sh-ort -- URL Shortener

Sh-ort is a how I reimagined a URL Shortener app using Material Design to build a branded experience, through UI and Motion.
There are several apps that take care of shortening urls, and they are great at what they do but they all have more or less the same design and are a little boring.
Also when you have many urls it is difficult to manage the statistics well and to have everything at hand, maybe a general overview of how your links are performing would be fantastic - I thought - and also give the user the possibility to render the entries in the list more recognizable thanks to the preview of the article, or of the page whose URL you have shortened.
Then I thought about who could use the app, to a tempt who perhaps manages several websites for work, and who might want to see how the links belonging to the same site perform.
I have created a small app that attempts to improve the experience with URL shortener, through its structure (overview, all links, best links), the ability to filter links based on the site they belong to, the date, or whether they are added to favorites or not.
The details department is still in its early stages but you can have the complete statistics on clicks already by default, without the need for a subscription as happens in major similar apps.
Of course there is still a lot to improve, so I trust in your feedback to find bugs and to add features that I missed in this first release.
There is a complete lack of translations in all languages and dark mode, which will be implemented once the app has reached a modest number of functions and use cases, making it an attractive app for the average and pro user.
Find more information on my app design and branding process in the Medium article linked below, as well as the link to download the app.
I look forward to hearing from you and your feedback, thanks for your attention.

can you use it on the computer?

I don't care about tracking, do I still have to use a Google account?

For the moment I am focusing on the android app, but in future I may extend to web and other platforms

Hello, the login part has nothing to do with tracking, it is simply used to let the user create collections of short urls on the server, and sync it across devices.

I've tried this app and it is really amazing compared to Bitly android app.
Thanks, Mirko!

Sorry, I meant syncing and saving, not Google tracking me.
Just installed/uninstalled, the app won't even start without a Google login.
I'm not interested in saving, collecting, or syncing shortened URL's, just sending “one and done” links from my phone. Can you tweak this to eliminate the login?

The app is designed to assign an owner to every short url so the owner can check the short url performance. If you are not interested in stats means that this is not an app that fits your needs.

True, no problem. I'm not your target user.

For some reason that app force closes every time I try to load it. Tried clearing cache/data & even uninstall/reinstall. Android 10 stock, w/ magisk

Hello, thanks for reaching out but I cannot guess what is the problem just knowing your android version. For sure I can say that have not passed at least 3 hours yet since you got crashes because the crash console is flat.
Write your device model and as soon I get the report I can see what s wrong and eventually I will fix it.

Would sending you a logcat of the crash make it easier?

The app code is obfuscated, I don t know if you would actually get something useful from it. But giving a try doesn t cost anything, right?
you can find the email where to send the log in the Google Play page of the app
Edit: by the way, the package name is it.mirko.sh_ort if you want to clean your log
