Hello guys, I hope I will not be violating any rules. I would just like to inform the community with our mobile. It's been in the playstore for a while but have no traction yet since we have not focused on marketing it.
It is called Makeapp. It's goal is to empower everyone to be able to create apps for hobby, business, etc.
We know that the UI needs improvement at first glance as well as user experience during creation of apps. With it's current version, we have already used it for providing several apps for a few clients such as an HR mobile app, delivery app, mobile dashboard, several e-learning apps, etc with few to zero coding. With these even business owners and non techy people will be able to create their own apps.
Hope you give it a try and give us feedback and ideas on how we can improve the product.
We are not yet sure in open-sourcing it but there have been discussions.
Here's the link if you are interested.

Moderators, please feel free to move this to another forum if it doesn't fit here.
There are currently no Usenet groups for Android software or supported trans-coded video files. There are advantages to hosting these files on Usenet, rather than on this, or other websites. Please PM me if you would like to hear my opinion. I will not discuss this openly.
I would like to propose one be created, but actual new group additions to Usenet are a pain in the rear and require a community backing.
Is anyone else here familiar with the process?
I have never added a group myself, but I have worked for a Usenet provider and know that it is not a simple process. It would require a proposal in the alt.control newsgroup, as well as a discussion and justification of the group between supporters and the ISC (www.isc.org). For this, we need people to speak up and support our group in the alt.control newsgroup.
Notice how I say OUR group. I propose the group be un-moderated, because suggesting a moderated group requires a lot more organization, time, and discussion before the ISC will consider the addition.
Again, if anyone has actually undergone the addition of a new group, please speak up. If no one has, but people are interested, I will try to work with Usenet assistance groups on getting a group added.
Thoughts?
I'd be surprised if a quarter of this forum knows what a newsgroup is.

Ahh, well if there is not a community interest, I won't pursue it. In my opinion, the brightest people use this site, so I'm only posting here.
I guess then, I am one of the 25%. I gave up on usenet years ago when the content to spam ratio got too bad.
I still grin when I think of alt.barney.die.die.die
I guess it all depends on what exactly the OP wants out of a newsgroup. These days most interest groups / communities on the internet form around http-based services like forums and bulletin boards. There are also hybrid http/email mailing list type things. Generally the whole of the Android community is well served by these tools already. Between the various fansites (phandroid, androidguys, etc), the Google android-discuss groups, xda-dev, and #[email protected], I think there are plenty of points on the internet as-is for all comers alike.
Of course, then theres the modern-day usage of usenet, which is not so much discussion-centric rather than a no-holds-barred haven for digital piracy and pretty much every kind of porn under the sky.
A hello across the xda forum,
We're holding a survey on how mobile-app developers market (and monetize) their mobile applications. Its a global survey and focused mainly for app developers. The survey's main purpose is to answer questions like how the mobile apps market is evolving and what will it become in the coming years. This information will help developers better develop, market and therefore monetize their apps.
Would anyone be interested in this kind of research ?
Hi there,
I just started a new website at http://www.androidheroes.com, which will focus on Android Apps and the overall Android ecosystem.
I've decided on a feature, that each friday, I would like to do feature on a single app, to help gain some publicity for the developer, at no charge.
As a software developer myself, I know how important publicity is, and I want to allow developers to use my site as a tool for just that.
I don't know if this is against forum rules, but I quickly checked, and couldn't really see anything.
There's a few criteria to be met:
App must be complete and released on the Market.
Submission must include a 638(w)x300(h) image to be featured on the front page.
A QR code and link to the application must be provided.
No more than 500 words about the application, including summary, functionality etc.
No more than 200 words about the developer, including profile, homepage etc.
I am aware that Android Heroes is a new site, but with features like this we hope to grow our user base rapidly.
Please send all submissions to MOD EDIT: REMOVED EMAIL, I will chose the best submission and feature it tomorrow (Friday 25th).
Thanks,
Chris
Below is the text of a brief email interview conducted with Sarah Teng, Director of Marketing at Apsalar, for an article about app analytics that will be published soon to the XDA Portal. If you have any experiences with specific analytics providers, post them in this forum.
What are the most valuable pieces of data that come out of your product? Why? Give examples of how I might get actionable data, make a change, and improve results.
Apsalar provides free in-app & campaign attribution analytics that provide actionable data for developers to improve their business. Developers find tremendous value in our cohort analysis, trending report, funnel analysis & the ability to automatically track in-app revenue. These features give developers the tools to measure engagement, retention and monetization. We recently published a case study with Trivi.al, where they leveraged our funnel analysis to identify a key bottleneck in their user invite process, and using that data, were able to double their viral coefficient (a measure of virality of their app.) We also helped Motion Math double their conversion rates (see case study here).
What most differentiates you from your competitors (features, pricing, etc)?
Apsalar differentiates itself in a few key ways. The first is that we are a completely free analytics solution. We want to give tools to developers to help them build better apps, which thousands have done using our analytics. Also, we are a mobile first solution, not a web solution ported over to mobile. This is key because we have built an analytics platform with mobile developers in mind, using mobile identifiers and metrics, vs. working around web-based metrics like the pageview. Finally, we are focused on behavioral metrics, such as users' revenue, engagement, and retention. our ability to track revenue automatically for developers is an extremely valuable feature. Developers need an easy and accurate picture of how their business is performing, and looking at which SKUs are generating the most revenue, including slicing that data by marketing campaign source, is invaluable information that helps them build a better business, not just a better app.
Explain your range of pricing and, if you have a low tier or free option, what features are only available to premium users?
Our analytics solution is completely free, and there are no usage limits.
Are there any technical aspects of implementation that would be helpful to explain?
In order to gain access to Apsalar's analytics platform, developers simply need to download our lightweight SDK and drop it into their app. The basic integration process takes ~5 minutes.
What advice would you give to help make new independent app developers more successful?
Measure & focus on engagement of users, not quantity of users. Focus on measuring the right metrics to track using a funnel or cohort analysis, and optimize your app for high engagement metrics. We recently published an ebook on this topic, explaining which 5 engagement metrics developers must track for their mobile apps.
Related to the above, in your mind what makes an app successful? Why do some "great" apps not get noticed?
With ~1.5M apps in the app stores today, it takes more than simply a great app to get noticed. Most developers use paid solutions to acquire users, but ensuring these users remain highly engaged with the application is the key. Our Big Data Lab recently released some data showing which categories of apps generate the most in-app purchases and saw that the apps that were unable to generate engagement were conincidentally unable to generate revenue. Feel free to check out some more of our data findings on our Big Data Lab Page.
Hey there!
I have an idea for an app that could be wildly successful, however I can't code a single line on my own...
Would be excited to hand out co-ownership, etc. to anyone willing to help build the app:
A community involvement app that will safely connect like-minded users together, based on mutual interests.
Main features:
Hangout: Connecting based on categories of interest, such as wanting to play local sports, to finding a church buddy, to college kids needing a study-buddy, to musicians needing to connect, etc. Besides the base mutual interest, there'll be elaborated user profiles to help further identify who you'd connect with. Users can create temporary cliques for other users to join up in group activities.
Groups: Creating groups will allow like minded users to engage in large scale hangouts and discussions. Joining groups can be done openly or invite-only.
User-driven economy: Bolstered by a secure & elaborate Terms Of Service Agreement, Users can make real money by getting creative - from setting up their own business, to renting or selling their personal belongings, to renting out rooms, to posting job requests, etc. All of which will be able to be advertised. Users will also be able to post catch-all urgent help requests here, too.
Tipping: A real life currency tipping system will be available for users sending money to each other - perhaps for a paid service, to donating to a charity, to tipping artists, people offering help, and anyone in between.
Events: Displays all categorized local events for users to connect with. These will be created & broadcasted by groups, local services, and individual users. Adding events to your calendar & sharing events with fellow users will be amongst the main draws of the feature.
