| App You Made for Fun that is Now Profitable Posted: 27 Aug 2016 09:15 AM PDT I am working on an app that deals with an industry I am a big fan of (sports). I have the layout and monetization scheme all mapped out (ads, monthly in-app purchase). I am undertaking this project out of a mere desire to learn android and develop a basic skill set of Java MVP, design, and network interaction (Retrofit). Just curious about some of the stories associated with those who worked on an app for similar reasons and have actually had financial success. Any stories and/or advice is appreciated!

| What API's do popular Podcast apps use for searching Podcasts? Posted: 27 Aug 2016 05:30 PM PDT I was planning on making a podcast app(just for fun) and was wondering what API's some of the popular Podcast apps(PocketCasts, Podcast Addict) use to provide the Podcast search functionality to the users? Do they create their own search directory? I am aware of the iTunes search API but that has a limited number of Podcasts available on it. Additionally, I would like to know your thoughts about the pros and cons of having my own database of podcasts and if this is a better route, then how I could go about ensuring I have a large collection of podcasts in my database.

| Best book for advanced android development? Posted: 27 Aug 2016 11:51 PM PDT No matter what app you work on you will probably find yourself focusing on certain android areas and forgetting the rest. For those who want to keep themselves informed, what do you think are the best books/resources out there that skip all the "basic" android stuff? [link] [comments]  |
| [App] StackViewer (Open Source App) Posted: 27 Aug 2016 07:53 PM PDT I was develop an app with the StackExchange API pointing to StackOverflow Site. You can see the code (and I will appreciate if you fork) on Github and test the app on Google Play [link] [comments]  |

| Web dev vs Android dev (career advice) Posted: 27 Aug 2016 08:19 AM PDT Hello, I'm a noob(let's be real), have basic experience with web dev and C++,java. From job stats for inexperienced just out of college, I see that web dev salary is much lesser compared to android dev. While on freelance websites like upwork I see that rates for android programmer's coming down n pretty similar if you count number of opportunities. So as a beginner what should I learn? Do you think android native development dying? And what can give me the fastest career improvement? P.S: from India, although I like native complex app dev in a oop lang, I am leaning towards web dev because of the quick employability/more work. [link] [comments]  |

| CardKeeper - Simple app using Realm/Dagger/RxAndroid Posted: 27 Aug 2016 08:35 AM PDT I've created a simple app using Realm, Dagger, and RxAndroid for scanning and storing barcodes. This is my first time using Realm, so any feedback regarding the architecture would be greatly appreciated! [link] [comments]  |
| Changes to Impression Measurement for AdMob Banner Ads GOOD? Posted: 27 Aug 2016 03:38 AM PDT Hi, guys. So I'm not a full-flagged Android developer, but I have some simple guessing games on Android that are earning ~$300 per month. I recently got this mail from Admob saying there will be some changes on how banner impressions are measured: " Dear AdMob Publisher, We're making an important update to the way that we define banner ad impressions. Today, AdMob counts native and interstitial impressions when at least 1 pixel of an ad appears on a device's screen. However, AdMob counts a banner ad impression each time an ad is served to the app. We're changing the way we count banner ads to align with interstitial and native ads. On September 27, 2016, we'll start counting an impression when at least 1 pixel of an ad appears on the device screen. This update will gradually take effect over the months of September and October for all Google banner ads. However, it won't apply for any ads mediated from third parties via AdMob. Why are we making this change? By making this change, the impression data you see in your AdMob account will now show you when ads are actually appearing on users' screens. This allows you to optimize your ad implementation while maintaining a clearer definition of an impression across apps. What do I need to do? You are not required to take any action. As this measurement change rolls out, you may notice some differences in the banner ad metrics in your account -- i.e. impressions, CPM and clicks. The CPM calculated using this new definition will be utilized in the AdMob Network Report (as 'Impression RPM'), as well as within mediation features (such as Live eCPM and Ad Network Optimization). We look forward to continuing to work with you to monetize your app. Kind regards, The AdMob Team " While I understand that there will be a change on how impressions for banners are counted in order to with interstitial and native ads, I'm having trouble figuring out how it will affect me and my apps. Can one of you guys shed some light on this subject? Will we see a difference in our revenue(hopefully higher RPM) or this is just a change that will allow us to analyze better how the ads are being served? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 27 Aug 2016 11:24 AM PDT I'm working on an app right now for interval training which allows users to customize the segments and intervals. At the moment I have it set up so that when the user edits a segment or interval, they have to click the save button at the top to commit the changes. I've recently noticed that some apps simply just commit changes when you press the back button and instead have a cancel button at the top. Inbox, for instance, when you edit a reminder, just saves the changes to the reminder once you hit back. What are your thoughts and opinions on this kind of behavior? [link] [comments]  |
| What is a good resource to find research Paper for Android? Posted: 27 Aug 2016 01:08 AM PDT I am thinking of implementing some feature present in some android research papers. What is a good source to find such papers also if any such paper have any co-relation with Machine learning or Data Science. [link] [comments]  |
