[App] Minimal notepad with Dropbox sync - need testers

Hi!
I've just published my first app on the market - it's called Epistle.
It's a very simple text editor that can sync your notes with Dropbox; I will add folder support and note search soon.
Since all I've got is an old HTC G2 I'd appreciate if someone could help me test it (especially the synchronization mechanism).
You can find the app here: kooklab.com
Thanks.

Looks nice. Love the interface. However I am getting an FC whenever i hit "Sync". Account linked, I turned off all the automatic syncs, have reinstalled. I don't see any activity in my dropbox. Have attached logcat.
The only thing I would change is the note title field. I appreciate how other notepads use a bit of the first note line as the title.
You need to make a donate version, btw. I have been jonesing for a PlainText-alike and would happily pay for one!

There is a stupid bug that prevents the app to perform the very first synchronization.
I'll push an update soon.

I think I can manage to do that, somehow.
Thanks!

Hi! I like your app, but there is one thing I don't like. You should be able to give an option name to the folder it creates in dropbox. I'd rather have a folder named "Notes" than "Epistle", no offense to your namechoice.

This app is awesome!
I've now a Todo-list on my desktop and phone, synced!

Good work. I really like the idea.
Some comments:
1. I agree regarding the aforementioned opinion on the titling of notes. If no personal title is entered, the note should display the first line of the note in the overview list.
2. When you create a new note, the title is highlited and can be entered. However, as soon as the orientation of the phone changes (e.g. to landscape) the cursor is in the beginning of the text field and the title of the note cannot be changed. The same goes for the use of a hardware keyboard. When I flip my Desire Z open to use the hardware keyboard the same thing happens.
3. Deleting notes: The app should refresh by taking the latest changes into account. If I remove the note on the phone it should disappear from Dropbox. If I delete a file from dropbox, it should delete the note in the app.
4. Discarding notes. It should be possible to get back to the list view without saving a note. It's a good idea to have the note saved automatically when you press back. But you might provide a "discard note" option when you press "menu" while editing a note.

I'll add the option to change the sync folder in some future release.

In landscape you should still be able to hide the virtual keyboard (with the back button) and double tap on the title to edit it.

If you delete a file from the phone everything works as expected; the other way around at the moment cannot be implemented - with the current API there is no way to tell if a file has been deleted from dropbox.

This is also coming in the future.

The new release fixed the sync right up. Thanks!
I am getting ready to import ~500 notes from simplenote. We'll see how it goes.

You're right. I tried that earlier and somehow it didn't work. I'd still prefer the cursor not to jump out of the title if I switch the orientation or open the hardware keyboard.

For me it's not working either way round. I "removed" 2 notes in the App and in my Dropbox they still appear. When I start the App they however don't show up anymore. I tried hitting "Sync", which resulted in a FC. However I just tried it again - created a new note, synced it and removed it again. This time it somehow worked.

I'll soon push another update on the market that should resolve most of the sync problems.

Would sorting by modification time or search be possible? The UI is perfection, but with many, many notes i get confused while navigating
Please ignore gregory's comment on the market. Unix line endings ftw.

Hey, i downloaded this yesterday! I'll provide any help needed!
By the way, love the latin root for the name.

It looks really pretty. The only reason I'm not going to give it a try is that Simplenote sync is currently a requirement for me.
But your attention to aesthetics pleases me

Thanks, thanks a lot for this app. Working great on my HERO, and finally I can sync my notes between my phone and my Linux desktop!
I don't mind the folder name or even the reverse sync issue, but I've got a few ideas on improving this. For example, you should stick to a notes format (like TiddyWiki) and give us ability to remark (bold) text, create check-able lists of items inside a note.... with transparent formatting (for example, *text* should bold, []item1 []item2 should create a check-able list, !subtitle for that exactly that and so on...). I think it should not be very difficult to implement and it could lead to, perhaps, a web app complement.
This app has tons of potential uses and improves. Thanks again.

Ever since I got my Samsung Captivate I've been using its built in memo pad for months. The fact that I couldn't export my notes was kind of a bummer. Now with your simple app, taking notes has never been simpler.
I'll try to report bugs when I see them. Thanks.

Been looking for something like this for ages, thank you.

Yesterday it worked fine, but today I'm getting FCs every time I open it on my Hero.

I'm about to test this in the Nook Color.. Thought the title "Drop-Notes" might be best appropriate for its key function :- )

All the minimal features are AWESOME thus far!
I've been using AK Notepad for the past few months.
I DON'T LIKE that it requires their webapp at catch.com to sync.
I REALLY LIKE that yours is very simple.
The only feature that I liked in AK Notepad, that I would like for you to implement would be #hashtags. This would make categorizing notes much simpler on both ends of the sync.
Along with the hashtags, a simple filtering system would be great!
And perhaps a customizable widget, that displays ONLY a set hashtag?!
Great job!
I'll be the first to donate/buy when you choose that route.

I can't link my dropbox account. the link button does nothing for me. It lets me enter my email and password, but thats it.
I'm using a Cliq XT running android 1.5

[App] Forget Me Not v1.0 - A ToDo List Manager

Hello All,
This is the first app published by Cuibono Studios (my brand name) and so far I have 38 downloads and 64% active installs. Forget Me Not is a ToDo list manager for Android 1.6 and up.
For more info please check it up on the Android Market: search for "Forget Me Not" and its the app with a red and black pencil icon. (Can't post the link here because I'm a new poster to this forum)..
Guys if you can, please download it and post a review and/or rate it (and also please discuss your thoughts on this thread). It would really help me out as this is my first app...
Thanks in advance,
Roshnal (President/Developer of Cuibono Studios)

Hi Roshnal,
I just published my first app here and I was able to get tons of feedback from the members of this forum, and since this is your first app, I would also like to return the favour that others gave to me.
Okay, enough pleasantries.
I downloaded and installed your app
I really like the clean interface, but I did have a couple of bugs.
When I first opened the app, a dialog opened stating that I don't have any lists and if I would like to create one. I then created a new list and the prompt came up again even though I already created a new list.
After adding items to the list, I clicked on them to mark the as read, (the read items were really difficult fr me to see though, almost the same colour as the background)
I tried then marking them as unread by long clicking...all except the last reverted to an unread state. I tried a couple of times, but it was still "grayed" out.
I hope this helps a bit and keep at it.
Since I have more posts than you I can post links (its below so others can go directly to it)

How many tasks did you have on that list? I also found out that if the list scrolls, some of the tasks are grayed out even if they are marked as "unread" in the database. And if you go back from the list (to the lists page) and click the list again, did it work?
I have no idea why this is; But I will see to this also.
Look forward to the first update coming soon!
Thanks again,
Roshnal

But before that can you please test it and let me know if there are any features you would like? And any bugs or complaints?

I only had like 4 items on the list, so there was no scrolling. When I exited the app and re-entered it was still greyed out. I retried by long clicking on item again, but the still thing happened.

Strange... I didn't see that...
But thanks for informing me. I will release an update soon.

New Update For Forget Me Not
A new update for Forget Me Not have been released today! Please check it out and give me reviews or suggestions if you can..
Thanks for @spawn782 for testing and telling me about the bugs. These are fixed now, so give it a go again!

This app is quite useful for me, hoping for new changes in the future! Thanks alot!

Now this is something I have been waiting for a long time. It's simple to use and gets your stuff done. I will let you know if I ever come across any bugs.
Thanks for this Roshnal.

To save people trying to find it the here's the android market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.cuibono.forgetmenot
Just about to try it now.

Hi,
Suggest moving the task creation buttons (create next, done) to the top of the screen to save the user from having to hide keyboard.
Add to the long press functionality of the list view the option to add a new task.
On the task list, add a long press or (and?) menu option to edit the task. Likewise to rename a list.
Good luck with your first application.

Feedback
Hi Roshnal, I have installed the app this morning and so far, so good!
I will try to look at it in detail to give you some proper feedback, for now I have one suggestion- when you open a list you can't see the name of whichever list you have open- you can probably work it out but it would be nice if you could see it somewhere on the page- perhaps where it currently says "Forget Me Not" you could include/replace it with the list name? Just a thought!
Thanks for the work so far, this looks to be really promising!
GileZ

Nice app ... installed and using . very good and clean .

Feedback
Just tried on my Samsung Galaxy S2 and have the following feedback:
1- Adding a task does not increment the task counters but just stays at (0/0)
2- Selecting "Mark as Incomplete" does not change colour of task but just stays dimmed.
That's all for now from your neighboring country of Maldives

By the way, I have a custom ROM "Touch X Treme", which I thought might make a difference.

Thanks For The Feedback
@vnreview , @osaeed , @GileZ , @cereal.killer
Thank you all very much for the feedback. That was a real help for me and gave a reason to go on (as this is my first app).
@k1000716 Thanks for putting up the direct link. It will be easier for other viewers.

[APP][4.0+] Obstructer: Protect your privacy when you let others use your phone

Everyone knows that feeling when someone asks to use your phone but you're afraid to let them because they can go through everything on it. This is a serious privacy issue within Android; there is no easy way to lend others your phone without them being able to go through it. That's why I created Obstructer, an app for Android that blocks access to your device's content when you let others use your phone. It works by disabling the home button, the recent app screen and the notification bar. This makes everything on your phone inaccessible until you enter a password that opens when the call is ended.
So tell me what you think, the link is below.

There is no link...

this is a good idea. My suggestion is to make it free and add a new feature people are going to want and since already using your app, the chances are greater they buy the extra feature.

[APP]SnapPea, probably the best Android PC manager*Updated 10/23*

2014/10/23 official beta version is now on www.snappea.com/windows :good:
We've fixed most bugs you guys mentioned in the comments (thanks for that!), and we're gathering feature requests now, please feel free to request!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi guys,
I'm from SnapPea, an Android PC manager. We first made SnapPea back in 2012, it was not a huge success. But we've made tremendous changes and improvements now. The new SnapPea is still under development, but we'd love to hear feedback from geeky (and sometimes mean) Android users here at XDA. And we are willing to give away a $50 amazon gift card for the one who finds out the most bugs - this is not a reward for contest, this is a truly Thank You for helping us.
Ok, cut the crap. Let me show you some numbers! We've compared SnapPea with another PC manager - MoboGenie which seems to be very popular recently, and as you know, we outperformed it, of course
Package size
The package size for SnapPea is only 4.5MB
The package size for Mobogenie is 30.4MB
Installation time
It takes only 2.94s to install SnapPea on your PC (here is a video to prove)
It takes 6.87s to install Mobogenie
Photo loading time (tested on a phone with 2000+ photos)
SnapPea takes 1.25s to load pictures
Mobogenie takes 8.16s
×a word here: we have made improvement to the logic of content loading, which means the photos won't be necessarily loading from the top to the bottom, instead, we load where your eyes are at first
Contacts loading time (tested on a phone with 3000+ contacts)
SnapPea takes 1.48s to load pictures
Mobogenie takes 57.75s
Memory usage
SnapPea uses only 70MB when in use and 24.7MB when not
Mobogenie uses up to 146MB when in use and 70MB when not
As windows users, you must know how it sucks when some software takes too much memory...
Enough for the numbers (sorry, can't help, too proud), if you do not know what a PC manager is. Here what it does:
Manage your contacts - import, export, edit, grouping etc
Text messages - send sms on PC
Manage your apps - install apks, will add export later
Manage your photos - import, export, delete, set as wallpaper etc
SD card manager - we have beautiful SD card manager interface!!!
Music&Video - import and export
Anyway, we understand that it is far from PERFECT, but we are willing to make it PERFECT. So if you're willing to help or simply criticize, you have all our ears. Bugs, wrong spellings, feature requests, anything is welcome! And we will answer EVERY question here and take EVERY suggestion seriously.
2014/10/23 official beta version is now on www.snappea.com/windows !

I made this crappy little video... (please forgive my desktop) to show you that how SnapPea outperformed Mobogenie in installing and content loading Enjoy!
Thanks, sincerely.

Dear Snappea Dev,
I've been using snappea since the start of 2013 and I've always been (almost 100%) satisfied. I'do sure want to test your betá version, but I am not great at finding bugs. Anyways, I wanted to say thank you for this application and I wish you and your team goodluck and happiness. I will subscribe to this thread to keep myself updated...
Well, enough said. Time to install now... :victory:
Have a great day!
Kind regards,

Hi Sam, I'm sorry I forgot to mention that if you've already installed SnapPea on your PC, you will have to uninstall it first then install the beta version sorry about that!

Thanks SnapPea dev. I'm a big fan of your software. It's really cool.
I'm a Android developer. I'd love to use SnapPea to get the phone screenshots , and to install the apk file to the phone. Of course I can use adb to do the same thing, but SnapPea is really beautiful and fast, I dont want to use the DOS console anymore LOL.
Sorry I'm not good at find bugs. May I ask for a new feature that can uninstall the system apk on my rooted phone?

Hi Cowboy, of course you can. And I've added this to our feature request lists, will make sure to take it into consideration :fingers-crossed:

Dear SnapPea dev,
I think I found a bug. I have changed my luanguage in the settings sections, but it still gives me (chinese?) characters...
And the music section does not display my music very well, and it won't stream any music
Anyways.. It has a nice and clean UI, I really like that. Photo's sync very well and fast!
Have a nice day.

For some reason I cannot install APK-files using SnapPea... Could that be because I am on KitKat?

Hi
I should say i love this app and using it as my primary program for my work.. I used your app for about 1 year and still using it without any issue.
I just installed and used the beta version but just noticed that it has less functionality than the version 2.7 and also there is some bugs i found.
First one is the big one.. It cant even install apk files. Second one is, it cant show the device screen to capture screenshots like previous version.
there's so much it doesn't have compared to the latest stable version.
My main reason for this post is that i have a request for your team to make a new feature to the this very cool program.
My request is a simple drag n drop to install apk's and import photo & music & videos. it will save me SO MUCH time and makes using the app so much easy and enjoyable. also boosts the jobs i do with this program.
Thank you and wish you guys all the best

Hi Sam, thanks for testing out the new SnapPea! I'm gonna mark these down as 3 bugs you found:good::good:
So,
Language appears in Chinese
Noted! We have uploaded these strings for translation, will be ready very soon
Music section doesn't display well, can't stream
1) I will need a screenshot of the display issue, you mean the format or layout or something else?
2) Does SnapPea fail to stream any song or just a few? Because we use Windows Media Player, if the music format is not supported by WMP, SnapPea can't stream it either...
Can't install apk
Can you be more specific? Did the install fail? What was the error message? A screenshot will help too:victory:
Thanks thanks thanks you are awesome

Hi DanteMayCryM, thanks :good: I'll mark 2 bugs and 1 feature request down for you
Can't install apk files
Seems like you have the same issue as Sam. Hmm.. there actually can be various reasons for this, such as if the file transfer was successful, or if SnapPea has the permission to install apks. You can try use the SD card manager to see if you can import of export files using SD card manager (which supports drag-and drop!!!)?
Doesn't show device screen
Actually I just used to SnapPea to take a screenshot, so I'm sure what went wrong here.. Did you make sure that your phone screen is on? Otherwise SnapPea will show only a black screen. It would be great if you can provide me more information here
Drag-and-drop
We actually received this feature request a lot of times, we didn't have the time and manpower to do it for the PIM tools (photos, videos &music), but drag-and-drop now works in SD card manager. The new SD card manager is so much better than the last one Anyway, we will try to add this feature very soon, ok?
Don't forget to get me the screenshots!

Hi Sam, thanks for testing out the new SnapPea! I'm gonna mark these down as 3 bugs you found:good::good:
So,
Language appears in Chinese
Noted! We have uploaded these strings for translation, will be ready very soon
Music section doesn't display well, can't stream
1) I will need a screenshot of the display issue, you mean the format or layout or something else?
2) Does SnapPea fail to stream any song or just a few? Because we use Windows Media Player, if the music format is not supported by WMP, SnapPea can't stream it either...
Can't install apk
Can you be more specific? Did the install fail? What was the error message? A screenshot will help too:victory:
Thanks thanks thanks you are awesome

The player won't load [all] tags, says the song is only 00:00 long etc (look at screen#1)
Also, it gets stuck at loading the songs. Even the correct loaded ones.
Snappea loads the APK, sets to install and immediatly says it couldnt install, and after a second or 2 is force closes (screen#2)
Hope I could help!
Screenshots below
Screen#1
Screen#2

I'm willing to give a this a go on my home pc to manage my android devices. I have a few questions tho.
Is it possible to backup messages? And import afterwards? Same for contacts? And apps? Sorry I haven't installed yet, if these features (or some) aren't implemented, are you guys considering it ?
And then, I'd like to help (besides bug finding) with translations. Do you need translations? I can do for Portuguese (PT-Pt).
Let me know
Thanks guys, great app, I wish you all the best of luck! Mobogenie for me is a bit of adaware/spyware thing, many times it downloads itself from a few websites, IMO, this is a shi*ty behaviour. So I hardly consider it a decent manager :b

Hi Sam, thanks for the screenshots!
1) Can you send me one of those songs? (don't worry, I won't judge your music taste:angel we need to look into the file
2) It's probably that there's space in the file path name, but we've fixed it! Let the latest version I just uploaded to the top post Let me know if it works :good:

Hi MidnightDevil (cool name!),
Yes yes yes we can backup messages! To be more specifically, our back&restore feature is still under development, but you can use SnapPea to export/import contacts and messages, can't do apps at the moment, but it is definitely a must-do!
We actually do provide Portuguese version You can change the language in the settings! But we used a translation company to do that, I'm sure they're not all correct, if you can spot some mis-spellings or wrong translations, do let me know! :highfive:

[APP] [BETA] Phone Usage Monitor

Hello,
I want present my new app. that is in beta stage but fully functional: Phone usage monitor.
With this app you will be able to know when and how much you use your device and the apps that you have in it.
Please, report issues, if any, and suggest more events to monitorize.
Thanks
Play Store Description
Are you obsessed with your phone?
Up to what point?
Do you want to be aware of which apps are the most used?
Do you want to know what WiFi networks you connect to and at what time?
When are your applications updated?
Do you want to know if your phone suffers a expontaneous reboot or when you turn on or off the screen?
You need this app and you know it!

Looking good! An option to exclude certain apps like Nova Launcher would be nice.

Thanks for the suggestion. Great idea!

It would also be nice to be able to monitor a remote phone (opening up the app to for parental monitoring for example).
This could be achieved by either allowing to :
- send a daily report by mail
- having a client app with data synced whenever a connection is avaialable
- sending data to a central server
...

anyway to export the data as .csv ?

Hello, thanks for app!
Any chance to remove "full network access" from permissions in future ?

Heya! Congrats on making the portal. Good stuff you got there.
Here's some suggestions for the intro texts:
Part 1 - Current
"Do you want to know how do you use your smartphone?
You have installed this app, so the answer will surely be affirmative.
With this app you can know with what apps you lose your time; time which you could lose living your real life..."
Part 1 - Suggested
"Would you like to know how you use your smartphone?
Well, as you've already installed this app, that'll be an affirmative!
By gathering statistics about your apps with Phone Usage Monitor, you'll know where your precious time is creeping off to. Time you might want to spend on living your real life..."
Part 1 - Motivation
The second "do" doesn't really have a function in the first sentence and I made it a bit softer to make a more friendly first impression. I mentioned the app's name to remind the user what's going to help them (branding, be proud of your creation). I stayed true to your intention, the reference to 'real life', but made that a bit softer as well by using "might" and not mentioning a negative word like "lose". We're all winners here!
Part 2 - Current
"To let us know this information we will run a service in the background to monitor the use you make of your smartphone.
Quiet!, it will not consume more than a little bit of the precious battery of your mobile..."
Part 2 - Suggested
"You're probably wondering how much battery this app will consume. Don't worry, just a tiny bit.
Think about the time you will save after gaining all this usage intel. You won't even need as much battery anymore."
Part 2 - Motivation
Shouting "Quiet!" doesn't come across very friendly. There's also never a comma after an exclamation mark. I wrote the text to match the battery icon better. I'm also pushing the major goal of the app forward.
Part 3 - Current
"We will give you more information if you let us see how do you use the apps in your device..."
Part 3 - Suggested
"Sorry to bother you but I will need some usage access in order to provide you with all these awesome statistics. Is that okay with you?"
Part 3 - Motivation
"let us see" gives the impression multiple people or a company will be watching along, which totally isn't the case. I wrote it a bit more personal, fun and friendly.
Part 4 - Current
"Do not worry!
The data we collect is NOT sent anywhere."
Part 4 - Suggested
"Do not worry!
The data I collect is NOT sent anywhere."
Part 4 - Motivation
As in part 3, It's better to speak from a first person point of view, "I" instead of "we". It's just the app and the user, "you and me", which is a more comforting thought.
Instead of "START APP" I'd use something more vivid like "Lets go!" or "Show me some numbers!" or "Start saving time!"
The UDPA looks good, people are used to not reading these disclaimers and accepting them anyway. It's also a nice reminder that even if there is a "we", it's literally stating no personal data will be collected on any server. Kudos! :highfive:
I personally don't like the last paragraph but ah well, one has to make a living, right?
Looking forward to those stats...

I need to think on it.
I would not like it to be used without consent to spy on anyone :/

Sorry, but Internet permission is needed to display Ads.
I understand that you do not believe in my word when I say that I am not sending data anywhere, but I need to access the Internet to load the Ads

Please add export data functionality! Csv format for example. Great app otherwise, thanks!

Crashing
Hi,. Unfortunately the app crashes every time I open it on my OnePlus 6 that runs Android 9. The first time run screens work fine and permissions are assigned ok but then I can't open the app. I have tried clearing the storage/cache and that hasn't helped. Any ideas what to try next please?

Hi
Assuming you're rooted, please, post a logcat or send by email.
Thanks

OK, I will try it by my self

Hello
I've tried but no luck reproducing the issue.
If possible, enter app settings then enable debug mode then reproduce the issue then sent the log file.
If not possible, please, contact by email or PM to receive a debug version of the app to track the issue.
Thanks in advance
