Hi,
Looking for an automatic way to categorize apps, we decided to propose an app to build an open database for app categorization and offer an API to easily access the available data.
The use of the API and associated database is demonstrated within the app CatApplus (see the associated thread). The app helps to build and consolidate this API and database. We present this app in a different thread to be less ambiguous in the releases and bug reports (note for moderators).
Examples of what you can obtain:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
How does CatApplus works:
-it retrieves all your apps
-it uses our API to retrieve associated categories from our database
-it stores all data in the application database for offline use and propose you categories via folders
-categories are listed below and apps that are not found from our server are put into "uncategorized" category (for manual categorization)
What is done server-side (API):
-each request (namely, the package name of the app) is proceeded via a parsing of available categories from markets (for the moment it is the Android Market but if you know other possible markets, you're welcome); if the app cannot be found in the database or in the available markets "unknown" tag is attributed
-the retrieved data is stored in a database for future use
-a JSON output is provided for an external app to retrieve: category; name; publisher name
-a regular dump sql/csv file is provided to import for your own use, your own app/rom/launcher; this file is free to use;
We offer (with no guarantee, of course !) our API and regular dump copy of the database for your own use ; no guarantees concerning availability in future (server costs), accuracy, maintenance ...etc.
The more the API is used, and the more data is available for your use ! The app will simply help to achieve this quickly. Just download the app CatApplus and let it guides you !
The available categories are the same that are available in the Android Market: 'Arcade & Action','Brain & Puzzle','Cards & Casino','Casual','Racing','Sports Games','Books & Reference','Business','Comics','Communication','Education','Entertainment','Finance','Health & Fitness','Libraries & Demo','Lifestyle','Live Wallpaper','Media & Video','Medical','Music & Audio','News & Magazines','Personalization','Photography','Productivity','Shopping','Social','Sports','Tools','Transportation','Travel & Local','Weather'
Some limitations:
-In CatApplus we defined an "Uncategorized" category for apps with "unknown" category (from teh API)
-"unknown" category for apps that cannot be found in available markets for the API
-Available markets: Android Market only for the moment
-The API:
Code:
http://api.ergsap.com/catapplus/catapplus_ind.php?catApplus_pn=myPackageName
Example (a great game!):
Code:
http://api.ergsap.com/catapplus/catapplus_ind.php?catApplus_pn=com.thevoxelagents.TrainConductor2
will output the JSON code:
Code:
[{"catApplus_pn":"com.thevoxelagents.TrainConductor2","catApplus_name":"Train Conductor 2: USA","catApplus_cat":"Brain & Puzzle","catApplus_pub":"The Voxel Agents"}]
In maintenance mode, the output is simply maintenance.
If the application cannot be found, all fields are set to "unknown", so the JSON output is:
Code:
[{"catApplus_pn":"myPackageName","catApplus_name":"unknown","catApplus_cat":"unknown","catApplus_pub":"unknown","catApplus_cat_pending":""}]
if the app cannot be categorized
or
Code:
[{"catApplus_pn":"myPackageName","catApplus_name":"unknown","catApplus_cat":"unknown","catApplus_pub":"unknown","catApplus_cat_pending":"pending"}]
if the app has not been categorized yet.
3 Dump files of the database (SQL/CSV files) are automatically updated (several times a day) and bzip compressed; raw csv, raw sql and buffered/memory efficient sql (smaller and faster insertions/import; you cannot edit it-one row syntax); see database to download;

Hi,
For the current release, when you install/uninstall apps, CatApplus doesn't automatically update categories due to performance issue; hit "menu/update categories" to launch a quick scan for the moment.
Do not hesitate to "reset categories" if "too many" apps have not been categorized (under "uncategorized" category); this may be due to internet connections, delay in server response ...etc
Adding apps to db?

Hi,
We are working on a "manual categorization" feature, notably for "Uncategorized" apps. Apps that cannot be found on our database or on selected markets are automatically put into this category. For the moment, only the Android Market is supported (i.e. if the app is not listed in this market, its category will remain "unknown"); we're working to integrate more markets to be able to categorize these apps and we will propose probably a "Category suggestion" to our users in the future.
A quick fix for the moment will be to use the "Favorite" category to gather the useful apps you want to categorize, in order to access them more easily. To put an app in "Favorite", long click on it, then "bookmark"; the new category will appear at the top of the list.
An other quick fix is to submit the apps you want to categorize, with their "legitimate" category/link so that we can check and...manually... integrate them into our database; for this fix, the categories must match the ones listed in the original post. We'll try to answer as quickly as possible ; send us a mail or post them directly in this post (other members may help to find the "legitimate" categories/developer/market links...etc); we could also propose an open Google Spreadsheet for the uncategorized apps ...many approaches !
Thanks for the feedback
Hi,
Here are some updates:
We have categorized so far 1357 apps; more statistics data are available here.
Dump files of the database (SQL/CSV files) are now automatically updated (several times a day); we will compress these data into bzip archives in the future for large files; see app and database to download;
We will propose soon an open google spreadsheet to contribute as far as possible to the categorization of apps with "unknown" categories.

weird bug, it does the same for the Droid Bionic.
At launch, it tries to create a local database of existing apps; this is probably the cause of the error you experienced. Without a precise log, it is difficult to solve. Could you PM your logs associated to the application crash or send a report (for the market version probably)?
The app works fine on N1, Galaxy Tab, Nexus S, Galaxy S/S2 ...and 2.1/2.2/2.3 emulator...4.0 version is too slow on the actual emulator. We cannot test on every phone model...really weird bug.
Hope this will be fixed soon !
Here are some screenshots of the new theme for phones and tablets:

Hi,
The last update fixed the "infinite loop" bug affecting the categorization of some apps.
If you have experienced any difficulties with this last version, do not hesitate to report the issues.
Apps that cannot be found on the Android Market or other integrated alternative markets will generally be put into the category "Uncategorized"; you can place them manually in the 32 available "native" categories. If you reset your categories, you can import these manual changes with "/menu/manage apps/import".
I would use this as my app drawer but ... the folder type is hard to read with the drop shadow. grid set to 153.
a coupl emore options on how folders are displayed would be nice. maybe even tha ability to rename officiel folder names, or merge catagories.
allow our own hierearchy of folders like you did for games. all individual types of games show up in games so enterteainment AND lifestyloe oficial categores go into a local folder "Style"
Something that I have been looking for !
Let me give it try now..

Hi,
The app is available in the Android Market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ergsap.catapplus
Only apps that can be found on the Android Market and a few others can be categorized. All apps that cannot be categorized are put under "Uncategorized" folder (some system apps or some apps generally integrated with the device such as volume/voice/settings/DSP...etc).

Hi,
Nice suggestions, thanks for the feedback
Ok for custom folder type/better grid/shadow control/more display control/rename native categories/possibility to merge categories. The app aims to be better and better
For your own app launcher, i suggest you to use the API used by Catapplus to be able to do what you want with {App_ID, App_Name, App_PublisherName,App_Category}. App_Category proposes 32 native categories (the same that can be found in the Android Market).
CatApplus just use this API and simply shows what can be done with such available information to build a nice app browser tool (the first one ?).
The limitations are several folds:
-the API delivers categories for apps that can be found on the Android Market (some other apps are being integrated progressively); the API outputs
"unknown" category for apps that cannot be categorized;
-the database is freely available to use with your own application (we propose regular dump SQL/CSV files); it is a static database (between releases) but it is, as far as i know, the first attempt to build an open API for this purpose ;-)
So you have two solutions: API or import the entire database for your own app (using JSON parsing functions). For remaining uncategorized apps, manual features can be proposed.
See the thread related to the API and the database (here) to know how to use them for your own application. Let me know if you have any suggestions.
Hi,
We updated CatApplus in the Android Market with several bug fixes (notably favorites, hidden apps/categories ): CatApplus
The database has been updated for performance and set to read-only: if a standard app is not categorized with the current version of the database, check later "Reset Category" to see if your app has been added to the database and thus to get its category. You can set manual categories also directly from the app and import them if needed later. Regular dumps of the database are always available on the statistics page here.
The database has for the moment more than 320000 categorized apps, among the most popular ones ! Plus 17000 apps has been labelled/categorized as unknown because either they are stock apps or simply they are not available on regular markets.
For some of you that find this app terribly useful, do not hesitate to post/send some feedbacks
Hi,
We will post on our twitter account notifications for the updates of our database; so that you can update the categories for your apps !
Follow us at: @ergsap
So, when an update is available for the database:
1) just hit "menu/reset cat." to reset the categories (a few seconds only )
2) then, if you had previously set manual categories, hit "menu/manage apps/import categories"
your bokmarks will be preserved, of course .
If any feedbacks, do not hesitate to share.
Hi,
A new update of CatApplus database is available with 27000 more apps categorized, for a total now of ~350000 apps categorized (great !) ! Just reset categories to see updates for your apps if you have uncategorized apps !
1) hit "/menu/reset cat."
2) if you set manually some apps, hit "/menu/manage apps/import categories" to restore your categories
3) you're done !

Update 1.2.6
Hi,
A new update of CatApplus is available in the Android Market with bug fixes and a new feature !
The new feature is the "Pending" category that indicates if the app has aldready its category in our database.
Just scan your apps ("menu/reset cat." and import your changes if you have made manual modifications of course via "/menu/manage apps/import categories").
=> Each time the database is updated, check the pending folder for avaialble categories for these apps: long click on the "Pending" folder and "reset cat." to scan for category updates only for these apps.
Bug fixes concern mainly the display of "list-style" theme icons and performances.
Upcoming feature: choose your custom folder icon ... !

It has been a while since Oneplus discontinued support for tapatalk. I really missed tapatalk so i created this one small app for my personal use.
Thought i should share it with people who are following oneplus here. And it also made sense to share it here as XDA is sort of officially supporting Oneplus. I have never seen any phone's review here on XDA except oneplus one.
I am not a developer and this app is made using appyet. So there will be ads, but i am sure lot of people here use adblocking apps, therefore it shouldn't make any difference.
Thus is not a full fledged app as i am not capable of making that. This is just a way to go through forums quikly , check your notifications, reply to few notification as you can't open multiple tabs in it,and stay updated with oneplus facebook page feed
Features
feeds from all facebook, twitter and google+ page
Mobile forums
background syc for Rss feeds
Recent Threads Rss feeds
Oneplus Forums Categories Shortcut (not all)

light and dark theme. Will try to add xda and oneplus theme as well in future.

-Adding more forum categories or Regional Forums shortcuts
-IF you want include all the youtube videos search result containing "oneplus"
- Any other custom google news alert or news source that is requested
-BASICALLY V2 AIM IS TO HAVE ALL THE CONTENT THAT IS NEEDED OR REQUESTED.
V3
This one is just cosmetic changes like adding some icons to the menu or re-grouping or arranging the left menu. Just the look will change in this version and that too very small differences. V2 is all that you will ever need.
V4
Experiment by removing various permissions like torch . If i am able to do that without breaking any functionality.
Auto start permission is needed so that app can sync rss feeds. you can disable it from settings. But if majority of users request it to be removed i will try to remove it as well (no promise as it might break some functionality)
If i am able to remove auto-start permissions then i will make two versions of the app one for the users who don't use auto-start and one who wants it.
V5
This version will be complete with all the sources, cosmetic changes, etc. Only thing i wll be doing is that i will make few different versions with some of the features excluded from v4 and name it as V5a, V5b etc so that people who uses just certain features of the app can download the appropriate version.
NOTE: if there is some other source or content related stuff to be added or suggested by user at any time. that will be included in the next version that i build after that suggestion.

It has been a while since Oneplus discontinued support for tapatalk. I really missed tapatalk so i created this one small app for my personal use.
Thought i should share it with people who are following oneplus here. And it also made sense to share it here as XDA is sort of officially supporting Oneplus. I have never seen any phone's review here on XDA except oneplus one.
I am not a developer and this app is made using appyet. So there will be ads, but i am sure lot of people here use adblocking apps, therefore it shouldn't make any difference.
Thus is not a full fledged app as i am not capable of making that. This is just a way to go through forums quikly , check your notifications, reply to few notification as you can't open multiple tabs in it,and stay updated with oneplus facebook page feed
Features
feeds from all facebook, twitter and google+ page
Mobile forums
background syc for Rss feeds
Recent Threads Rss feeds
Oneplus Forums Categories Shortcut (not all)
Oneplus Regional Forums Shortcuts (not all)

lot of you guys had send me postive feedbacks about the app , i really appriciate
some of you ask me how to avoid Auto-Sync , because the majority of you want the manual Synchronization their android news feeds
to do that, you just have to open Android Geek , go to the settings (on the tools section ) ; then choose "Synchronization" ,
and uncheck " automatic background sync "
" Settings "
choose "Synchronization"
uncheck automatic background sync :
Done
Once again thanks for using my application .

Thank you Regnuf but the problem not that I don't have the link to my application on Google App Store, the problem that I can't add links to my posts yet, BTW, the link you added doesn't refer directly to the application, there's some kind of mediation. But thank you for the effort & help, really appreciated.
