Thanks to all you droids

Posted by Ansar on May 16, 2009 in Company News |

A few days ago we released our first set of Android Homescreen Widgets and as of writing there are ~6000 users who have downloaded them. We’ve had many of you email in to say how much you’ve enjoyed them and how you cant wait for the next widget, Thank you all for writing in and commenting, it really means a lot to the team here.

We really do enjoy you providing us your valuable feedback, letting us know what works, what doesn’t, what you’d like to see in the next widget…..or any ideas for awesome apps you’d like us to develop.

I’ll let zahid do a more in-depth Blog post on the four Toggle widgets and our reasons for choosing those, the various technical and UI considerations and more in his next post.

I thought I would just say a quick thank you :)

Hi there @rameez and @Troy, The GPS widget has been in the works and we’ll be releasing it today. Would love to have your feedback on it. Its not as straightforward as our other widgets where we have just 1 click to toggle, because Google wont allow direct access to the GPS so it means having to have 2 clicks instead of one.

Thanks Michael, glad you’re enjoying them. A few other people have also asked for the Airplane Mode so I’m sure it’ll be in the works now :)

Hi Harrvy,
The only way you’ll be able to acheive something like that is to download skype or one of the other VOIP apps. Personally I have skype running on my device and it works brilliantly. Hope that helps.

Please, please, please make an app that allows you to toggle the vibrate from the lock screen. Currently you have to unlock the screen and tap either your widget or use the side button on the droid. It would be creat to have a button next to the “emergency call” button that says “Switch to Vibrate” Much thanks! Great apps!
