@elvis10ten thanks for the mention and I am glad that I have been of help.

The app looks good considering it is your first app. Please don't rush and release this app because this post has made FP.

Make sure you have finished with the little details and other suggestions before release so that you will not end up with negative comments and poor rating in Google Play Store.

Although I haven't seen or used the app but my suggestion will be to use cloud back-end storage system that can scale for user upload images.

Lastly, if you want to make money from it don't make it naija app rather universal app. Advertise it aggressive in naija so that you can get enough downloads that will help the app rank well in Google Play Store.

Nice job and best of luck

My thoughts exactly.

Honestly, If I was the designer, I wouldn't release the app as of yet. As a designer myself, I notice a lot of aesthetic changes I would implement.

Also, designers do not speak in user language. It is more beneficial to conduct a full user testing/evaluation--> modify design based on user evaluation before releasing his app.

Good luck smiley

Ok, google app engine is good.

One suggestion - you have to understand that photo sharing app is very challenging to maintain and it requires money if it becomes successful.

App Engine might be free now but once you exceed your limit you will start paying. Plan for it and save up some money for the unexpected.

Also, the real (huge) download comes from Google Play. Try as much as possible to get a publishers account.

Nice app...

My contributions;

1. Remember to make it available for lower OS Versions.
2. Its the Lollipop Season. Use the Material Design UI.
3. Call for Support - Graphic Designers, etc. A lot are here on NL. I'm sure they would love to have a hand in this.
4. Dont copy any previously designed app. Your app has so much Instagram in it. Whats the purpose of the app? FUNNY PHOTOS SHARING? You could use a pic of a BLACK MAN & WHITE WOMAN laughing real hard (Dont have a touch of Racism in your app) it may go international and someone would point out why you used only a BLACK in your app. It could be more than what you were thinking. For example, theres a Music Player app on Playstore - Z PLAYER, was created by a Nigerian (Temitayo Odesanmi) . The app was very nice and he had a couple of White friends on his team.

You could get more contributions from the great NL.

Re: Pictures Of My First Android App (comments And Suggestion Needed) by toshodei: 6:52pm On Dec 06, 2014
Nice I love it. Is the download link available? Here is my 2nd web app NoPay ~> http://nopay.comxa.com/. A search engine for free things online like airtime, data, and etc. I know that getting airtime, credit, data and money on our phones is hard so I created a search engine that will get us these things free or at a discount with deals. I will update as time goes on. Please let me know how you feel. A picture is attached. Thanks and Have A Good Saturday & A Great Weekend.

didn't use lollipop material design, because most nigerians won't get it soon. It will just slow done development adding support for lower version of the android os (separate layout, files, etc for them). But will do that later. I didn't copy instagram. You will see that when i upload the app. This design was in my head for the past 3 months. Thanks sir for all the points.

Information architecture organization is basically the metadata of the images and how they're arranged. Are users able to filter images based on author, ratings, recency, etc?

Damnlol had that problem and going through funny images without having the option to organize them the way I wanted frustrated the crap out of me.

Also, it doesn't matter if it's a new app, still offer a search button/search engine (search algorithm). Within a month or so, you may have over 100k images posted by users. It's better to prepare for the future right now.

Nice suggestions but i think you should give him time to make update from time to time.....

Its like instagram


Op inasmuch as your app is cool, its very much a copy of instagram,
the background
The format
The pics shape


I believe that you should make ur app more unique because this app might become popular and you get sued for copyright infringement


GOOD app tho......I love it


Where is d download link
thanks sir. I didn't copy instagram (i did get inspiration from them for tablet pages). I used the default android tools and icons with no much modification. Thanks sir.
