[APP][1.6+] Thousand Clocks Gallery

Hi,
I'm developer of Make Your Clock Widget (http://www.makeyourclock.com). This app is more than year old and last couple of month community around the app created thousands of widgets, some of them are really nice (see screenshots bellow):

To promote my app I created non editor version of the application Thousand Clocks Gallery (you can download it for free from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.hubalek.android.makeyourclock.gallery.pro.
Application is
- free (no ads)
- supports all elements as paid version Make Your Clock Widget (battery, weather, date, time, ...)
Limitations are:
- number of downloads per week is limited
- user needs to be registered to count number of downloads
I would like to ask you for feedback about app. Whether you feel that app is useful, whether is is easy to user (or you had some issues with app or with concept), etc.
Thanks a lot
Tom

I was holding my tongue but I wish you would open the ability to use custom images and fonts over giving away what has already been created. I guess my viewpoint is I think the app would be better if it was more customizable than if others could use my creations easily. The interface on your app is way easier than UCCW, but I have switched due to the ability to mod images, fonts etc.

Thanks a lot your feedback is very valuable.
To be honest: I created Thousand Clocks Gallery to promote widget editor. The issue with the application is currently that development is pretty expensive (as application is getting more and more sophisticated) and to get payback for adding new features I need more users.

That makes sense. I have never made an app so cost never crossed my mind. Your editor ui is far superior to others in your class in my opinion. It was why I bought the app months back. That being said custumibility will get you more paid users. Good luck.

My experience from past four months is unfortunately completely different. Sales of Make Your Clock are still getting lower and lower despite of adding more and more features.
I made Thousand Clocks Gallery to save Make Your Clock from being retired.

You're in the driver seat so I am not in a place to argue. You already have my money, I'm just saying the reason I unistalled your app and am trying uccw is the ability to add my own images and fonts. :beer:

Apology for registration issue
BTW: I want to apologize for the issue you may experienced when registering in first days. Because of extreme interest in app we run out of App Engine email quota and app was not sending registration confirmation emails.
It is solved now and all users (no matter they were affected or not) registered before Tuesday 4/17/2012 will get 100 extra download credits.

BTW: I added new features according your feedback
- you can (re)center your design now
- you can delete design from phone
- you can change clock type from 12 to 24 hours and back
- minor bugs fixed

No registration required from now!
We completely removed registration as users complained to registration process. Now you can use this app without any limits immediately after installation.

I'd suggest you remove the ad from the top if you're saying it's especially suitable for devices with small screens.
It's taking a big chunk out of my Galaxy Ace.

Or, provide a way to remove ads, for example, download a paid licence.

May be u make a 'one time click for today' ads. Means those ad will come back again tomorrow after user have pressed it once a day.
Definitely a win-win situation for me.

Interesting, let me try. :fingers-crossed:

Really small
This browser is really small , I try it just now ,very fast.

As soon as I noticed the ad right on top I uninstalled it. Lame.

Kudos for a really fast browser. Suggestions :
1. Ads should be placed at bottom. As design language says that browsing experience has to be least distracting. And our eyes while browsing gaze 60% of screen from top. So shifting ads to bottom on a slimmer bar will solve problem to some extent. If this free version really wins heart partially it will automatically pave the way for ad free premium version.
2. Please implement holo theme for menus or just design a fresh UI for yourself. But don't include gingerbread design. This makes the browser a foreign feel on ics and jb. Best option would be to go for a signature menu, design like opera or dolphin did for themselves to keep consistent over various os and creating brand impact.
All the luck with your effort.

New App - Amazing technology! The end of homescreen chaos!

What is it?
How many times have you rambled through your phone searching for an App? Wondering where in the world, among all those icons is the one you are searching.
Worry no more! That's what EZ-Launch is for.
To be honest, Ez-Launch is more of a widget than an app, and it helps you makes sense of your overburdened home screen.
How do I install it ?
Well, after you find " Ez-Launch " on google play store and download (Apologies for the absence of a link) and download, You add the Ez-Launch widget to your homepage, and EZ does the rest.
The app will learn your preferences and give you E-Z access to your favorite apps.
What if I don't want this app or that app on my widget? What choices do I have?
In purpose of enabling you more control we have defined a settings screen that enables you to select one of 3 options for every app installed on your device:
Always - This app will always be on the widget
Off - Never place this app on the widget.
Auto - Its up for the EZ-Launch app to decide.
In addition you also have the possibility to save a state of the widget (a certain collection of apps that you like) and load it later on as you please.
What?? How does it work? Is it... MAGIC!?
No. It isn't magic. It is a project developed by 4 Computer science students from Tel aviv University within an android technologies workshop in collaboration with Google.
During the project we have researched, studied and developed algorithms and heuristics (Yeah, sounds a bit complicated) all for your benefit and ease of mind. In order not to burden the reader, we will briefly just explain that the application service simply learns you, and knows how to give you the most convenient arrangement for your home screen that just continues to improve.
This is a project in the Beta phase, and we strongly recommend that you give it a try and download, especially if you know someone (Like your parents) that is having a hard time managing their home screen.
For those of you who don't know what Beta means, it is the phase right before the official release of the app, where you get to try it for free(!) and even influence the development by giving us your valuable feedback.
That's right! If you have complaints, suggestions, or any type of feedback just let us know by contacting the development team by mail:
[email protected]
Or on our Facebook page, where you can also LIKE us:
facebook.com/EzLaunch
So download, enjoy and let us know what you think.
Yours with love,
EZ-Launch Team.

To be honest...
This has quite the potential. I am amazed that I seem to be the only one trying it out here! I've been using it a couple of days now and it already gives me a great list of my most used widgets. I'm using it as a 5x3 widget on my note and thanks for making it scrollable as well! :thumbup:
I will recommend this! Thanks!

Great app indeed!
I only have one comment: while using it with Nova Launcher, resizing the widget 'kills' the way the icons are displayed, as I can only see half of the last row (for custom number of rows/columns).

good work with the app, reminds me of similar things with WinMo 6.x on my Sony Eric son X1 a while back. Would be nice to have resizable app icons within the widget though, if possible.

What a great idea! I am also surprised this app is not getting more attention. Nice work.

Thank you all for the positive feedback. We derive great pleasure in knowing that people like our creation and find it useful.
Besides from relishing on your compliments we would also like to hear any suggestions or complaints you might have. Do not hesitate to post here, email us at [email protected] or like us on facebook.com/EzLaunch
Thanks. :good:

sadly only for android 4 and up on store.
any chance to have it for gingerbread too???

You can scroll up/down to see all the apps

Nice you planing on ability to change icons and text ...theme abilities.

Hi. Is it possible to have an option for the widget to return to the top of its list after launching an app? Would love to see this feature added if possible.

AW: New App - Amazing technology! The end of homescreen chaos!
Hi,
Nice app. Would be great if you could make icon text optional and a scale down for icons. Till now I used a launcher-x widget on my home screen that is 5x2 grid size and contains 7x3 icons of my most used apps.
As is use these apps often the text is not needed. By scaling down the icons I can just get more icons in it.
Pretty nice app so far. If you could implement some of these features it would be worth buying it.

Great update very handy

update looks good! thanks for the new features!
I would also like to see theming compatibility. or a color overlay or icon size options.
thanks! looks like this thread is starting to roll!

Yes reset to apply work ones. Minor hassel

Hi,
i used the widget for about 12 hours now. Yesterday evening the widget was learning pretty well and presented my mosted used apps. This morning the widget presented totaly diffrent apps. Most of them i use very rare or even don't use at all.
Will let you know how it is doing the next days.

The last update from a couple of hours ago caused a reset. Just use your phone like normal and after a couple of hours or days the widget will automatically give you a better list.

[APP][4.0+] HoloConvert: The New Unit Converter

This is my new Unit Conversion app released today, HoloConvert. I felt that all of the current Android unit conversion apps are ugly and many aren't powerful enough, so I decided to make one of my own with a Holo interface in mind. I recieved great support on XDA for my last app Scientific 7 Minute Workout so I wanted to see if I could get some feedback for my newest app.

What makes this unit conversion app different?
Like I said before, I feel the user interface of an app is one of the most major components of an app. Even if an app works well, you shouldn't have to sacrifice on the looks or ease-of-use of an app. I made this app to target that, while implementing many features such as:
Saving your favorite conversion units
Adding new custom units
Tip Calculator
Multiple themes
Choice in decimal precision
Built-in calculator
I just released the app, so please let me know what you think and of any suggestions!

Wow this looks great!

Just downloaded and it's a great app! :good:
Just one suggestion can you give swap icon (similar like in google translate) so if we need to change from m to cm or vice versa from cm to m, we only need one tap
Definitely will buy it! Looking forward for next update

Beautiful work dev, keep up:good:

Thanks a lot guys! And how could I have forgotten a swap icon, added to my to-do list! I am very actively updating the app at this time (I've technically pushed out 3 updates so far) so keep the suggestions coming

Thanks for the update, I noticed a slight bug with currencies but it was already fixed!

Yep, there was a small issue with them at first but I fixed it pretty quick! Let me know if you find anything else!

Just saw on xda portal am going to try this.

Buying Pro was a no-brainer.
Now I'd only like to get an option to get the favorites on opening the app. This way I have to click two times for them, whilst the goal of favorites would be to have a shortcut!

That would be great. Also, some more currencies would be great, if you have the time (I kind of miss SEK).
Great app though! and at 0.79€, very affordable!

Scrolling through the units is extremely laggy on my phone, other buttons work with instant feedback. Somehow the list is really heavy to render.

I prefer asking google now for unit conversion but this is very nice app

Nice and handy app. One little bug, I cannot input negative numbers on the From input. E.g., when converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius.

Just downloaded.
Looks very nice but I have two remarks.
On my SGS2 4.3" display, text is HUGE.
It would be nice to be able to select between few text sizes.
Nothing fancy, simple "Small, Medium, Large" selection.
You desperately need to implement reverse conversion.
If I choose meter as first unit and insert number "1", it works for Angstrom but cannot cope with AU.
You could implement simple swipe left or right to replace currently selected units
Also, question "Are you sure you wish to exit?" is unnecessary in my opinion.
Best wishes in new year!

This ain't right...

That looks like Fahrenheit to Kelvin conversion. Code bugs it seems like.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk

Well I purchased it.
Will keep it but two issues so far.
The icon is ugly (will be nice to have something graphical)
The first conversion I tried was not accurate. There are exactly 12 inches to a foot so I selected convert feet to inches, selected 3 feet and it did not convert to exactly 36 inches.

Nice
Some current, resistance,voltage,ect. units, would be great. Nice job I can help with translation to polish.

great!
:laugh: it's cool

Very nice app. I just have not been able to enter a negative number for conversion.
For instance, if I attempt to enter -40 for a F to C for temp conversion, the "-" symbol does not appear to register as having been selected for input, despite the fact that the keyboard shows it available and I have entered it.

Hi all!
I wasn't satisfied with any of the current methods of accessing all apps/contacts so I set out to create my own.
I present to you, Snype.
Snype has a unique dual-index system where switching between "snyping" apps and contacts is almost instant. It has changed the way I use my device and has done the same for many of my beta testers.
It also has a unique "side panel" mode where apps and contacts can be accessed simply by scrolling a finger up or down the edge of the display, which is always active no matter which app you are currently in. A list will appear and automatically begin scrolling to the location in the index that the finger is pointing to.
Snype does not try to replace your launcher. In fact, I designed it so that I would be able to use any launcher I like and not have to worry about the launcher's implementation of the app drawer. This means it's very easy to have a completely uncluttered, beautiful home screen and still be only a second away from accessing any app or contact you desire.
There are no ads and all functionality is available for free. The premium upgrade allows full customisation of the appearance of the lists.
Let me know how it goes for you!

I should mention that the premium upgrade is available for $0.99 for a short period of time to celebrate the launch of Snype. It will be a bit more later.

I love your app Sleep Ambience!

Really good app. I will give you 5 stars!
Some things to change:
- Add more languages
- if possible the alphabet lists have a title to know that one it is for apps, and the other for contacts.
- A widget and a direct access from home.

Thanks for the excellent feedback.
More languages is actually a surprisingly large challenge due to the indexes. It is something that I might look into again later, but when I was having a crack at it before there were some significant technical hurdles.
I have thought about doing something to let you know at a glance which is for apps and which is for contacts... like different colours or something. I'm not sure. Where do you think the title should go? There's not much room there.
I also looked into doing a widget. Unfortunately widgets don't support all kinds of views so making a widget with this functionality is impossible unless the launcher is built specifically for it. That's actually the main reason I implemented the side panels, because I knew the widget would not be possible.

ability to launch apps in halo would be nice. And maybe icon theme support. Very nice and useful app by the way:good:

Thanks for the ideas

I just released an update to fix some crashes in the initial release.

I just released an update which added animation to the side panels, adds Snype to the list of apps and fixes some bugs. I'm still trying to hunt down some bugs that occur only on some devices. Let me know if you have one of those devices please.

Okay, I think I've got all the known bugs fixed. Let me know if there's anything else wonky.

Just released an update with a new feature: favourites bar.
Now it's even faster to access those special few apps and contacts you use most often.

I love the ability to search contracts easily! And light theme looks cool.
Keep it up!:good:

Yeah, Samsung devices seem to do that. I'm not sure why, since even my Galaxy Nexus is pretty smooth and the Note 3 is much more powerful. I'll keep trying to make it smoother for you.
