[APP][4.0.3+] Dog Advisor: a simple and funny reminder tool - Android Apps and Games

Hello!
Our Yalos development team is currently working on a small but very useful App called „Dog Advisor“
You can find it here: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.advisor.advisor.advisor
Current version: 1.1.4
Supported Android versions: 4.0.3 or higher
Supported languages: English, Russian
Category: Entertainment
App type: shareware
It's a combination of a useful reminder tool that helps you to control such important events like missed phone calls or unnoticed sms-messages with a funny Dog buddy that lives in your smartphone and entertains you like a kind of digital pet. Most of the time the Dog remains invisible but as soon as one of the events happens, it appears on the screen and reminds you about the missed event with a funny cartoon style animation. Besides that the dog can entertain the user by different animated scenes on the smartphone screen like sleeping, eating, reading a newspaper or doing sport exercises. All together it creates the impression of a friend that moved into your smartphone.
The App has many settings that allow to define all notification and entertainment functions according to the requirements of each single user. If necessary, you can disable the sound effects and the dog will remind about the events with a closed mouth. You can also set up a “quiet time” - a time interval when the Dog works only in a silent mode. This is especially important for the night time or weekends. If you don't want to see the dog on the screen, you can simply wipe it away with your finger. If you press the dog, it will show you the screen referring to the current notification type (calls list, messages, calendar or alarm clock menu)
Currently supported events are:
missed phone calls
unread sms-messages
calendar events
built-in alarm clock
We are constantly working on new features and would like to hear some new impressions about our app. In future we plan to develop the Advisor into a big assistant app that will help with many different functions, we also want to create new characters to chose from. Sadly it's impossible to work on all appearing ideas at the same time so maybe you will also share your thoughts on the features that you feel are extremely missing now?
The app is shareware but the 14-days trial version has no functional limitations and works exactly like the full version which can be purchased after the trial period.
We are looking forward to your comments, ideas or maybe critical remarks about our app! Thanks!

[APP][2.1+][v1.0.0]EpDetect - epileptic seizures detector

EpDetect is an free accelerometer based mobile phone application that uses advanced signal processing to detect epileptic seizures. It runs on most mobile phones that support SMS messaging, movement detection and GPS position location.
EpDetect will monitor the movement of the person while the phone is in their pocket or worn on a belt. The software will differentiate the movements associated with epilepsy from normal movement.
When a seizure is detected it will warn the person that it is about to send an SMS message to a carer, in the case of a false alarm the person will be able to cancel the SMS alert. The SMS message contains time, GPS coordinates (if the phone has GPS) and a short message, allowing the carer to raise the alarm and take remedial action or call an ambulance. When the person recovers they press a button to cancel the alarm, which will initiate an end of emergency SMS message.
Available at Android Market & soc.io mall Market.
You can also visit official EpDetect site.
That's a really nice idea. Well done!
Because of problem with the patent, we have to change the manner of distribution (hopefully temporarily). See updated links in first post.

What a great app! its wonderful to see all the development using the digitizer cant wait for more!
While I applaud the create of a pen-centric planner app, and I think that there is a lot of potential behind this idea, I feel that there is still some room to grow before this weekly planner is mature to the point that I would adopt it for regular use.
Some of the features that make a paper planner book most useful as an organizational tool are the sense of perspective it gives about the upcoming days and weeks, and the ability to add future events quickly and easily so that they are not forgotten. The inclusion of a monthly calendar as a reference is another nice feature common to daily planners.
What I would like to see from Sunny WP is a more natural method of navigation between weeks and months. Rather than Next Week, Previous Week, and Go To Date, I think that an "outer" or "higher" visualization of a calendar would go along way to making this feel more like a planner and less like a portable whiteboard with lines on it. Flipping through actual paper pages is still the method to beat when it comes to any kind of book navigation, so an easy way to visualize all my past and future weekly plans is critical. A bonus feature would be integration with Google Calendar, displaying events on the side of each day, but that is more of a personal preference.
I won't go into depth about the monetization mechanism, except to say that restricting use of the prominently displayed undo button to the (non-existent?) deluxe version feels like the developer is trying to annoy me into upgrading rather than promising me a richer experience when I buy the app.
One technical/user experience issue I have is that the eraser has a much bigger brush than I expected, and that makes it hard to erase small mistakes within a tightly packed block of writing, without wiping out everything around it (and there is no undo feature to recover the lost notes...).

NominalValue - Thank you for the insight. I hear ya.
- "outer" or "higher" visualization of a calendar: That's something I think I would warrant as a 2.0. I do agree technology like this should reduce the friction for frequent actions like adding new events. It's interesting you mention this because the general feedback has been that a daily planner is more useful than a weekly one. After the daily planner, I was looking to do a monthly one. Think of a giant monthly calendar that you could pinch/zoom out to achieve this reduction of friction. Do you think that would work?
- integration with Google Calendar, displaying events on the side of each day: I would like to introduce Google Calendar but after some discussion, people like to default to one source of information instead of a hybrid cause of sync issues. As an alternative to Google Calendar, I was thinking more along the lines of telling you the weather for the week you are viewing. High/low temperature. Who knows, I need to do more research how I could bring in outside content. Perhaps empower users what they would want to see.
- Monetization: If you are annoyed, that's the goal. Rather than deliver enhanced user experience, the goal for the deluxe version is that provides 'relief' from obstacles in place. But there are other features bundled in there that other users may value like different colors or be able to blast their list via email or facebook.
- Page flipping is coming soon, it'll likely be the odd 3-finger swipe cause it's hard to figure out the difference between a 1 finger swipe and 1 finger panning the page.
- Giant Monthly Calendar: I could see that being useful, along the lines of what I do with my little desk calendar. One suggestion I have for this would be to implement a double-tap-to-zoom that auto-aligned to the day you tap on, rather than only having a free-form pinch/zoom/pan navigation method.
- Outside Content: I really like the idea of daily weather info with high/low temperature numbers, and a basic sunny/cloudy/rainy/snowy icon would be nice, too.
- Monetization: I get that you want and deserve to make money from your app, and however you choose to do that is your decision alone. But if I may give my admittedly novice advice, I think that different wording for your version names could go a long way in shaping customer reactions to feature limitations. Calling one version Basic and the other Deluxe brings with it expectations that the one is suited for everyday common use and the other is for the true planning enthusiast. That doesn't, at least for me, seem to fit with the particular feature sets you have chosen for the two apps. From my time with the app, I would describe the Basic version more as a demo, in the way that the app "LectureNotes," for example, has a feature-limited demo. That way, I know to expect limitations and my mindset is that I am evaluating the app with the end goal of buying the full version in the back of my mind. That's just my two cents in the topic.
By the way, I couldn't find the Deluxe version in the app store. Is it not released yet?
I like it, but would like the following in a future update.
1-When zooming on a page and you start to type, the resulting writing is not as fine.
2-I can't seem to keep the page from moving when resting my palm on it even using the lock feature.
3-pen/stroke size options needed.

[APP][Free] Simple Reminders

Hi, this is a small app I made to remind myself to do things that don't have a set due date or deadline.
About the app
A simple app to keep you on top of things. Type in your reminder and click create, and the reminder will stay in your notification tray until you clear it. It's a simpler and more efficient way to manage things. There's no way to set a reminder for an event(Read: household tasks, school related things) that doesn't have a deadline, so the solution is to keep the event in your notifcation tray until you clear it. People glance at the notification area everytime they turn on the phone, so it's impossible to miss the reminder that Simple Reminders creates. This app is most useful for students but it can also be useful for adults.
Example
You have to buy milk the next time you go to the grocery store. No one makes plans to the grocery store, you just go when you have free time. Regular reminder apps can't remind you to get milk because they don't know when you're going to the store. Simple Reminders gets around this by keeping a notification in the tray that you'll notice when you're going to the store.
About the developer
I'm a 16 year old high school student learning java/android programming in my spare time.
Feel free to leave any feedback/tips/concerns.
I'm a huge fan of simple apps that take care of basic things such as this, bychance would this work on a Nexus 7 and are there any widgets for it as well? It would work great on my lockscreen
Just tried it, pretty good but please add the option to make the reminder sticky if need be as swiping them clears the notification away (obviously not good if you accidentally cleared the notification area)
Oh and please add the option of a black and white theme to the creation page
Many thanks
EDIT: Before I forget, there's a typo in the apps options page. Should be "created" not "creator" :good:

4 Best Apps That Are Made in India

This thread is specially for people from India and people who recognise the Indian Talent across the globe.
Let me ask you a question : Who doesn't like to see his community name or country's name flashing in news ? Isn't it a proud moment for all of us?
Take an example of Xiaomi news braodcasting over news channel. You are running late but the moment you hear the news, your feet freez on floor and spearding a wide curve on your face, you look at the TV and smile proudly
The same case is with every nation and their people, beat it's India or China.
Today we are going to explore some cool featured applications which are "Made in India".
Hike Messenger
With instant messaging becoming such a huge trend since of late, it was only natural that India would not be far off the bandwagon. Hike is a communication app that offers both SMS and instant messaging in one single app. Developed by Bharti Softbank, a 50-50 partnership between Japans Softbank telecom provider and Indias Bharti Telecom, the app is the brainchild of Kavin Bharti Mittal. This cross platform messenger app is pretty similar to WhatsApp, but also allows users to communicate through SMS when they do not have access to data on the go, or mobile internet.
Features that make Hike worth trying are:
Invite each of your friend via SMS for FREE
Users can create group to chat with their friends and family members, even along with those who are not in Hike via SMS
Share videos, photos and other attached files up to 6MB via Hike or SMS to anyone
Simple User Interface will make you fall in love with it
No username or PINs required and Hike is always connected
Even if phone is switched-off, Hike saves the offline messages automatically so that users can read them later
All messages on hike are encrypted over Wi-Fi
Application can be moved to SD card also
Share your locations with friends
Pros:
Fast
Simple UI
Sends message to non-hike users as well
Free of cost
Cons:
Smileys and emoticons seems old
Few glitches while uploading multiple files

Real-Cricket-14
Created by India-based Nautilus Mobile, Real Cricket 14 promises ‘the most captivating cricket experience on mobile’. This addictive cricket game offers users never-seen before game modes, real ball physics, unique art styles, and tons more. A true must-have app for all cricket fans.
Real Cricket 14 is not a short burst game of a few overs though it can be played like that if you prefer so. But, if you like playing long games with 20 or 50 overs then that too can be played on Real Cricket 14. When you play on mobile or tablet you are not exactly looking for a long stretched game. Your battery consumption takes a heavy toll with this game and if you don't have a charging socket handy, you definitely won't want to take on an innings in the game. The game developers thought about this problem well and have programmed the game to auto save your progress at the end of each over. This way you can spend whatever time you want to play and when can't continue any longer you can just close the app and continue later whenever you want to.
You can select the number of players you want in the game, the overs and the information you need. A thin bar at the bottom of the game also displays useful information during the game like your present run rate, number of overs finished as well as the the number of balls remaining in the over.
Real Cricket 14 is a Freemium game which means that it has advertisements and in app purchases. You can remove the ads by making a one time payment of Rs.50. For the same amount you can unlock more features of this game like T20 World Cup, Knockout Trophy, Master Teams or Super Over.
Pros:
Intutive
Smooth control
multiple leage options
Cons:
Multiplayer Game mode

Shifu
Shifu is a popular Indian-made productivity and task management app that observes how a users uses their phone and reminds them about all the tasks that need to be done. The app has been developed by Deepansh Jain, Michael Massey and Prashant Jain. Instead of you having to set specified time for your specified tasks, Shifu alerts you when you might have the free time to complete a particular task. It has wi-fi based, phone call based, and location based alerts integrated into it. So far, Shifu has 50k downloads on the app store.
One of the big upsides of using an Android phone is the sheer scope of customisation that is available to users. Rooting your phone and choosing a completely different version of the operating system isn't hard, but otherwise there is a whole laundry list of apps that can change everything from the way your phone looks to the way it works.
Shifu, by Delhi-based The Signals, is one such app, which lets you outsource the job of remembering what's important and when to do it. The app keeps running in the background and tracks how you're using your phone. It also requires access to your phone's calendar. So it knows, for example, that at 9AM every day, you're traveling from home to office, and it knows that you're going to take half an hour to get there.
Shifu is a personal assistant app, which helps you record reminders with respect to time, place and some activities.
The Homepage
Here are some use cases for the app –
General time based reminders – Remind me to call mom/dad/girlfriend at 7:00 pm every day.
Location based reminders – Say you’re visiting a cafe for the first time and you really like it, you can set a reminder to remind you of this place the next time you’re in it’s vicinity.
Activity based – Currently, you can set reminders based on networks you’re connected to (WiFi, 3G etc) or when you’re on a call with someone.
In the process, Shifu does something obnoxious as well – it displays these reminders on your phones home screen. I hate that, but it is definitely one the most effective way of reminding me.
Another reminder app?
I might be a little biased against reminder apps; I still don’t think a disorganized person will become organized because of a reminder app. It is a mindset problem of not caring for the more mundane but necessary tasks of life. These tasks pile up and your life becomes a mess (trust me, I know).
The homescreen reminder display
However, a nag, who holds you accountable has been the closest to getting me responsible and organized. I get the same feeling with Shifu. For things that I haven’t attended to, it makes sure that I know about it with it’s homescreen reminder. It’s ugly, but at least it gets me back into the app to get rid of the reminder notification. Sometimes, I even do the tasks that it reminds me to do.
Pros:
The biggest pro with Shifu is that it has realized what it takes disorganized guys like me to take it seriously. Apart from this, it is feature rich and some of the activity based reminder options are pretty cool and I hope more activities are integrated with Shifu. For example, reminder on using an app excessively (game/social media etc) would be a neat feature.
Cons:
The app is data and sensor intensive and there is a visible drop in battery performance that I’ve experienced since I installed the app. However, this is something that the app developers might want to be wary of. Furthermore, if there was a prettier way of displaying notifications on the homescreen, it would be greatly appreciated.
