MindPADD, a non-minimal launcher for minimal phone use
Maybe some of you already know me from the discord server. I made some different apps for the MindOne one of which a camera app. And i also made a launcher that works great on the device, and is adapted now to work on any.
So after receiving my mindone i started working on a non-minimalist launcher for android for digital minimalists like myself. this sounds like a contraduction but i've build a type of field gear that makes it possible to go back to life outside my smartphone.
I find some stuff important myself: not having to go through many apps, not spending much time on notifications and maybe most importantly not spending a lot of time looking for places around when i look for something specific in a place ive never been.
I called the concept MindPADD (based on Personal Access Display Devices from startrek :')). I've been using the app for many months now myself and did some incremental updates to stuff that didnt work well. I would like other to be able to use it, so i'm applying for some playstore testing (android). and I would love to hear what you all think or would add or remove
what it has till now: notifications on homescreen, media player/controls, something i call grindr for places (parks, bars, culture, book shops and libraries, atms etc close to you with quick navigation), habit tracker and interstitial journaling, widgets
I need some testers for the Play Store, so let me know if you would like to test it, since then i can add your to the tester list 🙃
Selling my white MindOne and yellow keyboard case
$400 for both. Will ship within the US. DM if you're interested.
Keyboard layout mismatch ? Long press and weird behavior
Hello, I just received my yellow qwerty keyboard. So far the impression is good, the phone now feel finished and usable.
However, I'm having issue with some aspect of the keyboard:
- the user manual say that doing a long press on key should show special characters, but this is not true, it just repeat the key like a pc keyboard.
- some keys are not mapped correctly, for example the v and b keys shows : and ; respectively, however they both input ; for some reason. To input : I have to press the ?123 key then shift then v then shift. Then to leave, ?123 again and finaly Shift... to be able to type normal letter again
- there is no visual indicator when entering the special char or Fn layout, It's very very annoying
- From time to time a key will be repeated for ever, eg hhhhhhhhhhh until I press another key
- pressing the fn key make the keyboard layout goes banana, example here is the first row in Fn mode: 312390--=2
So I guess there is a configuration issue ?
