Updates

This week and last week, I have published several updates :

• First, the checklist. Most of issues of the new version 6 should be solved now
• Easy graph. It is now possible to compare two graphs, showing them on the screen at the same time.
• Inventory manager. i improved the backup system. Now you can use the XML format, which is in my eyes more secure than the previous backup method, which may generate backups incompatible between different versions of Android.

For all these apps I have enabled Android 4.0 Holo theme, and the action bar items. But I still need to adapt the layout for tablets... I don't forget tablet users, it is only a matter of time..

Also, for Easy Graph and Inventory Manager, I have added an in-app purchase to make the transition to the full, ad-free version easier. In the case of Inventory Manager Lite, those who have chosen to pay and support me are ensured that they will always have the same level of functionality as the paid version.

Cloud checklists

There's currently a problem with cloud checklists, I'm currently working on the server, and cloud checklists may not be available for some hours.

Also, I have published an patch on Checklist app, if you have version 6.0 or 6.1, it's highly recommenced to update.

Checklist updated

I have published this week a big update on checklist app. I hope cloud checklists will work better now.

I you have any problems, contact me on my mail, I'll answer you and fix bugs asap.

The kind of comments I hate

What a "pleasure" to receive such comments on Google Play, like today about my app Easy Graph :

Phishing your contacts! Google please get rid of this app from your list. It tries to send my contact info to its server without asking!

Dear Wonyong, please tell me how the hell did you arrived to that conclusion ??? Show me an ethereal trace, or anything to try to demonstrate your lies. If you read this, just give me your mail so I can send you some friendly messages....

I enjoy receiving comments on Google Play, even bad ones, provided people say why they don't like my apps, so I can improve them (when I have time).

But I really hate these kind of comments, totally false and not argued. And I can't answer on Google Play ...

Cloud checklists

There are currently some issues on cloud checklists. The app don't crash, but it's rather some synchronization problems (e.g. deleted item coming back).

I'm working to improve this feature and fix there issues at the same time. Also, I'll remove some limitations on cloud checklists (e.g. not being able to sort the items). I expect to release an update this summer.

While I speak about cloud checklists, I wanted to highlight that this feature is available only with Android 2.2 and above... Android 2.1 users still have the previous version (4.11). I'm not sure if I'll be able to fix that, but I'll think about it when I have released the new version of Checklist.

In app purchase in Checklist

It's been a while since my last post on this blog. I must say I have start a new job recently and I had other matters in mind. I talk about my real life job, the one allowing me to earn my life ;-) This didn't prevent me to answer to mails, and to fix bugs, but I had to take a break with Android development.

I'm now back on my tiny Android apps, and I saw I didn't talk about a new option in free version of CheckList : you can now choose to remove banner ads. But well, of course, this is a paid option :-)

If you decide to buy this option, you won't see anymore those annoying ads on the bottom of the screen in CheckList. And you will then have exactly the same app as the paid version (CheckList ad-free in Google Play), and this will be always true. If I ever publish a feature only for paid app, it will be also available to users who paid in free version.

That's why it should be the same price between paid version and the in-app-purchase. I said "should", because I just fixed a price difference for USD currency....

Update on checklist

I just release an update on Checklist with some bug fixes.

I removed the beta status on cloud feature, that means it's stable for use now. I will begin to remove some limitations (no possibility to sort items, copy, etc...).
