I'm dying for an idea to help you guys

Hello. I'm sure a lot of you know that I am an app developer. I have a lot of passion for Kindle fire development and I want to help by creating an app that is useful for Kindle fire users...but what. I just don't know what I should make. I need ideas. What do you want to make your experience better on the Kindle? Anyone? Any CRAZY or BOLD ideas are appreciated.

Help me build the launcher that everyone wants. I have the idea, the Photoshop, but very little coding experience. :good:

Volume widgets would be nice. Like + - and a slider.

Thats a good idea. I have an idea for this but it wouldnt use the theme chooser app but it would be a create-your own mod type of thing. It would be a long project but i could do it.any other ideas?

I might could help you on this. Your launcher idea looks great. The thing is that i still haven't done much open GL yet. In fact i couldnt make a simple shape in openGL because it keeps force closing but once i get better i can hit you up.

Well, whoever wants to help (including you) may do so. I refuse to make it a paid app though, because that's just wrong considering it's based on Amazon's work. Heh.
I'd gladly give back by helping with whatever apps people are creating since I KNOW Android developers lack in that department for the most part. :silly:

A scripted app for ICS auto installation would be beast

Thanks! Also big thanks to Mark Wei for developing StandOut. He gets the credit for smoothness

Re: [APP][2.1+] Floating Stickies
Works great! My new sticky app. there's no way to remove the notification icon right? Because it has to stay in the foreground as its dock?

Yeah unfortunately
Thanks though! Leave a review if you can. :good:

Re: [APP][2.1+] Floating Stickies
I believe that starting from 4.1 to 4.1+, apps can hide their notification icon, but once the statusbar is pulled down, you'll still see the app's notification. Would you mind trying to implement that?

Re: [APP][2.1+] Floating Stickies
Make the icon used in the status bar transparent.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

Brilliant

The Moderaror's take
Super nice and useful !!! Great job !! Yeah Atrix- has a good idea, making it transparent might be a good option
Great 'lil app !!

One step closer to a paperless society AWESOME!!!! My new favorite app...Thank you so much

Great app, is working really smooth.
Thank you for this app.:good:

Would be great if it could accept handwriting (not necessarily recognition) just random writing and drawing.
Especially amazing if it supports the S-Pen and eraser.

This is a beautiful app it looks like it belongs when its on top of some app it works great on my nexus 4 thank

Re: [APP][2.1+] Floating Stickies
Would totally pay for this if it had s pen support for the note 2!

This is such a helpful and useful app. Already recommended it to 5 friends!

Works great! Replacing my previous note app in 1, 2, 3...

Thanks so much everyone, really appreciate it

Great app. Totally work it. Recommended to all my friends.

android 4.1 can use

Oops. Just found that you can't use it to Google search until you register the android device with a Google account, but the GlassSetup fails so don't try it... I'll try to push a fix on Tuesday. Maybe before.

Sorry if this question is idiotic, but is the ROM just that, a black screen with voice options? I would expect a launcher since you said it was based on PA. Apologies, but you didn't include screenshots of a launcher so I'm doing some guessing here.

Worked for me. Just like pa but slight difference. Clearly it's not 100% yet.

Hey this is a great idea! Was watching about glass and how it has the most advanced voice features Google has to offer. Really looking forward to seeing your developments on this ROM :thumbup:

[APP] SmartMote - music remote control

Hi, i just published my sony smartwatch 2 new app. It's called SmartMote and it is for player remote control.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.zalsky.android.watchremotecontrol

great!
so pitty you haven't done it yesterday when i bought similar plugin for poweramp.
That universal control is what i was looking for
edit:
bought it. App is working as described. Love it. Now i can listem to my audiobooks with controls on my watch. Thank you

Just bought the app myself, seems to be working very nicely. The album art is a very nice touch. Speaking of touch, you've gotten the targets spot on almost for the size of the display, and removing swipes for volume is good too, as swiping is notioriously fiddly with the SW2.
Well done sir!
Tom.

:good: i'am glad you like it. Please don't forget to rate app on Play Store, also comments are welcomed. It's the best way to say thankyou

just have one idea. Can you make something similiar as in poweramp widget? When app is launched screen doesn't lock to clock mode, but dim and for example put small clock ontop, or even not. When i often switch music it is a little bit annoying for me to unlock watch to click 'next'.
Thank you

Sounded good until I got to the "only works with 4.4". Nice work though...

Works great! Nice app!

4.4 kitkat is required do to some APIs app needs to exists, sorry for that. i will be much happier if there will be some way to avoid that

Fantastic App! This is the only one that i have found to work with google music perfectly and the ui is great. Well worth the price. Ill be writing a review on the play store for you soon.

Works great with Audible and pocketcasts. 5 stars.

Unbelievable! The best app on my watch! Thank you.
Edit..I have one request. Could you sometime in the future add low power mode to keep the screen on?
