Re: [APP] Pure Ubuntu phone OS experience

Pulled?
Link is dead

This is from the developer of the app.
Hi, unfortunately the app got suspended from the market for infringing the content policy.
I already contacted them, i don't know what's gonna happen.
I might have to upload a new app with a different package, name, icon...

Re: [APP][1.6+] Ubuntu Phone Experience

I paid for Premium too. I hope he is able get back on the Play store. Works well worth Nova Launcher. I had to increase the sensitivity setting to strong on the Nexus 4, otherwise I couldn't pull out the side drawer.

The Dev probably has to change the name and some other stuff.

A very good app, but without premium it's pretty much useless. Why not make more features available in free version? Btw, it will be great to add an option to change app icons to custom ones, for example from gallery or some apex/nova icon packs.
Good job anyway, I'm looking forward a purchase.

Re: [APP][1.6+] Ubuntu Phone Experience

Any chance to move to right side of screen. Being left handed, when I scroll... I always bump it with my thumb, Lol. Awesome work good sir, keep it up. Lo e Ubuntu, this feeds my fix on my Note 2.

Also, it's not showing up in the Google Play Store, I needed to reinstall after some work I did. I just downloaded it from here, but thought you should know.

To move it to the right side of the screen.... no option, just looked. I have the paid version too, so I know I'm not losing my mind, Lol.

I still got no answer from them, so i'll change some stuff and upload a new app, hopefully they don't close this one too.
For the people who bought the premium, will have to re purchase the app if you want to, but if you contact me i'll refund the old one, no worries.
Sorry, i should have predicted this...

New names:

Pantry
Sidemyapps
Tacklebox

Re: [APP][1.6+] Ubuntu Phone Experience

No refund required, just concider the next purchase for the new one... an extra thank you for making this app. Also, I was kind of liking "Glovebox", it's original compared to most names referencing Android apps. Also, don't forget to let us know what name you do go with, if not Glovebox, Lol. Want to make sure I get this. Keep up the awesome work, and please add option to move to right side of screen. For I am a left handed fool.... in need of..... well, you get the point. Lol

    Hi everyone,

    Sorry for the time is taking to the update, it's a big one, i hope with most of the bugs fixed but with new features too, like recent apps.
    Here's a screenshot of how it looks like:

    Screenshot_2013-03-19-18-52-59.jpg

    It will have the same principle of lift the finger to select. Any feedback is appreciated.
    Thanks.
