I am also going to be in Abuja soon

Interesting. I just started learning Java, and truth be told, the materials online are just too much. The plan is to develop mobile apps but the books i found on mobile app development all talked about having an idea of java generally before starting so I had to start learning java. A little advice would be cool. I use Netbeans, JDK 7, and I also have the ADK.

My Third Android App Coming Soon

This android application will help you flash a number automatically. It will automatically drop the call before the receiver picks the call.

You can set when you want to flash a number using a timer and it will automatically do the job for you. It also come with automatic repeating flashing with a time interval you set.

Although this will not be use to upset some people but sometimes we can't help bump flashing some people.

I still have one bug that I am trying to fix. My phones runs on android 4.0 so I will like you guys with other version of android to test the app for me.

Great stuff, where can we get the app to test?

BetaQuick: Great stuff, where can we get the app to test?

I will provide the link today. Thanks for your interest.

This is link on the Google play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.toscanyacademy.callflasher.

You can also search it with it's name - Call Flasher

Thanks for helping out

Download Statistics So Far

My first and second apps were uploaded to the Google Play Store on 17th September while the last was just today. The download stats so far.

Thesis Topic Suggestions - 302 Active Install

African Celebrity Photo Quiz - 36 Active Install

Call Flasher - [b](Uploaded Today) - 4 Active Install



I am not much concerned now by the download counts. I am happy that these apps have let me dig into native android programming and I am not sure if I will be looking back any time soon.

What I have observed in less than one month is that if you want many downloads don't focus your app to Nigerian users. Make it universal. Out of 342 total installs in my apps, Nigerian users account for only 5.

I have also taken time to exam other apps in Google play that focus on Nigeria, many of them still have little download counts. I might not be right but this is the trend I found so far.

I can't find the app yet on google play store. The link does not work for me yet. I guess it hasnt fully propagated through all the servers.
I will try again later.

Interesting observation on the download count. Are you doing any marketing to get the downloads?

Thanks for your interest. you can search for toscanytech to see the list of all the apps I published. Then you can select it from the list.

Please let me know how it goes for you.

nollyj: After I have finished my first and second android app, I decided to give MTN App developers Challenge a try although I am not planning to win but if I win I will still be glad.

The app I will submit is an android Education Application. A brief description of the application is shown below.

This Edu App is targeted to Nigerian Students in Senior Secondary School.
It covers most of the major subjects in WAEC, NECO and JAMB exams.
Students can read a comprehensive tutorials on different Students
Students can take an assignment
Students can take a quiz or download past exam questions and current exam time table etc.

I will be updating this project at interview. If you have a question and or suggestions, feel free to drop it.


I am also looking for someone who I will collaborate with on this project/challenge. Your main duty will be more of a data entry to the database. If anyone is interested and you are good with database management system (SQLite) just drop your email and I will contact you.


The screen shot of the work in progress is shown below.

Ok I got it. I downloaded the app.

Thanks for download and helping out for testing, If you experience any issue kindly let me know.

BetaQuick:

Ok I got it. I downloaded the app.

kudos man on my way to join you lol ... just hold on ...

Okay heres my app.

Name: FtMoney

Status: Beta

Description:
An application written as a proof of concept for an upcoming mobile money firm. The goal of the app is simply allow tellers post details of a transaction to a central database as quickly as possible. After which a receipt is generated and sent to a mobile printer.

Android phones have become cheaper and quite powerful over the years and given their lower power requirements compared to laptops, they stand out as a fine choice for remote areas where power isn't really guaranteed.

The app takes care of situations when the network fails and is flexible enough to allow tellers continue to accept in registrations and later process them. This is implemented through the unsubmitted entry Activity. Which allows for searching, printing an entry and submitting it also.

Long term prospects:
Expand the application, make it more generic and usable by not just for mobile banking, but more of a mobile registration platform.
