Hi guys,
I just made my first Android app and I'll really appreciate it if you gentleman can give it a whirl and provide feedback, here or on the Play Store.
The app uses your GPS to clock your acceleration and top speed.
How does it work?
Switch on GPS
Open app,
Wait for GPS to lock, and stand completely still
Then, do a drag race to record your best:
0-60km/h time
0-100km/h time
Quarter mile time
Top speed
Stand still again to reset the clock. Repeat as many times as you'd like - the app will automatically only save your best times.
I would really appreciate if you can install my app, test it and rate it (in app, play store, or here).
My two main concerns now are:
How accurately the GPS works on different devices. I myself have tested on Samsung Galaxy S4 upwards, and LG2 upwards. The LG's couldn't get an accurate enough GPS lock. Please use the Rate page in the app to rate your GPS accuracy - I get then get your rating plus the device model you used.
The legality of the app, and the likelihood of being sued if there is an accident. I do have an in-app disclaimer that the user needs to accept before using the app.
iOS version coming soon, and I know the UI still needs lots of work.

Hi All:
Try CheckinReminder at google play.
checkin-reminder.net/
Inspired by some friends' complaint about always forgetting to check in, we came up with this neat app to remind foursquare users to check in at any place they visit. To serve this need, we design a smart algorithm to detect when the user stays in a place using smartphone sensors. Our algorithm can intelligently turn on/off GPS and other sensors to maximize user's battery life. We believe many Foursquare users will benefit from our app, especially those who are fighting for mayorships. To refine our algorithm and make our app better serve users' need, we collect some anonymized location information for research use.
How to use:
1. Link CheckinReminder with your Foursquare account. It will run in the background afterwards.
2. If you stayed at a place, and when you are leaving, a notification will pop up. Click the notification to check in the recommended place immediately, or click the 'Search Around' button if you prefer a different place.
3. You can choose the type of alarm in the app.
Hello, can you please provide a link to the app? Even if you say its on google play its always good to provide a link, specially for new apps since they dont always show up when searched for.
Thanks.
Link provided thank you
Thank you for reminding, as I'm a new user here, I would not be albe to add external link in my post.

Hi Guys,
I use Runkeeper to track my joggings which is also connected to S Health app.
What is happening is when I go to S Health I can view that a new activity from Runkeeper has been added but the calculations are incorrect, mainly the Average speed.
For example today I run 5,46kms in 32m15s and its marking the Average Speed of 11,1kms/h which is wrong.
Average speed is way less than that.
So either the SHealth as some sort or calculation error or is scrambling the imported data.

I have reported the error via Samsung app but the reply looks like a copy/paste one, e.g., log off account, clear app cache, etc etc bla bla bla that doesn't solve the situation.
Any suggestions to solve this?
I was planning to buy the Samsung Gear s3 watch for daily driver but mainly to enjoy S Health at full extent, but since the app is
incoherent I'm holding horses....
Thanks
Got GPS enabled while you're running?
I don't think the health app is very accurate with anything tbh, I log my meals, protein, carbs etc, when I enter what I've eaten and drank, it'll say something like 300g protein, when I click on details to see what gave me that protein it'll have numbers that don't add up to 300g
Same with distance walked, I know how far I've walked but the app doesn't get it right a lot of the time
I use it for estimates / guidelines rather than accuracy
Off course m8 ??
I have GPS and data + Bluetooth as I also use the bluetooth headset to hear radio while I'm on activity.
But the SHealth is importing the data from Runkeeper which is accurate therefore this makes no sense...
Hi,
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I want to share some website & Android app I made.
Last year I thought about how it would be fun to just speak to my laptop/phone and get animations in return.
When I looked for such a website, I couldn't find it, so I made it myself:
voiceflick.com
I also made it into an Android app:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voiceflick.voiceflick
My nephews and nieces love it , I hope other people will also enjoy my website & app.
I made it just for fun, it has no ads, or anything else that will bring me profit.
The website only works on Google chrome, because it uses Chrome's built in speech recognition.
This was the first time I ever made an Android app, so there might be some bugs
If something doesn't work, please let me know, and I will look into fixing it
All feedback is welcome.
I hope you will have fun with it

More info about the app:
To save battery, VoiceFlick only records while you hold the mic-button.
All returned animations are appropriate for all ages.
The animations are rated G: General Audiences – all ages admitted.
VoiceFlick uses Google App for speech recognition.
So if something doesn't work, please check if Google App is installed and working:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
The voice records are not send to VoiceFlick, it is processed by Google App, (Google App can be configured to use offline speech recognition).
