[APP][4.0.3+] Black Box - Biased Decision 1.3 (Last updated 28 Sept 2014) - Android Apps and Games

Black Box is a biased decision maker. You just have to tell it the choices you have, and give each choice a score. Based on the choices and the weighing, it will pick a random choice for you.
It is called “Black Box” because it comes with an invisible hand. Apart from the choices, you can also create rules to manipulate the random draw, and that’s why it is a biased decision maker. It never makes a fair draw.
Features:
Create multiple Black Boxes for different kinds of decision
Allocate weighing for each choice, and the weighing will affect the chance of the choice being picked
Create rules to manipulate the random draw, by setting the result directly, or changing the weighing of a particular choice
Provide statistics showing how many times each choice is picked (only valid for each application session)
Types of rules available:
Autocracy (The rule will always be valid)
Weekday (The rule will be active on specific weekday)
Day of Month (The rule will be active based on the current day in the month)

When working in office, it's difficult to decide where to have lunch, especially in urban like Hong Kong where huge amount of restaurants are densely packed in a small district. So during my last job I had an Excel macro to randomly pick a restaurant from a weighed list. And since I left that job and I wasn't able to bring that Excel file away from the company, so I wrote this app for the same purpose. And this is my first app and therefore it does not have many features in this initial release, but the idea is here - make a choice with your own manipulation.
The Chinese name of this app literally means the same as "Black Box Operations", pretty much describing what is happening in Hong Kong.

[Game][2.2+] deScribe, a Pictionary-Telephone style game.

Hello fellow XDA members!
Back in December I published my first app to the Play store. I have since had some time to do a few updates and have pushed a new version today. I would very much appreciate some feedback if you have any.
------------

The game is called deScribe. It is similar in concept to a now defunct website called BrokenPictureTelephone (BPT), or the still functioning site, EatPoopUCat. I used to really enjoy BPT when it existed and thought that this would be a perfect game for a touch device. The only ones I could find on the play store were severely lacking in drawing capabilities and overall polish (in my opinion).
-------------
In this game, you can decide if you'd like to draw a picture from someone else's description or describe one that someone else has already drawn. Often the beginning idea gets a bit garbled by the end and it can be quite humorous to see the results.
There are leader boards representing the most voted for artists of all-time, this month and this week.
You can choose to get notifications when someone takes a turn in one of your games, someone comments on one of your games or someone stars a drawing of yours.
You can look at someones profile and see some basic stats about them (how many drawings/descriptions they've done, how many stars earned, etc.
You can choose your own profile image. Either choose from an included list or draw your own!
Play store link
Comments, suggestions, downloads, and play store ratings greatly appreciated!
looks lovely
:good:
I will try it later.
Did anyone have a chance to look at this yet? Any feedback you have would be appreciated.
I released a minor update today [edit: actually 2. couldn't help myself]. It is syncing to the play store but that can take 1-2 hours, so I have attached the free version below as well. Changes include:
1.12
-----
-more bugfixes
-added ability to copy a layer
-added ability for fill color to be different from shape border
1.11
-----
-bugfixes
-added individual layer transparency
-improved notifications to take advantage of new Jelly Bean api
As always, feedback is always appreciated.

[App][4.0+]Work Calculator 1.1
This looks great. I have been looking for an app like this as I normally use an oline calculator to figure out these numbers. I will try it and let you know. Thanks
Just downloaded this app, looks great. I don't really have too much use, as I'm a student, but I can see how people might find this useful
Been using time recording pro for over a year now. Always willing to try new things and report back. Does the app have tasked and or NFC support?

No it doesn't but since it's one of the first versions it's gonna get more features later.
Thank you for your interest!
the app looks great, actually cool idea and concept.
Will you be open-sourcing it?
I wanted to contribute and work on app like yours.
I have basic knowledge of Android Programming and strong Java Experience.
Good Luck :good:
Can you add a feature to calculate "health"?
wealth without health means nothing at all.
couldnt resist. sorry for pulling your leg
looks cool. I get paid commission only. Would be perfect if I could manually enter each sale to keep track easier and make sure I'm reaching my monthly goals. Keep up the good work
Version 1.2 is updated and new features were added.
Also apk is updated in attachments.
Feature request
Great app and could have many uses.
Any chance you can setup a per day rate? There are many potential users that work on a day rate or even a salary with commissions.
Just wondering is all.
Keep up the great work.

Thank you very much!! Yes there is a new version with much more than 2 times of the features and a lot of new theming options. It has not been released because I'm searching for a new (and final) name for it and I've to optimize some features. For the moment I'm working on new Lollipop themes I will sent you a pm with a link to my private beta version. I think, you will like it
To do before next official release:
- Lollipop theme (s)
- a floating button for some extra functions
- create a preference activity for all the new additional options
- maybe replacing all my activitys by fragments
- maybe implementing some "Pro"-features as the app has become to a great daily driver for math, physics and economics
The change-log of my current (private) beta:
- more than 80 new classses with much more than 300 new variables (and some great features as I'm studying math and economics)
- new economics category with a lot of features
- option to choose your icons (square, circle, rounded edge, random)
- option to choose your prefered design (pattern, simple icons, tiles (like Windows Phone), "Simplistic" (like IOS 7/8),...
- more scroll animations
- a navigation drawer
- more themes (for example a transparent one for using you (live) wallpaper as app background
- no ads (file size has been reduced to only the half of the current official version)
- and much much more
[...]
Coming soon...
Best regards!
[Reserved for v2]
There is coming something new...
Yesterday I released the new version under a new name.

There is more coming every day unfortunately. But the app will show you all available currencies as long as they are tradeable because the data is pulled remotely. @LeMoise do you have any suggestions what I could improve? Currently working on an update to convert everything to other Fiat Currencies and also show prices in BTC.

I'll play with it for a day or two and let you know what I think Showing prices in BTC would have been the first thing I suggested.
Since creation of this thread i released 2 new versions of this app. The following features/changes have been introduced:
the result list is now sortable by marketcap, price, 24h change and crypto currency name
you can select a currency to show the prices in, i added many popular currencies like USD, EUR, BTC, HKD etc. ( @LeMoise thanks for the suggestion of that feature)
interface overhaul; the ui is now more responsive and tweaked in many aspects
decreased bandwidth consumption by caching the fetched results more frequently
Thanks to everyone who gives the app a chance. If you have any suggestions for improvements or other apps please let me know and I'll see what I can do

[APP][5.0+] Algeo Graphing Calculator - Powerful Scientific Calc

I've started to develop Algeo way back when I was in college studying engineering. Builtin calculator apps lack many features one needs in advanced math: variables, complex numbers, predefined constants, graphing. So I decided to build my own, and over the years I've added more and more features. It has basic calculus support now, builtin constants to speed up calculations and effective graphing.
It also has a nicely formatted input mechanism that displays formulas similar to LaTeX, instead of squeezing everything into a single line (see the screenshots below). I've found it much easier to understand when you have nested divisions and square roots.
Features
Physical constants
Symbolic Differentiation
Calculate Integrals (definite only)
Calculate Taylor-series
Solve Equations
Draw function
Sharing calculations
Function plotting and finding roots of functions
Combinatorial functions
Number theoretic functions (modulo, greatest common divisor)
Find min, max, intersections and roots on graphs
Themes (with in-app purchases)

Feedback
Please leave your comment or request in this thread, I will visit it regularly. Also, you can send an email to the following address: [email protected].
Thanks for your support! Enjoy it!
comparing to other similar apps, it s much smoother
well done ?
I've just released version 2.17! The biggest new feature, requested by many, is displaying graphs with polar coordinates. Until now, only cartesian plots could be drawn but there are many other type of plots (side note: I plan to include parametric functions as well in the future). With polar coordinates, you can draw spirals and circles as well. To switch between cartesian and polar coordinates, click on the top right button in the graph input screen.
All the changes in the new version:
Polar coordinates
Added French translation
Larger keyboard for phones with large screens
Fixed a bug with powers of large exponent
Fixed a bug with stuck keyboard on first start
I've uploaded a new version for Christmas, with a minor tweak: you can now slide the keyboard down. This lets you see more of your calculation history without excessive scrolling. Enjoy!
I really enjoyed the app, it is such a good replacement for my calc when I forget mine at home. Keep up the good work
I just wanted to send an updat, since December several minor version were released. These were mostly small bugfixes, for example sometimes after a parentheses power was placed incorrectly, looking ugly. Also fixed some crashes.
We have introduced an UI change that lets you easier call copy&paste options. Unfortunately, we have so far mixed reviews. If you have any comments on it, we would like hear it!
There is a new version on the play store! Aside from many small bugfixes, a new feature arrived to graphing: it is possible to make the axes always visible on the screen. This is useful if you are inspecting values away from the origin. Also, you can pull the keyboard down so more of the history is visible (this was actually in an earlier release but I forgot to mention it before )
I have included you app in my comparative review of advanced calculator apps.
