[APP][2.2+][Free] Automated Menu Planner w/ DashClock Extension

I've lurked around here for a number of years but this is my very first post.
Hello! How do you do?
Ok now that the pleasantries are out of the way ... :laugh:
This app was an idea suggested by my wife. She wanted to prepare meals for a month so she could trick me into cooking them on a regular basis. Fail. Diving through her recipe books/websites was cumbersome and she eventually backed off of that due to the time requirement of planning the menu ... any maybe my reluctance to cook them hahaha.
Enter, the automated menu planner. It automatically plans dinner entrees on a weekly, semiweekly, or monthly basis. It learns what you like and creates your menu with other recipes that you may enjoy.
Here is the list of features thus far :
- Automatically planned dinner entrees
- Automatically populated and groomed grocery list.
- Filter recipes containing disliked ingredients.
- A DashClock extension that shows today's entree on the home/lock screen (Android 4.2+)
- Simple UI for tablets and phones.
- Optionally notifies you when it creates a new menu plan.
- Free (w/ads)
There are many more features to come. Check it out and let me know what you think.
Since i'm not at the magic/10 post limit yet, search the Google Play Store for Automated Menu Planner (org.doors.sliding.amp). I'll update the post with a direct link once I pass the limit.

Looks interesting. Here is your link:

Of course, and I will give this a go soon. In a month I lose my job and take on the cooking for myself and my wife, and we are both indecisive when it comes to dinner, so I can see something like this really helping me make those tough decisions.

Wish you all the best and I hope everything works out for you.

Updated to v 1.1.
Fixed a few bugs. Touched up the help screens.
Got tired of the text on the startup screen so I replaced it with a comically large icon. I might find something more appropriate for that area later.

I'm riding the DashClock hype train . I've added an extension to my app that shows today's planned entree on the lock/home screen for Android 4.2+.

[GAME][2.2+] iTavli - Three backgammon like games 3.2

Hi everyone,
I am really excited to announce my application "iTavli - Three backgammon like games", which is a board game. If you are familiar with the backgammon game, you will love the other two games: blockgammon (or plakoto) and narde (or fevga).
The difference between these two games and the backgammon game, is that in the blockgammon game you block your opponent's single checker when you land on it, and in the narde game you can land your checkers in open or friendly occupied places.
This app runs on Android devices running OS 2.2 and higher, is free of charge and you can download it at Google Play
Version 3.0 was released yesterday, with the following new features:
- New UI for tablets
- Minor enhancements in the UI for smartphones
- A player can resign an online game
As with the iOS version, all games are free of charge, but with ads. Currently, you can not purchase the extra games (i.e., the Plakoto (or blockgammon) and the Fevga (or narde) game), but we plan to add this feature soon
Please, do not hesitate to contact me for any question that you may have
Thank you,
Vasilis

Very nice. Here is a link to the app at play store. iTavli

Hello everyone,
Version 3.1 is ready for download, with the following new features:
Use virtual coins to rent and play a game without ads.
Use virtual coins to bet during an online game
Several reported bugs/issues are fixed
I am looking forward to your suggestions
Thank you

Very nice

Version 3.2 is ready for download
The iTavli application is integrated with the Facebook, and you can now invite your online FB friends to play a game.
Your friends are sorted alphabetically, and you can invite those who have installed the Facebook on their iOS or Android device.
Finally, this version has some minor changes in the UI, which should make the application more responsive
Enjoy the game

Good engine.

Very nice, a lot nicer than others tavli/backgammon apps.
I would loved to see though:
-quicker roll dice and moves
-combined moves
that way a game would be much quicker as the real one!

Hi, thank you for your feedback.
With regards to the quicker roll dice and moves, did you check the option in the Settings screen?
What do you mean by "combined moves"?

We identified an issue with one of our ad network providers. We disabled that network, and the game should run again smoothly.
Furthermore we received some crash reports from various users, and we released version 3.2.1 which should fix this problem

By combined moves I mean when I have a roll dice, let's say 5 and 6, I would like to have in the options not only the move of a 5 or 6, but also the straight 11 so I don't have to click twice, first ie. click 5 and then click 6.
No biggie, just a suggestion!

xm, Depending on the dice and the selected checker, when you tap on a checker you will see 3 possible moves. Namely, if you roll a 5 and 6, and you tap on the checker which is at the beginning (this applies to all three games) of the board, you xan move that checker to three positions: 1) one which is 5 blocks away, 2) one which is 6 blocks away, and 3) one which 11 blocks away. Is this what you are describing?
Also, did you manage to change the speed of rolling the dice and moving the checkers in the Settings screen?

Ok, I didn't write that good enough last time. I mean, when you are playing "portes" and you have a checker out, when you have the options you can only do the first two, inside the first 6 block. In case you want to make a combined move (placed in and move) you have to click two times. Like I said before is not biggie but makes the game faster, that's all...
For your second question, I honestly can't find where settings are??

oh, yes, this is definitely a nice and useful feature. It is one of the things that I would like to add, but it needs a lot of testing, as you may remove a chip that you are not allowed to.
If you have a tablet, then you simply click on the "Settings" button
If you have a smartphone, then you scroll the screen to left. If you scroll it to right you will see the players who are currently online, and if you scroll even more to the right, you will see some online statistics.

Man, i'm sorry, I really didn't know that I should scroll... Now, I've got it! Cool speed, ok! But perhaps an indication to slide on screen could be helpful.
Great work, thanks!

After the splash screen, just flap up and down to fling away obstacles (and right for hill) for Lily, the cute (really?) alien pet that looks like a pair of glasses that has terrible eyesight (duh!). She escaped from her owner and wanted to be free. Fling away obstacles for her and she will be free~

Pretty fun, I gave it a 5 star. This would be a good app to put Google+ leaderboards in.

Thank you!
I will try to implement Google+ leaderboard in my next update in a few days.

I am seeking ways to implement Google+ leaderboard and a new update will be released in a few days. Let me know if you have any suggestion!
UPDATE:
*Be honest with you all, I tried to implement it and it simply gives me numerous errors during testing, and I finally gave up. Unfortunately Google has released an update on their "Google Play Services" and the engine/framework I used (Libgdx) doesn't seem to go along. I will try to do that in the future, and I am sorry for my other "announcement."

I initially thought this was a game for google wearable. Will install it and let you know.

Please doLet me know your suggestion!:fingers-crossed:

I will (I will!) release an update soon so the graphics will be improved.

Major Update to Version 3.2:
*I updated the fonts and sounds so that the game is less "flappy bird-ish."
*The objects are now less pixelated.
*The game will load during the splash screen, so "Loading, please wait..." will no longer shows up.

[App] [4.1+] Planets

Hello all!
This is my first post on this forum so if I'm posting this in the wrong place, let me know! I would like to show off my latest Android App that I've been working on for the last few months. It has been a long path of changes, changes, and more changes! I've really enjoyed how far I've come with learning development. So here it is!
Planets is a educational app that is centered around providing users with information about the planets in our solar system. It also has info about other objects like the Sun and Pluto. I recently redesigned the app to make the content easier to scan and make it a little more fluid like. I have a community[1] set up with Beta testing for the people who want to test stuff before it's released to the public. I am looking to gain a larger user base but my main goal is just making the app look nice and easy to use. You can download[2] it on the Play Store and feedback/ratings are appreciated. So far, I've got about 1,400 downloads and I'm hoping to get more! Also, you can view the full source code for this app[3]!
See attachments for screenshots.

Wonderful application, always been an admirer of Astronomy and this is just brilliantly put together. Will come back with a decent feedback soon .
I know it is easy to pick on any application but knowing how much effort might have gone in does help (through your github post).

Is it possible to convert the given units into scientific units (e.g. mass of sun = 1.9891 * 10^30 kg)?

Hi, I'm a fan of astronomy but I'm also a graphic, web-designer/developer... I love you app and, if it is possibile, I want to make some themes for this app!

Very nice app. Informative and yet easy on the eye. Looking forward to further updates.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app

I'm always up for more astronomy. Great work, keep it up. :good:

Very nice! Love the UI, looks very intuitive.
Some suggestions:
- use translucent bars on KitKat
- make the back animation consistent with the open animation. For example, when you tap a planet, the card zooms in to fill the screen; but when you hit Back, the screen kind of fades away (the default Android exit animation). It would be nice if it zooms back out.
- like @orville87 said, it would be easier on the eyes to express the units in scientific notation.
- Pluto isn't a planet anymore, right?
I would have asked for info on extraterrestrial moons, but it would seem too outrageous a request.
Subscribed, awaiting further updates

Which of those are the app that is being shown here:

Not enough information. Can you tell me how is this app better than the others universe related apps in Google Play? I appreciate your effort but if you want your app to be competitive he should add more features or at least more info because the info included here is common and can be found in wikipedia for example. There are also apps who also provide 3D model of the solar system with the orbits of all planets.
I'm not trying to offend you, don't get me wrong.

For being a high school student and balancing life and school and this, I take pride in the work that I've done. Sure there are better apps than mine with more info and awesome 3D renderings of planets, I'm not afraid to admit that. However, I'm proud of the work I've done and if people don't recognize that it IS work from a high school student and not some average middle-aged developer, then so be it. Thanks for your feedback :good:

As I said in the beginning of my post I appreciate what you do because I love astronomy and physics so it's good beginning and I'm not hating. But yet you needed something to stimulate you to develop your app. I wish you all best and I'm sure that you'll keep developing this app until it becomes competitive to all the apps out there.

[APP][5.0+] Calculator - The math calculator that I proud of

Hello everyone! Thanks for visiting my thread. This is the first time I have published my app on Google Play Store, so if you find it useful for you, or if you can leave your review after using it, I would really, really appreciate!
As you know, there are tons of calculator app on Play Store, and I know it is really hard for my calculator to compete with them. However, I had a dream of making my own calculator the first time I saw Android, so after long-learning process, I finally made it. This is a big project, not simple as it might seems at first
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thgdev.calculator
I hope you enjoy it, and I will try my best to update it frequently if there is any bug left.
Thanks.

Hello I have tried your app on my Xiaomi mi5s but when I press the numbers I do not see them displayed on the on the screen.
It does not work in my device for any of your calculators (Standard Calculator/Programmer Calculator)
In terms of design the app looks pretty good!

It seems strange that some devices run properly and others does not, although they have the same Android version. Well, it is hard to tell exactly why right now, but I am trying to fix it as soon as possible.
