So, I am working on a new Android app and I would love some input on it.
The basic idea is that you can easily "chat" with other random users. I find this very hard to explain without showing so I will just run through the process here. You launch the app then you can write something in a text box and "shout it". The message gets uploaded and then you download a message that someone else has shouted out. You can then either download another message or reply to the message you have, effectively initiating a conversation with that person.
All comments and feedback appreciated, preferably on the Connect-UTB forums but I will check here as well
UPDATE: The app is now out on the Market.. feel free to give it a go!
Interesting
Glad you think so! It will be on the Market soon enough I think, depending on what feedback I get from this limited beta test.
Add different colors for each user and make it like a live update not to press the Grab new shout then it updates Other then that the UI is Good.
Thanks for the ideas. I will make it grab a new shout when you post one (i think, maybe make it a setting).
Not sure what you're thinking when it comes to the colours though? Give each user a unique colour? As in their name? Something like:
Reply from Bob: Hey darling
Reply from Alice: Hey handsome

Yes exactly like that
So this is kind of like a chatroulette/omeggle kinda idea, is that right?
Interesting
Alright, I will give it some though.
I am not sure how to implement the live updates though. Been thinking about it for a while and havent decided on the best way to do this yet, so any suggestions would be welcome!

You could ask some twitter developers because they have the auto updating feature.
sorry i cant personally help im just learning java.
Yeah I agree, maybe there's an open source twitter app?
Re: [BETA][UNDER DEVELOPMENT]uShout
Its not the coding that is the problem, its just figuring out how I want it to be.
Also I'm figuring out how I shouts should be grabbed. Now it just grabs the newest (if you don't have any replies) so if lots of shouts are being posted then most of them might never be read. However I don't want users to get the same shout twice so I have some thinking to do.
Thanks for testing it though. I think it can be a fun app once it gets published on the market

1. Maybe add an option to make the random user a favourite or friend?
2. Also add an icon/picture to your name?
3. An option to add a picture to your post? i.e. "look what I saw today!" - picture.jpg

What do you think about implementing the Omegle protocol? That can provide a good number of users immediately.

Havent really considered it though I might take a closer look. I don't really think I will need it though
So who exactly would you be chatting with? Random users online? Creepy..
Pretty much yeah. Then again, those you talk to here are pretty random as well >_<

Would be neat for proximity shout and preference like only want to receive from a female/certain age/or only pictures if not already implemented.
Hmm, interesting. I have been wanting to keep images and pictures of it due to the nastyness that tends to show up. However, a male/female setting would be nice.
This is a promo app that plays Devine's 1st single, "We Fail" , off their first album titled "14 Steps to Stone"
: : : DEVINE : : :
Devine is an American heavy metal / Hard Rock Band blending elements of Rock, Hard Core, Metal, and Hip-Hop. However, this band is unique for more than just their sound but also in their peculiar arrangement. The band not only remains spread out over the United States but for nearly a year, and after a completed recording no one in the band had ever been in the same room!
for more to the story go to www.devineband.com
watch the music video here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ai33ZbWRIs
This is an awesome band I have been doing a lot of work with
This app was created in App Inventor because I have no idea what im doing but it does the job of letting people hear them and getting the word out lol
If anyone has a marketplace account and is willing to post this on the market for free then let me know!
Why would you bother to come on the Internet to post if your gonna hate?... {Edit: good to see the hateful post's deleted}
The basic principle of it is pretty great actually; I'd love to have a couple of my songs (per say) featured in a app that can be deleted, instead of having people download my song's & then have it get lost in their folders. They can delete it if they hate it with ease, or have a link in the app to your iTunes/Music page if they like it.
Everyone...
Just because a project here doesn't include you in the scope of people that it might be relevant to, that's no reason to come bashing those who created it or who are interested in it. If it's not for you, just move along....
oh god i'm embarrassed to have ever heard this

and thanks for looking
Can I just say that if you don't want feedback or opinions, constructive or otherwise, then a forum really isn't the place to be announcing your app.
I thought this forum was a place devs/users could gain feedback and discuss apps, if you aren't prepared to take the good with the bad then why post?

Because this is for people to offer constructive criticisms about the app, not needlessly hateful comments. Saying "this app sucks because i don't like the music" is not helpful in the slightest. We are supposed to be rating the app, not necessarily the music.
By the way, this is a brilliant idea for an app. I think NYGraFFit1 put it best

I was going to offer to throw it on the market for you, but I'm pretty sure you can't with AppInventor apps (I'm not sure, I'll look into it). I know you at least didn't used to be able to, but things may have changed.

That guy seemed to have put his app on the market somehow and he did his in app inventor too, so it is possible?
So a couple of weeks ago I started a page, and basically it is to help advanced, and unadvanced Android Users in someway. So if you would please help out, and "like" our page that'd be great. Like it here;

what if I dont have a facebook? Yes there are people out there who do not have them... I am one of them... I do, on the other hand have a Google+ if you were to make a circle there. Just a suggestion.

A Google+ circle would be useful as well, but other than that looks like a good start, you should post about new apps, and developments that form on XDA
Hi,
I am looking for a free program from Play Store that is similar to Samsung's S-note.
Basically I want to be able to draw on a blank canvas as well as be able to use paper with lines for writing.
Other features like adding shapes and pen colour would also be nice.
Any ideas ?
Thanks !

Older thread, but since i was looking for the same thing and came across one. I thought i would post it here just in case you were still looking
Try out Handwritting, can get it from Play store.
Doesn't have alot, but does a great job for a free app alternative to S-Note

Impressive! Just gave 5 stars, really well done! I'm using it as replacement on a Note 2 with custom rom. If I have to say, i would miss a fast note taking (little window like on stock rom, to take fast notes) and the chance to choose the kind of paper (i write music, i would use staff paper. Great job

Hello Matt,
I use your app as well and have really enjoyed it. I use it constantly at work. The fast response time of the program make it great for scribbling notes and whatnot. It would be the only one I need but I don't see an ability to draw shapes. That said, you did some great work mate.

Thank you for the kind review!
Other pro functions are exporting accounts of a single book to pdf format, as well as taking backup/restore of your database.
I don't know why the prices aren't showing though. Shows up fine in a friends phone.

It has the right amount of features. Just need one more where we can take pics of receipts. Then it will be perfect for me. Others apps are confusing because of too many unnecessary features.
And i like the look.

Thank you!! That was definitely one of our objectives. To keep the UI good, and not lose out on the essential features!
I'll see what I can do about your suggestion too
It is a good app I like the design and the simplicity. From what I have seen it is nice to not have a ton of features that I may not use but adding little by little will really get people fluid into your app. One thing I like (my personal opinion) is the ability to do a transaction from one account or in this case FOLIO to another so maybe that could be a feature you think of adding next.
