Hi @johnyf, I'm using 1.4.3 version of the app and have some problems.
First, as I can see, when apps are blocked (there is no running process), they still show up in recent window? Is this normal? if it's not, how can I get rid of it?
Second, there are some apps (xda, twitter and onefootball in my case), they're not blocked when first time launch. After minimize and open again, they're blocked as normal.
Thirdly, for some apps, the blocked announcement window show up "twice" for some apps instead of "once" normally.
I'm using android 7.1 and enabled both notification access and accessibility in settings so I really don't know what is happening here.
Hope you could help!
Thanks.

We welcome all review and comments from you via email or Google Play. Many thanks from development team.
While I've never really been a freak for privacy and permissions, I do question why there's a children's app that has access to my child's GPS coordinates and my account data:
Your accounts
add or remove accounts
Your location
precise location (GPS and network-based)
Network communication
full network access
view network connections
Storage
modify or delete the contents of your USB storage
System tools
test access to protected storage
That particular set of permissions makes me feel like someone's going to drop in, scoop up the kid, then with the account access email, tweet, or facebook me a ransom note
The update version is going to the market next week. This updates will get more images from our server, so your baby will have many more to color . Let's look forward to this launch!
Privacy and permissions fixed

[APP][3.0+] Twalk | Keep up on Twitter, hands free

Twalk
Keep up on Twitter, hands free
Hello everyone - first time I've posted one of my apps here. I created Twalk because I simply couldn't keep up on all of the people I follow on Twitter (@g0blinResearch). There are a few apps out there that claim to do what Twalk does, but are either paid, do not do the job very well, or requested write access to your Twitter account.
Twalk is, and always will be not only free, but ad free. No "pro" features, no micro transactions to unlock the apps full potential. Twalk will only ever request read access to your Twitter account via OAuth. The resulting access keys are only ever used by the Android app, and are not communicated to anywhere else.
If you have any feedback - no matter how harsh, or critical - PLEASE share it. I know the app could do with improving, both visually and functionally, but so far for me it works as I wanted it to, and as such I wanted to share it with the public.
Thanks!
James H
Twalk is aimed at people who do not have the time to check Twitter constantly through the day for new Tweets, and at people who have trouble reading their Twitter feed, due to visual impairment.
Your home feed will be monitored, and read out as and when Tweets arrive using Androids Text to Speech (TTS) engine.
Network access is required to request authorization via OAuth to your Twitter account, and to check your home timeline every 80 seconds for new activity. Permission to monitor for boot completion is required to allow Twalk to start upon boot of your device.
Twalk was developed to do one thing, and one thing well. Development of Twalk is on-going - feel free to submit suggestions to us for features via reviews, or email.

We also offer other personal safety app features such as medical ID & a panic button.

Hi everyone. I came up with the idea for this app after getting annoyed with my own chronic illness (t1 diabetes). I entered & won a start-up competition with the idea and built the app soon after. It's my first released app and I was new to android dev when I started it so it's very much been a learning process. I'd love to see what you all think or if you have any suggestions!
Promo codes for a 30 day free trial are available at request!

RedBox - System Analyzer is the perfect application to access all device information and keep track of components usage and thermal data. This application allows you to control your phone data in a very simple way.
RedBox - System Analyzer has three main functions:
SYSTEM INFORMATION: you can see all technical information about your device, Android system and all the components like RAM, CPU and battery.
SYSTEM MONITOR: you can get all data about temperature and usage of device's components in a chart and monitor the data for 24 hours.
ALERTS MANAGER: you can create some alarms to notify you when your device is too hot or is working too much.
You can download this application from Google Play Store: "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.redbox.redboxsystemanalyzer"
The most important thing, Link you mentioned in the info doesn't work as a link to redirect to the play store, it's simply a text.
Congrats for your new project. Wish you a successful future of the app.
My view about the app:
For me, The foremost thing to try a new app is the UI or the unique functionality.
Functionality is good but I totally don't like the UI. It kinda gives me the feel of KITKAT era rather than the Modern design era or Pie version. I have seen most popular app with simple UI rather than colourful UI.
This UI also gives me the feel of millions of useless apps floating on playstore whose main priority is to earn in whatever condition and is loaded with tons of ads rather than the feature. (Sorry for the harsh word)
So in my view UI is as important as the functionality.
So please update the UI, colorfull icons are okay but colors spread everywhere doesn't give me good feel.

About the link I didn't make enough posts to have the possibility to put direct link. However, I take note of your criticisms about the app.
i, on the other hand, like the UI.. the colour distinction shows information in a clear and concise manner.. information are presented in a simple format, which is good for such kind of app.. no fancy stuff, just simple and precise information..
its a good app imho..
