I built an Android app called Recurlo that lets you create reminders based on real-world context instead of just time.
Most reminder apps can tell you when something should happen.
Recurlo can tell you when AND where AND under what conditions it should happen.
You can create reminders using 6 trigger types:
📍 Location (arrive, leave, stay in an area)
• 🎧 Bluetooth (connect/disconnect from headphones, etc.)
• 📶 Wi-Fi (home, office, or any network)
• 🔋 Battery status
• 🚶 Activity (walking, running, driving etc )
• ⏰ Traditional time-based reminders
And you can combine them using AND / OR conditions.
Examples:
• (At supermarket) → Buy milk
• (At gym AND Bluetooth headphones connected) → Start workout
• (Connected to home Wi-Fi AND Evening) → Take out the trash
• (Leaving office AND Driving) → Play podcast
• (Battery below 20% AND At home) → Charge phone
• (Near destination OR Connected to train Wi-Fi) → Wake me up
You can build simple reminders or surprisingly complex automations without creating scripts or using Tasker.
Everything stays on your device, no account required.
It's now live on Google Play and I'd love feedback from Android users on what trigger combinations you'd find useful.

New design system just dropped, I call it Liquid Slop
Looks like Google forgot to train their AI on how Material works so prepare for a future of even more ugly iOS knock-off apps

It just makes perfect sense, I don't know why iOS devs don't get it

Introduce a new API, then deprecate it because it's bad. The Google Way™

Looking for app ideas for making some cash
Hello guys,
I want to know if any of you live off apps on Android, and have some ideas for niches or where to begin. I'm on sick leave from work and planning to focus on making some small, fast to produce apps to make some spare change over a long time.
Has anyone suceeded with this or have some ideas to focus on?
Any dev tips to what not to do would be awesome too

Can we have somewhat serious discussion once?
How is your job/apps revenue recently, how are you dealing with all the changes, are you feeling motivated to work?
9/10 Android devs I know were fired, my app revenue tanked both in numbers and by inflation, and making apps nowdays with ai feels way too bland, what's your take on current situation
Edit: I know this is a meme sub. I know about the other sub, so i knowingly posted here for all the reasons that we're all aware off

The AI craze lowkey makes me want to quit
I'm not for ditching any use of AI altogether but the way it's being used by people, by some colleagues (example: responding to PR comments with AI generated paragraphs which just waste my time.., or doing big refactoring to have "cleaner architecture" for no critical reason), and how some companies are pushing so hard to fully replace human beings with agents, is depressing.
I do like using AI to just code the exact implementation I'm asking it to do, so I'm still very much involved in the thought process and checking each step. But the PRs I start to see at work from people who are supposed to be senior engineers, make me realize that some are just not applying critical thinking anymore and just letting the agents do whatever as long as it looks kinda good and they're making the reviewers go through the pain of trying to understand the bullshit and catch regressions through the mess.
People are falling victim to the way AI speaks with such confidence even when completely hallucinating and it's terrifying.
It feels like people are in a collective psychosis and that it will not ever stop. It honestly makes me want to stop being an android developer, or at least stop being one at a company (perhaps try to finally make an indie app? but I'd have a better chance at making money as a barista).
Does anyone feel the same sense of dread lately or are you riding the wave just fine ? ...
(Sorry if this has already been talked before, I admit I haven't checked reddit in awhile and came back just to get feedback from other android devs)

I just want to take a moment...
... to admire the naming convention for ASs's version scheme.
So let's see, we have:
- an animal
- a major version
- a year
- an minor version (I think?)
- a patch version
- the word "patch"
- another patch version
Simplicity and elegance at its finest. Not confusing at all. Bravo.
