Why I created this app?
I couldn't find good looking, simple and customisable remote app for mac in google play that works great out of the box.
Previously I was using the most popular mac remote by Agusti Bau http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2163664, main reasons why I create my own app was:
1) Customisation - I wanted add my custom commands like switching slides in Impress.JS, and I couldn't. So I added posibility to manage applications (adding own, hiding default items, changing order).
2) Unfortunately most remote apps on the market are ugly, so I created good looking remote.
3) I need sometimes current track info when I lying on couch, so I implemented also this option.
4) I implemented media buttons that works the same way as media keys in mac, e.g. long click on "next" button works like "fast-forward" in iTunes.
5) I use remote for several hosts (work/home), and with previous remote I had to always write ip manually. My mac.remote remember correct usernames and hosts.
Plans for future:
Mac.remote is the first product from .remote family, next linux.remote is on the way.
I share some ideas about future plans here http://www.dotremote.net/plans/55/ and I am waiting for your feedback what I can improve and which ideas are the most awaited.
You can download app from: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.szwiec.mac_dot_remote
Project page is at: http://www.dotremote.net/
In the future I will write more tips and tricks about custom configuration on the blog.

Great love it ! great appearance !
love the simplicity ! thumbs up

very nice indeed, and with a hell of a better GUI!! I really like it, kudos!
If I may suggest, though, the only thing I'd say this app lacks is a built-in way to be used as a touchpad to control the mouse pointer. There is always going to be that one, stupid command you've never used in your life but you just happen to need, requiring you to go to the mac and therefore rendering this app less useful... if it had this option, I think it'd be the best

Testing
Interesting one.. Testing right now..

Big thumbs up!
Yes I'd also love Touchpad controls and quick left/right options similar (not provided) in Valence but integrated in Mac.remote.
Keep up the great work and look forward to my support! Sorli...

Great app and beautiful UI.
Is it possible to implement the usage of the volume up/down button to go to the next/previous song/slide?

Thank you for feedback

Yep, I'm considering keyboard/trackpad in the future. It will be separate app (but integrated with current one) or landscape view will change app to trackpad/keyboard. Currently I prefer to create separate app, because unwanted rotation when you laying on the couch is often and that feature spoils simplicity

No, sorry, but if it is good news for you, I plan to give you customizable right drawer, you will be able to create any command with icon of your choice.
I share more ideas at http://www.dotremote.net/plans/55/
New features largely depends on yours votes.

I think you should change your app name, your app looks cool but the copying the name is not cool.

I was thinking a lot about name convention for my product:
Main name for all family of products is .Remote (dotRemote) because dot is my trademark.
It's also scalable because products from .remote family can have name linux.remote and windows.remote
So I didn't copy name from you, it was natural fulfillment for .remote brand name.

waiting for the linux version :highfive:

Great app, just wrote a review. In Hungarian: http://androidportal.hu/2014-03-07/macremote
I wanted to create a remote app for the Prezi Desktop app, but wasn't successful. The app does not recognize the sent left and right arrow.

next
Code:
tell application "System Events" to key code 124
tested on prezi desktop and impress.js
Thank you for review
[EDIT] Some users request me about PowerPoint, but Microsoft doesn't give trial version
If someone has working configuration, please share.

[APP] NClip (Notifications /w clipboard integration)

Updated and nicer
I once had an idea for this app, so i started learning Java to make it happen.
I had a need to keep important information from my clipboard at the front of my attention (e.g text message,email etc) so I added some features and the result is NClip

I'll be reviewing this app on the BoB Only show for XDATV. Look forward to it for Tuesday or Thursday!

OMG, this is exactly the app i was looking for.
I had the idea of such an app for months!
Thanks for it!
the cat ran across the road?!
wow! m already starting to like this app,
xD
pretty cool,i've been looking for somthing like this.
Suggestions
This is a great great app and a really good idea.. but I wanna give you some suggestions. The GUI is messy and doesn't properly use space.
On the very top is the Clipboard entry area (this should be at the bottom as its not usually used) it occupies immediately 1/2 of the screen with a large area that is totally wasted. Then, if there are contents on the clipboard they are not displayed nicely in the window (really ugly).
Then because of large unused area for the clipboard, now the Custom entry are is hidden when the keyboard is pulled-up (which by the way should pop-up immediately and it doesn't). Then if I want to add an icon, that menu selection is at the very bottom, so I have to close the keyboard to get there and, that menu doesn't have icon previews, just bullets (it needs icon previews as like the PICK ICON menu item). Finally the NOTE CUSTOM MESSAGE is at the very bottom (worse place), needs to be at the top.
All this makes a single entry an endless effort of way too many clicks to get anything done. I'm on a 7" Galaxy Tab. Look at the screenshots and get inspired
Finally, for this app to make ANY SENSE, it needs to be AS EASY TO ACCESS AS THE NOTES IT CREATES!!!!!!!!!! So, make it run as a hidden notification so it can be pulled down from the taskbar and activated (like the app Clipper - Clipboard manager for example.. you can check it out on the market if you are not sure what I mean)
Really nice app though. I want to love it.. you just need to make it right now
I've already added some features to the program, including the short cut you suggested, just my keystore is 100+ miles away on my desktop so I cant yet publish the update (its been sitting around for over a month).
I have also updated the gui, it shows only what is relevant at a given moment and keyboard no longer poses an issue on my nexus s, literally the app has everything you want (its just not published), i'm working on it

havok123, thanks for the feedback, this is great news! I didn't mean at all to be harsh or overly criticizing.. think your app is truly fantastic and therefor I just would like it you to get it perfect! I'm happy you decided to learn Java just to program this... totally worth it!
When you have an update for the or if you want me to help you beta test/trouble shoot an updated version, post the info here on the thread or PM me. Id love to help you if I can.
Keep up the great work and when its perfect make a paid version. It will be worth it and I think many people would buy it. You can definitely count me in and your work should be rewarded!
Just uploaded update finally.
Updated to 3.0
Changelog:
What's in this version:
N Clip Shortcut
Edit notifications on click
Updated GUI
Bug fixes
Great update, interface much more workable & cleaner.
One suggestion that immediately comes 2mind is, get rid of the sticky app icon that shows up on taskbar when selecting the enable shortcut option. No ned & cluttery. IfU add a note without chooding custom icon, now there are DOUBLE app icons on the taskbar being displayed one of which is NOT a note.. very confusing and unecessary.
If the enable shortcut opion is chosen, we know its there in the pulldown menu already, thats enough &keeps taskbar cleaner for actual notifications only
going to get on it over christmas break xD

[Widget] Speedlauncher app launcher

Hi There,
I am relatively new to XDA Dev forum, although a long time developer. We've got a vibrant community here so as a budding Android developer let me introduce myself with my first Android app! Speedlauncher app launcher widget !! Let me describe my app for your feedback.
Many of us install a ton of apps on our phone and have to constantly scroll up and down screens to find a specific game or app. Its pretty annoying at times. Speedlauncher is a different take on the launcher concept. Speedlauncher is an app launcher widget that launches any app by pressing a 1 or 2 digit shortcode. So for e.g. you might have shortcode 9 for Angry Birds, 18 for Facebook, 27 for Twitter and so on....
You need to add Speedlauncher on your homescreen from the widgets list to be able to use it. I'm giving the Android market link below as well as the QR code.http://market.android.com/details?id=com.bapatsoftware.android.SpeedLauncher

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have also attached few screenshots with this post.
Please give it a try and share your real feedback both negative and positive as that will help me in refining the app.
Thanks,
Omkar
I hav'nt tried the widget but my impression is that it might be a bit difficult to use, as you have to memorize the number of each application you want to launch.
What if instead you make an alphanumeric keyboard, where you can type in the first 2-3 letters of the name of an application and it starts listing all applications containing this letters in the name? From this pop up list you can then launch the one you want.
Very nice & useful app/widget osbapat But i think Claus is right, please think about it

It is a nice suggestion but an app for that is already available (kinda works the same way as SmartDial, but to launch apps).
This concept is not bad at all. Yes, you need to memorize the speed dials, but if you have some contacts on speed dials it should flow rather well. I would be nice to be able to have a reminder of what is what.
Edit: nvm, just saw the "Edit" button
Thanks to all of you for your valuable feedback! I will try to improve my app.
@egzthunder1, do you think a screen that displays only the app name and assigned shortcode, to quickly scan which shortcode is given for which app will be useful?
Thanks and Regards,
Omkar S. Bapat
Well, I rather create folder with apps. But you could do something like t9 search (similar to t9 dialer)

I think it will help.... kinda like having a quick guide on regular land line phones....
I think a t9 launcher makes more sense and is much easier to use. Indeed, reminding all those shortcut codes is not convenient at all. As far as I know there is no t9 launcher for android, so +1 from me for making one .
I also prefer an app over a widget...
i suggest you will use a t9 like suggestions :
lets say i configured number 10,11,12 as Email,Gmail,Phone
when i'l just press '1' ill see an icon of all 3 apps above as a suggestion.
i think your idea is great.
Speedlauncher Version 1.0.5 released!
Thanks for your feedback. Based on the feedback received so far I have made 2 changes to the app:
1) Added a new screen for quick reference of shortcodes to apps. To access this screen tap on the SCode button on the widget
2) Changed the UI of the widget buttons

Omkar

Update is out
Hi, Draw2Dial has been updated to 1.1 fixing a few minor bugs found by users.
People seem to like it so I must say thank you for the nice ratings, reviews and feedback.
Any shortcuts availble?
Is it possible to have a shortcut to launch the gesture field directly without having to press the tab? It would also go nicely combined with an invisible tab.
Just some thoughts. Good start! =]
Hello, thanks for sharing your thoughts about the app. A -almost- invisible tab icon is a great idea and I will get on it soon.
As for the shortcut, do you mean having it instead of the tab, so you can launch the gesture field from certain home screens only?

Is there any way you could post the apk on the OP? Many people have no access to the Play Store, so they would likely benefit if you added the apk here for them to download.
Thank you.

Done.
Also, app has been updated.
v1.2
- New customization options (three new service icons)
- Minor bug fixes
Useful app that i would love to try. However......
Remembering the "speed dial" numbers is do-able no prob. But would it be possible to have the option of drawing of drawing initials??
To set it up so i could draw JM or CL ect... to get a contact that the app has linked to that input??
Just a thought.
I really like this app it works well but if I may I would like to suggest that if its possible to add the ability to draw out a complete 7 digit number and save it for those occasions when you need to take down a new phone number. I think that kind of functionality would be tremendously useful especially if it can be done from the lock screen. Again just a suggestion.
thanks for sharing ur app... keep rocking
thanks for sharing ur app... keep rocking...will update the review after playing with it..
Awesome app. Patent this right away dude or an OEM is gonna use it as a "new" feature.
Nice app and very useful especially on the lock screen. Suggest that once enabled icon should be invisible from the lockscreen but is running in the background. What do you think?
great app but useless with talkback for my blind dad
very nice idea, couse with ICS and furthermore we lost speed dial in phone app (it was present in froyo and GB)
but it needs work...i tested, it's soo hard to recognize #1 or #9....then for example ...contact was saved #1 ...i draw 5 to test ....it said...there is no contact on 5 but it dials the 1
or i draw 8 and it wants 3...etc.
but overall realy great idea...was looking for speed dial app

You just need a network connection. Features is unlocked by watching several videos or installing a couple of apps
how
i have an network connection dude how to watching several videos or installing a couple of apps to get full features can you give step by step procedure i like your app and want to try full features in your app
You should go to "Settings" on the right pane of the main screen and tap on "Synchronization".
After that you'll see the list of offers with videos and apps. By clicking on them you'll receive Points which are needed to unlock the feature.
The same list will appear when you add new category while adding new transaction.
Of course, if you want you can just buy Pro version and get all the features unlocked)
not working
i have followed your procedure and pressed the dropbox option it opes two option one to google play store to buy and another update points after that when i press both option it does not go either to playstore or shows how to increase points it strucks there and shows no internet connection while i am having internet connection and all my rest apps are working fine kindly fix that bug and try to add lock option
Fix is coming soon
"Get on Google Play" button will be fixed today. Thank you for pointing it out!
If you see "Refresh" button it means that your network connection is not stable. You could try to find more powerful signal
Looks like a really nice app. Can you add multiple account support & transfer money from one account to the other?

Unfortunately, for now we do not plan to add multiple accounts support, because we want to keep the app as simple as possible.
The main goal of Monefy is to help you to track the expenses very easy. If an app is too complicated, it is boring to add all transactions. We really want to avoid it

I don't think it would make your app complicated for the user, in fact it is a major feature great in demand by most users.
This feature can be added while maintaining the simplicity of app. For example you may swipe on the main app screen to change between accounts.
Sent from my One V using Tapatalk
Sounds reasonable. I'll consider adding this feature in the future
Thanks a lot!
Just discovered this AMAZING app. I was using Financius (good app but too simple). I tried a lot of others apps, but none of them have all the features this app has. Not to mention that the interface is really easy to use. It's nearly perfect! I will definitely recommend it.
As a suggestion, it would be great to have some sort of graphs mode (like Spendee) to see the ups and downs and the overall of the money flow.

Snap Search wants to provide the quickest way to search through your favourite websites in the easiest manner possible.
Snap Search is incredibly simple:
Step 1) Select your website ✓
Step 2) Enter your desired search term/keywords ✓
Step 3) TADA ! Browse through the search results in the most secure way possible. ✓
I would really really appreciate any and all feedback on how to improve this. Please do check it out

Good idea to replace a browser I think, I'm using something almost similar in justsearch from fdroid. You should maybe consider adding a shortcut. For example to launch justsearch I tap and hold the power button (OnePlus feature) for a second...

Oh that is a good idea!
I have added the ability to create widgets for the home screen. Wasn't sure if this would be needed as well. Do you feel more people will use it? Sounds like a nice thing to have.
Hey Rajat great app! Love the idea.
Can you make the app as a browser provider so that any link we click online unintentionally or want to search something private( ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ), It would not go to our search history and stay private.
Also, you can make the homescreen more clean looking by moving the app settings/preferences to a 3 dot menu.
Also make the toolbars a bit smaller. They look too big on my device.
Good Luck!

Hey thanks so much for the feedback, really appreciate it.
Will definitely include your suggestions as much as possible in this update - which should be out soon. Loved the browser provider idea!
Hey guys,
An update for Snap Search is out with lots of improvements!
If you haven't tried it already - do try it now - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cybersky.snapsearch
If you have, would love some feedback on how to improve it even more
A sweet new update is now live on the store!
Some of the new changes and improvements are:
- Support for quick search in 5 new websites (Baidu, eBay, Reddit, LinkedIn and IMDb)
- Full screen browsing
- Few bugs squashed
I also took the liberty of re-doing the app store description and creating new screenshots. Hope they look good (or better at least) now: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cybersky.snapsearch

I would definitely do it. I love JustSearch so i would consider shufting to Yours completely for sure.
JustSearch works as a replacement of Google assistant.
Sounds good @danecr7! Bumping it up in the to-do list now
