If you dont have a prerelease version, at least you could post some screenshots so people have some ideea what are you taking about. Who knows maybe its a good nav app.
EDIT: now your OP its just fine, i only post it from the first place because i saw over 150 views of your thread and poor description.

sadly i have to post 10 replys before ican add pictures and download links to my theads. But i am on it.
So the link and pictures will follow in a bit. When you look in Google Play for "Clicknav" you can find it.
Cheers

Sorry but i dont really see the purpose in this

I tend to agree. Even going to familiar places from unfamiliar ones wouldn't seem to need an app.
It may have been a programming exercise f for the op.

Its not necessary that one needs to be familiar with a route. Let's take an example ...
I go to Australia to visit my Bro (am unfamiliar with Australia as I live in the Middle East). Once am at his place I take his spare car and drive round the country side and need to get back home :s Had I set a marker before I left my bro's place, I could get directions easily. Ok, that was day 1. Day 2, I move out again ... remember I know my brother's place if I am near or about the locality but have no clue of where I am when I drive beyond a point. This could help me.
Now, if I have a widget on my launcher, I could use this right through my Australian trip.
That said, I have not tried this app yet. I do wish that this could tie up/ integrate with other offline map apps too such as Sygic, etc. When I am at my home, I use Google Maps a lot, but when I am touring, I use offline maps to save on my data. Would be good if I could go through Google maps on my PC, place markers and then have it pop up in my offline map application when I do not want to use Google maps.

I like this app, it is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for it.

It's not only usefull for common places. You can add any place you want. For example for a trip preparation.
You can also search places in Google Maps and for later use you can send the place to the app and safe it.
I work a lot in different citys and i use it dayly to get around. If you live in a small town it is easy to find your way but in big citys which you are not familiar with it's always a nightmare.
And with the categories you can easily manage your addresses for example by work, friends, family, discos and so on.
There are a lot people whih are brilliant in navigation but i am a bit stupid with this. so i created the app to help people like me to find there way faster(one click or even with a widget) and more easy.

Hello everybody.
I hope you hav fun with my app.
I added some new features which makes it more usable and a little help for beginners.
Features:
- save of last category
- added help
- added menu
- added button in menu to get current gps position

Great app, but is there any way of getting rid of the annoying ads at the bottom?

In the newest version i made them already less anoying. Because in the past the ads pushed the buttons away. Now the buttons stay where they are so that you can't accidentally press the ads.
And if i would put them on top then the ads would push away the list and then you maybe navigate to a location you don't want.
And i wanted to give a free app with full functionality instead of a demo version.
So i use the ads because it cost me a lot of work to create this app and to make it runable on a lot of systems.(Hopefully it's bug free)

I'm liking the app so far you. I would gladly pay a $1 to have an ad free version. I had a few suggestions that hopefully could be added.
1. Even though when we save a location it saves the latitude and longitude can it also fill in the complete address for the location.
2. More labels notes is a good start phone would be another good one or even better you can add your own
3. maybe when you are in the location edit the button that you use to launch could instead be a street view image of the location.
4. option to change distance from km to miles for the US
5. options to sort addresses A-Z, distance from you etc...
6. more background colors and styles

Thanks a lot for those tips. After i read this i needed to implement some of this stuff in my app.
So here are the new features:
- automatic suggestions while you type in the address (only works with active internet connection)
- new labels like phone number, email and web
- new search function
- show distance in miles and feet
- sort locations by distance
- new info window with automatic functions like call, send email and start browser
Hope you have fun with the app. And please tell me if you have any trouble or if you like to see other stuff in the app.
PS.: I think about a payable version of the app without ads. But at the moment the amount of users is too small.
But you can change that

Now a new Version is out with new features.
- added public transport navigation
- fixed an import export bug
- small grafic changes
- when you share an address out of the new version of google maps 7.0 than the application will be able to read the information

REQUEST: Allow integration with KLets voice command

Hi,
First of all thanks for your great app. Really useful.
As many other users, I prefer to use a voice command when I'm on the road. So far the best for me is KLets and I was thinking if you could allow its developer to add support for your app in order to be able to launch a Clicknav's location item with the voice command: "Navigate to" + "location name".
There's a discussion in the support forum of KLets. Hopefully you could help us.
http://www.voicecontrolapp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=13463&p=16631#p16631
The idea is to allow external access to the location list and be able to invoke a location item via Intents (maybe there's an easier way).
Thanks in advance

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.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
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?

I do not want the first part (to keep it simple), but the second part is interesting, I think I'll implement it.
- 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.

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.
- 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
Click to expand...

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

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.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
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:

[APP][2.3+] LineitApp - Draw Lines That Will Work For You.

LineitApp
Lets forget for a moment about all the apps that we have and just wake up into a new reality with LineitApp.
LineitApp gives you the full capability to make your phone work for you.
Simply draw a line on a map and choose whatever you wish that your phone will do for you when you cross that line.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can also send this line to your friend who has LineitApp too , and when he crosses your line you will receive a message.
You can draw as many lines as you wish and each line will work for you.
You can choose if this line will be constant on the map (will be activated in a specific day/time of the week every week) or will start working immediately and perform the action that you desire when you cross that line.
So, what kind of work the lines can perform for you?
• Automatic phone calls while you drive with speaker on to anyone from your contact list.
• Change phone state to Vibration if your phone is on normal state and Change it back to normal state if your phone is on silence/vibration while you cross the line.
• They can open an electrical gate that works by dialing.
• Record a short video of 10 seconds when you cross them (Great for dangerous intersections ).
• Take a selfie and send it through WhatsApp.
• launch Sports apps such as: Endomondo or RunKeeper depends on your choice (Awsome when you draw a line at the start of your running route).
• Launch any app you wish.
• In a shopping center or any place you like to receive deals from & choose the mode:"Customized Deals Line" & select your favourite categories & you will receive deals from that specific place for a particular category only if the shop owner draw a line from the app LineitApp (Business) in that shopping center.
• You can send this line to the pizza guy or a technician or anyone you like and when he come across your line you will receive a message.
• This line can also send a cute sound when you cross the line to anyone from your contact list who has LineitApp too , telling him that you are next to his place to pick him up.
• This line can also send a text message when you cross it (You will write a text message to the line ).
• Turn Bluetooth/Wifi/Internet on/off (Whatever you need)
.
The possibilities are endless with LineitApp.

UPDATE ---> Since we got alot of questions on how to use every mode we uploaded a new video very short to explain it!
Enjoy!
And please if you have more questions just ask
****Update****
******************NEW FEATURE-Automatic GATE OPENER**************
follow this steps after drawing a line next to your gate:
1. press on the MODE button
2. Choose Automatic call to...
3. Choose your gate number
4. close the app
*************************************************************
**Update**
New version + new modes :
* Automatic selfie - Now your phone will take a picture of you automatically when you cross the line that you'd drawn.
*Automatic recorder - Now your phone will record a short video of 10 seconds in a dangerous intersections when you cross the line that you'd drawn.:fingers-crossed:
Tasker integration?
I second the tasker request. This needs to be a tasker plugin, or maybe launch any tasker task when a line is passed.
Also, sorry to say your video is cringeworthy.
Yeah forcing your users to sign up for "deals" before you can even use the app is not a way to make a good impression
Seems like a cool idea but needs more options.
Love the concept!! Hats Off!!!
Will Test it!

Thanks for the replies!
I really appreciate your replies it's very helpful and i will consider them.
Just wanted to clear the point about the deals , since i got alot of questions about it.
The concept of LineitApp is to draw a line on a map and make some automation when crossing the line.
Now we have developed another app called LineitApp ( Business ) ..
The concept of LineitApp (Business) is to draw a line on a map and send deals ( for example: 50 percent discount on all all the milkshop )
to the customers that are close to the end of the line.
Now, the customers are the people who selected the categories that they liked on LineitApp (For example : FOOD )
That's why you need to choose your favourite categories when you first install LineitApp ( Dont worry you can always modify the categories in the preferences)
LineitApp is here to help not to make it worse. We are working on the app to make it better and better everyday.
We dont like spam , and you will never get spammed with lineitapp since the one that downloaded LineitApp ( Business ) can send only 3 deals per day.
Anyways, If you have any question you can even contect me by email : [email protected]
I don't want to get deals at all , 3 deals per day is also spam . this is why I deleted the app when got the request.

I agree, uninstalled immediately without even trying it. Great concept but would rather pay for an app than have ads.
Good news for everybody!
I'm happy to announce that in the next LineitApp Ther will be some major updates:
1. new sports mode- launch any sports app when you start any sport activity ( such as running, biking etc... )
2. NO MORE ADS AT THE BOTTOM
3. You will have the free will to choose your favourite categories and if you dont want to get HOT deals at all you can disable it
Note: The deals are not spam but rather real deals that happens next to your location with the same categories that you choose.
You can save yourself alot of money when getting this deals.. but that's your choice to decide if you want them or not
Stay tuned untill next LineitApp update

Cool Concept
I like the concept you have here. The app could seriously do with a makeover though. The design of the app makes me feel like I'm holding a gingerbread device. Which is not a great experience. A holo light or dark theme would make it more bearable, but you would do well to take your design inspiration from Android L's material design.
The graphical UI leaves you feeling confused upon entering the app. When it launched I had to sit and wonder what I was supposed to do and still do not feel like I have much of a grasp on navigating through it. Yes it's simple, and simple is good but it's missing too much. We need more information.
The app also should have a search function for places so you can navigate to them faster on the map. This would be helpful with inserting your line with more confidence.
I look forward to seeing this app as it develops!

SCREENS:
Hey guys, you are welcome to put your comments here, we will appreciate it much!
If anyone has suggestions, it would be great, or at least if you say that this app is great
I'll test it out when I go on a hike next. I'll comment my thoughts after I do!
Edit: Okay after installing it and playing for a few minutes I have to say I do like the app. Just a few things I noticed, nothing bad. Just what I feel would make it well polished. No disrespect.
1; You could use a pin to signify my location instead of the android. Pin on a map. Classic.
2; Swiping between tabs would be amazing.
3; When you have a GPS fix and go to the Map tab, it would be nice if it automatically pans to your location. I know you can do this by clicking a location in Saved Locations tab and clicking show on map, but it would be nice for the app to do it automatically just so when you go to the map it shows the area around you if you're exploring new areas around you. Mine always starts over Africa and I have to move it back to NY, USA to get to my location.
Everything else is nice though. I like it. Indeed works offline with no connection. Good app.
RoyJ, Thanks a lot for your review!!!
1) Could be, but just for fun, and better distinguish I use this droid. Because, once you add a lot of locations you will lose your current location in case it will be the same pin (just colored in another way )
2) Yeah, thinking of it, probably will add it
3) You shouldn't choose location in list, you can just tap map tab.
There is option in menu on map tab(bind to me) - this option allow you be always in the center of map.
If fix is available - you will see green line at the top(it is red if GPS is not available). At this moment - just go to the map and bind map to you, it will move with you
Enjoy!
I'm always open to discuss and help if you need it.

1; You could use a pin to signify my location instead of the android. Pin on a map. Classic.
2; Swiping between tabs would be amazing.
3; When you have a GPS fix and go to the Map tab, it would be nice if it automatically pans to your location. I know you can do this by clicking a location in Saved Locations tab and clicking show on map, but it would be nice for the app to do it automatically just so when you go to the map it shows the area around you if you're exploring new areas around you. Mine always starts over Africa and I have to move it back to NY, USA to get to my location.
Everything else is nice though. I like it. Indeed works offline with no connection. Good app.

Unfortunately no, you can't find your phone using Location Detector. I though about implementing such application, but it will be another story.
Location detector is being used for getting back to places you saved, or if you are want to reach some totally unknown places. So you just add it on the map, save to your list, and navigate to the necessary place.

[APP] [GeoReality 2.0] Explore The World Around You Through Your Mobile Camera..

Let me introduce you my latest app GeoReality 2.0, who has reached a whole new level.. You can now explore the area around you and search for nearby places (like restaurants, hospitals, stores, gas stations....) just by a single click, or type a place name or place type to search for it...
And the most important feature of the app that all these places will be shown in reality in front of you through your mobile camera...
In addition to many other features... Try it now you won't regret it, critics and reviews are most welcome...

GeoReality lets you visualize locations placed on the map by showing them in reality through your device camera.
First add your favorite locations by either:
* Selecting them on the map.
* Search for nearby places or use text searching to search for a place name or place type (ATM, Bank,..).
* or Add a specific location by entering its latitude and longitude.
All locations placed on the map will be displayed in front of you through the camera with their real-time distances and bearings according to your present location and direction.
* You can add info to those locations (Address,phone,comments..), and an optional tag picture.
* Click a location marker on the Camera screen to display its info and picture.
* Track a location to know its direction when it goes out of sight, as a simple navigation method.
* Send your location via SMS to someone else who also has the app to add your location on his map, so he can "see" where you are.
* Zoom an area when the locations markers overlaps on the camera screen.
* Pinpoint your own location on the map to reach maximum location accuracy, or use GPS/Network to automatically determine it.
* Locations added to the map will be stored on your device, so no need for permanent internet connection when using the app.
** IMPORTANT NOTES: **
- GeoReality depends on the compass sensor to determine your direction and the selected locations bearings, so if you experience poor compass behavior try calibrating it by waving your device in (∞) shape several times or watch this video to learn how to calibrate the compass:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1EPbAapaeI
- If the device has a cover with a magnetic clip you should remove it, because it will affect the the compass and the app performance.

I like it so much. You could match places to categories, each category could have own colour. You could add a background to the description, because sometimes it is not possible to see information, when background has the same color like a text.

It's really a good idea to let user select the marker color to categorize locations..
hopefully I will include it in the next update
looks good.
cacheing for offline use?
sent from a microwave oven
The app uses the default map caching, because once the locations are added to the map they will be stored in the app database and displayed on the camera screen without the need for internet connection.
you need the map only if you want to add new locations

I've double checked everything regarding the app distribution but I couldn't find the reason why it's not compatible with your device.
Anyway you could download it from this store:

Any suggestion, improvement, problem, bug.... before the next Update??
Check out the new update GeoReality 1.1 with Google Maps search, so you can easily search for your favorite places and add it to your map...

Hey, are you able to add US measurements on it? Even though I know somewhat what the equivalent is for miles vs km but it's just more of a convenience for us in the states. Otherwise your app is simple but effective ?

Looks and sounds great. Reminds me of Google latitude. Been looking for something like this. Unfortunately play store tells me it's not available in my country (Germany). Could you provide the apk, then I'll give it a shot
why is shows "This app is incompatible with all of your devices." i have nexus ????
Hi, tried your app for a few minutes, but I realized that you are focusing on your home country, I am sitting in Germany and could not verify my account. But I must say, the setup and the UI is wonderful. Just the way I would love to see such an app. Way better then google latitude and all the other alternatives. If everything functions as described, then this is really an outstanding well coded app.
I will keep an eye on your app and as soon as you go global I am sure its worth a try. Also if you need a translation into German, I'll translate the strings for you.
Another question I have, what happens after the one month premium test subscription, which option still function after premium subscription ends?
The app says not compatible with OnePlus One running stock Android 5.1.1
Looking forward to try it out
I currently use Glympse for this. I am always open to try another app. This sounds like it is more like what I need. I have 3 teenage daughters. I also use the LOCATOR app provided by SPRINT APP store. This allows me to locate, but, it does so with all sort of notifications and emails, which are not able to bypass. Sometimes I just need to know where my daughters are and not send them a text message saying so without my doing so.
Thank you all for the feedback!!!
I developed this app on Nexus 7,9,10 so I'm not sure why it's saying they are not compatible.
Looks like I need to make this available in other countries!

Please do would love to test it with some other folks here in Germany. Could you also tell me what happens after the premium test month is over, what functions are premium and which aren't and how much it costs.

I'm going to be reworking the entire premium stuff. Currently when premium expires, you have to manually press a refresh button to get the latest data. more of an inconvenience for the user.

Makes sense, if you want to live from this great work of yours, then inconvenience is a must, in order to have users buy premium.

I would like to try this app but I live in France and playstore says that I can't download it. I tried with a vpn or evozi downloader, nothing work :/ If someone is able to provide me the apk I would be grateful
Edit : I managed to get it thx to someone on xda forum apk, if someone need it I can provide the link !
