[APP][Update 2012/08/08] Money is time

Tricky-Design · May 30, 2011

Hi People,

I recently started writing apps for Android and I'm very curious what you think of my first app.

A little while ago I was eating a candy bar from the vending machine at work, and I was wondering how many minutes I actually had to work in order to be able to pay for that candy bar. At that moment, I came up with the idea to make an money to time converter.

Money Is Time

Features

Money to time conversion
Time to money conversion
User friendly interface by picker wheels
Supports money up to 99,999.99
Supports up to 24 currency signs like; $, £, € and ¥
Supports time up to about year
Supports both 24/7 scale or working hours
Stopwatch mode where time and money are incremented automatically.
Timer mode where time and money are decremented automatically.
Ability to set the wage per hour / day / week / month
Supports both portrait as landscape view.
Wake lock implemented

Thank you very much for your feedback!

Great idea! It would be cool if you could enter weekly or hourly wage information and if you could both swipe numbers to change them as well as tap on the selected numbers to enter them on a keypad.

Thanks for the QR code! makes it so easy to get the app

Thanks people for your feedback and positive comments so far!

At this moment I've received the following feature requests:
- Ability to fill-in weekly or hourly wage information.
- Ability to choose between swipe or just enter the numbers via the keypad.
- Ability to reset both money and time to zero with a button.
- Ability to set custom currencies.

I'm really gonna work on the items listed above and hope to upload an upgrade sometimes soon.

If there are more requests bugs or just sometime you want to share about this app, please let me know. I'm very curious what you think about this app!

@psycho_maniac: You're welcome, I really appreciate it when people want to help me improve my app. Posting a QR code is the least i could do

Really Creative

Wonderful app. I think if you can make the app run on its own according to a particular setting, will be a good idea. Just a thought.

Nice idea for an app

but have a bug. I run a screen density of between 180 and 200 and the app don't like this

screen shot was taken at 200 screen density.

Feature request:

It would be fun if you could set an amount, per hour/day/month/etc, whichever really, and start the timer. While the timer is ticking, you'd see the money wheel ticking live how much you make each second. And even if you exit the app and start it again a couple of hours later, the app remembers the time/date you exited it, reads the current time and adjusts the sum that you've made so far.

Hi

Thanks for finding this bug. It's very strange, because it looks like android can't decide what screen it is LDPI MDPI HDPI.

On which device and android version did you encounter this problem? My emulator with 200 DPI does show the app correctly.

Thanks a lot!

Thank you both, that is indeed a fun feature. I will look if I can implement this in the next version or not.

I can't seem to find this app on the market

It is difficult to find on the market because money and time are both normal words, but if you search on "money is time" between quotes you'll find it or just use the link in the first post or in my signature

Thanks in advance for downloading

I did both of those things before posting

Hmmzz, that's weird, maybe there was a hick-up on the android market. Is it still not working when you click on the link?

I just checked and everything here worked as it should.

Options for the timer function

I'm currently busy updating my app with most of the requests I've received.

Tricky-Design · Jul 3, 2011

Version 2.0

I've released version 2.0 today and added the following requests:
- Ability to fill-in weekly or hourly wage information.
- Ability to reset both money and time to zero with a button.
- Ability to set custom currencies. (I've added 20 currency signs)
- Ability to run the app on its own.

I've also added a landscape view so it can be viewed in portrait and landscape instead of portrait alone. Besides adding landscape view I've paid extra attention to the layout to support as much resolutions as possible.

I hope you like the new version! Comments, bugs requests are still more than welcome!!

Version 2.1

I've released version 2.1 and added the following requests:
- Ability to fill-in daily or weekly wage information.
- Timer mode where money and time is automatically decremented.
- Support of HD phones and tablets.

Besides releasing the free 2.1 version I've released a paid version which has;
- No advertisements
- Ability to set a notification sound / vibrate when the timer reaches 0.

I hope you like the new versions! Comments, bugs requests are still more than welcome!!
