Even though its primary designed for runners Marathon can be used with all kinds of outdoor activities.
Any suggestions/constructive feedback is welcome . The application is currently translated to: English, German, French, Spanish, Dutch, Italian and Swedish.
Key features:
• Records speed, distance, calories consumed, climb/decline, etc.
• Shows charts of speed and altitude change.
• Draws your route on a map.
• Share your results online, on your blog, Twitter or Facebook.
• Earn achievements for your training (Not related to Xbox LIVE achievements).

Wow, it looks really good and seems to be very fingerfriendly.
I think it fits well into the Metro style.
Only thing to criticize: The touch input to raise and lower the weight for example (Video min: 1:33) could be done a bit nicer I think.
As example you could do it the same way it's done in the OS.
Here a video (min 7:21): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSoEhHV5BFU
Just one thing: In the beginning and the end you can see that the title of your app is Marahon and not Marathon. Just a little thing to fix
Regards
Sry for my english, hope you understand what I mean.

Looking good!
Although in some places the UI is a bit confusing, such as in the video at 0.26 where you have Goals Goals as the pivot and Open Open, why is this? as its not clear from the video. You also see this again later in the video with Edit Edit and Twitter twitter etc.
Also at 2.13 it's not clear that you can swipe to the right to see Calibration settings as its not hinted in the pivot
Other than that, I think it looks very cool

Yeah I agree with the Goals Goals and Open Open thing. Perhaps the second word can be grayed out shadow in the background isntead of looking like there is more.
Other than that it looks great, definately something I can use this fall when I start walking/jogging outside.

It looks great.
I'm currently using a similar application (RunSat) on WM, which has two features you might want to add. I personally love both of the listed features, so you could consider whether adding them is worth the effort.
Exporting results to excel / a spreadsheat is something I really like (showing three columns: time, speed, average speed. Could consider adding more). If you have multiple times on the same course, you could have column 1 trough 3 for your first, 5 trough 7 for your second, etc. so it's easy to compare your performance.
Another useful feature is auto-pausing the training when you're standing still (very useful if there's a bridge on the course). Not sure if you already support manual pausing, but that obviously can be useful too.
I'm already very familiar with the app I'm currently using, but I might consider switching to your WM6 app. For WP7 I'm pretty sure I'll get yours after seeing your demo!
Good luck with further development, I'm very happy to see another dev preparing for the WP7 launch

freeriders:
The numeric input panel you linked looks really sweet. I'll keep that in mind and see if I can make something similar .
DMAND/cyclical:
Sorry about the "Goals Goals" thing, I should have mentioned that it will not be there in the final release (it's there because I'm temporary using an open source Pivot control which doesn't support single pages, Microsoft will release their own Pivot control before the release. So I'm awaiting theirs before I invest too much time in making a "single page pivot lookalike".)
cPT.cAPSLOCK:
The WM6 app supports exporting to CVS (which you can open in Excel), I would add it to the WP7 app if I knew how to give the user his file . Since there's no traditional fileesystem you can't just save it. But since the WP7 app will be compatible with the webpage (www.marathon-mobile.net) you can always use the "Share" feature to upload the result to the webpage and then save it as kml/gpx/cvs from there.
Manual pausing is already supported, I want to implement auto-pause but I haven't done it yet since I'm not sure how to handle the noice in the GPS-signal in a proper way. But I guess I have to accept that the feature will work in ALMOST all cases.
Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Cool, I thought that might be the reason , hopefully the offical controls are released soon

What's the point?
I'm not sure there's any point in porting an app like this over to WiPhone7 when it can't run in the background. If you use your phone the app will be frozen, not to mention if you get a call or check a mail. Hopefully people remember to resume it after they're done. I can't even listen to Pandora or .977 or use a navigation app (not that there is one) at the same time, which is when I'd use it.
This app would be better ported to webOS which could actually handle it.

Hello,
I'm agree with freeriders concerning the numeric panel.
What do you use to realize charts ?
Thanks

gaijin1%
I'm a .NET developer and I find the WP7 platform interesting, so I'm porting this app to WP7 . Unfortunately I dont have enough spare time to port it to yet another platform, such as WebOS. Its possible to run under lock screen and as long as you stick to the built in music player you can listen to music while you're out running, and thats enough for me. I do agree that real multitasking would be neat, but this is not the tread to debate WP7 OS design .

I'm using Silverlight Toolkit (http://silverlight.codeplex.com/) for charting. It seems to work good, but I haven't received my real device yet, so I can't be sure the performance is OK.
Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks a lot for the toolkit
Me too, I haven't received my real device :S

I've released another video, its available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vldm4WVguLk
Unfortunately I haven't had the time to improve the touch controls for numeric inputs (such as weight), but it's still something I want to do . I also plan to move some more buttons down to the application bar and add some more stuff to the map.

Looks great, but i guess you have to think about a good background. I also think there are to much options, so it should be nice if they will be arranged in groups

This is great.
I am planning to get rid of my desire in favour of a new WP7 phone later this month and I have been thinking about ways to track my running activity while waiting for an app to do just that. Glad to see someone is already working on it. I am very much looking forward to give it a try!

It doesn't need to run in the background. Just Disable UserIdleDetection mode and some Tombstoning and phone calls will interrupt the app, but it will reload. I use Caliburn.Micro framework for WP7 apps, and it makes it really easy to do. Just be sure to Enable UserIdleDetectionMode when closed or tombstoned. This passes cert and is different from ApplicationIdleDetectionMode, which requires user opt-in.

As promised I've released a free version of the app, a link is available in the first post .

Nice app and get's it done in a very fluid manner. There are a lot of options to customize setup for individuals and such. One feature that would be nice to further add to the customization would be adding the ability to reorder the home screen (smaller items). Like current speed, average speed, decline, etc. For instance, I would like to be able to see (along with the most main items which you nailed..time and distance) calories and average pace when I just glance at my phone. As it is now, I have to swipe a little to see that row of information. My only suggestion is it's great as I said. And thanks a lot.

I've just released another update to the app (2.8). The biggest news is the ability to earn achievements (not xbox live) for your workout. Here's a list of the available achievements: http://www.marathon-mobile.net/Results/Achievements . Hopefully It'll help people get a little extra motivated to work out . Other news in 2.8 is FR/IT/NL/ES/SV voices as well as an auto-pause feature.
kwill: Thanks for the feedback, I've thought about letting the user re-organize the dashboard. But I haven't implemented anything like that yet.

Here's a little preview of the upcoming release: http://www.marathon-mobile.net/Info/Development
It'll enable Marathon to upload your results "live", so friends and family can watch the progress while you are out running . The feature will be available in both the free and premium version of Marathon and I'm targeting a release in early August (The feature is done, but I'm going on a vacation soon. So I'll keep it for a while ).

Version 3.0 is now available. It's been updated to Mango, so it supports fast app switching and 32bit colors.

feed me
feed me has been temporarily removed from the marketplace. I hope to get a new version out towards the end of the first quarter of 2012.
Details: http://www.wpcentral.com/feed-me-removed-marketplace
Full details: www.forty3degrees.com/apps/feedme
When I first got my HTC Mozart I looked for an rss reader but couldn't find one that suited. RSS Central from Adam Dawes came close, but still didn't quite have the structure I was looking for. I always like to look at my subscriptions in groups. If I am tracking two or three blogs related to the same thing then I don't want to have to look at all three seperately. I just want to look at the newest entries from all of them together. So I got to work, and feed me is the result.
Please give feedback about any missing features or possible improvements.
There is currently no video of version 1.11 as I am spending all my spare time getting a mango version up and running.
Here's a video of Version 1.11:

Visit the site for more info and feel free to PM me if you have any questions

Calum you are a legend, looks great.

just a quick update...
I'm on holiday for a week and am doing the last few bits for the next update... Just got the last bits of live tiles to go, then the tests and it's done.
For the live tiles I will show the total number of new items since the last time the app was open (like the stock e-mail app). You will be able to select which feeds are used for live tiles, so certain feeds with frequent updates can be excluded.
This won't work for backdated items. For example, BBC likes to post items that are backdated to yesterday, these will not be seen as new as the publish date is older than the date of the last refresh.
Feeds included in the live tiles update will always be updated on startup.
Let me know what you think.
I have also set up a page on facebook. And you can follow progress on twitter.

So I've finished the next update... here are a few of the new features:
A live tile showing the number of new items. This is restricted to showing the total of a maximum of 5 feeds at the moment (or 1 in trial mode). I hope to increase or remove this limit but I want to see how the server handles things first. The tile can be updated in 10, 15, 30 or 60 minute intervals.
You can now add a feed from your google reader subscriptions. They are shown in a flat list similar to the feed search in the current version.
I now check the http headers for feeds before downloading. If the 'last-modified' header is present and the feed has not changed then the download is cancelled.
I added a pivot to the start page. Now you can swipe from the list of feed groups to a list of all the new items (these are grouped for easy browsing).
There is a backup and restore function for the feed settings. This backs up the settings to a SQL server so you can restore even after a factory reset. In this version an anonymous device ID is used so you don't need to log in.
I have also improved caching and done quite a bit of work on performance. The limits for the trial version have been increased to 4 groups of max. 4 feeds.
Unfortunately I have had to do away with backwards compatibility for the settings. This means that all settings in the previous version will be lost. I really didn't want this, but due to the live tile implementation, backup and cache management I had to change the storage format for the settings. The main problem is that it is impossible for me to simulate an upgrade as a developer so I couldn't event try to implement a settings upgrade. This is quite annoying and I hope microsoft will do something about it, but at the moment all I could do was add the google reader support mentioned above, and ensure this never happens again due to the new backup/restore feature.
This only really affects the few paid versions out there (unfortunately, or fortunately in this case the actual number is pretty small). Trial versions won't update so you need to uninstall it before installing the new version - this is another microsoft 'feature'.
I will post a full list of changes on the forty3degrees.com website after the update hits the market. This should be towards the end of next week. I have decided to run the final build on my phone for the weekend as there is not point in submitting tonight (nobody will start testing it until monday morning anyway), and you never know... there may just be a bug or two still lurking

V1.2 just got published... a load of improvements and new features.
Check out forty3degrees.com for all the details.

Just submitted the next version. A few bug fixes but a nice new 'tweet article' feature as well. The new version supports all the European and Middle Eastern encodings I could find (I will post the full list as soon as the app is certified)

Feed me version 1.3 has been published to the marketplace. This version has Twitter integration, improved encoding support and a few fixes. See the site for details:
http://www.forty3degrees.com/apps/feedme

Hey i've been trying out your app for a day or two now, seems to work great so far. If its something i find myself using often, I'll be sure to buy it (first time using an RSS reader, so I don't know how useful it will be for me). Also, I'll let you know if I notice anything/have any suggestions

Thanks for the feedback. Feel free to pm me if you have any questions/ideas.

Version 1.4 is out.
- Podcast support
- Instapaper/Read it later
- Run under the lockscreen
Details here

Nice looking app. With the podcasts, can they be downloaded to be listened to later or do they have to stream? I like being able to download several episodes via WiFi and then listen to them even if I have no data connection or if I have a bad connection.
Thanks

Just streaming in this version... I did think of doing a download, but it didn't make the deadline
I will add this to my todo list, and it will almost certainly make it into the next version. I just need to sort out the cache management for the downloaded media, or see if I can add them to the media library. Would you want the media to be available in the media library, or just in the app?
On a related note, I wasn't really sure if I should add the viewed media to the media player history. In the end I decided against it. Any thoughts?
Thanks for the feedback.
Calum

I don't really need it to show anywhere other than from withing the app. I have been doing podcasts through Zune right now and one thing that I don't like is that once I listen to a podcast it just sits there. It gets marked as listened to within Zune and I can delete it, but I kind of like having them just go away. This might be good as a user setting.

Yeah, I thought that too. I prefer them to disappear as well, and this happened to be easier to implement as there are extra certification requirements if I add them to the history.
I think I'll go with the setting for V1.5 with no history as the default. Thanks again for the feedback.

Thanks a lot for the app calum. It's really fast and nice. Especially the animations and such. I haven't seen one (and I've tried them all and still use Flux) and this one gets it about perfect as for look and feel. One thing I have seen that I'm not sure you could have implemented is a tile view for articles, showing them as an image. That's the one thing I really like about flux (as you've already got the other best part..categores), is the overall look when you go into it. Don't want to make you a copycat, just that one option would be great. Or at least an "HTML view" like Feedreader has. That gives the app that last piece of visual appeal. As the rest of it is perfect. Thanks once again as for right now you make it tough for me to choose between this and Flux.

Hi,
thanks for the feedback. I did think about switching to a panorama with images for the main page, although I would add a setting to allow the current main page to be used instead. Good to know that somebody would like this sort of view
Adding images to the article lists would slow things down too much. Scrolling performance would be pretty bad with more that 50 items. (I still don't have NoDo so don't know if it's any better with that...)
I am working on an update for this week, but it will not change the UI much (maybe a new transition for the main page... don't know yet). The main improvements will be podcast downloads and hopefully facebook integration (time permitting - the update needs to be submitted this week to try a fix a marketplace search bug... feed me doesn't turn up at the moment).
Thanks again for the feedback
Calum

Yep, someone does want it (tile view) as that is one thing that stands out about the rss readers on WP7. Flux has seemed to integrate it quite nicely and I believe it's achieved because it has an option to automatically load more items or not. And it only loads 6 tiles initially to keep scrolling smooth for the most part. I like the main page as it is, and having a tiled view of what's new on to the side of that would be cool also. Well, looking forward to any updates for sure and good luck with continued development.

feed me 1.5 is out.
You can now download podcasts. You can also pause the downloads and resume them later (they are paused automatically when exiting the app).
I also added some new animation for the page transitions. I'd be really interested in any feedback as to whether it still keeps the clean look... if not then you can disable them in the settings.

[APP] SC2Casts Free (Watch Starcraft 2 vods) -[U]- August 5th 2011 -[V]- 1.3

Just wanted to share a project I've been working with SC2Casts.com, that lets you watch Starcraft 2 vods from the site.
There are currently thousands of vods up there, with players like Idra, White-ra and recent dreamhack winner Huk. (dreamhuk!) And more videos are added daily.
New in 1.3:
*Youtube HD/HQ fix (google changed something)
*Recent list bug fix
*Improved error handling
*Automatic fallback to HQ when playback of HD videos fail
*Improved cache, should improve load times.
*Minor bugfixes and design cleanup.
Features:
*Recent section - displays the top 20 matches from today/yesterday
*Top section - displays the top 20 matches from either last 24 hours/week/month or all time.
*Search - there's a search button in the top right corner that lets you search for players/casters/events
*Browse section - let's you browse by player/casters/event or matchup
*Favorites - add any match to your favorites list, easily displayed on the first page
*Mediaplayer - a fully customized mediaplayer that lets you toggle the quality HQ (360p) / HD (720p) (u can also set defaults at the settings page)
The matches are displayed in a way that doesn't spoil the results of a set.
You can also Like or Dislike any set, those are updated directly to the site as well.
This is the free ad-supported version, but it has all the same features as the full version.

Looking forward to hear some feedback/comments.

Fantastic app! I registered just to post my feedback. As a SC2 player, its great to be able to now have all the vods in one instead of me having to search/browse youtube apps. The fact that I'm able to browse by player, caster etc makes this even better. Good job mate.

Thanks man, really appreciate the feedback. Got some more cool stuff planned for Mango as well.

Looking forward to it mate. Watched the WCG qualifiers here in Sydney. Moonglade dominated. Keen to see what you have in store for Mango. Keep us updated!

Missed the WCG qualifiers, so many tournaments and streams out there, gogo esports.
Currently watching some HomestoryCup, stream link is up at teamliquid, Naniwa just beat MC for a spot in the finals.
I'll definitely add the ability to download matches locally, might do it before Mango if it's too far away.

Been waiting for this app! Thanks Nudua, just downloaded and paid for it, it's looking great

Cheers, working on the 1.1 update atm, adding a refresh button to the recent and top section also fixing some minor bugs.

Small downtime on the server, really sorry about that, will be up again shortly.
edit: Seams to be sorted now, there was a slight problem with the hosting provider

great app!
I have just started using it. I will give you much better feedback in a few days.. but so far so good!

There seams to be a bug when playing back HQ/HD videos atm, so just use LQ for now, I've submitted an update so it should be up in a few days.
Update on the 23 of July 2011:
The 1.1 update for the paid version is out now that fixes the video playback issues for HD/HQ.
The free version is still in certification, not sure why since I've submitted them at the same time.
If you can't see the update just search for SC2Casts in the marketplace and there should be an update button there, again sorry for the trouble
Update on the 26th of July 2011:
Another update regarding the free version, there was a bug with the certification so I've had to resubmit it.
Just use the Trial version of the Paid version for now if u can't wait.
I pushed out the latest build for this update, so it includes the ability to refresh the recent list and automatic fallback to HQ when playing HD videos with some other minor fixes.

Version 1.3 should be out now, which addressed the "unexpected errors" due to youtube changing something in their code. Also improved the error handling greatly and will start working on the Mango version shortly.

great application, thx

1) That's kinda strange, the update has been live for nearly 2 weeks now. Have u tried restarting your phone to clear the marketplace cache? Or tried to install it via the Zune software. Free version Zune link | Paid version Zune link I would also uninstall the old version first.
2) You got to have the Microsoft Youtube app installed in order for it to work, that has to go via IE first to use LQ. You'll need the 1.3 version for the app to work fully with the integrated video player due to youtube changing their "api".
I hope that helps, if not let me know which marketplace region u are using, since it might be a problem on Microsoft's side.

[APP] Week Calendar [R] 09/19/11 [U] 04/12/12 [V] 2.0

hello devs,
I just finished my first round with Week Calendar: I always used to organize myself by looking at week calendar views, either on Outlook, PalmOS, WM6.5 or iPhone (3rd party apps). I missed it on WP7, that's why I developed this app. Week Calendar reads Phone Appointments from your defined accounts, the same read by standard Calendar app, although it is a separate app. I've put all of my efforts to follow the Metro UI style of WP7 Calendar. I also added a tile with a nice graphical preview of current week appointments: hope you like it.
Week Calendar is available on the Marketplace at €0,99 with a trial edition. it requires Mango to run. the app is available in English, German and Italian.
I'm looking for Spanish and France translations: PM me if you are interested to arrange a contribution (just a few strings to translate, nothing special).
there's a video on youtube, search for "week calendar wp7": I'll add a link here whenever xda will permit me.

version 2.0 is now available! it features a new search function and the ability to choose which accounts to use.
this is the complete changelog:
•[fix] sometimes settings were not saved
•[fix] improved rendering of an event; no more confusion between click for appointment details and swipe gesture.
•[fix] private appts lacks 'private' label in the grid event
•[fix] removed limit of 100 appointments retrieved for each week
•initial screen removed (I prefer this way…)
•dialog to send email in case of errors removed (totally unuseful in my opinion)
•new appointments search function, with time interval and accounts selection
•new Accounts pane in Settings: choose the accounts to use and their colors
•week grid adjusts its initial position basing on current time
•new 'Show private appointments' option
•now the tile filters events basing on selected appointments
•Improved rotation and related effects
there is more to improve, so support this app giving positive feedbacks! follow me on twitter @WeekCalendarWP7.

if only some Strings, i can help you with german.
PM me if interested

Hmm... No synchronization with Outlook? No integration with the other built-in tools? BTW, who needs that kind of calendar?.. As for me, the great advantage of WP7 is not a fancy Metro UI but perfect integration of industry standard business tools.

thank you for your feedback, it let me clearly state that Week Calendar reads Phone Appointments, the same read by the standard Calendar app.

PM me if you'd like a danish translation.

hi WMD I sent you a PM.

I love the idea of this app. I've always felt there was something lacking from the wp7 calendar after leaving my BlackBerry, and I think this may be it.
I only downloaded the trial, but from my limited use I have a couple of ideas:
-If possible, it would be nice to turn off birthdays. Since they are full-day events they take up a ton of space in the week view, especially if more than one occur on the same day.
-An option to display the header dates in MMDD format (Week of Sep 25 - Oct 1 2011). Being an American I find it odd to see dates in the other format.
-An option to start the week with Monday (ad end with Sunday. I really wish the built-in calendar had that option.
-If possible, offer some kind of "compressed view" similar to the live tile to see the week at a glance without scrolling. (I might be an oddity in this since my shifts at work range over all parts of the day throughout the week- some days morning, others night.)
Anyway, I dig the app, I'll keep using it, and I just might have to buy it

hi hammerhand,
thank you for your feedback.

I resolved by disabling such calendar from Live Calendar directly. don't you think it's enough?

this will be fixed - tought it won't be an option - on v1.2 (v1.1 is already on certification).

Week Calendar reads the system setting about this. overriding it by a single app is discouraged, however I'll add it to the wishing list and see if some other asks the same.

leave a comment on the marketplace also, it's really useful!

Thanks for this app - I bought it immediately. Couple of things, after 10 minutes of use:
1. I second the need to suppress birthdays, or perhaps all-day events in general. And I don't use the Live calendar, using Exchange. Please make this an option?
2. It would be nice to be able to control the number of days to display - now you can choose between 5 or 7 (weekends), why not 2 or 4 days.
3. Option to use 24-hour format (I'm Dutch) would be nice: 18 instead of 6PM.

I like seeing the birthdays in the native calendar, but the all day event takes up a lot of room on the week calendar. Maybe if they can't be turned off, could their display color be made to match that in the calendar settings? That said, I disabled birthdays in the calendar settings so I'll see how it goes.

future version will have an option to show allday events on top of a day, I think this should satisfy most users.

next version 1.1, which is currently under certification, will follow "24-hour clock" format set in wp7->settings->date+time.

You seem to anticipate my every wish Matrello
Did anyone already ask for week numbers? I would like that.
Let me also congratulate you on one of the most informative live tiles I have seen so far!

Thank you... Just spread the word all over!

I notify you that v1.1 is now available on the marketplace. I struggled a lot with the certification process... I hope next versions to be available sooner.
now I'm busy with next release. follow me on Twitter @WeekCalendarWP7.

Just found this application and loving it.
Thank you.

Hi. I have not yet downloaded your app.
Does it have a search function?

hi micha,
not yet but search functionality is planned for one of next versions. now WC is v1.2 and v1.3 development is in progress.

Week Calendar displaying the word "personal"
Hello,
I purchased and use Week Calendar. In the beginning things were okay. But now the word "personal" is on some bars and the entire day is grayed out with this word on top, like the whole day is "personal" How can I get rid of this? Before, things looked much neater in the live tile display. But now the live tiles seems to indicate the whole day is filled with events. But when I check it all it shows is the word "personal" on top and the entire day grayed out or colored. Please help. Thanks.

hi sanctemichael,
these are personal (private) appointments. next WC version will have an option not to include such appointments. I am quite busy but I am going to release it as soon as possibile. please follow me on twitter @WeekCalendarWP7.

Thanks
Thanks for your reply. Can't wait for the next version!
