Hi, my first post so let me know if I break any rules etc I was told by long-term members of this community that posting here would be a great opportunity to gain insights and feedback on applications.
We are researchers from University of Oulu and collaborate world-wide with other researchers in Human Computer Interaction. We have developed an application to intelligently hide unimportant notifications called Notification Diary.
The application relies on user-labeled training data and verification of predictions and uses machine learning and semantic analysis to analyse your notifications. We collect anonymised data from the application for research purposes - namely to understand how users interact with their notifications, how they perceive notifications' importance and finally how accurately we can create intelligent methods to prevent user from being needlessly distracted by incoming notifications.
The application is available in PlayStore : Notification Diary by Aku Visuri
We already have some core users contribution to our studies but would appreciate any extra contributions and feedback on the application. The application uses some permissions (e.g. location using hashed geofences, accessibility service to log foreground applications) to understand the situations where notifications are received and if these impact whether certain content is found important or unimportant, and e.g. calls permission to detect incoming calls. The application also requires access to notifications to read incoming notifications and manage (cancel) existing notifications. The application can read notification contents, and this information is stored only locally on your device and never uploaded. The application uses the AWARE framework to log and sync data.
So if you think this aspect of smartphone use is interesting and helpful to users, and would like to both help us as researchers or simply see how our application could be of use to you personally, please feel free to download it, use it, and reply here or PM me if you have any questions regarding the application.
We also have some questions for anyone interested in this project, and again would of course appreciate any time spent using the application.
Do you use any notification management tools? If yes, which, and how efficient do you believe them to be? And if yes, are there any downsides to the methods you are using?
tl;dr: We created an application called Notification Diary to intelligently hide unimportant notifications and would like to receive feedback on the application.

I am looking for a freelance developer to write an Instant voice messaging and media application for Android and/or iPhone. I have already written the Windows Phone 7 version of the application and am looking to add cross platform support.
The general goal of the application is to allow for voice, picture and videos to be sent in a store-and-forward manner. Gelocation sharing may be added at a later date. You must have programming skills in recording sound, and video as well as playing sound, video and displaying pictures. Network programming is a must (sending and receiving XML formatted requests and responses).
The backend services are already fully functional and support storage, retrieval, identity verification (via SMS and Email), push notifications and more. Additional services can be created based on individual platoform needs.
If an agreement can be made, you will be provided with API documentation and application requirements. I am willing to negotiate either a flat rate or you can publish and maintain the application and app store revenue yourself.
If you are interested in this opportunity, please send me a PM or send an email to daler-at-ntworld.com.
Hello Guys,
I have developed one awesome app for rooted users in terms of privacy. I would like to share my this product with you guys so you can take advantage of this app, Also you can give me your best suggestions and feedback. You can checkout my app on Google Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.corefragment.secret
Secret WhatsApp allows users to encrypt their original WhatsApp's notifications. Sometimes we require privacy about some personal contacts. Guys, till now we have just used some locking and blocking apps for the purpose of privacy. But what about that condition when you are giving your cell to someone else and your gf or bf says "I love you darling!!!" on WhatsApp ? Uff!! You have already locked your WhatsApp by other apps but someone else can read your message easily by pulling down notification bar
So if you want to restrict someone else to read your private messages even from notification bar, you are on the perfect page . We would like to help you on this mode. Secret WhatsApp will be perfect choice to encrypt your WhatsApp's notifications. And hope you will love this privacy mode
Features we would like to server on Secret WhatsApp:
- Encrypt your original WhatsApp's notifications from notification bar.
- Lock your Secret WhatsApp by passcode.
- Use widget to on/off our service directly from home screen.
Note : We have already tested with most of the customized OS. But still we require your support to improve our service.By your feedback ,we can improve strong privacy mode for you. So if you feel uncomfortable with any of the customized OS, We’re always excited to hear from you! If you have any feedback, questions, or concerns, kindly email me.
Waiting for your feedback guys.
The Internet was designed to be a free network. “Don’t be evil” is the formal corporate motto of Google.However a subjective good from Internet institutions can't guarantee Internet freedom.What the true freedom? The true freedom is assuming all the participators are evil, get rid of all the participators capacity for evil through architectural design.
Apps often used to deliver sensitive data or used for personal and corporate communications, so the data stored by the service provider should be encrypted end-to-end, There are many App messaging applications like Line, WeChat, KakaoTalk, and many more, but they are not end-to-end encrypted messengers. Time is loudly announcing the need to shift to some alternates who provide end-to-end encryption for communication between two devices and respect your Privacy. There are a number of solutions available includes for privacy like, Telegram offers end-to-end encryption and have a 'Secret Chat' feature, that self-destruct messages after the conversation, Sure spot allows you to send and receive text messages, pictures and audio clip with end-to-end encryption, Threema use end-to-end encryption and gives you all features like text messaging, image sharing, and voice chat as well, Text Secure and Red Phone also provides end-to-end encryption for messaging and voice calls respectively. Red Phone allows you to upgrade a normal call to secure call whenever it senses the possibility to fulfill the requirements.
Therefore we have developed a complete decentralized, third-party End to End encrypted communication APP.
What is “a complete decentralized” concept?
IMAP/SMTP are standard communication protocol for retrieving and sending emails from mail server, our APP users communicate via the protocols, as if they are sending emails.
What is “third-party End to End encrypted communication”？
Since we are using zero-server solution, the developer themselves can't read the communication information from users at all. We encrypt the E-mail communication. The advantage of third-party encryption is no one can read APP user's communication information without permission, include APP official, operator, E-mail service provider and so on.
Why “APP”？
We used smart phone longer than sitting in front of a PC. We hope to develop a 100% free of charge future-proof secure communication app that is convenient and suit for long-hour usage.
After completing the APP, as long as there is user, nobody include us can prohibit this product from being used. As in nobody can prohibit the use of email protocol. Furthermore there will be no server deployed to manage this APP. It enables free flow of APP in conformity with the spirit of free Internet environment.
freedom is only an illusion. Your never free, I'll never be free, no living thing can ever be truly free, as every action is determined (or can be seen as determined a posteriori) by various factots. So, as the Internet is constructed by humans, logically it won't be free as well.
Stop talking about freedom and give us a secure App
this is not meant negatively.
Regards
Needs to be idiot proof, lightweight and versatile. Good luck.

Without further ado:
Gentlemen’s Assistant – Smart SMS, Calls and Email – Free Upgrade Promo Codes for the Top 50 People!
Gentlemen’s Assistant is a smart device automation tool for SMS messages, calls and email that’ll help you stay in touch with loved ones—and it’ll be there for you through life’s many distractions.
Let’s face it—girls (and some guys!) love lots of attention and most men can’t keep up. Rather than forgetting to give your better half the attention they deserve—perhaps you’re in a conference call or very busy with work—Gentlemen’s Assistant (GA) will, cleverly, send text messages of your choosing to, and smartly prompt you to call and email, your significant other to remind them that they mean a lot to you.
Some people are, very much, against automation technology like this, but we believe that anything that can help keep communication high between loved ones is, in the long run, a good thing. GA, by default, will not take any action and largely act as a helpful reminder, and we recommend this type of use.
Warning: GA works well when used sparingly with simple messages—perhaps too well. While it’ll give your significant other the attention they need, they’ll be inclined to reply back and, at this time, GA is not intelligent enough to reply in context—so you’ll need to reply back yourself.

Enhanced Artificial Intelligence and machine learning
Helpful Hints
GA can be used to regularly touch base with anyone you care about, not just loved ones!
Use short and sweet, but generalized, messages. Sending a simple “I love you” once a day is far better than sending “You looked amazing in that black dress!”
More varied messages tend to work best.
Disable messages when you and your significant other are together—or select Not Today when notified. While you can schedule messages outside of times you’re likely to be together, you don’t want messages to be sent when you are, for example, sitting right next to them at breakfast.
Don’t wait for GA’s automation! If you are feeling extra loving, let your loved one know in the moment!
Known issues
RCS support is incomplete. RCS messages will not be displayed properly in notifications and messages will be sent as SMS.
Email reminders are still a work-in-progress and we plan to have this completed soon.

I am annoyed with Facebook Messenger because I can't see the full conversation in my watch. So, I decided to create an application that retrieves notifications and displays them. However, I am a beginner and it's a bit overwhelming for me. I created the application, but I don't know why the notifications are not displaying. What do you think about this? Maybe someone can support me in this project. I think many users would benefit from this application.
