gear 2 application challenge

I can't wait!

I just got my Gear 2 this week (made the jump from BB and got the S5 Active as well) and am happy to see dev and Samsung support for this!
 
I am done with this cool FREE app and selecting next week a new project ;) Have to choose now between app that behave like a launcher (so-so app) and another cool app I am thinking about
 
Please do the launcher. I'm so tired of searching for app icons across so many screens

I have to be honest with you, there is no "launcher" concept in Gear. I am thinking about app that launches other apps or something like that. I am hesitating .. don't know if it is going to be good
 
I have released new app , not the cool app I mentioned before, vSilent... Get it for free

 
What about a clock screen with shortcuts that automatically change with daytime
I.e.: just like the stock one, but camera, calendar and notifications from 7 am to 8pm, the change to alarm, sleep and flashlight from 8pm to 7 am, and then back again.
Or even during week days, like changing calendar to exercise on sunday and back on other days
 
Something that would allow me to edit vibrations. Having it vibrate just once and so quickly is a real down fall in my opinion. I would pay 5-10 dollars to be able to make the vibrations better.
 
Good Todo/task list app, with native app. For watch, to see and mark done, sorting on priority and done. and organize in lists.
For native app the above and having easy to move/copy within lists and sharing. But also share source with single or batch adding.

Hourly sound

Navigation with vibration before nearing a turn.

Tasker integration

App launcher on phone with shortcut support.

Profiles, if outdoor the brightness higher than for indoors. Having vibration and sound together. With shortcut activating for integration with tasker.

Better notifications handle, with support of Android 4 type notification with actions.

I would love to see integration of a task list with Wunderlist, or something similar. I want to be able to type up a todo/task list (shopping list) on my computer or phone, and have it sync with the other + watch.
 
My cries are lost in the wilderness. :) (No app launcher yet to give us more than 4 paltry icons per screen, and Google/Samsung/someone hasn't given us Hangouts responding capability). Are those two things something that no one else with a Tizen watch wants?? I guess I'm the odd-ball once again. :)

The next version of Multi-Watch will have 9 (3x3) icons app icons available with a swipe up.

OK, I just googled that and found a web page where in the comments, the developer promised a user 3 months ago, that Version 2 was coming out in "a few days". Hmmm.... What is the version that you refer to as "the next version", Jim? Thanks.

I don't want anything that will suck the life out of the battery (I have read quite a few posts about clocks that reduce battery life. I just want more icons per page.)

Multi-Watch 2.3 is the current version, and 2.4 will be the next one. Here are the developer's comments; Multi-Watch - an editable Gear 2 watch - Post #647 - XDA Forum
 
Gear Challenge submission ended 2 weeks ago. I guess 800-1000 apps and games were submitted to the challenge including some watch faces. Still waiting for official number of apps. I think it was very successful for Tizen

You can always post ideas , I will consider them. However, now and the next few weeks I am working on major updates. Already started for wvAlarm and vCounter

Quick question for you: Do you make your apps available for the S5 Active? According to Samsung there is a limited range of apps for each device. I'm curious if when you submit them, you have to specify which phone it is for? Maybe no one bothers specifying S5 active and just selects S5? I don't know. I'm just frustrated.

I am sorry to tell you that GS5 Active is missing from the list of devices when I select ALL devices when I submit apps to the store. I was asked the same question on other forum by another owner of GS5 active. I told him that his phone model is missing. Then he told me that he contacted Samsung and they told him that the store developers "Forgot" to add GS5 Active to the gear apps list

He rooted his phone and changed the configuration file and now the Gear Manager thinks his phone is GS5 and all apps appears

I will send you PM about the other guy in the other forum. He will help you more than me .

Thanks for the info. I don't think I want to root my phone, so I'll probably leave it as I'm beat.

Do you think they give out different dev tools? I see some apps on the store so I know some people were able to get their apps on there somehow.

I don't know . I think dev tools has nothing to do with Galaxy Store IMO. I think it is internal bug.

I was told that none of my apps are available on GS5 Active. I am able to select 54 devices only regardless of app type (standalone or integrated)

Contact Galaxy store. There is no reason why my 10 apps not available for your phone.
