New Vlingo App

I was chosen to do a survey of two different versions of the new Vlingo app, so I got some screenshots. Wondered what you guys think of the new version of the app that will soon be released in a month or so..
Version 1:
{
"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_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Version 2:
I love the new interfaces, not sure which version they will go with. That's the reason they wanted us to give feedback. I love the humor of the "way too loud" screen.
And no I will not share an APK, so please don't ask. I'm under very strict rules. Sorry guys. Which I could.

This much nicer than the old one.
I would love to try this.

looks a lot better

I think version 1 looks the best from a ui standpoint. Interested to see how the new release works

Looks really great - though would love to see a dark theme. Also hoping they've incorporated new features such as the equilavent of google's "listen to". Vlingo tends to be more accurate I've found.
I can't make up my mind over which version I prefer - both look great.

the UI looks beautiful, any ETA?

Version 1 for me.
Version 2's UI reminds me of the Edwin interface.

Personally i am happy with any UI... cuz i just HOLD the search key to run Vlingo... just curious about the features...
so in this new version, it seems you have more options as to what you can tell vlingo to do...
is this correct?
can you maybe list some features?

Yep. Through voice commands it can post facebook and twitter statuses (possibly other social services down the road.. who knows), it can send sms, emails, and can make phone calls, open up google searches, it can open up google maps and navigation with specific addresses and such (eg. "Navigate to 1313 Mockingbird Lane"), and it can open other applications.
As for the ETA, not completely sure. Could be another month or more.

excellent apps have been using it lately.
Like the 1st version but would prefer a darker theme as vlingo is most used app on my phone.

Version 1.
Love to have a widget that is customizable (transparent background, different colors, layouts, etc.)

niiiiiice....,

I prefer version 1. However both do look a lot cleaner then the current version.

[APP] [2.2+] PhoneLeash:SMS,missed call to email/SMS; SMS reply; GPS

[Post updated to point to latest version on Android Market]
Hi XDA community!
Our first app PhoneLeash is on the Android Market (free).
{
"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_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",

"lightbox_share": "Share",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I like to call it the "misplaced phone app" since its meant for the more common occurrence of your phone simply not being near you, rather than being stolen.
PhoneLeash has features for finding your lost phone (or at least confirming where you think you left it) while also letting you know who is calling/texting meanwhile. Its not trigger happy (yet!) about wanting to wipe all the data the minute you see your phone isn't with you
We are trying to get the right balance of features, here is what we have now:
GPS locating
SMS/missed call forwarding to email or phone
Reply to SMS
Low battery alert
Remote ring
Privacy (no website tracking your phone)
Battery life -- after all you won't be using these features much of the time, so why have features that constantly drain your battery.
Unique feature - With PhoneLeash you can (remotely) reply to an SMS, and it goes out from your phone - the other side simply cannot tell the difference. While new and unique, we want to make sure we keep it simple to use. Speaking of simplicity, all of PhoneLeash fits in 1-2 spartan screens.
We've tested with Go SMS, Handcent to make sure PhoneLeash works with their default settings. PhoneLeash can also forward to HeyWire SMS numbers as well.
We found out that some tablets (Galaxy 8.9) do SMS but no telephony, so those are supported now as well.
If you can give it a try, we'll be very thankful. And ask for features - maybe they'll happen!
Thanks!

Here is a link and some screencaps of the new features in v 1.5
I am not a Twitter-user (tweeter?) but just used PhoneLeash to send in my first tweet from my phone. Sent this SMS from Google Voice to my PhoneLeash-ed phone-- "40404 here's a random tweet"--and by magic it showed up in my Twitter account!

on i 9000?
Is it available on samsung galaxy i 9000?

Very cool. I will test it out soon.

Brilliant, been looking for a simple and lite note taking app for my S2. Will keep an eye on this thread for future updates so I can use it on my stock Gingerbread ROM
Also; can you give the option to make the background of the app black as well as the white (and also transparent widget background) as my theme is minimalist black
Many thanks

Nice to see one more app using google's app design guidelines

Will add that to the next version.

could you please upload the source code?
Thank you, that App is the end of my looking-for-a-good-note-app-safari

That icon looks wickedly familiar..... wonderful app nonetheless
Sent from my XT875 using Tapatalk

I would be infinitely more interested in this if it was available inverted... using all possible inverted ICS apps on Vibrant, ICS Passion v12. Would be great to have a matching notes app, and should be a simple solution for you to provide. I'll keep an eye on this one!

Any news on the update of this app Noitora?
Thanks

It's very good but might I suggest some improvements ?
1. The ability to save a note without the title;
2. The ability to automatically save a note when pressing the back key.
These 2 items keep it from being perfect IMO.

An update is on the way. I've been a little busy so I didn't have time to work on it.

Nice notes apps.. love the simplicity..

Thanks for this, looks good

Lol ripped the icon from holonotes

Thanks for this one

SeriesGuide - TV Show Tracker

I watch a lot of TV shows and it is hard to keep up with new episodes. I also had trouble to trying to figure out which shows I have already watched.... thus I found the perfect app.
SeriesGuide informs you when a new episode comes out and you can mark episodes that you have already watched.
Learn more about the app here:
TV show tracker for Android

I agree. I love this app, except for the fact that its widget really looked out of place on my home screen.
I have added a few settings to customize it; if anyone is interested I will push these changes back to GitHub and ask the author if we wishes to integrate them.

Im using tv shows favs, but actually i more like this app.

Regarding the widget, I'm also not too fond of it the way it looks right now. I do like the transparency, but the 'next' text in capitol letters is way to big. If that would be in normal text, it would be better. And the show covers could be doubled in size (thus increasing the line hight for each episode), so it'll be a little more easy on the eyes when watching the list.
Besides that, I very much love this app!
On a second note, perhaps a fourth theme could be implemented: 'rom default'. Install a recent version of Chainfire's SuperSU app and you'll see what I mean It matches the theme based on the used framework. So if you're on a Sense ROM, the app will be Sense themed, and if you're on TouchWizz, it will be TW themed.

Nice app! Thank you, really helping!

[APP][3.0+][FREE] Light Notes

Hello everyone
Do you mind, if i show you my first real android app which i created in the last few days/weeks?
The name is Light Notes. It is a simplistic, minimalistic and fast note taking app.

unnecessary stuff! Just simple and elegant.
Here are the main features of Light Notes:
Colorized notes: Categorize your notes by color
Sort notes by color, creation or last edited date
Pin notes to the statusbar to never forget anything again
Backup notes to the sdcard
Import your backups on any device
Auto backup your notes
Share your notes directly from the app
Export notes as standard txt files
Minimalistic holo design
Also, have some screenshots

}
(there are more in the play store, or why dont you just download the app and see it for yourself?
it looks better on a real device anyway )
I would appreciate it, if you have a second or two to check out my app and maybe leave a rating or a comment, or
post here what you like and what you dont like. Also don't hesitate to let me know about feature requests
I already have some more features planned to release in the newxt few versions.
Currently the app is available in English and German. If you want to help me to translate Light Notes to
other languages, i would be more than happy.
Anyways.. You can grab my app over at the google play store (it is free)
(click)
Thanks for reading and checking out Light Notes! It means a lot to me

Release notes
1.0.0 (2014-04-13)
first public release to the playstore

anyone? :/

i've released an update to the app.
This fixes a little bug on Nexus 7 devices

So, what differentiates this from Google Keep?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

I downloaded this for the statusbar note displaying functionality, and it's good although I'd be incredibly happy with it if there was an option to remove the icon in the status bar whilst still keeping the notes in the pulldown
Thanks

Looks nice, will try soon!
