[APP][2.2+][20 MAR] Contactive Universal Caller ID - Android Apps and Games

Contactive is a caller ID app with a twist. You’re not bound by the shreds of info on your phonebook, nor do you have to hunt down extra information from other sources. In its simplest form, when a call comes in, Contactive taps into the power of the internet, social networks, and our own Global Directory, identifying the caller and adding extra publicly available information. If you decide to connect your own social networks, Contactive links all your scattered information into rich profiles, ultimately replacing phone numbers with meaningful pieces of your life – all in a blink of an eye.

Our growing list of connectable sources includes Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Gmail, Google+, WhatsApp, Tango, Skype, Yelp, Google Places, and Contactive’s own Global Directory, giving you access to hundreds of millions of contacts.
Contactive consolidates the sources you choose to connect into a single address book, where the focus is the person, not the source. No more duplicate contacts with scattered info. Tap on a friend and see all of his numbers, his latest posts on Facebook and Twitter, and even job updates on LinkedIn. We are people, not database entries, and that’s how we treat contacts.
Current main features:
• Universal Caller ID – Identify who’s calling before you decide to pick up with our Global Directory of over 600 million callers and counting
• Smart Address Book – Incorporate information from your social networks for a beautiful address book that updates in real-time
• Contact Updates – Always have something to talk about with a cheat sheet of your contacts’ latest updates in the moments that matter most – right before you pick up a call
With a fast development pace, and a culture of listening to users, we are growing very fast. Let us know what you think, want, or dream. We promise we will listen and try our best to always improve.
Try it, you won’t regret it!

hello, although I disagree the no screen shots, unfortunately people are inherently lazy, no picture no interest, I'd suggest put a single one, to grab the attention of the user.
Like the look of the application, although being a KitKAt user I've gone off that holo blue
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Welcome to xda, i'm excited to try the new app
Edit - the apps looks very interesting. Love the birthday display. However I am not use to the dialer, eg: the name is AsdFgh, if I dial 344 i am still able to find the contact.
Not really an issue, just my habit of dialing. 5 star app.

Thanks, ben_pyett. I too agree about the holo blue -- we've been talking about using one of the more subdued colors in our brand palate instead.
I'm planning on updating the post with screenshots just as soon as we've established ourselves long enough to get the permissions.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions for us after using the app for a while!

Hey #Fear -- thanks so much for the feedback. I think you're talking about the T9 search from the dialer. You can also search from the contacts list a few tabs over.

+1, the idea of a closed beta is that it is only for the specific testers. We earned that position.

No that is a completely different dev group. The dev group that made the project he posted is wp7android started by the red drake and others. BTW i would not recommend trying the one he posted anyways because half of the features are missing in it. Its not hard to become part of the beta group. All you have to do is go over to wp7android.com (better hurry though because we are changing sites) and donate to the paypal account linked to the page. After that just email your paypal confirmation code to mafteiu vlad (he is in the contacts) or just pm "The Red Drake" here on XDA. After this he will send you the apk's or the code to unrar them from the website. Once you have donated once you get all the apps/updates/rom(once its out)/etc. You do not have to donate much just a generous amount.
Sorry for the bad english, I am typing on my phone

Well you are entitled to your own opinion.....but your opinion is wrong. You are basing your thoughts on betas and lite versions of the apps. Also, seeing as the projects are updated all the time, my guess is that you have not updated in a while meaning that you do not truly know how the project is now. If you would let me know what you thought sucked about it we could work to resolve those issues but frankly one troll saying "wp7android sucks" is not going to stop the project. Some real great stuff is in the works right now to make this a fantastic project. One thing (I can't release all the info but i can say a few things) is that we are currently working with amazon. We have their support (i can not go into detail about what they are supporting) and with what they have already and will be providing in the future, this could be a groundbreaking prject.
This is a horrible app probably the worst contacts app I have ever used! Coming from an actual WP7 device this is just terrible!

Well because most of our betas are close to release quality, but we are a very small group with limited resources, and hey we gotta make money somehow lol But you do not just pay to test beta, because you get the actual apps once they are released also. Plus if you go on our site and request apps to be themed/made we attempt to get a dev to do this for you. It truly is worth the money as you get 10 apps and a rom(once it is released).

[APP][2.1+]MathsPro Formulas

Made with love by a student, for students
A handy and comprehensive reference app for mathematics, tailored to the Singapore-Cambridge GCE O Levels and other similar syllabi. A great maths study companion! Includes most formulas(you may request more!) as well as some extra tips and content!
This app is free for users on xda! It costs 0.99SGD on the market though. Please consider buying it if you like the app! It means a lot to a student like me

FAST REAL TIME SEARCH FILTER
Want to check out the Double Angle Formula? Type "dou" and entry for the relevant formula(s) is already presented to you!(see screenshot)
DESIGNED BY A STUDENT
I took the exams, I studied the syllabus. I have designed the app in such a way that students will have a better time understanding the concepts and formulas. Little infoboxes around the app that helpful snippets of information, with more coming soon!
WARM FUZZY FEELING HAVING SUPPORTED A FELLOW STUDENT'S EFFORTS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I built this app, by myself, from scratch, in my own free time. Yes, it's an HTML5 app. I lack the time and skill to properly do a native one.
I do not want to deprive any students(or whoever lol) who cannot buy this app of this wonderful app! You may also freely distribute(i.e. pirate) this app. However, be aware that any pirated version of this app lacks this feature: that warm fuzzy feeling that you get from purchasing this app, allowing me to buy another cup of Milo
It would mean a lot to me that if you like this app, and can afford it, please do me a favour and purchase it, or spread it around by word of mouth and get people to buy it. Take it as a donation to me. If you own a nice Android phone, surely $0.99 isn't a lot to ask for?
I am also considering an free ad-supported version of this app, but I haven't decided on anything yet, partially since I'm running into problems with Admob.
YOU MAY REQUEST ADDITIONAL CONTENT!
Contact me at [email protected], or reply in this thread(I might not see it though)
Naturally, I appreciate feedback on how I can make the app better, and from the developers on this forum, any advice. DO report any errors(content, bugs, language) you may have found! While I have looked through the content, I may have accidentally missed out something, and typos do occur.

OK, for some reason it won't accept a cutter diameter. When I type in .5 it just blanks out the field when I move on to another field or click 'calculate'.
Looks nice. Eager to see where this goes.

Now that's really strange, it works perfectly fine for me. When I type .5 and select another field, 0.5 remains there.
EDIT: oh I pinned down the issue. Anyway, a quick workaround is to type simply type 0.5. It would seem that it is an issue relating to how android handles a numerical input :/ I'm not sure how to word around that for now.

Features:
Swipe Left or Right for next or previous facts.
Random Fact & Latest Fact Buttons.
Twitter sharing button. Amaze your followers with awesome cool facts.
Links to our Facebook, Google Plus & Twitter pages and to the official website.
A never ending list of cool facts.
This is the official http://www.coolfacts.in Android app. We're very happy to announce this app for all our android fans.
No feedbacks?
App seems nice. It could be interesting to have a widget instead of opening app and I don't like when then text couldn't fit the page that you link to the site to read the rest of the news.

So I think it should have a scrollable text view for the facts so that I don't have to link to the website?

The idea is pretty good, a widget would make it great !
Even more with the new DayDram mode on Android 4.2 you could have your facts randomly displayed when the devices are docked or charging.
Could be fun.

Some updated functionalities include:
* Report false facts
* Copy the fact to clipboard and use/share it wherever you want!
Hope you like it, let me know your suggestions!
Force closes when I press "copy to clipboard" but other than that, cool.
Personally, if I were you, I would add a possibility to hide all the buttons at the buttom of screen for users who wouldn't use them. Maybe make the text a bit smaller (it's bigger on my 2.3.7 Gingerbread than on your screenshots, though) and maybe make the text "justify aligned" (I'm a bit fan of "justify alignment", lol)... Just some tips to make the app look a bit more simplistic, maybe.

I think I can include a button to toggle the visibility of all the buttons! that would be okay right?

Possibly.
Make a text size adjuster too, if you can .. and maybe center allign the text if "justify" is not possible in Androd (I dont think it is).

I like facts, so I like this app . It is also a bit addicting searching for new facts which are more or less useful to know .

Have I mentioned its a free app?!?
Just curious, for what violation did Google take down your previous app? Developers cannot completly remove apps, it didn't even show up in my installed apps so Google must have removed it for an infraction, why?
---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 PM ----------
Also second question, why does your app have camera permissions?

Hi AJM, they took it down for keyword spam. Funny cause that was taught online on how to get better ranking for keywords for having keywords 5 times in ur description but I guess Google now bans that strategy.
The camera permission is for setting up a user photo if you chose to have one, it for the social features. You can now write comments to articles and get voted up or down from other users. You get points for your activities to get on our leader board. Give it a try Thanks for your question.
I am thinking about adding video news clips to the articles. Let me know what you think. Thanks.
VOS News now has video clips!!! Get your up to date news coverage now in video format.
Looks like a great clean news app. Gonna give it a try! Gj dev for getting featured on the portal
Thanks so much for your support Gavin. Hope the community could find this app useful. Thanks again

Edit / Delete comments and ability to add other news sites
btw five stars already, good job!
Great app. Love the ui. I would like to see ability to add categories for custom topics and maybe a way to set location for weather and local news.

Great app so far, love the transparency in the app as well. Looks beautiful. One recommendation I'd make is maybe the option to filter/customize the type of news/news sources kind of like how play newsstand does it because to some people, "world" news would be irrelevant. Keep up the fantastic work though. Never enjoyed reading as much until this app!

Thanks budbay for trying out VOS. Great ideal on the custom topics, I will have a think on how to implement this feature. As for the weather, the reason it currently only does major cities because I didn't want to activate GPS to gather user locations. Maybe later with positive user approval we could activate the GPS to allow more accurate weather reporting.

Thanks again Gavin. Yes I think too its a great idea to allow a filter for topics as another XDA user has mentioned. I will work out an implementation for this feature and update you since it's ready.
Great app
I've been using Flipboard as my main source for catching news...that will now come to a end.
You've created a great and very good looking news reader that I'll use from now on. May I suggest the possibility to have multiple countries as source for the news feed? To me that would make this lovely news reader complete
Thank you for a work well done!

[Feedback Requested] Zymky - Android app for Managing Finances

Hey!
The last time I created an android application, XDA community helped me out in fixing bugs, conveying healthy feedback. I am once again requesting the community to lend their support and help me out iron the bugs and further improve the application.
The motivation behind developing this app was the fact that you have to shell out money to get a decent application for managing your finances. Having spent money on apps previously I thought of coming up with my own version of money manager, which could offer some of the premium functionality for no cost. I don't intend to make it paid or charge for paid features. However, I do request the users to lend in their support and valuable feedback

Here's what Zymky can do as of now:
Ability to record expenses, incomes (Duh!).
Set recurring transactions once and let the app automatically add to database at defined interval.
Understandable charts giving an overview of financials.
Tagged description. No annoying category drop-downs! Prefix any word with # to use that word as a tag.
Mark transaction with location for easier recall.
Defining budget to keep a check on spendings.
Travel mode, for the nomad in you!
Currency Converter
Daily reminders to ensure your don't forget to balance records.
Ability to backup and restore to/from local (phone) storage.
Syncing with Google account for backing up data in Google Drive.
Thank your for your time and effort in advance!
Note - The app is in a nascent stage in terms of features offered. I have a lot planned out for future versions.
Downloading Zymky:
There are 2 ways to get the application:
1. Direct download (same as play store version) - Version 4.0.2
2. Google Play Store - Zymky
Looking forward to your feedback! And please don't forget to rate the app

Thanks for the input! Good to know the design is nice
When you say income, do you mean something like a budget which the user can set for every month?

Wow. That UI is amazing.
You got ideas from someone or is this your own? Most developers (including myself) aren't really great at UIs.

UI is one thing I am focussing on since majority of similar applications tend to be more about managing numbers and put less focus on UI/UX itself. Good to know you liked it! Keep the feedback coming

Noted your point way back but couldn't reply earlier. Redid the overview page, it looks completely different now! It would be great if you could check the latest version and see how it goes for you.
And to all those who contributed up till now, thanks a bunch! Keep your reviews flowing
Added version 2.9. Improved a lot of things and added Travel Mode. Hope everyone will like it! And don't forget to share your feedback
Interface
Really lovely interface on this, welcoming and straightforward. The sticky notification is really useful for my ADHD too. Will start using this from tomorrow.
