Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a powerful app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

nice, works fine on my liquid )
does this check data usage for how many GB's you use in a month (for those like me that use over 5 GB a month. lol )
Yes, all you need is the right USSD command for your operator... just look for it online and add it in the app!
ill download this later
this is what I've been loking for!
will install when my HD2 finished being repaired..
Please don't forget to post your USSD commands!

*BAL# (*225#) for current billing balance.
*DATA# (*3282#) for data and messaging use.
*PAY to make a payment over the phone.
The app doesn't respond to the returned tests (streak 5). I added (104) to handcent's black list so it didn't pop up and the text is in the messaging inbox, but this app only shows"There is no predefined indicators"
I'm not sue I entirely understand. Could you please reiterate exactly what you set as the dial code, what message was returned and what have handsent and blacklists to do with it?
Thanks for the codes though, ill post them in the library thread

We didn't steal anything.
There have been similar apps for years, including on other platforms. What makes Balanced different is that its better - we have better widgets, better functionality and better support.
Perhaps you should write the people who made pandas vs ninjas and tell them how appauled you are at competitive markets... oh wait, you are the competition!
@ftgg99 this app looks great, i'll give it a try and give you my feedback. Thanks
This looks interesting, does anyone know any ussd codes for Cricket?
Sorry for my English. translate.google.com ... Motorola XT502, Android 2.3.3, does not work. Continuously requires reboot.
Hey how do i add an indicator for a USSD code? I have ATT. when i added the USSD i received texts back and that was it. In the app it says that the codes dont have any indicators. am i missing something?

How many times do I need to repeat myself? Balanced is not a copy of USSD Checker. The fact that android's list view is exactly the same in all applications doesn't mean we stole anything from you.
Balanced is similar, but better. This is the last time I respond to either your or your alter egos posts, please be so kind and complain directly to a mod or open another thread.

Blue Hunter (Android)
Hello and welcome to the development thread.
Here you can get an imagination of this project.
Introduction / Description
As you might know, Blue Hunter will be the follow-up of the Scan Most Bluetooth Devices game. The reasons for the complete restart of the same intent are those:
- Scan Most Bluetooth Devices was started up in 2010. At this time I had nothing to do with Java. I was a complete newbie. Therefore the code for the complete base was, to put it simply, ****. But I built on this base further and further. After some time I realized, that this can't be rescued anymore.
- The complete intern handling of things wasn't that, what I imagined.
- Some new features I wanted to get implemented were really not fitting into the game structure.
- And of course I wanted to do some new.
For those of you, who didn't know about Scan Most Bluetooth Devices, here is a short description of that, what the game should look like in the future.
Blue Hunter is a level-up game, in which you have to search for Bluetooth devices in range. Each unique device, that you'll find will give you some EXP. While gaining more an more EXP, you will, of couse, get into the next level. For each level-up you will unlock specific small game features, that will make it more comfortable to play. That's not all. You will have the chance to decide, if you also want to play against the others, who play this game, too. For that there will be the Leaderboard. Later you will also be able to add friends, make a player vs. player game, establish your own clan, etc. Achievements will also be integrated.
Changelog
Check out the changelog for a more descriptive view of the changes made.
Screenshots
Permissions
This game uses some Android Permissions. Here I want to explain, for what these Permissions are used:
- android.permission.BLUETOOTH - Is used to receive the state of Bluetooth and to start the discovery of Bluetooth devices.
- android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN - Is used to turn Bluetooth on, when necessary.
- android.permission.INTERNET - Is used to connect to the internet, to get the game synchronized with the game servers.
- android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE - Is used to determinate internet connectivity change.
- android.permission.VIBRATE - Is used to notify the user about a new found device by vibration.
- android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - Is only used for debug purposes.
- android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED - Used for the Update Service, which runs in the background and checks if there is a new update.
- android.permission.WAKE_LOCK - This is also for the Update Service.
Compatibility
As this game is still in a very early development stage (pre-beta), this game can only be installed on devices with Android ICS (4.*) and above.
Translations
Like in Scan Most Bluetooth Devices I depend on the community for getting translations.
At this point I want to ask you, if you think you can translate the game into your language. If this is the case I really would like to send you to the strings.xml file. There you'll find all strings, that can be translated. Later I will integrate a small platform for translators, which will make them lifes easier. Much easier ! But also this takes time.
Included Translations:
- English
- Dutch (Marc.)
- Czech (Scorpio-cz)

Privacy
Here I want to explain to you, what private information located on your device and got from other devices through Bluetooth is used by this game. This list contains and explains ALL gathered information from the game, you might worry about.
- Serial Number (S/N) - The game uses the serial number of your device, to determinate the installation of the game and to identify the unique game installation. The purpose of the use is, if you reset your Android to factory and after that install the game, it can automatically drag over the application data from the server, without user interaction.
This information is sent to the game server and stored in a database.
- Version Code - This is the internal version code of the game. It is used to check, if a new nightly version is available.
This information is sent to the game server and stored in a database.
- User Name - This is the name you use for the game. It is used to give you personalization possibilities. It's also showed in the leaderboard.
This information is sent to the game server and stored in a database.
- Remote MAC Address - This is the MAC Address of devices which you will found. It is used to determinate the manufacturer of the device and to give you specific expierence values for each manufacturer. (Some devices are more rare than others.)
This information is ONLY sent to the game server, when you are syncing your data with the game server.
- Remote Device RSSI - This is the Received Signal Strength Indication. This is used to display as information to you.
This information is ONLY sent to the game server, when you are syncing your data with the game server.
- Remote Device Name - This is the name of the remote Bluetooth device. This is used to display as information to you.
This information is ONLY sent to the game server, when you are syncing your data with the game server.
- Local Time - This is the time, that is saved, when you find a new device. This is used to display as information to you.
This information is ONLY sent to the game server, when you are syncing your data with the game server.
Note: All the information gathered by the game from your device or other devices is not associated with any other data or information. It will not be used for ad personalization or other things. It is not given to 3rd party companies or persons. This information is private and is only gathered to guarantee an optimal game experience. Your information is used to create statistics for the game itself.

Not sure that mapping people Bluetooth names on phones is a good idea even if its just a game. Seems to similar to what Google did with WiFi.

I can understand, that many people like you think very sceptical when it comes to terms of privacy and use of private information by third parties in an application, that can collect a mass of information. I'm aware of the current mindset of people and therefore privacy is a big term I'm mindful of.
That's why I've written the privacy section in the first post that extensive. Of course the list in this section will be updated, if new information is used in the current available nightly.
And that with Google & WiFi. If a big company had the information based on the Bluetooth devices, what would it be useful for ? I mean a Bluetooth device is in very most cases, unlike WiFi hotspots, in a continually movement. The only information, that a Bluetooth device automatically can offer passively and when it is in it's discoverable state is it's mac address, the specific name the user has set, the signal strength(RSSI) and the UUIDs (what this Bluetooth device offers for features). A combination of this information would be mostly useless for a company, even if it is connected with the specific location. The only case in which it could be "useful" would be to connect each different locations, when finding this specific device. But this thought is far-fetched and would be in a very huge conflict with my privacy perception. It would never be implemented in the game. And now to refer to the privacy section, I won't make any information public. The intent of this game is to level up by finding devices, not to gather information.
I hope this gave you a short explanation of my perception on this.
Greetings !
Sorry, about the double post.
In the newest nightly there is the possibility to get informed, whether a new nightly is already available. In addition to that, you can decide, whether the game checks this at start or not.
Because of this, there is one new thing in the privacy list. It's the 'Version Code'. For further information please read the first post. Thank you !
The next thing, that will be integrated is the "core". It's the complete Bluetooth device discovery. Eventually without saving, just discovery. We'll see.
Greetings !
As the game makes good progress and heads for the 0.2 alpha, I updated the Privacy list recently. The core functions are now implemented and I think now I need some volunteers to test the whole thing.
Here some screenshots:
In the third screenshot you can see, that the manufacturer of the devices are recognized based on the mac address.
My please to you is:
Can you report any devices that are declared as Unknown and you know the manufacturer ? That would be very helpful, because then I can set a specific experience-value for these manufacturers. Thanks alot !
Have fun hunting !
You just replied when I wanted to say some things about this game
First of all, it's coming pretty good again, but there are a few things missing ( What makes it nicer for me )
- A automatic update, for example you get a notification of a update is available. Press the notification to update to the newest nightly.
- A vibrate function when a device is found.
- The ranking board.
- The time you find a device added at the place of a discovery ( just add a rule ).
- An ongoing notification so you know it's running in the background.
I tested it today a lot and I think the features I said should be implented.
Bugs:
- When you open the game and press no for bleutooth then do the slider to ON and say again no for bluetooth the slider will stay at ON and it should be at OFF.
- The menu button ( the 3 dots ) is from the slider to the end of the screen clickable. Maybe this should only be a square at the right side of the screen?
- Animations are slow ( Even on a Galaxy Nexus with 4.1 ), they stutter, I mean the user Information. And also when you go into settings and touch information for example.
- If you go to found devices and touch the search button the settings button and the X of the search field are on top of each other.
And on what is the amount of XP based?
Also 2 MAC adresses with manufactures:
40:2C:F4 HP (laptop)
70:F1:A1 Dell Wireless 370 Bluetooth Mini-card
I think you don't need any more numbers of the mac adresses?
Thanks for giving a update on this.
Can we carry over scores from Scan Most Bluetooth Devices?
@Bunglechunk:
Yes, there will be an import function to use, so you can carry over your score.
As I'm not able to use my own workstation, you won't receive any updates, like some of you may noticed. But that doesn't mean, that there wasn't any progress. I could add some more features and now I'm working on some help pages for users, that may not know some features. You will receive a nightly update as fast as possible.
Greetings!
After long time of silence in this thread, I want to notify you few users of Blue Hunter, that I've updated the first post, especially the Privacy section. This applies to all new nightly versions, that are currently out there.
For more information on the changes, please be sure to look into the changelog.
As for general I can say, the development goes and goes. It feels much more professional as it was when developing for Scan Most Bluetooth devices (which interestingly got much downloads in the past from Google Play).
Also I appreciate if you would take the time to use the Bug Tracking System to report your bugs, you noticied.
Thank you for your support!
Greetings!
Re: [GAME] Blue Hunter [IN_DEV][0.2PRE_ALPHA]
If you send the strings that need to be translated please do... I didn't know that my translation was outdated... And the auto-check for updates doesn't work anymore, thanks for developing again
Edit: I had instant FC's so I set my pass, and did the 'rebuild local database', I think I backed up my score by logging in, now my score is gone :'( Is it possible to retrieve my score? Because I did login.
Hey Guys,
I wanted to notify you, that Blue Hunter has reached Alpha state. Until now there is a support version available on the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maksl5.bl_hunt_sup.
This will help, keep me motivated to make something really great out of this project, so be sure to check it out.
Blue Hunter now has achievements, which will let you get a permanent boost of EXP, when finding a new device. Also here be sure to check that out! I updated the first post on this thread. There you can find the information.
Now I will focus on the social aspects of the game. Like I said, I want, that you can make 1vs1 games against other players in a specific time period. This also applies to clans, that you can lead or enter. You will have the chance to get friends and write them messages or to boast with your statistics. This is where I wanna have this game and I will concentrate on that for now.
Until this, I really have to ask that stupid question again. Do you have time to translate? Write me a PM. I'm very thankful for that.
Greetings, have a nice day!
Thanks for updating the app again! It's fun to play it now because you can achieve something. For the translation, please send the untranslated strings by PM to me

Hey MaksI5!
Nice that you are still on this project!
I can do the translation into Swedish and proof read English if needed (I will look into it). How do you want the translation? Just plain translation by editing the strings.xml file on Github? How do you want me to handle Swedish letters å,ä,ö?
@Marc. & NRK77:
Thank you for the time! You can find it here: https://github.com/Maksl5/blue-hunter/blob/master/res/values/strings.xml. Again this file is mostly updated with new strings on each version increment. You just have to send me the translated strings back via PM here or mail, what you like most. Specific characters are no problem. You can use them in your translation. I will check it and then handle it, like Android needs.
Thank you again!

No problem at all! I like this game, hope there will be as many players as in SMBD.
I've begun the translation, it will take a week or two to complete.
One error you might look into: I have the automatic check for updates option on. Every time I start the app, it says there's a new version. It says my build is 1143 and 1144 is available. If I download 1144 and install it, the app still tells me the same as before: I currently have 1143 and 1144 is available.
One other problem I'll write in a PM.
Maksi5, are you still around? Ich hoffe dass du nicht in dem deutsche Wald verloren ist.
[Written by my thumbs using Taptalk 4.]
So guys, after some delay, I'm starting to develop further. Sorry for that, but I had many things to do for a while.
I just could integrate a new small feature. I don't talk about much, 'cause pictures say more then words:
Screenshot (Dropbox)
The whole social aspects thing... I did not touch it. But I will. Be sure.
@Snah:
This is a bug that automatically occurs, when I'm too dumb to compare and check the version numbers of the apk and the actual AndroidManifest.xml. Don't worry about it, it fixes itself in the next nightly.
BTW: What do you think about saving geo coordinates when finding a device to show them on a map at a later time?

It will not be one of the versions that probably go down in history this 3.10.9, which takes the place of the previous 3.9.17, but, no matter how small, the innovations introduced are numerous and we're not sure appreciated them all.
We start from the section recommended for you. Whether it's app or books (advice on music yet they are not), or even if you are on the homepage of the store, blocking the slice with the Google personalized recommendations you'll notice that at the top there is a new voice, "improve these councils, "which allows us to add people you know to find out their tastes and also receive recommendations based on them (or so says the description of the function). Good theory, too bad that the vast majority of contacts proposed were complete strangers from the other side of the world, with which (we checked) we did not even vague contacts on Google+. We look forward to a future refinement.
Then continue with the translations. Some apps now have a button "translate" at their description, which basically will only call into question Google Translate on the fly to change the text in a language more understandable to us. In this case the theory is good, pity we did not understand when and when not to appear: comparing different applications, different languages, some of them had the button translate it and other were completely lacking. Also in this case we are confident in a future refinement.
If these two functions must be short andarsele a little 'to seek, we turn now to a thing you will see rather often. You will all familiar with the installation of new apps: you choose one, went on his page, click on install, accept the permissions and you will be thrown back to the description of the app while the progress bar will indicate the percentage of completion. Not any more. After accepting the permissions, and then return to the description of the app, you have inserted a new page, which you can see an example on the right. The aim is to highlight related app and installed by others, but the match as you know is not always the best, by clicking on "back to shopping" you will still be redirected to the description of the app to start. We did not find a way to disable this feature, which basically requires a tap in to install any new app. Annoying.
And finally we come to the last news, the only one on which we could hardly rely on something: it is now possible to remove items from the wish list by tapping on the icon in that list, without having to open a description of each app. It is the same method used to delete applications from the complete list of all the ones we have ever installed and certainly saves us a few more steps. Nicely done.
After then the description of the new features, I leave you the link to download the Play Store:http://d-h.st/ZZB
Thank you for the hint!

Hi, I recently took an Android Development at my school where I made this Flashcards Study App.
There's still a lot of work I want to complete before I call it finished, but it's a good start I think. I still want to add more quizlet functionality to it (since quizlet.com doesn't seem to have an android app yet.)
Download the App!
Some features:
* Offline Mode to study on the go without an internet connection.
* Adjust card flip speeds in the settings menu
* Long press on a deck to view options
* Shuffle your flashcards
* Search Quizlet to access millions of flashcard sets.
* Edit, Delete, and Create new flashcards with a breeze
* Text-to-speech integration
* Multi-language support
* Identify your strengths and weaknesses by keeping track of how well you know a card.
* Reverse Question and Answer sides on cards
* Improved UI
EDIT:
I attached an apk that you guys can use since I can't seem to post a link to the play store.
Or alternatively, You can search for "CardCloud FlashCards" in the play store to get the official app.
I'd recommend it since I'm planning on pushing a lot of new features in the upcoming weeks.
Thanks!

Hey. Sorry. It doesn't seem to let me post links since I'm a new member.
Here's an uploaded APK file you can use in the meantime
Or you can search for "CardCloud Flashcards" in the play store if you want the official version.
Thanks for trying it out!
Definitely let me know if you run into any problems.
So far nice ui
Works good. Is it possible to share own decks with friends? It would be amazing, also an option for read only and read write permissions for shared decks.

Thanks for the compliments!
Sharing is definitely a feature i'm going to be adding in the feature. Right now i'm torn between integrating some sort of facebook social network to allow for easier sharing. I've been busy trying to learn Ruby on Rails Development and Android Dev at the same time, so the cardcloud website is a bit lacking at the moment. But Sharing is definitely a big feature I want to implement.
Currently I'm in the middle of adding an ability for users to mark each card as easy/hard and then creating an infinite shuffle that will have a smart algorithm to show difficult cards more often.
That should be about two weeks out, and then I'll start working on the Deck sharing.
Great suggestion on the Read/Write permissions too! I think that would be an awesome feature, I've written it down on my notepad, so definitely stay tuned to this thread for any updates I make!
Thanks for trying out my app!
Redesign Icon
Hey buddy I think this app is great for studying and for group activities. Love what you have done. I also like the UI I made this icon for you just cuz i like messing around with Photoshop haha hope you like it

Hi. Great app. Is it possible to manually edit or create a set on a PC and transfer / open / import into the application?
A quick way of implementing this might be to add CSV or XML export and import?
Perhaps a link up to Google docs for cloud storage and on line editing?
Also, would you consider the addition of images on the flip cards? Perhaps a HTML format would make this easy to implement? A picture paints a thousand words and all...
Keep up the good work and I hope its a great success.
Steve.
**************************** [Edit] ****************************
Opening a quizlet with images renders nothing visible on the card
Steps to reproduce...
1. Search 2010 Honda Cars
2. Select any of the results
3. See the text (e.g. "2010 Honda civic") but on clicking the card to see the flip side - there is nothing.
Here is what is should look like... http://quizlet.com/1935486/2010-honda-cars-flash-cards/
**************************** [/Edit] ***************************
CardCloud - Flash Cards
CardCloud,
Great effort thus far ... you've added the ability to create card sets! This is HUGE.
Some tips I hope you're able to fix in the coming updates, please.
1. Settings - there should really only be on 'settings' button for the app (the vertical elipses button; top right/bottom right corners).
2. Logon - should be a little more clear "what" service the logon pertains to.
- I thought the ability to logon to Quizlet would work with this ?? I'm an Android newb and I've already realized things are "assumed/presumed" to be known to new users, which its not clear on many applications or the OS itself.
3. KEEP the "skip logon" this is critical and I've come across many notes type apps that I cannot even create a note when in the subway because they require a persistent internet connection = total pain in the ass and useless! You've got a good thing going with this "skip logon" ability please KEEP IT Much appreciated.

Thanks! I'm planning on adding that feature pretty soon. Right now I'm on the verge of adding support for marking cards as either correct or incorrect. Also I'm adding in an in-app purchase to remove ads. I've also been working on the website portion of my app (cardcloud.net) which will allow you to upload your local decks onto a website (once you create an account) once it's uploaded, you'll be able to export from the site.
That's still a work in progress, hopefully in a week or two, I'll have that ready for you.
In the meantime, you can expect an update for marking the correctness of each card in the next day or two!
Thanks for the compliments, and thanks for trying out my app!

2. Logon - should be a little more clear "what" service the logon pertains to.
- I thought the ability to logon to Quizlet would work with this ?? I'm an Android newb and I've already realized things are "assumed/presumed" to be known to new users, which its not clear on many applications or the OS itself.
3. KEEP the "skip logon" this is critical and I've come across many notes type apps that I cannot even create a note when in the subway because they require a persistent internet connection = total pain in the ass and useless! You've got a good thing going with this "skip logon" ability please KEEP IT Much appreciated.

Hey! Supa_Fly, thanks for the kind words.
I really like the idea of the skip button for logins. The reason the login is there is to allow users to sync their decks with the website portion of the app. (CardCloud.net) But I've been busy working on the app and haven't had a chance to get the webapplication completed yet. Hopefully in the next week or two You'll be able to backup your local decks/cards onto a website, where you can save them on a computer.
The settings functionality is a bit confusing, so I've done a bit of tinkering with it to make it more intuitive to use. Thanks for the suggestions though! I really appreciate the feedback.
In the meantime, I'm working on a v1.2 release which will allow users to mark cards as either correct/incorrect/half-correct/etc, to help with remembering your learning progression. Keep an eye out for that. Hopefully I'll be able to push that up to the google store by tomorrow. I'll also update this thread once that's complete!
Thanks again for trying my app!
Hey. Just uploaded an update to the current App on the Appstore.
Some New features:
* Identify your strengths and weaknesses by keeping track of how well you know a card. Mark a card as Correct/Incorrect/etc
* Reverse Question and Answer sides on cards
* Improved UI
* Settings AutoSave when changed, rather than having to hit a save button
* When Viewing a Deck from Quizlet, download the deck directly from the cardview for your convenience.
* Change your settings (flipspeed and question/answer reversal) from the cardview.

Hi, my girlfriend wrote out 20 sets as study for her exam on Wednesday. Her phone updated your app and it seems her card sets have been deleted (or lost). :crying:
Is your new updated version deleting user inputted card sets?
I'd greatly appreciate a quick response if you have a way to retrieve them.
PS, where are the card sets saved? In files (what location in phone)? Perhaps we can retrieve them manually?
Thanks, Steve.
Hey sd00, I'm really really really sorry that happened.
I found a bug in my code that was clearing the sqlite DB on updates.
I fixed the bug, but unfortunately it looks like her cards have been wiped.
This is embarrassing, I'm a noob and didn't realize that would happen.
There's nothing I can do, but promise it won't happen again.
For what it's worth, If I sent you guys an ad free version of that app, would that help?
Again, I'm really sorry, let me know what I can do to try to make it better.
I'm working on the ability to create decks online and then sync them to your phone, so hopefully that'll make it easier in the future to recreate the decks.
(If you'd like, you can even send me the questions/answers and I'll type them back up for her myself.
if you pm me an email address, I can send you an apk for the free version too.
Again, I apologize for my noobness.
For such a new app - this was an unforeseen mistake by the developer. The fact that he's VERY apologetic and this app does offer some great features over the competition I'll still support this app!
As experience is gained and more testing directly by the developer we'll this app continually excel and grow in feature sets and less bugs. Not many people appreciate developers' hard work and even less developers are as humble as this one.

Hey Supa_Fly, thanks for the kind words and support! It's been a lot of fun working on this app and I've learned a lot from the experience. Hopefully as I improve, so will the app. Sorry again to sd00 for the bug. I spent a few days testing and retesting to make sure it wouldn't happen again before I pushed up the newest update this afternoon.
I've been working on the syncing functionality the last week or so and I got it finally working the way I wanted. Not 100% yet, but allowing users to create their decks online I think is a necessary feature, since writing out individual cards on a phone is a pain. I'd like to tweak it a bit to make syncs work faster/better, but I'm slightly limited by my web server since it's a bit slow. Hopefully if I can generate any revenue through the app, I'll be able to put it towards faster servers. I'll keep an eye on the bug log to make sure nothing goes awry though.
I've pushed the new features up onto CardCloud.net allowing users to login to their accounts and create their cards online. Also, I uploaded the app updates to the google play store so users should be able to get the updated app with fixed functionality. Hopefully I didn't mess anything up this time .
In the meantime, I have a couple new features in the pipes that I'm working on that I think should improve the app. Hopefully I'll be able to get these pushed out in the upcoming weeks:
- Image support for flashcards. Definitely a top priority feature, should have an update for this within the next few weeks.
- Rich Text Editing. Another top level feature I want for the app.
- Better Quizlet integration. Search for usernames, and returning public decks, recently studied, etc
Anyways, sorry for the wall of text. When I get new features implemented for this app, I will post them here.
Development stops?

Hello
I wrote a shopping list application, in which i focused on a speed in
which you can create a shopping list and share(and update after that)
it with your friend. So i avoided any forms often frequented in this
type of applications, and came up with a very simple design. You would
just enter your items into the text field with some autocomplete,
adjust the amounts, then click sharing button, select your friend and
that's it.
I also use Google App Engine for server side to keep this free.
I wrote this a while ago, now i would like to improve it to add some
more features, so any feedback and ideas for improvement would be much
appreciated

Cool app. I like it. Clickable link :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kaukas.sharedsl
I got this idea to many time ago, but was something like ( you should add it) a "social tasks" list, for example, there are some few tasks to do at home, you put this in the social to-do lists and everyone in the family could see the lists, and when the tasks are completed, they should be notified or the task deleted from the social list!!
Just watch the démo vidéo ans it looks really nice !

Really nice app, follows some feedback:
Try to implement the native ActionBar or use SherlockActionBar. Using just the native ActionBar will make your app incompatible with versions below 3.0. Using Sherlock your app will be compatible with 2.1 and above. This will make the app more integrated to the system.
Other changes you can make on this aspect is read the Design Guidelines (sorry I can't post links), learn some thing about good designs and look for other apps searching for inspiration.
Good! My housemates install this app too!

Hi @GammaL, great app!
Can you please add compatibility with Hebrew language? I mean, not a translation - an RTL support on the shopping list.
Please refer to the screenshot I added, to understand the problem.
You can see that the First item in the list is in English and is perfectly readable. The second item, is in Hebrew and automatically aligned to the right, so it's getting in line with the other buttons.
I use OurGroceries app. It is a pretty similar app and easy to use it would be worthwhile a look for feature set. That app also works on iOS and BB platform making it appealing to much wider audience. http://www.ourgroceries.com/

Agreed Holo please. http://developer.android.com/design/get-started/ui-overview.html
Also, maybe you might want to integrate Google Tasks or some more popular to do list manager, like Any.do or Toodeldo. That would make this app truly extraordinary.
Downloaded it but have not tried it yet, but I like the idea
Was wondering, how the data is transmitted from one phone to another ... is it over some server that you have setup?
What if other users end up with similar names? Would every Maryxx receive the list?
Would it be better if those big "- & +" are replaced with a simpler "< & >" or maybe even a manual entry box? Reason for a manual entry box is maybe the item required is 2.5kg or maybe 1.5 cartons or 1.5 litre of milk.
Thanks for your app
How do I login to a username or nickname that I've already created with this app? I downloaded it Friday but flashed a new rom Saturday, so now I can't use the same nickname I created Friday, and my wife is annoyed with me lol.

I had the same problem. This is the only weakness in an otherwise great app. The advice was to create a new new name and get the wife to share again. Was a but complex to achieve.
