Hi all,
We are developing free application for Android 2.1 (or more) named Progress Succes.
Short description:
This application can help you be successful! Add task and every day mark it as done or not. And a few days you can see the results! Simple and easy motivation tool for Time Management which can help to you achieve your goals.
For those who do not know about motivation tool in Time Management.
Consider you have a goal - learn Spanish. So you choose reading a book in Spanish as a method of learning, but you don't do it every day. Once you haven't enough time, once you lack enery after a long day. So you need something that stimulates you to archive your goal. You need something to visualize your process.
The simpliest resolution is a table which has tasks in its first column and dates in its first line. In a particular cell you put a mark showing did you execute your task or not. So you can track your progress.
How does it work?
You create an activity named "To read 3 pages" in the application. Every day you put a mark about executing this activity. You can put nothing if nothing should be done for the activity. So you report yourself about the work done. In statistic you see how your progress goes.
Current features are:
Add/Edit/Remove/Suspend task;
Change marker state on each day for each task. Three State are available (Done, Fail, Non);
Statistic is available for selected tasks;
Support multilanguage interface;
Help is available;
Nearest future plans:
Notification for some seelcted tasks.
For each task you can choose priority
Select a period for statistic.

Thanks, I've been looking for something like this for a while.
Currently I don't have an Android device so I cannot test this - sorry. Looking at the screenshots and features, it's pretty basic. As someone who has used this method for achieving goals, you need different types of tasks other than "done/not done". For example:
- How many pushups did I do today? (every day you put the number, and potentially define a set goal for each day. For example you set 50 as the goal and if you get to 50 the number is in green, if you did any pushups it's in black and if you did none you get an X)
- Did I floss both in the morning and before bed? (same task but two places to tick in the same day. Or n number of places to tick)
- I don't want to spend too much money on cigarettes/don't want to spend more than 2 hours on the computer (and you input the number of hours/money spent. For example, set 2 hours as the max amount of hours and if you put a higher number, you get a negative result for that day. Otherwise you get a positive)
None of these tasks are, of course, related to my real life )
There are probably more unique use cases I've found, I have to think about it.
Also the UI itself could be prettier IMO.
Good luck.
Neat! I'll try this one out immediately

Thanks for your recommendation! It's really important for us.
About more state of marks: The main idea of application - don't spend a lot of time for using it on day. Only one minute per day! If you done 49 pushups instead of 50 then - FAILE. You goal is not achieved
But if you really want to be able to do push-ups 50 times then create task - 20 push-ups. When the result is successful, then create new (or change the previous) task 30 push-ups etc... )) Divide your task

New version 1.2 is available
Hi all!
A new version of Progress Success is available now.
The design was changed, some small bugs were fixed.
Be successful!
What graphing library are you using? The third screenshot looks purrrty.
I'm the developer of "Best Wishes". It is an application that will pull down your list of friends from Facebook along with their birthdays. It neatly organizes the birthdays into an intelligent list. Once your friends are loaded you can configure Best Wishes to post notifications when birthdays occur. You can put a widget on your desktop to see upcoming birthdays too.
The real reason I developed the app was to automate birthday wishes. I don't visit Facebook very often, so I wanted a way to automate birthday wishes. The automation is very customizable. You can configure a time range for it to post. The app will randomly pick a time within the range. It comes with 10 "canned" birthday wishes. You can edit these "canned" wishes or add your own. You can select the ones you want and it will pick from them randomly. You can specify custom wishes for your close friends. Plus it is easy to exclude or include which friends you want to send automated messages.
Of course, not all friends put their birthday info on Facebook and some have their permissions set so that 3rd party apps can't access the birthday information. For these cases I've added manual entry so you can use Best Wishes for all your friends.
Check it out and let me know what you guys think. I'm open to feedback and feature suggestions. The full version costs $0.99. The Lite version is free.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.unchained.bestwishes
MOD EDIT: FREE VERSION CAN BE FOUND HERE
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.unchained.bestwisheslite
The main difference between the lite and full version is the level of customization that you can perform. The full version allows you to enter custom birthday wishes, include/exclude friends, and it has ten pre-defined birthday wishes that are editable. The lite version only has one birthday wish ("Happy Birthday!"). The rest of the functionality is the same.
Thanks!
Against the rules to have paid apps up without a free version or trial. Better fix that before you get reported.

I didn't realize that was a rule. I'll put up a free version to go with this when I get home tonight.

Cool, just looking out for you.

I added the free version. Let me know what you think.
Cool application, I purchased it from the marketplace. Works well on my phone, but craps out hard on my tablet. Just a heads up. I sent the crash report in, if it's any use.
Best of luck!
Great app! So much more useful than Facebook for birthdays. Love all of the customization in the paid version!
I love the idea, but have a question. Often when I use an app to post to facebook, there is a little tag line that says it was posted via a particular program. Is this going to do something like "Happy Birthday, Phil" "automatically posted by Best Wishes"? I love the idea of automatic posts, but don't like the idea of them knowing that it was some automatic process and not personal.
I have a couple of quick suggestions. First, can you ad an option to search and/or sort the list of people by date so that you don't have to scroll through hundreds of names to find the right person? Second, I see canned messages containing the person's first name. Can you add an option to replace the person's Facebook name with something else? Third, how about including their age, if known, in a greeting?
For example, I have a friend "Worker Bee" and I'd love the canned message to say "Happy 50th Birthday, Brian!" and I'd like to be able to find him in the list by searching on "Brian" *or* "Worker Bee" and see the list sorted by first name, last name, or birth date. Make sense?
Yes, it will say "post by Best Wishes" at the bottom of your post. I didn't like that either when I first realized that. Facebook does that for accountability reasons. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to know if you posted it or some third party application posted it. There isn't any way to remove that message.
I don't see it as a problem though. I made sure that Best Wishes has the capability to just remind you and then make it easy to post from within Best Wishes. If you click on the person it will take you directly to their profile page. If you have the Facebook app installed it will take you to their page in the Facebook app. If you don't have it installed it will take you to their page via the browser. From their you can post your birthday wish.
The privacy constraints can be a pain, but I guess they are there because enough people requested them.
djeaton, thanks for the feedback.
First, can you ad an option to search and/or sort the list of people by date so that you don't have to scroll through hundreds of names to find the right person?

You can search and it is sorted by date. The date sorting expands the current month by each day you birthdays. Then there is one group per month. You can quickly collapse the groups to jump around the list.
Can you add an option to replace the person's Facebook name with something else?

I didn't think this would be useful as a canned phrase because it would be too specific. I had envisioned that most people would just create a custom birthday wish. I will keep this in mind though. It is definitely a possibility for a future version.
Third, how about including their age, if known, in a greeting? For example, I have a friend "Worker Bee" and I'd love the canned message to say "Happy 50th Birthday, Brian!"

I like this idea. I'll probably add it.

You can search now. Just click the search icon in the top right. If you type Brian it will show any friend with Brian anywhere in their name. The list is sorted by last name then first name.
The most friends I have seen are around 1200. The average person seems to have around 300. Extensive sort order can be added. I decided it was overkill for this first version. I'll keep in mind for a future revision.
Thanks again for all the feedback!
That's good. Just didn't want it to look like a robo-post with no personal touch. Speaking of touching the person and going to their page, could you add the option to long-press on them and be taken to their configuration page where you can enter custom greetings or select a canned one?
Yeah, I'll add that in the next release. It will be quick to add the long press options. Thanks for the feedback djeaton.
I'm constantly forgetting to wish my friends a happy birthday so this app is a brilliant for me!
What makes this app any different then this FREE app that looks like it does everything your PAID app does???

The applications are very similar, however my application edges it out in several ways.
Best Wishes:
- Allows you to pick a time range which is used to pick a random time each day to post your birthday message. This randomness is useful to make the automation more natural.
- Uses intelligent grouping to make the list of birthdays easier to read.
- Has more pre-defined birthday messages.
- Looks better (in my opinion) because it includes your friends profile picture.
Let me just say, this is from quick inspection. I have not done extensive testing of this other application.
I guess it just depends on what you like. The Lite version of Best Wishes is also free and it has most of the features above.
Hope that helps. I appreciate the feedback!
Thanks!!!! .. Seems really nice application....

Thanks for answering my question. I'll give your app a run and share the link to the market with my friends as well........help spread the word..hahaha
much needed i too dont visit FB much and miss out on wishing bday wishes...thanks...
First off very nice app, good idea and nice clean interface.
Now one problem I have and tours that a lot of my friends don't have their birthday in the app but their facebook does, any reason you know of why this would be happening? I don't feel like going through and adding their birthday manually.
A feature request would be to be able to set a custom birthday message as a generic message and not just one for a specific contact, I like ascii art lol just too make it a but different when I post happy birthday
P.s. I have the paid version
Hey guys! I know there are lots of tools out there for creating apps. Im looking to create an information-type app. you might call it an encyclopedia app, or an indexing app. because of its extreme simplicity, i feel like its within my means to develop, even though i have very limited actual development skills.
because of all of the tools out there, which would you suggest is best for someone looking to create an app like i mentioned?
despite its 'simple' complexity, its entirely possible for me to pour hundreds of hours into organizing and providing information into the app. its also possible that some day, i may want to work on the app in another more sophisticated program, if my development skills ever improve, or i want to collaborate with someone more knowledgeable.
all this said, here is a very basic idea of how the app would work
List
Item 1
A
Red
Blue
Green
Purple
B
C
Item 2
Item 3
then clicking Red, Green, Blue, or Purple will show you a description.
anywho, so thats a really basic example of what im looking to do. what type of program do you suggest would be best/easiest to do something like this in?
*using windows

Hello !
To change the world around you, to make it a better place—everybody dreams about that. This is why a new Shamworld app is now available on Google Play to let you create your version of the augmented reality at particular locations in just few taps! Now not pokemons decide where to appear but you make your ideas real in an augmented world.
Screenshots:

How to work with this app
If you feel that this lovely courtyard nearby really lacks the magic of tenants and some sculptures that you chanced to be passing will really look good with a little twist, then now you can do it right on the spot via your smartphone with the installed Shamworld app. A little left to do—to open the app and wait until your location has been found on the map using Google Maps data. A cute green ant will mark your location. All you need to do is to choose an object you would like to see here and to superimpose it into the camera image. When saving your version of the reality for a particular place, you may also share it with all or some of your friends. They will see your work in the Recommended section and will be able to check it out via the app. Various objects can be selected. There are plenty of ready images and even animated GIFs available in this app! You may choose your image in Gallery or add your own photos, emojis and texts.

The opportunities for real creators are unlimited! Also, to understand how the app works, you can watch this video

Shamworld. Changing the reality
To make sure that the object has been tagged to a specific place, you need to choose an object that does not change its place, shape or color over time. That being said, it is unlikely that you can tag something to a backpack forgotten on a bench or to a cute cat sitting nearby. But it can be done easily with the bench itself. However, the tag might be lost if the bench gets changed or repainted one day but this happens not so often.
Shamworld and the world around you
When walking around the Shamworld map you must have already spotted yellow circles with numbers in it here and there. It indicates the number of objects placed by other app users. You may enjoy their arts and get some inspiration for new objects. There are several practical ways to use the Shamworld app. For example, when you go out of some cafe, you may leave your feedback right on its wall—without getting charged with vandalism. The cafe owner himself may place a creative ad in the app to make sure that no one misses it... 4-inch screen or above, RAM—at least 512 kB, camera—3MP or above, and Android 4.2 or above are required for app users. The better phone you have, the better it will all work for you. You may install the app by clicking Google Play :
