[App] My Workout

Hey guys, as some of you may know, i've been working for a while now on my app, My Workout.
Here is the description of My Workout:
"My Workout allows you to save your workout routines to an easy to access, easy to read schedule. My workout also has a stopwatch included for rest time between sets and a 1 rep max calculator. Important tools for the gym!

}
I've been a busy coder on this one.
Recently i've added the following features:
Ability to import exercises from previously entered routines
and just now The Ability to share your workout (export) via email!
Currently the app in the market is version 1.5.0.0 and works really well, it however doesn't have the last two additions.
Build 1.7.00 will include both of these. I am currently waiting for build 1.6.00 to be approved (that includes the import exercises from previous exercise) feature and unfortunately for the testers will be immediately submitting 1.7.00 for approval.
The app is free, check it out and give a review.
Here are some videos of some of the older builds:

Update added to market!

- free as always.

Beautiful!
Would have liked to see an option for using metric units as well (Kg vs LBS). I'm living in Europe where we use the (logical) SI-system.
Good work!

Thanks for the comment! I'll add the option for metric units in the next update.

updated to support KG. Also allow for a total reset of saved routines.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for this! I work out 4 days a week and this will be great to use

Welcome, i'm glad i could help out a fellow gym member.

Ok guys, this is getting a little frustrating..
I need people to try my app out and give me some feedback.
This is the most recent feedback:
Godless Biker:
"Feels like a placeholder for an app that actually does something"
I am not sure how to even take that...
When i read something like that this is what goes through my mind (biased of course since i wrote the app)
1. Did they even read the description????
2. Did they even attempt to use the app???
3. Do they even know how windows phone 7 ui works?
4. Im surprised they were able to rate the app seeing as though they weren't competent enough to use it. (sorry, anger..)
It's frustrating that i am unable to know why they think that way.
So i am asking you guys. Please if you workout at the gym please give the app a try and give me some feedback. Comments like Godless Biker's are completely useless and quite frankly id be surprised if he really actually used the app......
If you want to just try it out and give me feedback please do:

thx for sharing

Thanks. It's really help me in training.

Possible Suggestion: With exporting the workouts, is it possible to save to SkyDrive? They have some new APIs, so it would be nice if the files can be saved and retrieved from Skydrive account.

Wow, im surprised this is still getting interest. Unfortunately i abandoned this project a while ago due to poor code design by me. ( learned much since then ) I no longer have the source code but if the interest is there i could possibly re-write this app with some mango features and possibly skydrive support. I wrote this app to help me with my workouts at the gym, but i have frequently found my self simply using word / excel to track my workouts.

this is not my app, but i never saw it here and a search didnt pop it up, so maybe some of you dont know it. i dont see why ms would bann it, but yeah, if you interrested in the story check his website:
http://smartypantscoding.com/R_I_P_-Imagewind-for-Windows-Phone
but i love the app!
design is perfect
function is always good to kill some minutes
basicly it will show you all pictures that are posted on twitter at the moment.
it does that with sleek animations and you can always digg deeper into the content.
where the picture can be viewed like you would want it on a touchscreen.
one more time i have to say, awesome design!
not like those "i just started programming 99cent apps"
this is really worth checking out, only available via xap sideload...
download here:
http://imagewind.net/wp7/
also dont miss the silverlight webapp over here:
http://imagewind.net/
awesome stuff!!!​

this is cool! thanks. i dont like twitter but i like this haha

oh good i've found it, thanks! works perffect!

app slowed to a crawl
Have been using this app for around a month now and i must say its great fun, almost hypnotic. However yesterday the picture generation started to run slowly, then crawl, now it takes around 5 mins per line to populate.
So has anyone else experienced this behaviour from the app? does anybody know if the development is still going with the app or if there is a newer version than the one posted here?
FYI i have uninstalled the app and reinstalled to no avail and i have tried to contact the developer via the web page comments section but the Capture window does not work and so i cannot leave a comment.
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Creamy

I can't download the xap file.

There you go:

OK so I have no idea if SmartyPantsCoding is still supporting this, but the app has slowed down because it can't see most of the image URLs on twitter anymore.
Twitter has started shortening ALL URLs on it's service automatically using the t.co service. This means the app cant search the timeline for items with pictures in them (at least not without some re-coding) tho for some unknown reason, tweetphoto links still work. These might be the only links twitter doesn't shorten.
This sucks for us who liked the phone app (and the website imagewind.net) but it means Twitter can now get analytics info, which I gather they have now made available......

nice App
Thanks

Its been re released and is working nicely on my Mango HD7. I doubt it will make it to the marketplace again so here is the Xap
Kind Regards,
Creamy

Anyone happen to have a version 1.2 xap ? Ver 1.1 doesn't work, and 1.3 (above) doesn't support Twitter.
1.2 is supposed to do both Twitter & Flickr. I'm not sure it's past the url issues that broke 1.1, just thought I'd ask if it's out there. Thanks.
EDIT: The above xap does have an option in setting to switch to "unsafe" mode, which pulls pics from Twitter. Works flawlessly. My bad.

thanks, great find!

[GAME] Banzai Birds - [R] - 2011/07/21 - [V] 1.0.0.0

My new game Banzai Birds has hit the Windows Phone Marketplace, and the best news is that I have decided to make it free!
The first episode consists of 20 challenging levels of dodging, diving and fleeing (from evil owls) each testing your timing and reflexes using the accelerometer .
Two additional episodes updates are to follow, each with 20 levels, gameplay updates and new graphics.
I'm taking suggestions for improvements for the next episodes so if you have any cracking ideas lets have them!
thanks all!

I couldn't find it in the marketplace, so I followed your link. Is it not available in the EU (Germany)? I can't download it ("Download" never appears on my phone).

Yes it's really annoying. Microsoft's new publishing system requests a Content Rating for submitted apps for each country you want to publish to. not all countries require a rating, unfortunately Germany is one.
if you can side load go here...
http://www.mobileleaderboards.com/sire-assemblies/BanzaiBirds.rar
If you like it please review.
thanks!

Why, thank you. That is some good information to have. I'll sideload your game later, probably.
By "requests content rating", what exactly do you mean? How do you get your content rating? Will this mean that games will come delayed to those markets? Does MS offer this "service" to its developers, or do you have to get it yourself?

I need to read up on it a little more to see what I need to do / get around it.
Here in the UK we have U rating for kids and 18 rating for adult content but its not a requirement for games hence I could sell my unrated app in the UK.
I guess Germany requires a rating of some sort for games?

Yes, in Germany you need to have a USK Rating on games you sell (0, 6, 12, 16, 18), but I never knew this was needed for "digital distribution" as well.
Anyways, afaiu, the USK rating board has to review your game and, at least that's how it seems to me, this takes several months... But I am not too familiar with the whole process, so I can't tell for sure. Surely, MS must provide you with information about this... I just hope this is not the end of games for my WP7 because they'd make it hard for developers to get the rating..?
EDIT: I now checked the USK Site. Currently, games can only obtain a USK rating if they are provided on physical media (DVD, CD etc.), not digitaly distributed games (allthough, they can get the rating as well, if they are additionally provided on physical media). They are *planning* to extend this to "non-physical" games, but haven't yet done so... So, not sure what I should make of that.

http://forums.create.msdn.com/forums/t/87527.aspx
Looks like it could be a while. Ridiculous really Germany is a good source for downloads

Thanks all for your suggestions.
I have upgraded Banzai Birds now at V1.1, changing the initial level designs, new graphics and better parachute control.

Cloud Storage Services

Hey ladies and gentlement!
As I'm already recognized a high resonance via G+, I thought I'll start a OT-Thread here related to the topic
- Free Cloud Storage -
As for sure a lot of ppl has another priority and subjectiv opinion on different cloud services,
but I think we all are fair and reational enough to share our meanings without treating other meaning or ppl here.
So I'll start with my own experience and opinion:
In my opinion the realtiv new cloud storage of 'Copy' is one of the best cloud storage service,
which offers a really great android app, too.
The app also was re-designed some weeks ago and it's quiet intuitive and more looking good.
I'm personally also a Google fan and so for sure using G-Drive, too, but anyway for general daily cloud handling I use this at all.
'Copy' also let u create a synchronisation folder which gives the opportunity to share and edit things in a kind of group.
So I personally learned to use this in my job when working on a project, so that other project-partners could see when I put in new files
and themselves could view & edit them if they want. Also they could just put in their own files, so that I can see it.
Over this you can give different rights, for what anyone can to in this folder.
(I think that's enough explained for synchronisation folders)
Let's go ahead to the most sensitive point in nowadays "Security".
So to let's say first, that there is no 100% safe cloud service and surly will never be!
So we all have to trust the service and can orientate here on the security standards they offer.
'Copy' that for uses a part for the connection and one for the encryption of data to/on their servers.
The connection is here saved by the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) standard
and the data encryption by the AES256 (Advanced Encryption Standard)
Even their are other possibilities and the SSL could be the updated TLS standard, this is one of the highest "daily" protection standard.
[I don't want to get off from topic here, so let's say that there are more higher security standard, but u have to think in relative terms here!]
In the app u also have the opportunity to set a PIN, to secure the entry in app, even the phone won't have one.
At this point I hope I don't forget any important points, otherwise just ask and let me know...
Again this is for sure a objective view on things, so please let me know what u guys think and share your meanings and recommandation of cloud storage services.
CHEERS

With the link below u get 20GB [5GB to the 15GB] free storage on 'Copy', because I invited you.
So if u want to test it or saying "yes this listen like what I searched for", just register via it,
than 5GB more, are better than not or?

PS: Yes I also get 5GB free if u use this link, but anyway this shouldn't be a big advertisement, just a recommendation.
