Hi everyone,
First off sorry if this thread is out of place, please feel free to move it if necessary.
I am a graphic designer with many years of experience and a huge interest in designing apps for android. With my limited programming knowledge I can't go about making my own apps but I have gotten into themeing, for htc sense mostly, as a gateway to get into designing for the smartphone screens.
If you are an app developer looking for a designer for your app please feel free to contact me through pm. I would put my email address but im afraid of teh spamz...
If you need any other type of design work you can contact me for that too!

Thanks for your feedback.
Like the idea so far!!! i had something like this on Windows Mobile....I used to use it to text and view my phone without having to pick it up.
Question: Do you have to have the full version in order to text? That's what I wanted to try before I make a purchase.
Can you add "Background task" so i can have this on while doing other tasks on my phone?
Thanks.

Just left a few suggestions (under nick "SeNS") on your voting site.
BTW, nice work (bought a paid version)! I especially like a web page design
P.S. I do have a question to you: could you help with web-page design for the open source project(s)? And did you offer some commercial services for the custom web page design (I need a simple "Metro-style" informational home page)?

Dear barrychon,
Thank you for your useful feedback.
Actually the trial version is a quite similar to the full version with limitation with number of photos and contacts, please try the trial before purchasing.
Regarding the text from PC, yes you can send text messages, emails, make phone calls from PC using GoToMyPhone, however, you have to confirm the action from your phone, this is a security concern from Microsoft API.
Regarding the background task, even if the application works in background you can't reach it via socket, the background apps run every amount of time, API does not allow Background apps as service.
Please vote for existing ideas or create your own idea on: http://gotomyphone.uservoice.com/forums/227942-general

Dear SeNS,
I really appreciate your voice on my feedback page, I will try my best to review and include some features if feasible with current API.
Concerning your requests, I may be able to help with open source projects, please check my page on codeplex: http://www.codeplex.com/site/users/view/fakoua
Review my current projects and invite me to your projects or just mail me [email protected].
Concerning commercial services, I really appreciate your offer, but I'm busy with too many projects including GoToMyPhone and MetroAirServer (light IIS over WP8), I can't provide commercial services.
For your metro-style page, you may check the open source section in GoToMyPhone about page, and please refer to: http://aozora.github.io/bootmetro/ a modified theme for Bootstrap (twitter bootstrap) it may help with your design.
Please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Thanks for the quick reply; I'm really appreciate your attention!
Please, check my codeplex profile: https://www.codeplex.com/site/users/view/SeNS
Probably, I'll ask you soon about design of the simple configuration web-page for my new, upcoming project "X10 home server" (not released yet). There is nothing special; just a few controls and input boxes but I really want it elegant and stylish as your configuration pages for the "GoToMyPhone" app

Please read the XDA forum rules regarding posting apps, and make sure you're in compliance with them. The key component is that you're not allowed to use this board as advertising for a paid app, although you're welcome to provide a way to get it for free here and then link to a paid version (not a paid *upgrade*; that's not the same thing) as a sort of "feel free to donate by buying the app from the store" kind of thing.
I haven't tried the app yet, so I don't know how severe the trial restrictions are (something you should be specific about, by the way) but I'm tired of seeing links to paid third-party apps in the forum. Time was, this board was for finding beta testers and publishing links that anybody could use (often to the XAP files themselves; this is a developer community and most of us probably have dev-unlocked phones).
Sorry

Dear GoodDayToDie
I'm so sorry if I didn't follow the forum rules, I know it is not an excuse, but I found a lots of free trial apps with commercial edition, and that's why I created this thread, and as I said, It is not an excuse.
Please feel free to take any action regarding this post if you think it is not following the rules.
Thanks
Eh, I'm not a moderator or anything, I just want to make sure they don't have to get involved. Some of the apps, where the trial is "get the app for free, and if you want to donate/thank us, buy it!", are not a problem at all; it's mostly a matter of making sure people can get the app for free if you want to post it here. There's nothing wrong with asking for donations or anything, it's just not OK to advertise commercial stuff unless it's related to the site.
Hello everybody,
We are a two member team with an application idea that we think could be useful for a lot of people. We have a list of features and a complete UI design plan. A video showing the features is also being created.
The application is intended to handle the notifications in a smarter way. To achieve that, we need a Google Chrome extension also. (Please notify us in your e-mail, whether you have already experience in developing Chrome extensions!).
With a simple and easy to use interface, this app is only intended for doing a few things, but doing those efficiently and fast.
We do not have a business, or any money. Our payment for a developer would be a % cut of the revenues, or we could try crowdfunding the idea. If it works out, we could partner up for future projects too, because we have an another app idea also (it is significantly bigger and much harder to make).
If you are interested in more details and UI design pictures, PM, or send an email to [email protected]
Please only write if you think that this idea has potential. If you have previous experience from developing an app, please include a link of that in your message.
Thank you!
Hi everybody!
I am a developer and want to monetize my app.
Can you advice me ad networks? or other ways to do that?
Thank you so much!
2 ways
There are two main ways to make money from mobile app.
One: you create an app and charge people for using it. You decide they should pay you through app purchase or in-app purchase. People usually don't buy an app unless it's very popular. So I suggest you offer in-app purchase. You can let them use one part of the app free (to make them like it) and pay money to use the app completely.
Two: you create a free app and allow advertisers to put their ad in your app. You and advertisers will work through a mediate platform. I have used 3 mobile ad platform: Admob, StartApp, Adsota. And I recommend Adsota & Admob. StartApp is ok but the 2 other two just work better for me,
In case you want to show video ads, instead of banners/pictures. I heard that AdColony is great for video advertising. But haven't used it myself yet.
We are living in 2015, so now free-app model much more popular, then paid
Admob + In-app purchases is the best way, I suppose
In XDA, there is a thread "how to monetize your android application". that is to tell you how to monetize your application. that worth you to read if you want to make money from App.
3 ways is minimum
You should cover all users. Some can pay, some can watch video to get some features in your app, other can see banner or other static ads. The main thing is your app's quality. Good luck!
I would recommend adding ads to your app and create a version that users can buy to remove the ads, win win situation
An amazing website!

Hello! There are many sites like admob.
You should try to promote your app using companies like "Waypedia". They even make a marketing strategy for your app!
Work on building brand awareness by making profiles in the social networks, set up a website, use Google Adwards, create a blog for the user, etc.
best is admob

Admob + In-app purchases :good:

Hi there!
There are a bunch of ad networks that are doing pretty good job. But have you consider to work with multiple ad networks at the same time? One way should be signing up on each ad network a be sure that you don't miss any possible and potential revenue. But there's an intelligent way to do that, this is, trying Programmatic Mediation. There are few good companies like Fyber, Sueprsonic or Appodeal, the one I am using and the one I am completely satisfied.
Whatever you choose, the advantages are clear:
- 1 sign up, 1 SDk all the market
- Higher incomes because they operate globally
- Higher fillrate because the pool of advertisers is the biggest, because you will work with all of them
- Because everythiong in Mediation is programmatic you will have more time to focus on developing than managing your ad inventory
- Probably your earning will boost
Ping me if I can help you by providing more info
Cheers!
Tips for making money from app -
1.The Freemium Upsell. This requires having a second version of your app that's paid
2.In-App Purchases
3.Ads
4.CPI Networks (Cost Per Install)
5.Sponsorship.
App monetization
Hi!
As many have said, the main ways of making money for your app are : adding IAP and work with ad networks. Our company has recently launched a FREE WiFI SDK for developers-this SDK will help you both increase user retention and ad revenue as we work with some ad networks. If you are interested in integrating the SDK, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or check out WeShare WiFi SDK.
We'd love to hear from you and help your app grow
Cheers!

I would like to monetize my app thanks to Admob, mMedia or Inmobi. Advantages and drawbacks of these mediate platforms?
Explore Clickky monetozation solution
I’m sure that with Clickky ad formats as well as optimization engine you can increase earnings from mobile advertising.
With one of the strongest demand in the industry, we can guarantee max fill rates as well as high eCPMs. For top publishers, our eCPM rates easily reach $15.
In case you may be already satisfied with your current advertisement earnings; however, what we offer is to help you to monetize unsold inventory, to scale up to fill rates in specific geos or overall eCPM increase thanks to integrating Clickky monetization tools.
By being connected to most ad exchanges and mediators in the industry, our Clickky team strives to maximize fill rates of our publishers and; therefore, to increase their revenue. We'll adapt to your preferences – in case your fill rates are low in, for example, the European region – we'll make sure to provide you with an appropriate demand and so much more...
It also depends on your app - what does it do?
If it's a game with somewhat fast level clearing(~1-3 minutes), you could add an interstiital every 3 levels or so.
Add a top/bottom banner and an in-app purchase to remove them completely.
For games you can also reward in-game coins for the user if they watch a video ad. Think there was an article regarding this -> and it was the least intrusive ad, most people would watch a video ad if they got some sort of in-game reward.

Different monetization models for mobile apps:
Premium: users pay to have access the app.
Freemium: there is a "free" limited version of the app for the users to test before they decide to get the full version.
Subscriptions: payments are made weekly/monthly/yearly.
In-app advertising: keeps the app free to play, developers profit implementing ads in different formats (banner, native, videos, interstitials, etc.)
In-app purchases: users need to pay to have access to certain elements or special features of the app. But the app itself is still free.
All of these models can be combined. Experienced developers have had good results mixing in-app ads with in-app purchases.
The most popular monetization model is in-app ads (free to play). To implements this model in your app you can choose an ad network, or go with mediation.
I would say mediation is the best you can do, since it makes several ad networks compete in real time, so you can get the highest paying bid. Try Appodeal! You can integrate various ad networks in one stable SDK. And with the help of their 24/7 support team, installing it in your app should be fast and easy.
Hello Everyone,
Apologies if this is not the correct place to ask this question
I am working on my app building strategy for my running food chain outlet and was wondering how can I utilize the application to monetize my business.
What are the correct ways in which I can make my application better and known to people?
Any suggestions would be acceptable
Thank you
While developing a Mobile Application you must take care of alot of things, that if you are building a Mobile Application is it feasible to build so? Are you getting any revenue after building that specific application?
Here are some mobile app monetization strategies that you should consider while building an application-

2. Use Video promotion and social media promotion for your app to make it popular and known to people
3. Make your app teasers and try to promote them for a better return on investment.
4. Write some engaging content and promote that in order to get some monetisation
These are some useful ways to promote your app and monetize it with a great idea, rest depends upon the type of app you have and what are the consequences of promoting that app.

Your question isn't really clear. Are you at the development stage of your mobile app or are you at the marketing stage?
1. You mentioned that you're working on an app building strategy (development) and you want to know how you can use your app to monetize your business.
I can answer this but could you please tell me what purpose your app is going to serve? Like is it a food delivery app?
2. How can you make your app better and increase its awareness (basically? marketing)
Again, could you please specify the main features of your app. There are numerous ways to market your app, the strategy you should adopt depends entirely on your app.
I’m going to answer both of them. In case someone else might be looking for an answer as well.
