I'd test it out but I'm using the android central app and it just takes me to the Google play homepage. :-(

Such a shame, it seems like the perfect app for me(angles and health stuff? Vegan machinist, are you sure the app wasn't made just for me? :p)

It seems to be a really cool app, but the list is sooo long! D: You might want to make things have little icons as opposed to list format, as well as giving the option to making shortcuts on your homescreen to those specific items(with that icon as opposed to just a generic one).

I think that would help users better utilize these apps. :)

EDIT: You might want to enable some sort of sound for when the alarm is up. I tend to work on things in my personal life with the 20/10 method, and I need to have a sound alarm when my 20 minute of working or 10 minute break is up- once that's implemented, I could see uninstalling my timer app.

Note, would be nice to be able to uninstall an extra barcode scanning app and just have one in this app. It relies on pushing you to another app, and even barcode apps will push you to yet another app(like browser) to find out more info. That's 3 layers, kinda thick to do one thing.

For definitions, perhaps a user should just be able to type in a word w/o having to select a certain dictionary site, and it just show you the definition from all sites?

And audio recorder, it needs an option to just record straight away. For someone in need of recording immediately(perhaps trying to record information to protect themselves or even a funny joke before they forget it), typing a name of the file seems like a hassle right off the bat.

For Weather, if we enter our ZIP code by default(by going into settings), why should we have to choose what kind of resident we are each time we go into that part of the application? Also, at least this part is giving me an "error processing request". And data is on.

I will note I freaking LOVE the idea of the status bar note. Friggin' brilliant! I can see myself using this a LOT.

Also, FYI, I'm running my Moto Triumph running CM7.2

My overall impression? There is a heckuva lot of clicking through menus.
