Touiteur twitter app

great article on what looks to be a very promising twitter app for android.
video walkthrough in there as well as a release date of feb 16
waiting anxiously!
http://androinica.com/2010/02/15/touiter-will-eventually-be-the-best-android-twitter-app/
and developer site is
http://levelupstudio.com/

Hmm, will try it when it's out.
I tried many twitter apps and it's going like this:
1. Twicca (beta)
2. TwidroidPRO
3. Seesmic
999. Tweetcaster

It's out!

How much does it cost? I can't check because I'm in Canada.

There is a free version and a €1.99 premium version.

Yes its out!
Trying it out now. The layout is great. I also turned on the group by color option in settings.
Definitely best ui for a twitter android client.
My only complaints so far is that refreshes seem a bit slow. I don't know if this has to do with the different login method. This doesn't store your login information on the app, instead you authorize it to connect with your twitter account so if your phone gets inti the wrong hands you can deactivate twitter permission from anywhere.
Also I would love to see threaded conversations.

Well, it's not bad. Nice longpress and shortpress features but only 10m refresh time?
Also like the oauth login.
I tried it a few minutes and right after using it I opened twicca and disliked the amount of tweets you see without scrolling on twicca xD Touituer is better with this

Yeah but the lowest it goes is 10 minutes.

Oh lol, the premium one isn't worth it.. you can only set a color for LED notification and a light theme..
get free one first and install prem. key after.
(be happy if you were fast enough to grab the key.)

You'll kill your battery mighty fast if you're refreshing under 10 minutes lol.
I like to set mine to an hour with auto refresh at launch.

Wow, I like this a lot more than Twidroid! Thanks for mentioning it, OP!

you might want to edit the key out of your post before you get banned

which key?

You know very well. Posting these things is a breach of our rules and can result in a ban (Including an IP ban if necessary). Don't do it again - we are a developer site and as such we see Warez as theft from developers who are employed in the development sector.

Thanks for the heads up.

you forgot about the widgets in premium too

It's got a nice UI but still like Seesmic.
Also does this have twitter trends? because I can't find it.

It looks nice, but I still prefer Swift.

Fantastic. Exactly the type of app I've been waiting for. It's very pretty, functional, nice flare, looks like a lot of work went into it. Refreshing is a little slow, but it will improve with time. One of the best apps out there.
I can't wait to see more apps like this from Android developers.

[APP][2.1+] Naked Browser 1.0 - A full featured yet tiny web browser

Hey now,
I was fed up with the privacy violations, bloat, instability, and general stupid functionality of Android browsers. I decided to make my own. Introducing...
Naked Browser
TRUST: Right permissions with no spying.
SPEED: No bloat, including minimal GUI candy.
FEATURES: Crash restore, undo close tab, one finger zoom, infinite tabs, and more.
FREE: As in no cost. Not even any ads.
Here's the web site: http://nakedbrowser.com/android/
I've been working on this for the past few months. I've been quite meticulous when trying to focus on speed and avoiding bloat. As a result, it isn't the prettiest app in the world. However, please know that most of my effort went under the hood. Stability and a rich feature set mean more to me than eye candy.

Interesting concept. Must say, its REAL FAST
Inspite of all this, I would just advise some UI enhancements, thats it. Else it is a nearly perfect browser.
Oh, forgot to mention but the icon looks kind of old, how about adding a new trendy one? :thumbup:
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app

It looks ok, though I cannot use it with this GUI mate... Looks fugly...
Would be the perfect browser If ui were tuned up a little bit... Will keep it installed to check for any updates
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

Thanks guys. I'm really happy to read that it's real fast and it would be the perfect browser.
I focused as close to 0% on the UI as possible. Honestly, that was a goal. My top priorities were speed, stability, and functionality/features. In fact, unless I forget something, other than the blue color I added the entire UI is based on function alone. I even resisted adding the button icons but it actually took time to read the labels to figure out what to do so I added them.
I even wanted to go with the generic default "andy the android" application icon but instead opted to draw my own globe from memory in about 3 minutes in GIMP. So, it's not an old icon! It's new!!! ;-P And obviously I'm no illustrator.
The UI shows my dedication to making it function properly rather than look beautiful. It's like Apache or something. The interface isn't beautiful--just a config file in Apache's case--but it works like a champ. Sometimes when you focus first on the way it looks (Microsoft?), you end up with a pile of doo doo. I prefer it to look crappy but run great. Later it can look and run great.
Anyway, thanks for checking it out. I'm still improving it so keep it installed if you like. You might find yourself using it, you might end up thinking it's beautiful, but either way it will improve.

And hell yeah, you did manage to get a fast browser... guess I will be using it when the interface gets a little better...
I know the speed and functionality comes first, but I hate to admit that I'm attracted to good looks rather than functionality... I know, I'm ashamed... but I can't help it

I just discover your interesting browser. Regarding to the size but bar tools should be display at buttom like zoom icons and only icons (no txt) cause it take too much space.
Hope to see next version if possible maybe with modern icon
Keep the good job
thanks

Thanks for the app, it loads fast and i actually like the UI, it's kinda cute :angel: . Any plan for urlfilter like in opera mobile, so I can block ad locally?

Really fast browser! The UI is sooooo sick!!!
But I found that the bookmarks and history on the start page are not support unicode languages, such as Chinese...
And is there a history page? Seems not. I can only access to history on the start page...
If there's a history menu or it can show the history inside bookmark page would be nice.
The rest is fantastic!
Thanks!!

Honestly this thing is pretty quick lol nice job!

There's another request:
Please add option to create bookmark shortcut on home screen...
I think this is really useful!

Great browser man, but please for the lpve of my eyesight...put atleast a little bit into the UI, i dunno.. like 5% . ill use the browser but with my eyes closed lol.
good work

Great job on this browser man. Its fast and smooth. And as far as the icon, I for one like it
When my kids ask, what does this word mean? I tell them to bring me a dictionary........Then I smack them with it, and tell them to Google that sh¡t.

selecting words, copy/paste working well?

Thank you all for the feedback! The next version will be out in a day or two.

Yeah, right? It’s cute! Sure. Anyway, I would love adblock but it isn’t easy. I do not access transferred data so I can’t tell what’s an ad. I can imagine a few ways to access the data and filter it, so I’m keeping it in mind. Pro version.

Bad “soooo sick” or good “soooo sick”?
Unicode/Chinese: I had no idea. I’ll try to figure out the problem. Are the bookmarks/history not showing up or do the links just not work?

I made some small tweaks so the next version might look a teensy bit better. If there’s anything really odd like labels that aren’t on buttons then let me know. Otherwise, I’m focusing on my goals for the app and “make shiny” is not at the top of the list right now.
Many people say that it looks horrible, and I agree. However, they need to know that I’m focusing all of my time on features, speed, and stability. Adding some graphics or making a more complicated UI are just going to take me away from working on stuff under the hood AND slow the browser down/eat up RAM. I have a little background with cars. First let’s get it running, then we can paint the thing. That being said, any feedback is encouraged so just keep it coming!

About the home screen shortcut suggestion, actually I mean to create bookmark shortcut on launcher's home screen, not the browser's start page. For example, a Facebook shortcut on home screen...
And one more thing: A private browsing toggle would be even nice!
Thanks again for your hard work!

just found it via the news.
awesome!! that's exactly what i searched for.
there is almost no UI, and you can navigate so amazingly fast!
i'll use this one for now, let's see i can use it for my daily surfing x)
only one thing: the +/- buttons on the bottom right are really annoying. the option to remove them doesn't work :3

Really, really nice! I'm definitely going to give it a try as my default browser

[APP][4.0+] GMDYO Launcher (Free) 1.2

GMDYO -> GO Make Dis Your Own Launcher (Free) 1.2
This is an alternative launcher as compared to the various launchers on the market. Given the capabilities of the Android system, we felt that more should have been done to improve the user experience. Thus we are doing this differently compared to current launchers available on the market right now. However, in order to ensure that we are able to cater to all of the needs of the users, we are releasing it as we develop it along the way.
Please do let us know what are the things that
- we are doing right
- what needs to be corrected or improved
- what features you want to see in the future releases
- overall are we heading in the right direction
NOTE :
This app is a work in progress and there might be bugs present. Currently, you can get out of the launcher just by pressing the "BACK" key on your mobile. This is done on purpose as we feel that its still too early for it to be a user's daily work horse and more suited to be a showcase instead.
More features are in the pipeline so do expect updates
If you do notice, we do have another version of GMDYO which is paid. However, please do note that there is NO DIFFERENCE between the PAID and FREE version. The reason we came out with two versions is because we feel that not all might want to get the paid version upfront to support the development and we did not like the idea of putting ads in the app and ruin the whole experience and thus, we decided to do it this way. If you can and feel that the app is worth your time, please do help by either getting the paid version or the free version. Do feedback to us anything that you feel that can be improved.
As I'm are currently under 10 posts, I'm unable to post the link to the app. However, a search in Play Store with "gmdyo" should be able to find the app. Will try and hit the target to 10 posts asap. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Thanks for your time!

Sounds interesting, hope you do a good job with it.

suggestions (maybe)
thx for this innovative new style of a launcher!
i have some ideas that would be cool for that kind of concept:
do you know lightning launcher and its way of not using a grid but some infinite desktop space?
if not, take a look at it, it's free in the market.
now think, wouldn't that be a cool addition to the concept of gmdyo?
the creation of much more intense "cities" would be possible and that would enrichen the experience quite a lot.
another idea would be making gmdyo a 3d thing, but honestly, i have no idea how to navigate that thing if it would be 3d...
anyway, thx for bringing up something innovative and new!

Did tried out Lightning Launcher. Think its a great concept with the infinite space! We are planning to integrate more features into GMDYO, 3D is definitely in the brainstorming stage but as we are concurrently doing development for other projects, so progress might be abit slow. Do look out for our other apps as we launch them!
Once again, thanks for your feedback and have a nice day!

[APP][4.0+] WallBox v1.3.2

Update v1.3.2 of my WallBox app is now available for download. Please download and let me know what you think. It is a free app that will help with editing wallpapers, with a nice, themed interface. I have added 3 themes, much more fluid design, simple features like generating random values when editing the hue, saturation, brightness and contrast to give you even greater control of your wallpapers!
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lithidsw.wallbox

Latest version of WallBox is being pushed out. Now v1.2.1 fixes issues with selecting a theme and also fixes issues handling custom color codes on colorwall. You should start seeing these updates very soon.
Enjoy!

I understand. I did like it as well, but in order to prep for a few other things that I am working on, it was going to be in the way. It was also using another external library to preform that action. I have chosen to remove third party libs and work directly with the android sdk and guidelines. I hope it doesn't cause too much trouble.

OP, this is a pretty nifty app. Have you considered adding blurring functionality, a la Blrrr/Blur: http://blrrr.com/ . It's an iOS-only app that lets you apply a Gaussian blur to any photo you choose to make a nice-looking blurred wall that works well with iOS 7's new look. I've been looking for an equivalent app on Android for my Nexus 4, since I like the blurred aesthetic in general.

I'll give it a go and report to you back.
I'll write the good and the bad about the app :good:

Doesn't seem to be working for me, TF101, JB 4.2.2
I download any wall, I go to the download section, I tell it to apply and it just sets the default green leaf android wallpaper instead

I love it!! it is the only app that doesn't use tons of memory for a simple task. Nice work, please keep improving your already great work!

This is great.

Hello. I am sorry you are seeing issues. Would you be able to send me a log? Have you tried with other wallpapers? I am wondering if maybe there is a bad download. If it tries to apply a wallpaper that isn't fully downloaded you might get that. Let me check into it.

I have updated wallbox once again to version 1.3.2 I have added in blur to wallsnap and now allow you to edit wallsnap image without messing with your current wallpaper. Check it out and please leave me some feedback!

[App][4.0+]XDA Portal

Hi everyone, this is my first "hello world" app on the play store. I know there is another app similar to this, but I just wanted to learn how to code so here it is .
XDA Portal is an extremely light-weight, unofficial app designed to let you quickly glance over the first new articles featured on the XDA portal.
Features:
Extremely light-weight and fast
Elegant cards ui
light on memory
Application is still in beta, so there may be occasional bugs. Again, this is unofficial.
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.sunstreak.xda
v2: Ability to open page in browser so you can access all the links!
What do you all think?

Looks good. Force closed after it finished loading on first try, then worked good. Needs a tablet layout, though

No. It forced close before showing any content, when it was still showing the "Loading goodies" message. If I have it again, I'm going to send feedback through the Android feedback thingy.
If you want anyone to test the Tablet layout, let me know (Tablet Z, 10.1 inch, 1920x1200 here)
Sent from my SGP311 using Tapatalk

Just downloaded it and works great for me on my SGS3 with no force closes.
One little thing regarding the visual look of the UI though. The contrast between the background and the cards should be increased slightly because it's difficult to tell where one card ends & the next one begins.
Other than that, looks great & works great! Nice job!
Sent from my Xposed CM11 SGS3 on Virgin Mobile

Works great on a N5. One tip though...make the font size for the title and the body have more of a difference. The title and body fonts aren't really easily distinguishable. Another tip would be to make the background a light gray instead of pure white so the cards don't blend in as much. (Or just use holo dark as the theme).

First of all, great.
Second: Please parse the content for links. The portal is all about linking to other content.
Keep up the good work.

Subscribed, I tend to browse the portal allot. This may just be my app for that, instead of opening tapatalk, then browsing through the list of forums, then loading, then sliding out and selecting portal and then waiting.
Super light weight, and simple. Love the UI its clean and neat, haven't experienced any problems what so ever on my Nexus 5, really good creation for you first app!
Keep the updates and new features coming.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

using a samsung S3, works great, fast, stable and sharp, now there are lot of things you can implement in the visual area, like choosing three different fonts, sizes.
In some cases, once you open an article, you can see there´s more space between the image and the main title in some articles, that´s all for now.
Keep up with this fine work !!! :good:

good work,keep it up!!!!!

Can you add Android 2.3 support? Seems interesting. :good:

nothing when settings tab is pressed!!!

minimal & fast... keep it up!
Hope You will add a switcher, in Settings, between dark and light (i use trds roms), and the a ability to load also older stories, or a cut-off number selection to choose how many entries one wanna load

@sunstreak
good job, thanks :good:
first thing I've noticed that settings on menu doesn't do anything, if you didn't added it eclipse automatically add menu item called "settings" so I suggest to remove it.
another little problem maybe cuz of the small screen is that there's a large empty space like this image:

Amazingly smooth man, i'm keeping it.

Thanks for all the feedback! V1.1 should be up soon with ability to open link in the browser and removed settings button.

this is good stuff man downloading as we speak
