Hi, I am a student studying software engineering and this is my 3rd year and i am required to find a topic/subject for the undergraduate project to propose for lecturer. later it will be developed for real but i need to do the presentation first to obtain the lecturer's interest.
so anyone have any idea for apps or systems in mind that involving of using Android device? most students are doing web development or robotic kind of topic, but i wanted to do something for Android. the system must not be too simple, but also not too complicated for me to develop in the future but have a powerful output/results which help people doing things/works in everyday life.
and also some lecturers requires it to have Artificical Intelligence feature/type in a system.
and if you do know while suggesting, please do include what coding/programming language and what other knowledge(graphics/physics/etc) would be used in those systems.
I'm using SGS2, and prefer to make it working for hdpi device first cuz i can test it
Thanks!
Hello all, I have a question about developing an application for my graduation project. The idea is to develop an application in which the various books/information sources get a place and can be placed under different semesters/years. The information as provided has to have an easy way of updating for teachers(probbebly web-based). The aplication also has to work on iOS. Can you guys give me an idea on how to start i think HTML5 is a good option.
For cross platform application you can try PhoneGap(phonegap.com) with Dojo (dojotoolkit.org).
Front end is only half!

HTML5 will be great, but it will be difficult for a school to update as a native app. I suggest simply using a mobile-ready website. jQuery Mobile is great for this, and it handles all the cross platform issues. Have you given any consideration to serverside code? Php, .Net, and Node.js are all great options. Talk with an administrator about what kind of system they use to store files & links currently. You could fairly simply make a page that scans a file share they maintain to build the page .
Are all current (including budget) phones capeble of running .net or PHP? I'll probebly host the site/app myselve for a while during the test phase so if i go web-based it will be PHP since my host is a linux host. I'll have a look tomorrow, I'm studying to be an officer on a ship not an programmer so all programming is new, I did some vb/php but nothing fancy.
i started with icenium, but found out that icenium doesn't offer to store the webfiles on your own server. So thats not an option.
I make apps with tasker and I want to put them up on Play store in order to earn bucks, but they are not good/useful enough to sell directly. So I need to put ads and as far as I have read, I have to contact an ad network or two. But the problem is that I don't have programming knowledge at all! All I know is to make series of tasks and scenes in tasker and export them with tasker app factory so I have an apk file in the end.
I can make almost all apps which are usually seen in the top free apps' trends in Play Store.
So, how will I put their ads? Do they give something which involves the use of Android SDK? Or can I give them my apk file so they will incorporate their ads for me? (this doesn't seem safe though).
One solution for this may be that they give me HTML for the ad so I can put it in tasker's HTML box, but then the ad networks won't be sure if their ads are showed properly or I am showing something else over the HTML box.
Also, do I have to pay the ad networks in advance or do they only take the share from the advertisements' earnings?

UPDATE: I have learned how to develop real android apps using java and I have been uploading my apps with the name "Apps By Usman".
I thank everyone for the replies and I want to let everyone know that although I personally do not require an answer to this thread now, anyone who can share information about tasker apps and their monetization should write a reply for those visitors who would be needing such answer.
the post is like 4 months old, so i don't know if you still need the answers, but since nobody answered yet, i guess i'll just try, who knows if it helps you or anybody else.
i never used tasker before, but as far as i know, ads network company is providing sdk we have to include in our development project, some company like millenial media (i don't know about other company though) even providing step by step instruction of how to put their ads into our application on their website.
from your question, i assume tasker is something like game maker or app maker, sorry if i'm wrong, well, since i've some experience in using game maker also, just in case i'm right, in game maker, if they support putting ads into application, usually they include some option to do so, and the sdk from the ads network company is already included, i don't know if tasker have something like this.
hope this helps.
Thanks for the reply, tasker is not a development environment, it is just an app which lets us invoke different functions of phone on a step by step manner, and even lets us export these sets of actions as apk files.
I have, however, found that there is a very little possibility for banner ads in it. So I have now learnt coding in java and I am now making apps in java.
The answer to this question, if someone else is interested is that tasker can invoke html banner ads with the help of webview object if your preferred ad network supports this format, but to make real and native apps, we need to learn java.
if anyone needs to integrate ads in your tasker aps contact us.we have developed a plugin to help you.

admob?
You can get benefits by advertising.
Each advertising platform, there will be a detailed access way and their own SDK,

I am willing to monetize my app made with Tasker, is there any easy easy way to insert or inject ads into the apk without codes?
As for paying the ad networks- are you looking to advertise your product or publish advertisements on your app? I guess it depends how many users you have! If you want to both promote your app and monetize your audience base, you should consider choosing a cross-promotional advertising company. I can give suggestions, but for now I suggest you google App cross promotion companies and pick the one that is best for you.
As for the tool kit, it again depends on the company, but a good company will have the option of SDK, API S2S, open RTB, JS tag, etc
ad mediation !!
hey , if still need answer , ther is some mediation website where you upload your apk and they put their sdk in it with some banner or interstitel ads but still limited as tyou can't control where ads will show up, only at the begining or the exit .
So being this thread has been revived, Ad networks do not put ads in your apps, you have to put the ad networks into your app. This is normally done by taking hours and hours of your precious time coding a SDK into your project. Boring.....
Using Enhance, you can now integrate all of the services that providers offer without ever having to touch an SDK again. With little to NO coding at all and without touching source code, Enhance® is the easiest way to integrate 3rd party services into your project or to keep them up to date. (Ads, Mediation, Analytics, Attribution, Crash Reporting and more) No more SDK integration!!!
We even have a "ZERO CODE" option for certain features!!!
For more information on Enhance, just follow this link : https://goo.gl/kufiQQ

The point is being able to choose the placement and format for in-app ads easily. That's why mediation works so well.
I've been learning Android development recently and finally released my first free app.
It's open source and available on Github too. It's made with C# in Xamarin (not forms though, which meansit uses Android's native APIs).
I chose to start with a TOTP generator because
It's a non trivial use case yet not too complex
It allows to meaningfully integrate image acquisition and protocol handling
I already had a UWP version I could reuse the corre logic from
The Google OTP generator uses a web service to scan QR codes, as far as I can tell
I'd be interested in asking for feedback: does the app's UI feel right? What areas can I improve?

It was nice to see that you have your first software released. Congradulations... And thanks for sharing. As I saw you developed your software with Xamarin which is a cross platform framework. It would be great if you can share your experience here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/frameworks/native-vs-cross-platform-t3850250 with other people.
I like to hear more stories about crossplatform and also native coding experiences.
I'm going to give your software a try.
I'm not a fan of material design UI, however your app looks nice. Congratulations for creating your first app.
Congratulations. You made the right choice when decided to create tool. Wish you high ratings and many downloads! I downloaded it on my phone.
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-
1. Use Application Ads to build your customer and subscriber base so that it can help you to increase your mobile app revenue.
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.
