Nice very simple and bright ui following the Google card design very well organized love that the different "interests" are just a wipe away from each other rather than all jumbled up together very nice

Thanks! Do you feel that the loading time is very slow? I am loading the title of all the topics at start, if you feel that it takes a lot of time to load then I will do a section wise loading, It will load only when the user moves to that e.g If the users is at javascript and moves to android then at that time it will load android.
Should I do it like that?
Thanks

Runs great on at s3, though I would like to suggest having tabs for the different categories within each interest, if you like I can see about getting a pic of what I'm talking about together and upload it

Yea sure, I would love to see the pic, and what categories do you suggest should I put there?
Thanks

They will be in the pic, I will follow the current theme for it too however I would like to also post a pic of a darker theme for it as well for your consideration of course it will be just a modified pic and I would not be doing any edits to the app it's self

Thanks! I will implement that in the next update, I am planning to implement machine learning on the server side to classify articles based on the type (e.g App, Tutorial, News etc.)

Looks cool, will give it a try.
Actually, I could use a version for a Desktop. I use Pulse there more than on the phone.

Thanks!
I am working on a webapp version, which will allow you view this on your desktop/laptop.

great app!
some issues:
1. there are some duplicates in all feeds.
2. need more hi-res icon. current looks blurry.
3. sometimes chashes => asks for my feeds again and again

nice
I like it. It's a nice app great UI love Holo design. I did notice you aren't decoding the characters in the titles when you display them. Apostrophe's and quotes come out as url encoded. Also if you have the time I'd like to see a dark theme. Personally I just like reading text on a black background better than white. Keep up the good work :]
also +1 for the hi-res icons and filtering duplicates. I hate seeing reposts from blog to blog and such.

Trying out the app and I ran into an issue. I tried to open an article on my Verizon GS4 and Ken crashed. What I saw was a black screen for a little bit (about 5 seconds or so) and then Ken reloaded and showed the headers. I have attached the pertinent information for the logcat in the code box.

First time loading an article took quite some time and there was no way to tell if Ken was working or had crashed again. So I would suggest a loading symbol if it takes a bit to get the article.
Some articles are truncated. There might be nothing you can do about this but there is no link to the full article (I've noticed this in the Java category) so I can't read the rest of the article and have no idea where the article is coming from. On the articles that are truncated the full screen of the device is not used to show the article. So, if I zoom in on the text I can fill up about half of the screen and then the article gets cut off.
Please add a dark theme. I think that will look much nicer with your chosen color.
Thanks for making the app. Really good idea and something I will use quite often.

Thanks for pointing out the errors, I will fix them asap. I found a way to prevent the truncation, but for that I'll have to switch to EC2, I will do it in a couple of days, and then you can see all the articles in full view.
You can try "view in browser" to view the truncated article for now.
Thanks again.

[App]Llama - Location Aware Mobile Application

Hey guys,
I've been playing about with android for about a year now and I've written this app. It's a location and time-based profile application, so you can set ringer volume, vibrate mode and ring tones for when you are asleep or at work.
It's like an extremely light-weight version of Locale with very few features
Eventually I'll put it on the Market, so I'm trying to figure out if there's going to be enough interest for it.
-Would you pay 60p-£1 ($1 to £1.50) for it?
-If I put it on there as free and ask people to donate, will enough people bother at least to cover the Market fee... do people actually donate beer-money if they know they can get it for free?
-Let me know of any bugs or suggestions (Note: I'd like to keep it simple, if you want lots of features, then I'd suggest a different app)
-This version will expire mid February. I'll hopefully have decided how I want to proceed with it after mid February.
Cheers all!
Usage Instructions:
Llama comes with a predefined set of Profiles, but you can customise these.
Llama uses 'events'. Each event has a set of conditions and actions. When all of the conditions are met, the actions are run. Llama comes with some default events, but you can customise them appropriately. One of the events is named 'Quiet at night', and is based on the fact that you are at home, and the time is after 10pm. This means that when it is late and you are at home, it will turn the ringer to a lower volume. However, if you are at the pub and it's after 10pm, it will leave the ringer alone (NOTE: this is assuming that your home and the pub are suitably far away. Llama works best in built up areas with lots of phone masts). You can also create an event that disables/enables APN mobile data, so your phone isn't pointlessly checking your email overnight
Llama uses no data whatsoever, so you have to teach it the IDs of the phone masts near your home and workplace. Doing this is easy. Just go to the 'Areas' tab and long-press to tell the app to 'start learning' your home or workplace. Tell it how long you plan to be at home or work and it'll make a note of the phone masts that it finds. Then do the same for when you are at work.

Go get it from the market now
Looks good - I'll have a play and report back any feedback
It'd be handy to be able to turn wifi on/off at certain locations - no point having it on in the office when there's no open wifi to connect to.
Any chance of an option to hide the notification icon from the titlebar (show it only shows in the dropdown?)
Thinking some more, it'd be handy to be able to have location categories - something like:
* Home (category)
- My house
- Parents house
* Work
- London's office
- Cambridge office
That way I can have events assigned to "home" or "work" without having to duplicate rules, or merge multiple locations together.
I've added a WiFi toggle. I'll have a think about the area grouping. The point of the notification is so you can see what profile is active by the number of dots on the icon. You can completely hide the icon in the settings. I'm not certain that Llama is the kind of application you need constant access to via the notification bar.
This reminds me of sman application which was there on my p910i. I have been lookinh for this.
Will it be possible for you to add triggering some event such as sms or ringtone. ?

Ack. As far as I can tell it's been deleted now (at least I couldn't find the fake version when searching) - Do you still have plans to release this? I'm finally using it properly now I'm back at work and have found it to work perfectly so far, so it'd be a shame for it to expire on me now.
I'd happily pay £1 for it

I emailed the bloke and he removed it. I also reported it to Google who haven't done much about the rest of his probably stolen apps/themese. He's DavinciDevelopers by the way. If anyone's bored, buy his apps, give them 1 star, then refund
I'm still not 100% sure if I'll release it, but it's likely I will in some form. I need to decide about whether to have it as just a paid version or free+donate. There's still 3 weeks before it expires, and I'll happily extend that if I haven't decided by then.
Cool - glad you've not lost heart after that
I noticed another issue - there doesn't seem to be a way of removing a cell from a location - I accidentially added a cell to both "Home" and "Work". Ended up deleting and recreating the "Home" location.
This is using the (1.20101226) build, as I didn't get a chance to grab the newer version
Yep, known issue I'll probably add an item to the long-press menu to remove a cell from an area.
That does have the downside that you have to have seen the cell recently to remove it. If I just show the cell IDs in an area, then you wouldn't know which to remove.
Any way you could use the Google APIs to get a vague description of the antenna location?
Though I'm happy with just spotting it in the recent list, as that's where I accidentally added it

So is this basically just your version of Tasker?
Tasker is an application for Android which performs Tasks (sets of Actions) based on Contexts (application, time, date, location, event, gesture) in user-defined Profiles, or in clickable or timer home screen widgets.

Pretty much. It started out as a university project 5 years ago on Series 60, and I reimplemented it when I switched to android. There's plenty of apps already like it on the market, so I don't want to completely replicate the functionality of Tasker.

That'd mean it would need to use data. Llama's unique "selling" point at the moment is it doesn't need any data and it just sits there looking at cell tower IDs

Say hello to Jetpack, a better app drawer [Updated!]

My first Android app, mostly to fix a lack of vertical launchers in the Market. I'd love to know what you think of it!
Upcoming updates
First priority: hiding apps.
Second priority: running apps and more
Update: Added an icon to indicate apps in external storage.

Third priority: long press menu (app info and whatnot)

JetPack is an app launcher that is scrollable like Contacts: slide to the right letter and pick your app! Simple, efficient and much easier to read than a grid layout.
{
"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"
}
Jetpack is an application drawer replacement that can be used with your favorite launcher. Instead of using the standard grid layout, Jetpack displays your apps in a list to make them easier to find. Just like in Contacts, you can use the scrollbar to get to a specific letter in the list.
This application is not a home replacement, only an application launcher. To use it, create a shortcut on your home screen or your dock.

Now if you put there keyboard with T9 searching, that will be good idea! (Like in Touchpal Dialer for example, but for apps).
I had the same idea! That being said, it's my first app and I need to practice a bit.
I quite like it. It's a bit laggy but I think that's due to the sheer amount of apps I have installed. It's certainly quicker to load than appdrawer.
What I think will make this better is to have letters running along side, it should make jumping to the apps much quicker. In case you don't know what I'm taking about, have a look at ios and miui contacts.
Thank you for the work you put in on this, I will be using it myself .
Best of luck with the development.
I like the idea.
Things I wish to brainstorm:
1)
on the right there's so much space. It's cool and fine, but perhaps something can be done with it...
for example, based on already logged infos (just the ones BetterBatteryStats uses), you could show a mini-icon on the right of those apps who are wakelocking too much. This way, users know which apps do tey need to report/look for a replacement, easy.
Concept is:
Your app is all about the apps. Perhaps, it could be even more, by providing slick, non-intrusive, only-where-needed informations.
2)
an option to add a (very) little more padding between rows
3)
an option to 1.5x icons size
4)
For particular apps, like gMail, an icon to go directly to "Compose new mail", maybe only text, maybe even only when the 1.5x option os on.
Nice app and idea. A bit of lag on tmobiles galaxy s2. Also a letter selection would be good like on stock touchwiz.
——————————
Deebo took your bike too?
It does have some lag but i think that I'd because off the transparency, you might want to try going without or at least having an option. I've noticed the same thing with themes that have a transparent background in various menus that seem to lag but when i go back to an opaque theme its smooth. But other than that its very nice. I can see this bring my app drawer replacement.
Some suggestions!
Add the ability to completely replace the app drawer with it.
Increase icon and text size.
Add the letters on the side like in contacts.
Add searching to the features.
Add a background option.
Optimize it a bit. Slightly laggy on my Motorola Photon.
Still a great start! I cannot wait for it to become more known!

this is quite nice thus far...
my only suggestion would be to have the ability to hide apps....
That would have been my second priority (after performance is fixed), but it seems search takes the cake. I also want to hide a few apps in there.

1.1 is now up on the Android Market. If it's not yet updated in your browser, use the download link in the first post.
Good update. Just a suggestion for faster search. When pushing the searchbutton insted of a searchbar there is a grid with letters that shows, then you just tap the letter for the app name your looking for. Kinda like windows phone 7 has for contacts.
Thanks

That's on my priority list! I also noticed searching is too many taps away. Instead I might just pop the keyboard or use T9 to "dial" apps.

[App] Meta Widget - Create widgets from website snippets - Now with Widget Maker

META WIDGET
Meta is a unique app that can turn virtually any online content into dynamic, interactive widgets.
Simply browse to a website, pick a column of text, link or image and enjoy this information right on your home screen!
Why is this cool you ask? Because almost anything can be parsed out of a website - images, blogrolls, RSS feeds or entire windows.
Any widget created through Meta can be customized and automatically updated, or updated on user interaction.
Features
★ Create widgets from almost any website element
★ Parse graphs and images
★ Extract statistics and information from authorized sites
★ Configure widgets (background, alignment, etc.)
★ Automatic updates
★ User defined click actions
★ Lots of other cool stuff
Status
The app is currently quite stable, but we still prefer to call it a beta. So please, do write to us with suggestions or bug reports!
Play Store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.metawidget
The free app has everything but automatic updates. Please buy the Key - that would help us a lot
Screens
Widget Maker
We also make a companion app called Widget Maker. It allows you to staple together many widgets, including Meta Widgets:

Hmm... i just tried on three devices (hc, ics, cm9) and the keyboard pops up fine when clicking the login field.
Can you please try another site? Or maybe a reboot? We use the webkit browser and its not flawless so the keyboard hiding we do at first run may be screwing with it.
Lets see if we can fix this for you.
1.0.2.1
Fixed keyboard issue present on some phones
Fixed image cache optimization (much faster now)
Fixed a rendering issue that occurs if data connection is lost
Fixed a few device-specific issues from user feedback

This is awesome. Tried to make some widgets, but i don't have so much ideas. Anyway the keyboard sometimes don't work, i must exit and start again, and sometimes back button doesn't go to previous page but exit the widget config. A possible overall preview would be nice(maybe full screen preview) since i make some changes and don't know how the widget will look. Another thing that i noticed is that when i select an element, in selection section it shows on center and nice aligned on every row, but when i put it on homescreen it's just one row after another. Here it's an e.g:
Selection:
---------
###
---------
**
Homescreen:
-------###------**
Also would be possible to take whole div, not only an element from that? I tried to take a div that contains some text and an image, but only the text was selected. This is a nice piece of work, keep up the good work.

Hi. Thanks. If you like it, please leave a comment on the play store - at this early junction good reviews will help us spend more time making things better
Regarding the preview - its in the works, though it is pretty complex to do. We will use our Prepaid Widget as a template, so you can have a look at that if you want a a preview of how thew preview will look...
Re many elements. ATM its only possible to select one at a time. We are working on an internal launcher which will allow you to move all the elements around. Its slated for release this month.

Review added on market. This would be huge, if you can implement multiple elements. Select one, two ore w/e elements and move them around, awesome!
Just something that i forgot to ask, sometimes it takes up to 150MB RAM, usually 50~60MB isn't a bit much?
Pretty awesome app. I can't for the kufe of me figure out how to set the widget on my desktop. I assume I need the paid app. Most likely user error I'm just dumb lol.

It's a widget. Long press on homescreen, search for MetaWidget and start configure it:
- Enter a website, select an element(click on it then use the arrows from bottom to select between multiple elements)
!!! make sure you have the checkbox from bottom-left ticked !!!
- Click on the plus sign near the ticked box to select that element and go to widget preference screen.
- Configure the text alignment, size, background color, w/e...
- Click OK , select widget size then select OK again, and you'r done.

We will implement multiple elements soon when our widget constructor comes out. Within two weeks the beta will be up.
Re ram - this is because of images. And of course the cache of the webkit browser, which once closed is shunted out of ram.
On modern devices this isnt a problem though...

Zuzzle is a revolutionary new puzzle and logic-game for your Android smartphone.
It combines the fun and competing parts of many different games. The idea is easy, but are you able to clear the game-field even with the most difficult gamemode?
The game is perfect for short breaks or even longer time periods. It has a simple autosave
function so you can always exit/start the game without loosing your previous gamefield.
Functions of Zuzzle:
- Intuitiv UI
- It combines all new ICS-Stuff even for PRE-ICS devices
- Great user experience
- Different designs
- - Love black, or are you a lover of light themes? No problem!
- - The gamefield can be set to 13 different color-schemes
- Fast. The game was tested on older devices. It's fast!
- Many different settings
- Many different gamemodes so it will never get boring
- - Tried all different gamemoes? You can create your own too!
There is much more, but find it out yourself!

I love number puzzles and I'm playing it, but don't really have a clue what the goal is. I know I'm supposed to clear the board, and the help gives some examples, but I don't fully understand the rules behind the examples. I get the "same values" one, but it seems to only accept those totaling 10 if we are adding, even though something in the help seemed to suggest multiplication to me (the reference to 2X 2 and 8"). It would be nice if there was some animated tutorial that walked you though a simple game play showing the goals and how to accomplish them - particularly in relation to tiles that are not immediately adjacent to each other. Some of the diagonal pairs were just guesses on my part.
Also, when I finished, it said "This is your1. game." Needs some grammatical and punctuation help there. And it would be nice if you explained what "useful features" one would get for logging into SWARM.

Hey.
Thanks for your comment.
I tried to put as much as possible in the sample-image but yeah a animated tutorial would be better for the user, you are right. It's still very difficult to great such a tutorial.
The goal is to clear the field right. You can combine fields with the same number or numbers with a total of 10 like 2 + 8, 4 + 6. I think that you haven't seen one part of the info-example. You can combine two numbers over multiple lines if there is no field in-between like this example:
1 4 5 6 _ 2 _
_ 2 _ _ _ _ _
Here you can combine the 2 and 2, because the second 2 is the next neighbor of the first 2 (you read from left to right) It's quite difficult to describe this.
But thanks for the above idea. I think i'll add the option to multiply 2x5 to get 10. (Not for classic gamemode but for the mega gamemode)
I'll add the space to this popup. I thought i did it already but it seems i forgot it...
SWARM is like scoreloop and openfeint. It adds online-leaderboards and friendlists. So you can save other Zuzzle players as your friend and see their scores and so on. It also features a chat so you can write with other SWARM users (your friends) during playing a SWARM enabled game. Main feature are the online-leaderboards.
I hope i was able to answer all your thoughts

Whoo have played this for an hour now and man.. this is addicting!
At first it is a bit hard to see all possible combinations, but after you get into it, you suddenly see how many possibilities a certain board position can have
Constantly planning on how to fix your earlier mistakes at the top of the board. This will definitely keep me busy for a while

Great idea. .
I'll add auto-save if the games goes into pause -> Other application gets in front or you click the home button.
(I think i'll add a toggle button for this, because it will take some battery to save it each time the app gets into the background. (not much but yeah a little little little bit))
I've updated all libraries today and added new options to the custom gamemode. I'll add your request and you can expect a update today or tomorrow :laugh:

Click Thanks button to support my development..
Thanks. The Play Store link is down btw.
Love trying out a new reddit app so thanks for this.
It's still in beta as you stated and yeah.. it shows but thats fine.
The icon is fugly. That needs an overhaul. Maybe I can help you out with that. Hell, maybe I'll do it for fun just to see what I can come up with .
It needs to be simpler. The fact that you need to click a post and then also click "view page". Just hassle. Maybe make it so you can click the image and it'll just pop open.
The buttons are also fugly. Something flatter and holo will go a long way.
The upvote/downvote....just needs better placement. I'm not too sure if people would rather see them directly on the post or have to click on a post to see it but thats the only constructive criticism I can offer. Just needs better placement. How? I'm not too sure yet.
Its slow. Takes quite awhile to open items especially the comments.
Comments: Doesn't look too bad but maybe add some lines down the left hand side or something and have them indented. You can't really tell which comments are replies to others.
This is all my opinion and meant to be constructive. I would LOVE to learn how to create half of this so I definitely applaud your effort. If you ever need a tester before releasing, I'm here and would love to help out in any way.
Thank you!
Best for Reddit
Thanks for letting me know... Not active as before..
Used the app for 1hour; downloaded from Google play store..
Suggestions :
Improve the app icon ( HD image ).
UI smooth need a option for full screen too..
Double tap not working I think please check.
Rest all fine.. Best app for reddit with no ads..
Voted
Maybe I'm missing something, but even after I signed in, the lefthand navigation remained with the default subreddits, and did not show my personal subscriptions.
Personal subscriptions.
If i'm right you guys have missed the Personal Subscriptions API..

Icons
After the update the icons looks decent dude.. More to improve..
Very good idea and app, works well.
I'm really confused with this app, i couldn't find the reddits i'm subscribed to (i was logged in) and i don't know how to look at some pages, for now, i'll stick with Reddit Now
Could do with adjustable text. I have to wear my glasses to read the posts.
Am i missing something? I don't see the text of posts I open. Links to websites, pictures, and gifs work fine, but text only posts show part of the heading and then just the comments.
And I agree with jax above you should be able to click a post to go into it; in addition I think you should be able to long click to get a context menu which might include share, for example.
sent from my brain using telepathy
Great app, would love a tap and hold to save image or menu option save image and just clicking on the post should open it, have a comments button under the post instead we can tap on to expand them. Seriously great work though for a new app! Thanks for this
Link flair?
Shouldn't "Raising" be "Rising"? I agree with some of the suggestions already given. Otherwise nice app!
I will add one vote constructively, Dark Mode for OLED.
Nice app but there are many things my designer eye doesn't like
- the splash screen is just a pixelated stretched image. looks very weird
- the "rate reddit for android"-dialog should use android's default choice dialog style and not this 10 minute layout
- don't start a new activity everytime you click a button
- the category dropdown items are way too small, just stay to android default theme here
- I wouldn't show the icons of the navigation bar on the left. it's kinda confusing and wastes space, too
- I'd completely remove the bottom bar, but that's a design choice. I'd replace prev/next by a tab/swipe-layout, put the search icon into action bar and completely remove the homebutton because it's useless imo
- I'm not sure about the filter icon in the action bar. I mean it's easy to understand but it looks kinda weird like it doesn't fit the iconography guidelines.
- don't lock landscape mode
- the post-buttons are looking weird and don't consider the available space(check the image1 in attachements)
- there are text alignment problems in the comments(screenshot 2)
- Also I don't really understand what these arrows on the left of every comment are about
- also the list of of posts aren't intuitive because u have to click them and it shows buttons then. I'd change it so a click directly opens the page and then u could add a comments button in the actionbar
- about the +1 button in the bottombar: what is it for? for liking the app? the currently selected post? reddit as a service?
also I had a FC. dunno if it has been caused by xprivacy though
