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

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.
[TUT] Tasker | The Ultimate (over-informative & annoying) Alarm Clock V3|With Snooze!
I had a look at the alarm clock on the Tasker wiki and decided to update it with screen actions for snooze. When I was done, I felt that something was missing... so I added a couple of things, then a few more and then a few more….
First install
Download the .zip file below.
In menu options/profile data 'Import One Task':
AlarmAPOTD.tsk.xml
AlarmDayHoro.tsk.xml
AlarmInfo.tsk.xml
AlarmMQoTD.tsk.xml
AlarmNewsHeadlines.tsk.xml

AlarmUPSMaths.tsk.xml
VariableClear
AlarmHTTPCheck (added in V2)
In menu options/profile data 'Import One Profile':
AlarmClock
In a file explorer, navigate to /sdcard/Tasker and within this folder, create the following three folders:
APOTD
NPOTD
NGPOTD
In Tasker, click ‘Tasks’ and select AlarmReset. Click on ‘Test’ within the task to set up the initial variables.
Select the task Alarm. Edit action #11 and choose the alarm sound you wish.
Turn your screen lock off and adjust your screen-time-out to 5 minutes (just for testing).
Make sure you have an active wifi (or mobile data, but profile is data intensive) connection.
Click on the time in the profile AlarmClock and press now, add one minute to each time, click done, click apply… and off we go...
Hit 'snooze' when each speech action has finished.

Should this alarm fail, not wake you up, you lose your job, followed by your house and wife, please note that compensation claims will only be payable by cheque and may take up to 400 years to process <- You know what I’m sayin
Theory
Q) Do you honestly think I’m ever going to use this? You seriously need to get out more.
A) Well maybe? I do!
I did give some thought to what I’d like to wake up to every morning, but unfortunately Tasker can’t perform that… So, I decided to go a little OTT and make this alarm useful for plenty of Tasker Tips and Tricks.
I separated out all of the tasks so you can easily see what I’ve done. They are then available for you to use or amalgamate into other profiles you have or wish to create. How nice am I…? Let’s take a look at them:
Alarm
This task is first to kick off and controls the flow of what Tasker is going to do. It starts by performing the task AlarmSnoozeMaths (we’ll look at this below) and then encounters its first IF check on the created variable %ALARMCOUNT. Every time you snooze the alarm clock it increases %ALARMCOUNT by 1. When the count is greater than 10, the alarm will stop activating.
As the task continues, it encounters more IF statements for %ALARMCOUNT and performs the action if the IF is true. This way, I was able to create different alarms for different ‘snooze times’. There are four custom speaking alarms and after that, it just plays your selected alarm ringtone.
AlarmSnoozeMaths
This task calculates what the time will be (to display on the screen) when you snooze for 10 minutes. %TIME + 0.10 would have been just so easy wouldn’t it..? But unfortunately when the time is 07:52, telling you your alarm was going to go off at 07:62 was just too untidy. Following the task through, you’ll see how I’ve split the variable %TIME by the ‘.’ and therefore had two variables ‘07’ and ‘52’. From there I add 10 to ‘52’ getting ‘62’. I say that IF it’s greater than 60, minus 60 from it; leaving ‘2’. I then say IF that number is less than 10, join it to ‘:0’, so we end up with ‘:02’. Simples.
The ‘07’ was easier to deal with. IF the above minutes had gone over 60, we would need to add ‘1’ to this number. IF that number was greater than 23, we’d change it to ‘00’.
All the split variables were then joined together and ended up with a more intelligent %STIME.
AlarmSnooze
This is a simple menu task that will pop up on the screen. Pressing one of the two choices will perform the associated tasks. The text you wish to display is in the label field. One performs the task AlarmSnoozeTime which handles the ‘snooze’ and the other performs AlarmReset, which is run when the alarm is turned off. EDIT - Forgot to mention, that if neither button is pressed after 2 minutes, it defaults to 'snooze'.
AlarmSnoozeTime
This firstly ‘shuts-up’ the speech or stops the music. Cancels the notifications and then patiently waits for 10 minutes (or your chosen snooze length) before kicking off the initial Alarm task again.
AlarmReset
Again, this silences and kills notifications before resetting and clearing variables, the most important of which is %ALARMCOUNT to 1, ready for next time it’s to be used. It turns your keyguard back on and stops. EDIT - VariableClear is added to this task by default in V2
AlarmUPSMaths
There is an inbuilt variable %UPS which is the time in seconds since you booted the device (uptime). In the AlarmInfo task, this information is used (amongst many other things!), but having it quote thousands of seconds was just too ugly and really pretty uninformative unless you are a maths genius and even then, first thing in the morning? So, I wanted to change this into hours and minutes. Following the task, you’ll see it starts by dividing %UPS by 3600 to convert it to hours. The result for example of 3.5 does not of course mean 3 hours and 50 minutes; wouldn’t that be easy..? No, the 0.5 = half = 30 minutes. So, by splitting the variable %UPS (which we transferred the created variable %UPMA originally for good house keeping) at the ‘.’ we can deal with the numbers behind the decimal places and convert them to minutes. If it was so simple to be 0.5, then multiplying that number by 60 would give us 30; wouldn’t that be simple..? In the event that it’s actually 0.521331232132131 we need to do something about the getting rid of the 30.121200234423823 (eg) – we do this by again splitting the variable and keeping only what was before decimal point (the whole minutes). Finally we are left with two created variables %UPHR and %UPMIN which are used in the AlarmInfo task for all but a second and therefore was a complete waste of my life – But hey, someone, somewhere, someday will read this when trying to do the same and hit the thanks meter!
AlarmInfo
The first of the information pulling tasks we will run. It grabs the text from the chosen URL in action #1 using an HTTP GET and then starts to extract what it needs – which in this case, is today’s weather forecast. If you’d like to see what information it initially collects and then follow how it’s split, add a file weather.txt under the ‘output file’ field which will store it on your storage card. The task then goes on to speak the weather to you, along with just about everything else that I could find in the Tasker variables for it to tell you! Annoying? Yeah, but that girl’s voice seriously gives me the horn… You? No? Oh...
AlarmMQoTD
Yes, what better to wake up to than a motivational quote!? I’m starting to realise that this profile is really going to make a difference in some of your lives... Ok, so another HTTP GET, followed by a lot of splitting to leave us just the Author and quote itself. This is spoken to you again shortly after by my girlfriend, erm, I mean the speech engine you use...
AlarmDayHoro
How could you possibly consider starting the day without knowing exactly what is going to happen to you by hearing your horoscope!? I know I couldn’t... Again, an HTTP GET, a lot of splitting and that’s what you’re left with.
AlarmNewsHeadlines
This task reads out the recipe of the day for you! Or alternatively, the news headlines as the title would suggest. HTTP GET, splitting, more splitting and job done.
AlarmAPOTD
Alarms are so visual aren’t they? How about some soothing wallpaper from NASA’s astronomy picture of the day – you can admire it whilst you press snooze... Another HTTP GET, but this time we are searching for the image source only and once we’ve dissected it, another HTTP GET grabs the image and Tasker updates your wallpaper with it.
AlarmNPOTD
Same as above, but just NASA’s picture of the day. WHOOP!
AlarmNGPOTD
Same again, but this time National Geographic. %WHOOP2!
AlarmNakedHotGirlOfTheDay
You wish... but if the thanks meter increases sufficiently, I’ll consider it for the next release
VariableClear
The above tasks import a lot of text from the HTTP GET commands. Splitting them increases the amount yet further. This task is not currently instructed to run within any of the other tasks, so either run it manually (open it and press test) or add a ‘perform task’ action into AlarmReset, so it sweeps up for you.
Note: This task is HUGE. Currently (and unfortunately) you cannot join all of the split data together and clear it in one action. I’ve been reliably informed that it will be in the next Tasker update (although that comes a little too late for the 1.5hrs it took me to enter it all manually!) Have you hit the thanks meter yet? Do it again... EDIT - Added to the AlarmReset task as standard in V2
AlarmHTTPCheck (added in V2)
Should part of a triggering task fail, Tasker is currently set up to cease further actions. Having an alarm based on the reliability of your data connectivity is never a good plan, so I had to resolve how to confirm if the HTTPGET had failed and consequently, so had the alarm. There is a built in variable %HTTPR which is the response code, but unfortunately it's not so simple to 'variable check' this in the next action - if the HTTPGET failed, then it would not go to the next action... This needs to be changed within Tasker, but in the mean time the solution was to trigger a separate task.
AlarmHTTPCheck is triggered before the HTTPGET and runs with a lower priority than the calling task to ensure the HTTPGET action is not delayed. It waits 3 seconds, before checking %HTTPR is either a value of 200 or 400 denoting success. The task will cease if this is the case. If it isn't, it will increase the value of %ALARMCOUNT to 5 (+1 will be added in the task Alarm) so all further HTTPGET alarm calls are skipped and only the alarm music is triggered. The disadvantage of this is having less snoozes, but if you are not woken up to your expected informative speech tasks, I'm sure even your sleepy self will realise something is amiss. Sorted?

Customisation
Time – Changed by clicking the profile
Alarm Sound – Changed in the task Alarm, action #11
Star Sign – Change the text gem-in-eye to whatever you want the speech to try and say in action #9 of AlarmDayHoro. Change your star sign in the HTTP GET action #1 in the URL. You will also need to change the sign=# in the splitter as it turns out that each horoscope has a different number too. I'll put a list up of them all shortly, but in the mean time you'll have to look at the URL in a browser and spot your number please - Credit torsrex
Weather – go to this link and type your location in the search box. Click on it and note the code/extension of your local weather station in the URL. Change this in the HTTP GET serverort field – mine is 03534. If you live in the US, you need to add in different information after auto/ical – the blog post #4 here gives you an example
Female – Feel free to rewrite the speech entries so they are flattering to a girl. Or alternatively, call me... and I’ll talk dirty to you, robot-style.
Snooze interval – Change the wait time in AlarmSnoozeTime to the snooze interval you wish. Change the value in AlarmSnoozeMaths, action #3 to display the correct 'snoozing-to-time'.
Pop-up Notifications - You can add your own background by clicking 'tools' in AlarmSnooze.

Bug/Issue Report
Keyguard/Lockscreen - The keyguard action set off (#3) in the task Alarm has been left in. You’ll need to add Keyguard, set on to action #7 in AlarmReset. Please let me know how your device handles this and what lock you use. I’ll see if I can put something in as standard.
Slow device/internet connection – I’m not sure how your device will handle the multiple HPPT GET actions and if consequently, this will delay other actions such as the %STIME maths.
No/failed data connection – SOLVED in V2
Yahoo News Headlines - Appear to have started adding 'non text' to their headlines since testing... damn.

FAQ
Q) I like parts of this alarm, but not all of it. How do I change it just to suit me?
A) Instructions are written for you here
Q) I'm using your data sync profiles, can I combine these to start and stop the data connection before and after this task?
A) Absolutely, you can activate the data connection and then use any of the variables such as %WIFIOC or %WIFIORS to turn it off again, or leave it as it was. You could even make it that you only use this alarm when you are at home IF %WIFIHOME = 2 (reading %WIFIPREF).
Q) Why do you always transfer the %HTTPD data straight into another created variable?
A) Within the tasks, %HTTPD is populated with various different data. Transferring the data out of it as quick as possible prevents it being overwritten by a following HTTPGET task. We don't have to apply wait actions this way or confirm that one %HTTPD task has completed before another is allowed to start.
Q) I have many other Tasker questions, can I post them here??
A) To avoid clutter, probably best to use this official Google group
Q) Where can I learn more about Tasker?
A) The manual and Profiles and step-throughs on the Tasker wiki and you’ll be up to speed in no time.

random snooze?
would it be possible in Tasker to add a random snooze duration, say between 2 and 10 minutes?
That will keep you on your toes!

It would indeed! In answer to your question - yes! There is a variable randomize option which could be used in AlarmSnoozeMaths and then the same number in AlarmSnoozetime...
Tasker allows you to add variables so you could easily say %TIME + %RANDOMTIMEBETWEEN2AND10 = next alarm!
If it helps you get up in the morning, let us know and I'll put it in as standard!
I wish there was a stripped down version of this. I want the AlarmInfo task (which I can see has weather info and the usual text to say), but don't want horoscope, news or anything else (that wallpaper change thingy etc).
What do I do?

Should be quite easy - I'll post instructions for you later
EDIT - The instructions are here in post #11 for you.
I only want to use parts of this alarm, how do I strip??
The basics of the functions of the alarm are in the task Alarm. Opening it, you'll see that in action #3 it has a 'goto' request IF the %ALARMCOUNT (the amount of times it has already activated) is over 10.
Firsly, whatever changes you make, you'll need to make sure that 'goto' always points to the Variable Set %ALARMCOUNT to 1 (currently action #14), which is the reset function before the alarm switches off.
I set this up so all of the information grabbing tasks are separate. Therefore all you need to do is delete the actions that request them in the form of a 'perform task'.
You'll see in the task Alarm that action numbers 5,6,7,8 call for the following tasks to go off and get their information:
AlarmInfo
AlarmMQoTD
AlarmDayHoro
AlarmNewsHeadlines
You can delete the ones you don't wish to have from Alarm, but don't forget to check the 'goto' is still pointing to Variable Set %ALARMCOUNT to 1!
There are no further 'goto' actions to be concerned with in the above and below information tasks.
The first 3 tasks above, kick off the wallpaper tasks in their actions:
AlarmAPOTD (action #4 in AlarmInfo)
AlarmNGPOTD (action #12 in AlarmMQoTD)
AlarmNPOTD (action number #9 in AlarmDayHoro)
The action number varies due to the differing number of Variable Splits required when extracting the data from the HTTPGET.
You are free to delete the perform task actions should you no require the wallpaper changes.
You are free to edit the perform task actions to a different task (wallpaper) if you only want to use a particular one.
That's it! Easily changed to suit your own taste. Any questions, no matter how silly they feel, please do not hesitate to ask (Tasker makes us all feel a bit dumb at first! ).
Feedback?
There have been a few downloads of this, but no feedback?
Should I assume that everything is working absolutely fine?!?!? Hope so!
I have a question for you:
Are there any pre-made scripts to perform all these tasks you describe, or do we HAVE to manually input them ourselves?

The profile and tasks download is in post #3. Import them into Tasker and they are ready to go, everything is set up for you.
In post #1 you'll see that you need to do the basics such as creating folders on the SD card and choosing your alarm sound.
It's a 3 minute job before you can run this for the first time. The amount of changes after that is up to you!
EDIT - ps. There are hundreds of other ready to go Tasker profiles kicking around the net.
That's great. Thanks a ton! Just what I needed.
WOW, just found out that you had created yet another profile! (Too much tapatalk without signatures) . Gonna try this out tomorrow, will report back here with my experiences.

Haha, love the new "alarm clock" (more like high-tech alarm clock monster).
A few bugs to report:
When it tries to pull the weather I get an Unkonw Host message (although the link open's fine in the browser).
The horoscop won't pull itself (I get no error messages, but the "girl" tells me the variable %HOROD instead of my horoscope).
I have sat the snooze time for 2 minutes, but the popup shows 7:03 (which could not be right because my alarm goes off at 7:00).
The rest of the alarm-clock is working fine(love the picture changing thingy)!
Feature request:
Read the first ten topics of the email.

Doh! I thought it was working great...
Hmmm... Are you sure you've set the weather up correctly - under the 'mime type' are you pulling HTML instead? Does it work on the weather for my location? Add an output file of weather.txt and see if you get a file created.
For %HOROD, do the same and set an output file horo.txt. It may be that the splitters I've used don't match your star sign - again, did it work with the standard settings.
If the splitters are wrong and you need help changing them, paste the file contents in #code# tags and I'll take a look..
The alarm time must match the number in alarmsnoozemaths too - otherwise you'll end up with two different numbers... Where they the same?
I'm working on calendar entries and email - but Tasker only currently reads K9 email and the calendar entries are coded... need to decode them... Effort!
Keep an eye on your thanks meter
Message to self: don't create tasker-profiles at 00:30am in the morning!
Just readded the profiles, and now the clock is working great!
Just one bug that still persists, the horoscope thingy.
Here is the link to my star-sign: http://www.astrocentre.com/us/Feeds/RSS/getDaily.aspx?sign=Scorpio
I hope you can fix this
I am looking for someone with My Touch 4G with English USA Locale Settings to test my app.
You can download the app from the Android Market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=it.forbesluke.calendariovocaletrial
The problem is that saying: "meet John for lunch on WEDNESDAY" it translate the entry event calendar for TUESDAY all day.
This happens with any days of the week, it is translated with a day early entry.
We are an Italian Team that likes to develop app on Android,
any help and feedback is welcome.
Thanks
Xenio
UPDATE:
New testCalendar with some display of timezone and locale
Yeah. I told it "Meet John for lunch on Wednesday." and it set the date to Tuesday.
Thank you for your help I am working on the code to solve the problem.
I put here a little apk that have two buttons
one with the old code that should give the early day (tuesday)
and the other one with new code and should put the right day (wednesday)
I will appreciate any feedback
thanks,
Xenio.
Still gives me Tuesday. :\
Just tried your app from the market - first time, I said "lunch on thursday" and it made it for wednesday. Then I said "lunch on saturday at 2pm" and it picked the correct day...this is just from the app, not the zip you posted in this thread.
I like the app - not sure I like it enough to spend $1.50 on, considering its fairly limited functionality, but I do like it
UPDATE: After a couple more tests, I can confirm that when you say the TIME in addition to the date (i.e. '2pm on Thursday' instead of just 'Thursday') it will pick the correct day, but if you JUST say the day, it puts it a day early. Hope this helps.
Thank you all for the feedback, I think it is a timezone problem with the ALL Day flag passed to the calendar.
In the OP there is a new APK that "should" be the working one
could you please try it?
There are always two buttons and a display of the locale, GMT Offset and relative hour one for each button.
Thanks for helping me.
Xenio
No problem, I'm happy to help if I can. Like I said I like the app - simple but useful
I just tried the .apk you put in the OP and it worked. "Old" button was one day early, "New" button put it on the correct day.
Just a small comment - but I would be more compelled to pay for the app if it had some more functions, for example being able to set a reminder for the event with your voice, or add notes to the event with your voice. As it is now, you can fill in the name and date/time of the event with your voice, but you still have to manually enter any other info, as well as manually hit save.
Hope you don't mind me throwing that out there - I'm sure developing it is FAR harder than just saying it, so I understand if it can't be done, just a suggestion.
Wow thanks for your fast feedback,
after you press the new version button if you go back there are info for:
Locale, GMT Offset and relative hours
Can you please write what you get?
The project of Voice Calendar was started because in italian language there no similar app, in English there is much more apps; but we are working to improve it, the first idea was to have something fast to add to the calendar. All the feature that you ask are planned, unluckly Android fragmentation give us a lot of headache but we love Android

No problem, I always keep an eye on XDA. The info reads:
Locale = Eastern Standard Time
GMT offset = -5
Realtive hour = 12
Good to hear that you are continuing to develop the app. Although it is simple, the UI is very clean and nice
Hi everyone!
This is my first app in the market (after I created some apps but didn't uploaded them).
This app used to track the salary of people who work on shifts.
As a teenager I was working in many different places and the number of shifts that I was working every month wasn't constant, so as my salary.
When I wanted to track my salary I needed to track it in Excel tables, which is very annoying!
So I created this app for people that are just like me.
Very simple! You create a workplace -> fill the salary field in the settings -> whenever you arrive to work you press check in and when you leave you press check out.
And to make it even simpler it even has a widget!
And you can also backup/restore your data, that you won't lose it (And can easily flash new roms on your device ).
So go on and install the app,
And if you have suggestions, feedbacks, bug reports and anything else you can tell me here/pm me/send an email to [email protected].
And you can also like the app's Facebook page and share it with your friends!

a request, as i dont get paid for lunch hours, is there a way to incorporate that into the app? saves me having to alter the hours i worked

Looks like a great app, but I think it would look better if you just did the background a solid color rather than those stripes.
checking this out now

When you press check in, a toggle button that says "working" is revealed, when you press it, the text changes to "On break" and this time won't count on the final salary calculation. Enjoy!

Hey, I already tried but the app look very empty.. Maybe in the future I will add an option for themes for those who don't get along with this background..
this looks really handy, great idea. The current setup can really only handle my base pay because i have a somewhat complex pay plan.
I earn bonus amounts of cash for selling various things, can you make it so you can add on different amounts on different shifts?, I'd wanna be able to add that on after the fact or during the shift if it makes any difference.
If you wanted to go even farther out, adding some kinda system for handling commissions, like enter the dollar value for a given shift, and calculate a set percentage as commission to add to the hourly rate.
Hey beddess,
People already asked me about bonuses.. It will be added in the future..
cool, bonuses (we call them spiffs, special incentives) are the more important one i was asking for. I get those fairly regularly.
Commission comes into play less for me, i have to consistently do good all week; plus our commission system is complex enough system that i only dimly understand our plan. So, even if you jump on the idea it might be hard to model the plan.
I've been working a lot of slow shifts so with hourly + bonuses it'll model things pretty well for me.
Hey everyone!
After a long time, I've released a new version with some pretty cool new features!
You are welcomed to check the new version out and also Like the app's Facebook page.
