Why there isn't a launcher which can sort apps by colour? Posted: 29 Sep 2018 02:56 AM PDT This can sound stupid at first, but I tried it and I found it extremely brilliant. When I unlock my smartphone I want it to launch an app (95% of the time), but it takes a little mental effort to find the app. I know this because sometimes I'm doing something else (e.g. talking) and it takes a bit more time to launch the app I want. A lot of people use a "positional remembering" of where an app is, but this is good if you have a few apps and if you never move them. The app drawers aren't good for positional remembering because usually they reorganize apps alphabetically. Some app drawers keep the position of an app, but they tend to stack up your new apps at the end. One great idea is to organize apps in folders and categories (e.g. Smart Launcher). This is a great way to rapidly find an app, but it keeps requiring a little mental effort to think about which category an app belongs to. I realized that sometimes I switch between all the categories looking just for the icon app that I want, because I don't want to think of the specific category or because my mind is busy thinking of something else. When I think of an app the first thing that comes into my mind is the icon. The colour and the shape of the icon. Sorting apps by colour takes the minimum mental effort. I already have in mind the icon and I don't have to find it in a big mess of apps, I can go straight to the color and then just look for the shape I want between a few apps. Example: I want to launch Google Keep. The first thing I think is of a yellow light bulb. I don't think to where it is. I don't think to at which category it can belong to. I don't think to where it is alphabetically speaking, I don't even care if it's called Google Keep or just Keep, and this obviously changes its alphabetical order. My question is: why popular launchers don't have a colour sorting? I mean, there are few launchers which sorts apps by colour (e.g. com.yandex.launcher), but they're not good as the most popular ones. You can give a look at how I organized my Nova Launcher with Glim icon pack. There are more apps in the app drawer, but I colour sorted the apps that I use more. Try it yourself! [link] [comments] |
How force GoogleSearch to use Firefox instead of "Chrome" (Android 8, Nova Launcher, no root) Posted: 29 Sep 2018 01:35 AM PDT ---------- EDIT: SOLUTION ---------- Uninstall Chrome - I did it by using AndroidAssistant's uninstall feature. ---------------------------------------- First off: I do have Firefox set as my default browser and it works fine for links and the like. What I'm looking for is a way to force the search results I get when I search for something via the GoogleSearch bar to open in Firefox instead of that weird in between thing. I don't even think it's Chrome, when you open the menu it even just says "powered by Chrome" on the bottom. Also I'm using Nova Launcher to have the GoogleSearch bar be located in the dock - if that is of any relevance. An alternative all together would apparently be the Firefox search widget, but that doesn't show up in the widget menu for some reason. Thanks for any help! [link] [comments] |
[DEV] I made an audiovisual app called Just Retrowave, it's free and I'd appreciate some feedback. Posted: 29 Sep 2018 09:43 AM PDT Hi! Short backstory: I was working on a simple one touch mobile game when I came across an app called Just Rain. Inspired by that I modified my game to make a relaxing audiovisual retrowave app. The app features a few different options. Colours can be changed, clock and/or date can be added and a car can be added to the screen. The app also features a CRT shader emulating both scanlines and screen bulge. I've tested the app and it ran great when I used it as a desk clock for a few hours. But of course I'd appreciate some more feedback. The application was made using Corona SDK, is completely free (no ads) although there is a donate button if any one likes it enough to buy me a coffee.

[DEV] Contact Tiles - contact photo generator Posted: 29 Sep 2018 04:32 AM PDT Hello all! After few years and three main releases I'm presenting you newest version of my app. It's big update and I'm very satisfied how it came out - along with some new features I also managed to get UI right (I hope). It is now more user-friendly and intuitive to use. So what it's all about? If you have contacts without photos, they are presented with different icon in each app. They are often ugly and inconsistent across system. You also can add photos manually if that's your thing, but is tedious task and results not always are great (because for some people you may haven't photos at all). And that's where Contact Tiles comes in - it will create photos to all your contacts. Choose background color, pick avatar or letter initials an voula - now you have personalized, clean look of contacts everytime you open dialer, messaging app etc. There's quite few options to customize appearance of tile with built in palettes, fonts and avatars. And if that's not enough you can create your own color schemes, add fonts from sdcard or even use Google Fonts library from within app!

Keyboard app that allows offset from bottom of screen? Posted: 29 Sep 2018 07:25 AM PDT I use substratum to hide my navigation bar completely, even when keyboard is open, but the keyboard is too close to the bottom of the screen. Is there any keyboard app that does like the iPhone x where it adds just a bit of space between the bottom of the keyboard and the bottom of the screen? [link] [comments] |
How to easily save a bunch of MMS pictures in High Quality ? Posted: 29 Sep 2018 11:04 AM PDT That's the question : How to save a lot of MMS pictures in High quality ?

Posted: 28 Sep 2018 09:27 PM PDT Having Location turned on uses much too much battery, even under battery saving mode.

Sosin is a messaging app where you always edit your messages! Posted: 28 Sep 2018 04:36 PM PDT Hey, reddit! Recently I published my first app made with Flutter and thought it would be a nice idea to share it around here too. Sosin (whisper in estonian) is a messaging app quite different from the others! Instead of having everything saved to a list of messages, you're always editing your own messages! It also has a "text-only Omegle" type of feature where you can find people waiting on channels based on common conversation topics. In previous versions, you could only send messages if both participants of a chat were online, and that changed to: you can send a message if your previous one was read. There's no "Typing..." indicator yet, nor voice messages, and any other features of the main messaging apps because, well, I did this all alone to learn a new framework and how to setup a serverless app with Firebase. How am I making money? For now, no money has entered the app's revenue, but the monetization is based on the fact that the previous message of the chat is the only history saved. If you already sent "Hey!", and then edited to "How are you?", "Hey!" will be kept until the next change and so on, and you can pay to unlock a chat permanently (for $1) so you can always see the previous message. So that's it! If you haven't clicked the link above, here's the Play Store link and also the App Store link if you're an iPhone lurker, but I also did a post around there! Thanks for reading and I hope you will be a frequent user! For the frequent questions, I'll edit this main post with the answers. [link] [comments] |

Is there a good Android app for offline turn by turn directions, but going across the United States? Posted: 29 Sep 2018 02:09 AM PDT I've done the drive from NY to the west coast, and it took me 4 days. I'm going to make the trek back, but I dont want to kill my data. Finding a hotel would be fine because I can use data for that, but would it screw up my trip directions? I've never used offline maps [link] [comments] |
