Phonechievements is back

Phonechievements (latest version 1.35)

About


Phonechievements brings achievements to the mobile phone. For those who are gamers the concept isn't new, for those who are not, achievements are just rewards you get for accomplishing a goal. You don't get an actual prize, it's just a form of reward that you get in writing. Moreover, this app allows you to brag on Facebook with them (for now).

Open the app and navigate through the list. Each achievement has a description on how you can unlock it. Want to let everyone know how you master the phone? Share on Facebook the unlocked achievements. Just open the app and go to the achievement and a Facebook logo button will allow you to do that.

With each update new features and of course new phonechievements will be added.

If you like the idea and want to help me improve or have any suggestions for new achievements, please check it out.

The app is available for Android 2.0+. If you find any issues please let me know so I can fix them.
Thank you.

Thank you guys. Please let me know if there's any crash or any problem with the app. I see there's a general request for a JellyBean / ICS theme therefore I will be working on this alongside with the new features and achievements. The theme should be out soon so stay tuned. In the meantime enjoy the achievements and if you think of some new ones, please let me know and you could see them in the app.

Also I would appreciate some feedback regarding battery usage, memory usage and stuff like that. I got to test it on some friend's phones while on BETA and it was reported as ok, but the more data the better.

Thank you.

A friends list would make this epic... a way to compare your lists with people you know

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

Yes. That would definitely make it better. I added this to the TODO list... quite on top. This will be available on a unique username base and you would be able to add friends using their username. Also a profile webpage would display all your unlocked achievements and as you said allow you to compare with other users you know or share your profile link anywhere you want.

New version published on Google Play

Just published a new update on GPlay. Give it some time to actually get it.

What's New:

* Added three new Phonechievements: Well Informed (Apps), I Always Take The Bus (Power Wizard), The Alternative Approach (Power Wizard)
* Minor bug fixes
* Battery usage reduced

Work in progress:

* Just started implementing the Twitter integration (a share button will be available next to the Facebook one).
* Another thing I started working on is a profile webpage. You will be able to choose a username and get a unique profile URL to share with your friends... and brag :) . Also a compare tool will be available so you can show your frinds that you have more phonechievements :)
* This is just the beginning as this webpage could easily be developed and improved. The way you will be able to update your profile is either automatically (setting) or manually.
* I also got a lot of complains about battery draining when GPS is on. I know what the problem is and it will be fixed in tomorrow's update
* AND THE BIG ONE COMING IN TOMORROW'S UPDATE: RandomChievements : The are phonechievements, yes they are ... but a little special. They are inactive most of the time, meaning you can't unlock them even if you accomplish the goal (by accident :) ). They become active randomly, at any time. You will get a notification that the randomchievement has become active. From that moment on you have a random amount of time to complete it. Sometimes it might be almost impossible to do it. But if you miss it , there's no worry, it will get active some other time. Randomly, of course. The only known fact is that it can not tell you to unlock it in less than 15 minutes. This is the lower limit. The upper limit is 6 hours. There will be a new category called Randomchievements where this new type of phonechievement will take its rest.


Last but not least... if you experience any issues , crashes , please report them so I can try and fix the issues.

Thank you.


P.S.


Can we change the "Oops, I did it again"? Lol

You should add some sort of badge system - like with foursquare! But great idea - installed it now : )

This will be added in the future, when the profile website will be available.

Oh - and maybe some sort of friendsystem or social integration?

Edit: Nevermind... Saw your post now :p
New thing though - You should hide what makes the achievement unlock - and only show descriptions, so that the exploring is more fun!

I turned on the app at my house and almost got the first altitude achievement! Haha, love this app, such a simple idea that I am sure was a pain to program! I love all the devs that put everything into their apps for me to enjoy!
