New version of Click to chat (V 5.2)

V 5.2
- Allow to keep default message (similar to default prefix)
- Donation version now uses the device color (standard version still uses the original green)
- Consistent icons
- Save/restore prefix on merged mode



 

I think this version has some bug, the logic is becoming pretty convoluted and it's difficult to think of all the possible interactions. Will be kept as beta for a week minimum.

There are some changes to the 'default prefix and message' functionality, but the probably most notable one is the consistent icons and colors. Now the donation version will use the device color (instead of that yellow) except on the icon. I may port that change to the normal version (or rather remove the green color, as now the device color is the default but the normal version overrides it) but for now I prefer the donation version to have a notable cosmetic feature.

Just in case: the only difference between the donation and the normal version is the app color (and the removal of the 'please donate' message). There are absolutely no differences in functionality, and they will never be.

New version of 'isUserAMonkey & isUserAGoat' -> 'AndroidSDK easter egg showcase' (V 2.0)

V 2.0
- Added 11 new easter eggs
- Changed app name and icon
- New layout



 

Motivation is a strange thing. Just one single comment was enough for wanting to update this 'experiment'.

Previously only the isUserAMonkey and isUserAGoat were present. I made this just because I found it funny, and didn't took me too long. I was aware of other easter eggs, but those two were 'just enough'.

If I was going to add a third one...why not 10 more?

 

So, yeah, the app was fully updated. There are now 13 easter eggs in total (all I could find) which go from simple constants to actions that require a custom service. Everything is explained and testeable, that's why I also renamed the app to 'showcase'. The icon was updated too!

And even so, I reduced the app requirement to (almost) android 1! Why? Just because.

 

Up until now the app have been downloaded a total of 859 (on Play Store, no idea about f-droid) so not a very popular app...but I like it, and if someone somewhere found it useful (and there are a couple positive reviews) then I'll find it a success.
