[cyrilp]

*Status Bar and more*

*SWApp Link dev update 0.934ic*

User can know choose to show the status bar. (i will add the possibility to disable the digital clock in the app)

This update will fix some issues:
* Duplicate notifications
* Clock Dial was off center
* Disabled action when no sim are not shown anymore (were only greyed out)
* Icon transfer between devices has been fixed, all icons are now displayed even if the app isn't localy installed.
* Remote App Launch icon is hidden if the app to remote launch list is empty (btw this icon is temporary, i will update it when i'll be back from holidays)

will this work if I pair this with my windows phone?thanks!

 

[porzerwolle]

Thanks for a great app!

Is anyone else having battery issues on their phones? With one of the last updates it is absolutely chewing through my battery especially if it cannot fine the Omate. Did not have this issue before one of the latest updates.

Thanks.

EDIT: also Select Applications to Listen to no longer seems to work yet Text Messages and Phone does. All over BT.

my battery is draining too. Since several days I have to load the battery 3 times a day. Back to 0933c, I will have a look on it.....

Sad to say that I am also experiencing a big battery drain with the latest version.

so the bluetooth connection is lost when both devices go into "deep" sleep mode.

is there a way to keep the connection alive even when in deep sleep mode or is this an issue with the stock rom?

 

[kuronosan]

No issues here.

I will receive my 1GB+8GB / 2010 MHz TS early next week. To summarize this post for every owner, which is your recommendation to start? Use the stock rom or burn other custom rom? Always thinking on use the TS as companion with the swapp link app.
I have a N5
Thanks for all

Congratulations for this great and powerful app. But Bluetooth connection is still buggy on my note 3 in connection with the aw-420 from pearl. I can`t get notofications to the watch on BT-mode? All options are activated and Push was fine until the last version, but in the current version there`s also no push function?

Wishes for the future: Full WhatsApp massages on the watch

Any chance we can get voice commands in the app? Something like Google now's "text dad what's going on?" And it texts without having to open app? Or tasker integration?

I use a Note 3 and the app works great, but sometimes it crashes both in my TS and my phone (not at the same time)
Battery consumption is good in both of my devices.

 

[porzerwolle]

I ve tested 0934ic today. Same issues as before, Even a little more worse, I cant get a first BT connection between phone and TS. Push isnt working in any way.

Battery consumption is very high, draining the TS battery in a few hours without any action.

TS is getting very slow and not reacting on commands or touches.

After deinstallation of the actual SWAPP Link, battery is not fine, but as usual. Reaction speed is much better.

Once again, the last "stable" version for me is 0933c with the push-only notifications.

Tested with ZOPO ZP980. Tried to install on a ZTE Blade with CM 4.1.2 but this phone refuses the app.

*Second Hand and Bugs fix*

*SWApp Link dev update 0.934id*

Just came back home from holidays.

*Custom AnalogClock*
Dealing with custom clock was actually more difficult then expected... Android provide an AnalogClock widget which i was using. but i discovered it can't get modified dynamically, dial and hands are defined in xml file and can't be modified
So i had to create my own AnalogClock view in order to be able to change them easily in my app.
Android AnalogClock widget doesn't provide a second hand, i have added it to mine.
I will be able to let you choose the clockface very soon.

*Bugs fix*
I have fixed 6 bugs in this release thanks to google bug report.
* a correction for duplicate notification in recent version had created a problem when using push, fixed
* bug fix in media player remote control
* app was crashing when using "map" feature on a device without google maps: now the app verify if it's installed and notify the user if it isn't
* 3 other bugs fix

Works great on my HTC M8 and the Simvalley smartwatch.
Bought the donation version. Thanks!!!

How can I get the dev versions?

 

[aeron16]

thanks for this! am testing it for a while using my Sony Xperia Z1 and my EU 1/8G 2100 Omate TS.

So far so good!

Going to use the bluetooth mode and test that

*Voice Control*

*SWApp Link dev update 0.935*

You can now enable *Voice Control*

When the app is listening the red mic icon will be displayed. The Android SpeechRecognizer is very unstable. when it crashes the icon disappear, if it's the case wait until it come back.
The listening is only active when the app is displayed, therefore there shouldn't be any problem with battery.
The implementation in only partial so far.

Key words on the main screen or clock screen:
Call : Remote Call
Text: Remote SMS
Play: Media player control
Find: Find my phone
Lock: Remote Lock
Location: Get GPS Location
Setting : Settings
Clock : Display the analog clock
Stop: Stop Listening

Key words on incoming notification: (not for call or sms notification so far)
Dismiss
Local : open app on local device
Remote : open app on remote device
Stop: Stop Listening

*Stay tuned, a LOT more to come...*

*ClockFace Selection*

*SWApp Link dev update 0.935b*

You can now choose the clockface (from settings).

The clocks in the list are real clock showing the actual time

I have more clocks to add.

Credits to +Daniel Ortiz and +Roy King for those first clockfaces.

If you want your own clockfaces added to the app, send me your files:

There is a slight bug: when you choose a new clock and come back from the settings the clock take some seconds to update. I will fix this, but i'm taking my GF to the cinema and wanted to send you this update before i come back.

Try using dragon. I'm able to use that to make voice commands to instruct skype to call people form my contract list. It also can read back information fully unlike google now. Took a bit of experimenting to get it to work right though. Damn fine app.
