[App][2.3+][BETA] WalkUnlock (Unlock your phone with walking)

[App][2.3+][BETA] WalkUnlock (Unlock your phone with walking) - Android Apps and Games

Hi everybody!
I'm currently developing an App for my semester thesis at ETH Zurich. I'm looking for some new users who like to try it out!
Get it from Playstore!

Description
A lot of people want to use a password to protect their phone, but it is cumbersome to type in your password every time you want to use your phone. Wouldn't it be nice if your phone automatically knows when YOU are carrying it, depending on your biometric data?
Our research at ETH Zurich has shown, that every person has a unique gait pattern which can be used to identify her, like a fingerprint.
WalkUnlock locks and unlocks your mobile phone depending on your gait pattern.
You first have to train WalkUnlock so it knows what your gait pattern looks like. After that WalkUnlock is able to lock and unlock your phone depending on your steps while you're walking. (It doesn't matter how fast you walk.)
If you walk for example to the bus station or to your office, WalkUnlock will automatically recognize you and unlock your phone,
when you use it the next time. If a stranger picks up your phone, WalkUnlock will reject his gait pattern and keeps the phone locked.
Don't worry about getting locked out of your phone completely! If the app doesn't recognize you, you can always type in your password. But when the app recognizes your gait, which is unique to you, you don't have to type in your password and have direct access to your phone.
I'm looking for some new users who are willing to test the App on a daily basis to collect some data, which can help us to improve the algorithm behind the app.
(Don't worry, data will be collected absolutely anonymously and only sent over WiFi!)
Please remember that Walk Unlock is still in a beta phase. The application will be updated regularly.
For bug reports and feedback, please use this thread or contact: [email protected]
Features
- Unlock while walking
- Multiple Profiles (For different gait patterns in your daily routine)
- Wi-Fi unlock
- Sound output for recognized steps and successful unlocking
- Variable security level
Important Notes
WalkUnlock only works on phones with a gyroscope.
WalkUnlock only works when you wear your phone in your front trouser pocket.
The application has been tested with a Google Nexus S under Jelly Bean.
The App may reduce your battery life a bit, so remember to turn it off, if you don't want to use it.
If you want to change your password, you have to do this from within Walk Unlock, NOT in the normal Android Settings.
Reasons why the app might not work
-You're training set is bad (it doesn't reflect your daily walking pattern)
-You're not wearing your phone in your front pocket. WalkUnlock only works in the front pocket.
-Trousers with loose pockets are bad for the step recognition.
-Different shoes may have an impact for the step detection (but not a strong one)
Changelog
v0.3.0
- Added Wi-Fi unlock
- Improved power consumption
- Bugfixes
v0.2.0
- Added Multiple Profile Support
- Bugfixes
v0.1.6
- Bugfixes

That is the silliest idea ever. You can't get into your phone unless you walk at the correct speed?

No, the app doesn't work like that.
You first have to train the application, which means that you first walk around a bit, so the app knows what you're gait pattern looks like.
Every person has a unique gait pattern which differs from person to person, like your finger print or your iris.
After you trained the application, the app knows what your gait pattern looks like and unlocks your phone, only if it recognizes you.
It doesn't matter how fast you walk and you will never be locked out completely, you will always have the ability to type your password if the phone doesn't recognize your steps.
I will update the description to explain this better.
Thanks for your reply.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. It just didn't sound very practical

No problem!
It's not easy to explain what it does exactly.
It's kind of like Faceunlock but with your gait pattern instead of your face.
I updated the description, I hope it's more understandable now. If some of the readers still don't understand what the app does, feel free to contact me!

Would be good if you post a video showing it. Also, it uses accelerometer all the time, right? So battery is having a pain ;/
So the idea is rather good, but I don't use locking generally, mainly because this solution does not solve my problem. Or maybe it will? I will test.
Anyway, I bet coding and whole app must be really very compilcated and time consuming, so I really respect your work.

Thank you for your interest. I will see if I have the time to make a video, I'm on tight schedule, but thanks for the hint.
Accelerometer doesn't run all the time, the app checks for movements in some predefined intervals. Besides that, the sensors itself don't use up much battery, the main problem are the complex calculations on the CPU. I really looked into power consumption and did what I can. Overall the power consumption isn't as bad as you would think. I will do some battery tests to provide more detailed information about that.
If you don't use any passwords at all, the app doesn't bring you any benefit.

Hi, I'll tell you what I think. It is a COOL idea. I always like the ideas for human activity recognition and welcome to such sort of apps. I hope you do well your thesis. I will post my experience after testing the app. Have you posted your app in XDA Android App Tester community on Google+?
Just want to know, do you use activity recognition announced in Google IO 2013 recently? It is very much like your app's work.
Cheers

The idea is good!

Thumbs Up

Hi,
Thank you for your interest!
I haven't posted it yet in the Google+ community, will do that today!
I don't use google's activity recognition. It's an algorithm developed at our University (not by me!), but basically it's the same idea!
Cheers

I just added an additional Wifi-Unlock functionality. You can now save your frequently used Wi-Fi networks and WalkUnlock automatically unlocks your phone when your connected to these Wi-Fi networks. This also drastically improves power consumption of WalkUnlock.
Cheers

[APP] AppShare v1.0.4 - Share Apps, Not Links!

This is quite interesting and would be very helpful tocpeople developing apps to send them to testers.
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk

I can't WAIT to try this. I am not a developer but I've always invisioned an app like this. Gonna test it out right now on my wifes G2!

I tested the app and except for a few force closes it works as advertised. On occassion I had to resend an app several times for it to upload to my wifes non-rooted G2 but in the end she received it. This is an awesome app. Great jod "damageless"!! MyTouch 4G running CM7 2.3.4

Excellent application idea. Have you considered adding protection to prevent the distribution of paid or secured applications?

How would this work with copy protected apps, which is a lot of them?
Is the idea to only get this to work with free apps that are not protected at all?

If a developer is concerned about distribution of paid apps, even basic DRM will stop sharing via the app in the OP.
While this is a nice idea, it puts phones and user data at risk. Sharing apps from non-developer authorized distribution points leads to the spread of malware, and piracy.
Scenario that makes this app a bad idea.
Friend a Grabs AWESOME FIGHTING ROBOT game off rapid share, unknown to him this game gains root access (via embed exploit), steals data and makes the phone part of a botnet.
Friend b sees friend a playing the game, it looks awesome!. Friend a) uses this app to share the game to friend b (being from a non authorized source in the first place), friend b runs game and becomes part of the botnet.

Good point. Luckily, however, you can apparently disable automatic hands-off installation.

is this the according market page: market.android.com/details?id=com.goldtouch.appshare&feature=search_result (cant post links..)
I am wondering about the strange logo

That isn't the market page. It was forced off the market because Google essentially didn't like how people could send apps to anybody so easily. They told me that because not everybody has implemented DRM that I couldn't put it in there. Anyways, rather than put it to waste I decided to post it here. If you let me know of any force closes (tell me how it happened) then I would be happy to fix them and post an update. Please share it with your friends so that I have a reason to keep it alive. Yes, this app could potentially be used for bad things, but it wasn't intended for that purpose. I actually built it so that I could send apps to the lady that does my graphic design so that she could see how things look and send me updated graphics. I have a way around sending copy protected apps, but I currently have the feature disabled (because I thought Google would let me post it if I disabled it, but no luck). Anyways, let me know if you have any feature requests, problems, or anything at all. Thanks!

pls, can you explain the option "use service - instead of activity" ?
And why need the app reading contact data?

Sure. There is a feature that allows you to save access ID numbers to your contact list so you don't have to remember them. It is on the second screen. That is all that it is used for.
The using service preference lets you upload using a service instead of an activity. So it will say "app sent" and upload to the person in the background instead of making you wait.
No personal information is stored at all. Please let me know if you have other questions. Thanks!

Hi, love the idea of this app but can not install on my wifes x10i keep getting a parsing error yet it installed fine on my galaxy s I am guessing its because my wife is running eclair and i'm on froyo is froyo the minimum requirement for this app? thanks

Eclair is the minimum requirement. The reason you would be getting a parsing error is if the apk is corrupted. You will need to recopy the apk over.

This app clearly has no purpose apart from distribution of warez!

Yeah that's a negative ghost rider, by itself the app has nothing to do with warez. Go troll somewhere else.

Thanks for the reply damageless and I disagree that this app has no purpose for example my wife does not install stuff on her phone thats my job I was able to send her a train timetable app while she was away from home at the train station so very handy for that situation

Not true that this was ever built or meant for warez. I actually built this app so that I could send apps I'm working on to my graphic designer easily.

nice idea / work!!

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!

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.

We are removing the premium features completely in the next release. This application will be entirely free. forever.

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 !

[APP][4.2+] Speedr v1.0 - Does speeding in your car really save time?

Hey everybody. I just published my first Android app in the Play Store (first time posting code to xda too). It's called Speedr, it calculates how much time, or how little time, you save by speeding in your car. Check out the app+GitHub and leave me some feedback for v2.0!

Neat idea.
Questions: Does it do any kind of logging? If so can that be disabled?
I ask because I know if I were to get pulled over I wouldn't want the cops to have any extra evidence against me.

Only app crash reports, device info, and anonymous usage statistics are sent to me for the purpose of making the app better. Personal info, speed data, speed limit data, and time saved data is not sent to me. Privacy policy is located here. Right now there is not an opt out feature. I do plan on adding an opt-out toggle in a future release once I get some more free time to develop.

ok this sounds funny and fun i will try it out.

I will definitely be downloading this.
Ever thought to add an estimate of how much more gas you're burning by speeding?

Yes! That would be a great feature. Maybe I could find stats on car models' gas consumption rates. Then have the user enter their car model so I can calculate the extra money that speeding costs. Even if speeding does save you time it may not be worth it due to the extra gas costs.

Just an idea -- if you can poll the list of bluetooth pairings (including active one(s)), you could then tell the cars apart by their BT mac.

That's a brilliant idea. UI is neat, minimalist. I like it. I can suggest adding backup option for history, sync with Google Drive, etc.

Very Cool, I like the ideas already coming in!
If your app takes off, google should buy it and integrate it into navigation or google now!
I can see the google assistant saying "speeding will save you X amount of time, but you will spend X$ more than usual on your commute" haha!

I've got a problem I don't know how to solve. I created HERE Maps dev account to get more acurate speed limits but I don't know how to eneter app id and so on. I typed it in but it has not been saved, there is no login button whatsoever. How do I do that? (Great idea for the app by the way)

Open the settings of the app. Put the appid and apptoken in there. Then, to make sure your account is activated click the "HERE MAPS" button at the top of the screen so switch from OpenStreetMap to HERE. Now on the main screen you should see the HERE logo like in this screenshot.

I came up with that myself to be honest but when I go to the settings page again the App ID is not showing, so I assumed it's not working. So, if the HERE symbol is on the front page, then everything is set up correctly?

Integrate with Driving Mode?
This is a cool idea! Will be trying it out this weekend for sure.
I was just wondering if it was possible to auto recognise when driving mode is enabled/disable and therefore start and stop recording?

[APP][6.0+] Looxie: Location-based photo requests

Get Looxie from the Play Store!
Looxie is a location-based photo request app that I released back in 2016. The premise is simple: you go on the map, select a location you want a photo from and send your request to that location. Any users within one kilometer will receive the request and they can respond by sending you a photo.
The big twist? They can only send photos by actually taking them with their camera: gallery uploads are not allowed. Practically, this means that any photo you receive was taken seconds earlier and essentially is a real-time depiction of that location. The practical applications are numerous (Is the sea choppy? Is the bar I want to go to packed? Is there a lot of traffic on the A2? What's up in the Mongolian steppe right now?) but it's also really exciting to simply know that the photo you got depicts something at the other side of the world as it is right now.
Late last year, I decided that the app looked positively archaic, so I went ahead and rebuilt/redesigned it from the ground up to make it prettier and faster. I think the redesign is very successful and the app is indeed much faster and much easier to use.
Here is what it looks like:
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I will probably be adding some premium features as a very cheap subscription (full-res photo downloads, for example) in the hopes that they'll at least cover the Firebase costs but anybody who registers an account by August 9th, 2019 will get all premium features for free.
I will be happy to answer your questions and read your comments!

Bumping the thread with actual links. I'll be around to answer any questions and respond to comments.

Really liking this app. Now I am getting requests one after the other from the same user. It would be nice if there was a cool-down time, I'd say, once every 2hrs between requests times from the same user

Amazing idea but..
1. When I use the search function, I can't actually click on a photo to be able to view it and zoom in. All it does when I click that it switches to the next photo and the same happens with Sent Looxies.
2. No full screen viewing available!
3. Settings is grayed out and I can't access it?
4. I can't view the likes of a certain image!
5. I am getting a ton of requests of user NewbieTown, is it a bot?

When i click the camera button to take a picture it opens the stock camera(xiaomi) but I don't really like the pictures from it so I use a google camera port , do you think it's possible to choose from the camera app?

Hey! You should be able to use any camera app you want. I'm almost never using the stock Pixel camera, instead I use something some effects, like Vignette or Cameringo.

Hey, thanks! Totally my fault for not communicating this more clearly in the app but each of these requests are actually from a different user. Whenever a new user signs up, they have the option of sending a first contact request, ie. send a request to every user in the world (just once).
So what happened is that with the sudden influx of users (due to the XDA feature) LOTS of people got to use their first contact requests and everybody was flooded with those things. I should absolutely find a way to combat that but I don't want to take the first contact functionality away from new users. The problem will eventually solve itself, of course, when things go back to normal, with 3-5 registrations per day.

Amazing idea but..
1. When I use the search function, I can't actually click on a photo to be able to view it and zoom in. All it does when I click that it switches to the next photo and the same happens with Sent Looxies.
2. No full screen viewing available!
3. Settings is grayed out and I can't access it?
4. I can't view the likes of a certain image!
5. I am getting a ton of requests of user NewbieTown, is it a bot?

Hello there.
You are right on every count, the app is pretty frustrating right now. This is partly down to the fact that it's a ground-up rewrite, so some functionality that was there in the old app is still missing but also due to the fact that I'm a lone developer working on it after 10-hour marathons in my day job, right after I manage to put my 2-year old son to sleep. I still love it, though. Let me answer your questions one by one.
1. All of the functionality you're describing is coming within the month. I'm taking a much-needed two-week off from work so I'll be able to focus on Looxie almost exclusively.
2. Also coming soon!
3. I know I sound like a broken record, but also coming soon. I have quite of bit of stuff to put in there, it won't take too long.
4. At this point you know the answer.
5. Nope, totally not a bot. It's new users signing up and using their first contact request (which they can use only once). Thingss should go back to normal, with about 5 first contact requests per day. Just give it a bit of time.
Thanks for your comment, I wanted to clear some of this stuff up anyway!

Thanks for the quick reply, I've edited the Google Play rating of the app to 5 stars.
However, you should've mentioned that the app has features that are still being optimized.

Possible to run on microg?
Love the app, just switched to a phone with lineageos 16 and microg. When I enter my username and password, it just hangs logging in. I then tried backing up the app on my old phone with adb backup then restored it to my new phone. The first time I started looxie, I was logged in and could see the feed. Now everytime I start the app, I get an empty feed that never updates. Also, my username is not displayed in the menu. Any ideas on how to get it working with microg?

Hey Jeff! I've never tested the app on a device with microg, unfortunately. Unless the microg package includes an implementation of FirebaseAuth, I cannot see it working. I'll need to check and see though, so stay tuned. If you're the Jeff from the app, it's nice to see you here, thanks for all the awesome photos :good:

Thanks, It looks like microg doesn't support FirebaseAuth currently, there are a few issues in github for it. I'll try agian when they have it supported.

Hi, A bit about myself and this project. I made this account 5 years ago but only lurked around the forum. I have strong interest in programing but don't really have the chance to actually learn it. When I was finally fed up the job I had at the time, I decide to just follow my passion and learn it. I start out probably like most people, just make some projects . There's a game called Another Eden that I was really hooked on so I made some simple macro program for it. The game is a bit more complex than regular mobile game. Each player would have different party and different way of approaching a stage so you need the user to input their party, what skill they want to use, etc... So it's a simple input then output program. At first it was just a console program that glue string together. I learned WPF and the next version has an UI. Then after realizing that there's lots of people similar to me who like to make macros, the next version which called EMM ( Easy Macro Maker) is borned. The idea is simple, the program lets you make macros with an easy-to-use interface. The macros made by one user must be compatible with any devices so it can be shared and I made a companion web app that let people upload their creations and others can download from.
I then interested in mobile development and realized that there's not a single usable macros maker on the market. Most of them is autoclicker that can barely execute more than 10 instructions, the advanced one requires you to code or super shady. So I just thought I can make something better and here we are. Macrorify is a new macros maker app that i can confidently say: it's better than everything you've ever used.
This app has:
Auto Click obviously, long clicks, double clicks, delay, randomize every coordinate, ....
Full gesture capability. You can create any gestures with up to 10 fingers (max number for most touch screen). Drag drop, pinch, zoom, you name it.
Record and replay that can be edited, mixed and matched freely, play at different speeds and even randomize every points in it
Feature powerful Image Detection and Text Recognition. You can click on an image when it appear or hook a callbacks to react when it appear/disappear. Basically if-else logic: "if image appears then do something otherwise do something else, if that something else success then continue or do other things...."
Everything can be done in an easy-to-use interface. You don't need to know one bit of code.
You can build your own custom UI: A popup that appear at the start to let other user config your macros.
The heart of the app is EMScript, which is a new programing language I made specificly for Macrorify. Like i said previously you don't need to know how to code but code is there for people who can and it's optional so if you have the skill then you can technically do anything with it.
True to my ideal with the original program EMM. The macros made by the app must be compatible with every devices so the app features a very powerful auto scaling system that will scale your macro at run time so it'll works on any devices regardless of resolution.
The web app I made for the original program now built right into the app, that means you develop in the app, upload in the app. And for those who don't feel like putting in the work, you can just download pre-made macros from other users right in the app with just one click.
You thought this was over? But it has even more QOL in it:
The app can auto turn off the screen to save battery life when you grind
It can pause and resume macros (I wonder why every app does not have this feature)
Change the click size radius
You can limit the number of items shown on the screen
Every actions can be run individually so when testing, you don't have to rerun the macro as a whole everytime (this is one feature of the old program as well). Basically unit testing.
It can take screenshot for you (for image detection)
There's actually a lot more ideas but i didn't have the time to put in, gotta leave something to update.
I put a lot of works in so don't mind if I monitize it a little. The "making" part is totally free to use, you can make as many macros as you like, store as many macros as Integer.MAX.
"Play" a macro will consume a point called Reputations at the rate of 1 hour/point. The best part though it can be earned. When you upload macros, you will receive an initial Reputations, and when others download your macros you also receive their Reputations (You can specify how many Reputations you would like from other users). By my calculation, if you just have just one popular macros and lots of user using them then you'll have so many Reputations that "Play" restriction doesn't mean anything. So it's a reward system, macro developer can technically use the app for free and normal user pay for it (packs or premium pass). Fair?
In the first week, i also remove that restriction so even if you're normal user, it's free to use with little to no restriction (the other is just a restriction on how many first-time-download you can have on an account but it only matter if you download lots of them)
Anyway, check out the app in Google Play: Google Play
(I did the description like an interview. What do you think?)
Check the documentation: https://www.kok-emm.com/docs
It explains everything, even how to code
My past self probably couldn't believe that i would have a thread in xda apps. Anw, If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment. I'll try my best to anwser them

I know this isn't the usual xda app but no one tried yet?

I have tested it. I could create a macro for Digimon reArise to auto-farm, and works quite well. The most difficult part was to use the Image/text detection. When using an image the app send me an error, but using the text recognition worked for me quite well. Taking into account I'm not software engineer or something like that, the app is quite understandable and accesible. Nice app! Congratulations.

Hello Kingofknights
thanks a lot for your app... i haven't tested it yet... but i'll do soon.
i'll certainly purpose some interesting updates for the future...
but first... i have to test it...

Great work here @Kingofknights ! I watched the tutorial in full, and set up multiple image detection zones.
I was unable to get the scenario working where the hit boxes would operate asynchronously in a multiple match, loop always setting. I guess the run logic would keep looping inside the first zone?
Ideas on how to get it working?

Hi tamers, mind share with me your setup for auto farm..

Gday, @Kingofknights , outstanding work you did. This is definitely the most advanced click automating app I have ever seen, I am trying my best to learn how to use it now. I might give up, if not, I will tell you if I succeed.
Thanks for your code!

Thanks. Check out the Discord if you need help

Hi, I've been using your app with great succes. However, after the 7days trial, I started a subscription, yet it's still stopping the macro from running because I run out of reputations. I thought the app would keep running if you choose to subscribe?

ความเร็วสูงสุดของการตรวจจับภาพอยู่ที่อัตรา Sacn หรือไม่? และอัตราการสแกนสูงสุดคือเท่าไร?

Dou desuka?

Can you make the app api 17? For android 4.2 compatibility (or just try to do with root privilegies)
