If anyone would be kind enough to grab me a few screenshots of my app for 7" and 10" tablet I would be very gratefull

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?

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

I've never been happy with a news app until now. The UI is slick. Great job.

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.
Sent from my One X using XDA Free mobile app

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!

[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

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.

Oh, and if all goes well, next update will include calculus!
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.

Hi!
I apologise, but we can't post the APK here right now.
However, you can find it in the Google play store in two ways:
Go to the google play store and search for "Calculus Interactive App". It should be first app to surface. Look out for our logo, you can't miss it.
Build the url link like so: <google play store domain>/store/apps/details?id=air.com.neumediatechnologies.calculus
You will have to replace the <google play store domain> with the actual Google Play domain.
Get the FREE Lite Edition!
You can now get the FREE Lite edition here
I'm personally in love with calculus and I'd really like to test this app. However, with the requirement of Adobe Air, I'm hesitant.
Sent from my Nexus Prime
Hi!
Thank you for your expressed interest!
A little bit of history, this app was originally a POC project developed on the flash platform, hence the need for Adobe air to run on android.
However, with your continuous support, we will work towards developing native applications in the future.

I really like the idea and think the app is well done. It looks great on my 720p Note 2 screen.
Some suggestions:
1) the title area in each individual 'lesson' is rather big and I believe making it smaller might allow you more room to space out the calculations and other text of the lessons to make everything a bit more readable (hopefully this makes sense).
2) the end of the whole differentiation lesson/concept doesn't bring you back to the main menu or offer any options to go back or continue or anything (or maybe it is a problem that occurred on my phone)?
3) pressing the back button during a lesson or video closes the app, this is somewhat annoying since most other apps i use, bring you back to the previous 'page' or 'menu' or whatever.
One question I have is if you would be able to expand from general calculus to put in some content and how it might relate to business calculus/principles/ideas? This would be very useful for me since I have always struggled with math and have yet to pass the business calculus class...if you need any help with testing or what not let me know, I'd be glad to help!
hi there...
just wondering but is there any ETA on when the full versoin will become available? i'm quite in love with your app...and would love to get the full version.

well they only finished one of the topics shown so far, i imagine it will take a decent amount of more time.
looks great and would have probably bought the paid version but I boycott Adobe ... No Air or even PDF reader on my phones/tablets for me.
Sorry

App for Event/Meeting/Party Management
Hi, I've been searching for an app that manages events, meetings, and all sorts of parties, with infinite different combinations of features needed from sending invites, remote/onsite checkins, web/database/calendar integration, tracking participants' locations and time stamps, history, etc., etc.... Anyone have a first hand knowledge of such an app that has served you well? Any leads would be appreciated.... Thanks!

There are a number of event planning apps on the google play store, for example Super Planner. Just search for "event planner" or "event planning." Since you want a lot, maybe two of them together will give you everything you need. If you are already using a desktop application to track all of these things, you can ask those developers if they are planning or already have integration for mobile devices. This would be a great solution if the desktop and the mobile device could be sync'd.

Exactly... we are still looking, there are SO many, and so many are just basic crap, just takes time... there are a couple of good ones but yes, desktop/PC integration would great... just thought someone could save me hours of time "testing" the good and bad event apps, its a tedious process, not exactly like testing a new game from the Amazon FAOTD where u know in 30 seconds whether u wanna keep it or not... to be continued.............
I love the old school video game emulators. With that said, fpse is boss. Wish someone could do a ps2 emulator.. also why doesn't the tw weather widget work in any other launcher? The AccuWeather one that is.
My favorite game is color sheep, very addictive and requise you to think very fast and distinct between different colors.
My favorite app is Google keep, the best notes app i know, very very simple.

Exactly, that's the point. The Google Playstore has got so many apps now, and even Google is failing to keep count of, and track, the numerous apps. Many apps have promising features, and when you install them, they are just crap. Either hanging your phone or doing some other ****ty thing. Only a handful apps deliver what we can call satisfactory. Eg, I was using ES File Explorer, and when I read so many thumb-up sort of reviews abt the astro file explorer. I installed it, and I found it to be crap. I reverted back to es, and now they've released a more awesome version of es file explorer.
While I don't have what you're searching for, but I agree that we have to go through a helluva testing time only to find that an app is pure crap.....
My favorite apps is all about photography such as perfectly clear it's really helpful for get a better pic .. And my favorite widget is Google Assist for sure.. It is really helpful

[APP][2.2+][20 MAR] Contactive Universal Caller ID

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.

Hey there. I can't include the link because I haven't been a member long enough (XDA requires 10 posts to include links)! You can find it in the Google Play store though! Sorry :]

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

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!
Thanks

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.
Excited to hear any other feedback you might have!

good app
I think XDA will post your App in Main page.. you can send request to them..
Added a lot things
Sent from my GT-S5300 using xda app-developers app
Why style the app like that? It doesn't follow any sort of design standard--it looks pretty bad. Why not use Android's buttons that are included?
mobile app
Am also Dev.. Adding button is easy but I don't find requirements of button in this app.
. light weight app shd be very easy to understand, fast in performance, etc...
If u guys add - option to load images or not it I'll be great... I like to read news not like to see image... If you do that this I'll be great app ever for news..

Thank you.
not sure
Really not sure why no reply from XDA guys...
Replace Google Reader/Feedly?
Great app! Just don't like to have a fixed list of news, would like to choose my own. Any plans to import from Feedly or old Google REader?
I hate to be that guy to ask this, but ....How is this any different from Flipbook for example? Don't get me wrong I truly appreciate any person willing to create apps but what makes this app better then the existing out there? It being just "lightweight"?
And lets hold back on the "why don't you just try it to see for yourself" reply as that doesn't really offer any insight for future users.
good idea
I feel its really good idea, you can implement the same.. Everyone has there own world.. I would like to read news what I like...
