Has anyone else been invited to use this software here in Incredible section? I got my invite the other day and FORGOT!:eek: that I had it till today. I am going to check out the app inventor section here in XDA but wanted to know if there was anyone closer to home with it?

I played with it a little, went through a couple tutorials. It works as advertised. When I get some free time I'll dig in deeper

The software works in 2 parts - a web app that handles the gui, and a java app that handles functionality and talks to the phone.

The java app is launched by the web interface, which you sign into with your gmail account. So, unless you have an invite, no go.

I always get my beta invites quick from Google. I think it has to do with the fact that I have been with them since 2004 with gmail. I got a Google Voice invote one day after a request last year, and a Google Wave invite within a few days last year. Or I'm just lucky.

Anyways, anybody have any good app ideas they want to see? I really want to get to know this software and have a few good ideas so far like a copy/paste section implemented in the drop down notifier. Where you can paste text or pictures for easy access to copy to another program, you wouldn't have to copy/paste one big section you could copy and paste to the notifications bar what you want and then paste them later. I also want to get a good Google Voice Text app that looks a little better than stock. What do you think?

All of you that have signed up but got no notice will want to try to login anyways as that is what I did. I signed up as soon as the announced it and tried yesterday even though I did not get a response saying I was invited and was able to login and play around for a bit.

I had a good idea for an app on BB when I was using it and I would still like it on android.... It is an alarm where to make it snooze you have to draw a pattern or put together a small puzzle to either turn off you're alarm or snooze.. I even had a good name that a dev from BB gave me "Snooze control" Feel free to make it if you want all I want is a free copy.

I got an invite when they first went out (I signed up the day they announced it.) I roll my own short URLs (similar to bit.ly but with my own 3 letter domain.)

With little coding experience to draw upon, I created a fully skinned app that connects to my API and shortens any URL I submit via the app. Pretty fantastic functionality and I only see it getting better as they get feedback on it and continue to refine the process.
