I like apps that are free, and without any "unnecessary" permissions.
This is my take on a Compass / Barometer app.
The Barometer can lock to the current pressure and display your relative change in height.
The Compass is fairly simple.
Both apps support all screen sizes & rotations.
Any suggestions to improve things?

(as this is my first post)
search for "de.uvwxy.compass" / "de.uvwxy.barometer" on the play store.

Hello, I want to introduce the Hold Screen ON app.
Bring a little bit of SGSIII opportunities to your phone
This application act as service and use front camera of your phone for human face detection. When the face is detected, the application will prevent the locking of phone's screen. Just keep the screen on while you are looking on it.
Key features:
This application uses your phone's camera only during the face scanning. By default, it is 3 frame every 5 seconds. Between these intervals, you can run any other application which can lock up and use the camera.
If your front camera have low resolution or small viewing angle, you can use eyes detection instead of face detection. Or all toghether.
The app can detect the phone rotation and respectively rotate image.
This is a Lite version. Therefore, application service's activity will be stopped after 10 minutes of continuous operation. Just restart the service, when it happens.
Requirements:
Android 2.3+ device with frontal camera

And the last:
I myself am the owner of the Note and often use my application. I think many will be interested in it. Of course, I am pleased to hear all your suggestions and comments
I used a similar app called ISeeYou and to be honest it didnt work so well for me,
Does this one work perfectly ? Dont want to be buying apps that dont do the job
Just try it and decide I post link to the free version. Unlike the ISeeYou, I use opencv library with face and eyes detections cascades. The benefits is a eyes detections (in addition to face detection). Disadvantages is apk size - now about 4 MB.
Update:
Version 1.27 is released.
New features and fixes:
Application binding: now you can describe app behaviour on all or one apps running.
Minor and major bug fixed
Hi trying the app now. It does not work in low light condition on the Note.
Any suggestions
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
how is the battery usage with it?
Sorry, but in low light conditions any face detections app is lost. I try to improve detection algorhytms, but it can take some time.
About battery drain - mostly depends on scan interval. When screen goes off, the worker thread stops - run only when screen on (depends on app binding rules).
v1.32 is released
Version 1.32 is released.
New features:
Native (Android) face detection method implemented
Image histogram normalization was inplemented

Hi!
Make use of the built-in pressure sensor of your device!
It's a Barometer and altimeter app that also supports DashClock widget. Now you can track pressure trends with your device!
Features:
- Holo dark theme.
- Swiping between screens.
- Charts - 12h, 24h, 2 days, 4 days 7 days and 14 days.
- Resizable widget (Android 4.1+) showing current pressure and trends.
- Data exporting to a .csv file (supported by MS Excel etc.)
- Dash Clock Extension
- Customizable
- NO ADS
Pressure data are provided by a built-in pressure sensor. Internet connection is not required.
If you set your ICAO code (can be found here: http://www.mapping.com/airportcodes.shtml) the app will download the QNH from the nearest airport to provide more accurate altitude values.
It's great for para gliders, those who like hiking in mountains etc. - you can record your altitude and export it to a .csv file.
Get it on GooglePlay - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.baggus.barometr
Feel free to comment.
It's free and has no ads. It's not a commercial app. I've made it for myself and thought I would share it.

Hi,
it says application not compatible on the playstore.
What rom do you use?
I believe it's a common bug with devices working on CM based roms that users can't download it from GP, but it work fine if it's installed from an apk file.
http://www.speedyshare.com/WWCZ6/Barometr.apk you can download it here.
I'm currently using stunner 2 which is a cm10.1 ROM.
Thank you for the link.

I know there are several apps available for measuring distances on a map - but this one actually looks good
It uses the Google Maps API v2 with all the cool features like 3D models etc. from the official Google Maps app. Additionally, Maps Measure also takes advantage of the new KitKat "translucent system decor" feature (transparent status & navigation bar).
You can access the "drawer menu tab" (see screenshots) by swiping from the left like in Google Maps or by clicking on the text in the top center of the screen. On tablets, the bar is always visible in landscape mode.
Otherwise, using the app is as easy as it can be: just tab on the Map to add a point, tab again to add a second and the app will tell you the air-line distance between those too. Add a third and the map can measure the area (if you chose so from the menu).
Hidden feature: Longpress on the trash icon to delete all points
Oh, and it's open source, like all apps requesting the INTERNET permission should be...

Good one j4velin.
Used Delayed Lock for a long time. Glad to see you're still working on new projects.
