Hello everyone!
We have released pressureNET 2.1 and are excited to hear your feedback. The app is mostly only useful on devices with barometers, such as the Nexus 4, Nexus 10, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy SIII and Xoom, but all Android 3.0+ devices can run it. We've built a worldwide network of atmospheric pressure measurements and have collected more than 8 million so far. We hope to use the data in order to improve short-term, local weather prediction. If you check out our blog below, you can see a teaser of the incredible resolution we have for events like Hurricane Sandy.
The new update brings important bugfixes and a new UI along with the announcement that we're going to be releasing a fantastic tool within a few days that lets you view all of the data on the web.
You can download pressureNET from Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ca.cumulonimbus.barometernetwork
And see the source code for the app at https://github.com/JacobSheehy/pressureNET and for the server https://github.com/JacobSheehy/pressureNETServer
And if you're looking for more details, check out our blog entry at www.cumulonimbus.ca/pressurenet-2-1/
Thanks and have a nice day!
We have just released our first Data Visualization tool for pressureNET. This is also open source (github.com/JacobSheehy/pressureNETAnalysis) and it lets you view the data that we're collecting.
Until now, it was very difficult for our users to know what kind and what quality of data we were gathering. Now you can go to http://pndv.cumulonimbus.ca and view our archive over the last year. The page shows a couple of datepickers and a google map as controls: move the map around, change the dates and watch the graph load. You'll see a plot of all atmospheric pressure measurements we've collected during the timeframe you specified and within the latitude/longitude grid visible on your map selection.
We are working now with atmospheric scientists to make use of this data in the best way we can. Our primary goal is to improve the state of weather prediction for everyone, especially smartphone users .
Enjoy! And if you have feedback, please let me know. We are working every day (especially during the holidays, since this is all done in our free time) to build the best products we can. Thanks again for your time.
Another quick update for the XDA community: We were recently featured in Wired Magazine!

Hello everyone, after a long time testing I would like to introduce my SpyVisio app in the hope that you find it useful.
SpyVisio is a sort of swiss army knife of the remote surveillance and device safety. This lightweight and compact app encloses a set of functions that can transform your phone into a powerful instrument of control (webcam, ipcam, motion and sound detector, DVR, home alarm, video surveillance, anti-theft, GPS tracks locator, sms interceptor).
Here are some examples of SpyVisio applications:
Baby monitor
When the baby wakes up and begins to move or cry, SpyVisio can:
- Play a song, ring tone, a lullaby or any pre-recorded vocal message with your own voice
- Call another phone
- Send a text message
- Send an email
In addition, at any time you can call SpyVisio and listen to what is happening or access it through internet and see the images taken by its camera. All events are stored in the device memory and may be consulted at any time (even remotely).
Home security system
Place one or more SpyVisio devices in the environment being controlled. In case of suspicious noises or movements you will be notified on your control phone and you could take countermeasures. SpyVisio can also sound an alarm and operate as a DVR. The images taken by its camera can be viewed in real time remotely through a standard internet browser.
Car protection
Someone likes to scratch or harm your car? Just put SpyVisio suitably hidden in the passenger compartment and it will record all suspicious movements taking place around.
Phone theft
If someone steals your device, then you can use some special SpyVisio functions to track down the thief:
- In case of SIM replacement an SMS will be sent to your control phone with information about the new SIM card and the new phone number
- By issuing SMS commands to SpyVisio you can get information on demand about the ingoing/outgoing calls & messages or the GPS locations of the last 24 hours and try to get emails with pictures of those who are using the phone.
Anti-curious phone
With phone in Stealth mode, its screen turns off but all alarm functions are still active; if someone approaches your phone it can sound an alarm, take photographs of him and prevent access to other applications, ensuring maximum privacy. SpyVisio prevents anyone from using your phone without your knowledge and so you can leave it around without too many worries.
Secret investigator
Do you want to know where someone dear to you has spent the day? SpyVisio can store the tracks of the movements made in the last 24 hours and you can read them individually, or view the entire path with Google Maps or Google Earth. Every message sent or received from SpyVisio phone can also be repeated automatically to another phone (control phone). Do you want to know if in your absence something strange happens in your house? Just put SpyVisio in the room you want to check and it will record everything that is moving or making noise.
All feedback is welcome, so please let me know what you think of the app! Since the app is released for free on Play store you can, if you want, try it and post about it wherever you like!
Might want to put a link to the Play Store, just a recommendation.

Yes, that is a good recommendation.
Unfortunately xdadevelopers prevents those who have less than 10 posts on the forum to include links
However just search SpyVisio on Google, the download link will come out as the first result.

Dur, didn't even think about the x<10 post limit, my bad Yeah, I found it through the Play Store, thanks for the tip!
With the new release SpyVisio 1.2 you can now generate a GPS NMEA-0183 log and import it in Google Earth. In practice you can do all the GPS Cookie (Kickstarter project) does but without having to buy the cookie
New release SpyVisio 1.3
Some minor bugs have been removed and a new data storage management provides compatibility with KitKat.

This sounds like a nice app. I wish I could use this with my tablet, but google play says only my phone can use it. It's a Dell Venue 8 with GPS, but wifi only model. Any chance you can make it available to tablets with gps? The baby monitoring sounds great. Thanks for the request!
Can this work on galaxy tab 3 7.0 running 4.1.2? Google play won't let me download.
Thanks,

What's in Town is a new app that I have been working on for a little while now.
The apps aim is to provide a quick and easy to use interface to find out much more about your local area/town, as well as provide a great tourist information app.
Build from the ground up around material design practices I feel the app really does provide a clean and easy to use interface far better than other apps like it.
Currently the first stable release of the app has now been pushed to play store while we build up our database of locations, we are starting with historic locations as very few apps seem to have any details on local historic items. But we will be expanding into hotels, bars, shops and other locations of importance.
We are also focusing on Great Britten but hope to expand into other country's as well!
I have come to XDA with the app to general raise awareness but also get peoples ideas about the app and what they think might work well, or any features improvements or bugs etc!
Thanks

App updated to 1.2
The newest update to the What’s in Town app has just hit the Android play store, grab it HERE now!
This is quite a large update and includes some great new features below:
Filter by distance/town
Whats in Town version 1.2 now allows you to easily filter locations displayed in more ways than ever. In past versions you where able to filter by location type by clicking on each of the location types in the side menu to toggle them.
However with the latest update you are now also able to filter by distance (in miles) from your current location. Perfect for if you are looking for a day out near by, or need to limit the distance you can travel to a location
You can also filter by town, this allows you to only display the locations in a certain town, great if your planning a trip to another town and want to know whats about in that town only.
Search
Another great feature now allows you to search through our database for the locations your interested in, once you have found the location you want simply click it and the map shall show you its location and info.
