Yeah, it has a banner in the left hand corner of the screen and also we're testing interstital video ads.
The game is free itself so we decided to put some ads to earn some money. We've been also thinking about releasing paid version without ads or a paid option in the free version to turn off the ads.
Which one is better? What do you think?

I think a paid version without ads is great. Also, please remove the internet permission for that version (and if possible, a paid app without any permission is ideal! )

thanks for your thoughts! We'll try to have a closer look at the opportunityto make a paid version without ads.
Although, not sure I got your point about 'remove internet permission for that version'. Could you please clarify. In fact the app works without internet access on your device.

In the Permission section of Google Play, it shows that the current app has two permission regards to internet:
view network connections
full network access
Please remove those for the paid version of the app (for privacy issues)

Oh, I see now! For the current version these permissions are needed to show you the advertisemements. If we decide on making a paid version of the app without ads, there'll be no such permissions for sure

Thanks for the app !

[APP][6.0+] Free Lot.io | The 100% free lottery

In the past I have downloaded a few different apps from the Play store that let you do scratchers to gain coins, where you watch an AD to play. Enough free coins got you enough for a free gift card. Problem is every one of these apps is a scam, and if you read the recent reviews you can see just that. People get their accounts locked before they can cash out.
So I developed Free Lot.io, the 100% free lottery with PayPal winner verification's at the end of each month. When in the app you watch a short video ad to claim your free ticket. Right now the cap is 7 times per day with potential to increase up to 10 times per day. In the app you can also see the total amount for the month so far, this will increase faster as more people start using the app (The more that play, the more we pay). At the end of the month we have a script that will randomly selects a winner. The winner can win a total of up to $10,000 if the jackpot pool is that high, if the Jackpot pool is over $10,000 then a second winner will be selected up to $10,000. For example if the total loto pool is at $23,000 there would be 3 winners, the first receiving $10,000 the second getting $10,000 and the third getting $3,000. It's that simple, no data logging, no excessive personal information, and no permissions required/requested. You must be 18 years or older to use this app, and create an account. I am very excited to be sharing this with the community. And we're excited we did our first payout the other day! All winner verifications are located on our Instagram located here Instagram

How legal is it to run such applications in Google Play?

We confine within all of Google Play's terms and conditions. Since this is a sweepstakes app (No money involved from the user), we don't have to worry about the gambling aspect of it. Google has reviewed the application and approved it's spot on Google Play.

Really interesting idea. App seems to work fine.
I'm aware this is a beta but to polish it you could change the toasts to snackbars and add progress bars/spinners for when you register/login as well as perhaps add some haptic feedback.

Hi,
I am more interested in how the app will record the transactions as currently most of the financial apps have either Bank Sync or Manual entry and its one of the MAIN differentiate.
It looks like yours is Manual entry one, is that correct? If that is the case are you looking into the option of getting transaction details from SMS/Financial apps notifications, so that the app can populate the amount and other fields into app with user interactions?
I am currently using (PRO member) the app Bluecoins Finance app which can records transactions by reading the notifications from selected sms/app and populates most of the entries. By using this method the app dev is able to cut the cost of sync services and provide users with one-time app purchase instead of subscription service. I strongly recommend to have a look at the app.
I am willing to test your app and provide the feedback. Please PM the code instead of requesting email address, as the email Ids on open forum can be misused.
Thanks for your efforts and sharing.

Yes, our app requires recording expenses manually. But you can predefine items in home widget so that you can add expenses without opening app.

Really like how the screens were done in the Play Store. Was that done by a designer or through use of a screenshot tool generator?

Our app need to pick a default currency. But we have a currency convertor in the calculator. Is this going to help?

Hi. Thanks for your reply.
The currency converter in the app helps to keep everything neatly organized in one currency. That is true. But in some use cases it might be better to have an option to like "Do not convert" as some transaction might be made in a diff currency on a regular basis. N converting back and forth isn't ideal. But that is my 2 cents.
Just as a side note, from what I can see in the app. (Not currently using pro. If you're able to, send me a code in pm haha thanks)
Dark mode is a pro feature. Is it possible to make like a "greyish" colour free as there r many app and users who are able to utilize this. I might sound needy, but even without full dark mode, the grey version could help out when detailing your budget in a dim / dark area.
These are all just my opinions from using the app for a few hrs atm. Will update more ??

Sorry, I forgot and just sent you the code. And thanks for your suggestions. Multiple currency tracking seems to be a nice idea for improvement. I think the reason we set dark mode for pro is because our design team want more user to use the normal color mode for better UI experience. But you are right. We should consider another color combination for dim / dark area use
