Android app to track receipts? - General Questions and Answers

I'm looking for a great android app to track receipts with. I recently bought my first home and TONs of home depot trips later I'd like to scan all my receipts and keep track of them, neat receipts style, for when tax time comes around. Any suggestions would be very welcomed I'm feeling very over my head while staring at this box full!

The Google drive update from the market place may include OCR (optical character recognition) which may make your life considerably easier for synching your personal data between mobile and the computer you're likely doing taxes on. If that doesn't work for you try searching the market place for OCR or the words it represents as that will show a few results as well.
Best of luck with your new home and I organization. If ya need a little help with Google drive hit me up and I might know some answers

Apps My wife wants

Hi There!
My wife, a doctor who is still studying, is wondering if there is a way she can use her new android phone to take better quality notes at lectures. Previously she was using a WM65 with Word, and taking text notes, but it was not possible or very difficult to add diagrams, or highlight important words, or draw arrows to particular things. Is there a great quality app that handles taking notes easier? Happy to pay.
Secondly, she has a forerunner watch which won't download her running data such as the track she ran, average speed, etc. Can she use her phone for that data collection and find a nice app to transfer it to her PC to view in a usable format?
We are also lastly looking for a cross platform (Windows 7, Android) shopping list application. Happy to pay, but would prefer one off cost. Needs to be simple and able to be shared across 3 devices nicely.
I think Evernote could do the first and last thing, taking notes, with schemes (maybe, not sure) and make a shopping list, which is cross platform, since you make an account on Evernote's site, and you have the Windows' program and the Android application to keep track, and it's off cost up to a certain storage
Hope I've been of help, just look for Evernote on google!

Help Please: can't find app to create schedule for employees!

Salutations to Everyone!
Thanks for reading my thread and hopefully considering helping me.
I think it's extremely bizarre that I can't seem to find an app to make a simple schedule to display for employees.
All of the apps that I keep finding in the Play Store are tied to online services. A simple schedule is not that serious!
I could easily use Microsoft Excel, but my life's deeply entrenched with Android.
I would even purchase an app. I'm not sure if that's motive for someone to create a simple app? =)
Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated!
Best Regards,
David

If you're happy with a spreadsheet, why not use some "office" app suite? Or you could make a free cloud doc, like in Google docs.

I'm not happy with using just a spreadsheet or office documents.
I *could* use a spreadsheet, but I prefer something designed
specifically for what I need. It's been my experience using office apps
on Android are not the most reliable. Formats get screwy when crossing
devices and/or office programs.
Besides. I'm trying to get a good, simple solution for a friend of mine.
I'm helping her with her restaurant business.
I appreciate your reply though! =)

I'm still not clear on what it is you're looking for. If not a spreadsheet, then what? Something like Microsoft Access? Kind of like the Contacts app?

Shift scheduling. Possibly with additional features.

request for app development - rednotebook

I'm not a programmer or I'd do this in a heartbeat. I use a journaling/note application on linux called Rednotebook. It's on sourceforge, sorry I'm still under 10 posts so I can't post a link.
It is a simple, lightweight, app that you can drop notes, pics, diary entrys, whatever, and easily find them again. Pretty much what evernote does only without the massive bloat and eye-bleed interface. It feels a lot like a personal wiki interface. I use this and evernote and constantly go back to this because it is so much easier to deal with.
I don't know how the author would deal with royalties from the app store but he has indicated on his forums he has no interest in porting to android but would be glad to help someone else do it. I run this on all of my linux system and would buy it in a heartbeat to run on my tablet.
My hope is to be able to run this on all of my systems and export/import it as necessary. A way to sync this securely without putting personal stuff out on the internet somewhere would be icing on the cake but manual would work just fine.
Just putting it out there. I'd definately pay more than the average $1.99 google play app for this port.

need help with w10 universal app

While an admitted novice at development, I am a registered Windows App Developer. I have 1 app currently live in the windows store and I need some help with the one that I am currently working on. What has me a bit hung up is how to best go about making a video library accessible through some type of cloud storage. Those purchasing the app will be given the ability to either access the videos through the cloud or download them from there. The initial app purchase will allow them to choose 5 30 sec clips out of the video library that will contain about 25 to 30 choices. It looks like there should be a fairly easy way to assign tokens to redeem for said videos. I think if you knew the entire concept behind the app you would be able to see the potential for pretty good compen$ation.
Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer,

Barcode to pc scanner app for android

Good day. I don't know if I'm posting in the right place but here goes. I need some help. I am new to app development and I honestly have no idea where to start. I have an app idea and haven't found one like it. It is a app that I really need for myself and would make my life so much easier if it was developed so I thought why not make it myself. I have no real programing knowledge other than basic vbs, basic cmd and basic html coding. This is the plan for my app.
At work we get parts in for our components that need repairing. All the parts have barcode on them so I thought why not speed up my parts checking process by using these barcodes that contain the part numbers to check my parts. The plan is for there to be a computer based program that uses a QR code to link the andriod app and the pc app together over the wifi or Internet. Then on the app you have it using the device camera to scan the barcode in and pass the barcode text to whatever place you have pointed your mouse at in keystrokes much like vbscript sendkeys method. After it scanned there must then be a popup that allows you to enter quantity as some of the items are small with 50 to 100 making scanning that many times just time consuming then after that is complete you can scan again. Also on the scan screen I want the option to manually input the barcode if the barcode has trouble being read. How I see it working is that at he end of the barcode it sends a Tab then after the quantity it sends a Enter. The idea is to use excel and formulas then to calculate parts received from parts outstanding. If someone could be so kind as to assist me or even just help me get starred I will really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance. I do not aim to make money from it just see a flaw that can help me and possibly many other people out there in the world.
I'm no expert. Just a hobbyist. But here is what i do if i have a similar need. You can create a local web server. Have your android app send data to the server. And the server will process the data. And send back data to your mobile app. I usually use apache for this but if you use vbs it might be better to use windows server. Hope this helps point you in the right direction.
