yes, i know it’s been a while. it will probably be some time longer until i write something on this piece of toilette paper (yes tumblr, i just called you toilet paper), but here goes
how about an app that tell you how many physical pages you have read on the web? this infinite scroll thing is making it difficult for me to know how much i’ve read.
bllah, blah, blah - toilet paper (yes, not even a napkin)
this is a little puzzle game where you have to solve two mazes simultaneously. you have two players, each stuck in their own little maze. you control both players at the same time and the challenge is to solve both mazes. to complicate things, there are traps in both mazes that your players must avoid.
organizing to attend events with friends are more trouble than it should be. there should be an app that allows you to setup a booking for an event.
you invite your friends and set a deadline by when the booking should be made. everyone is notified and they can confirm and sort out their own payment. when the deadline occurs the booking gets made for everyone that confirmed. simple, easy!
how about letting out those unused processing power on your mobile. it only happens when your phone is being charged and the screen is locked. preferably only jobs with low bandwith requirements, but jobs requiring more bandwidth may be higher paying. wonder how does all the smartphones in the world compare with an average super computer?
throwing a bottle in the ocean? i think not, that’s called littering! rather use the miab (message in a bottle) app to do that. you write a short message and send it using the miab app.
there is a 1 in 1000000 chance that your message will be delivered to some random person. the app also randomly delays your message for up to several years.
maybe it’s reinventing pen pals, or maybe just a slightly better version of bbm :)
making potjiekos is a little different from following a quick recipe. it’s an activity that can take as long as 5 hours. having an app to track previous potjies and assist with new ones would be great. the app should assist by giving you a time line of when to braai the meat, cut the veggies, add the veggies, cook the rice or samp, etc. off course it should also include the ingredients and seasoning
i always choose the queue that moves the slowest when i go to the supermarket. i would love an app that can tell me what row will be the quickest. even random will perform better than my judgement :)
hate buying a new pc/phone just before the next great product gets released? how about an application that tells you when it is a good time to make that purchase?
i would like my exercise app to save the weather conditions together with the other info it keeps. running tends to be a little harder when it 32 degrees celsius outside!
appidea should help you remember ideas for new apps. whenever you have an idea you can quickly write down a description and select the phone features that will be necessary for the app. you can also share an app idea with a group who can then together evolve the idea.
levelling paintings and mirrors are always a hassle. this app would use augmented reality to help you. you open up the app, point the camera at the wall where your painting is hanging and the app draws a level line on the wall.
i want an app that can forecast certain financial decisions. like if you want to buy a property now, how will it affect your monthly budget and will it outperform another investment in a 10 year time scale. or if you sell the property before the loan period is over how that will affect the investment.
i want an app that helps me run faster by acting as a metronome. the app can use your previous runs to determine the average length of a step. it can then use this information to calculate at what pace you should be running (maybe just a little faster than last time) and play a clicking sound on every step.
i would like an app that automatically cycles through a defined set of pictures and update my profile picture for different social networking sites accordingly.
there should be an app that rewards you when you walk or cycle to work. for every kilometre that you walk, you get one green bean. You can then trade in your green beans for discounts at local stores (more beans if you walk to the store).
i would like an app that organize a crowd to show up somewhere. it should be able to use twitter, facebook, latitude, etc to build up the growd.
there should be an app to help men style their moes. you select the type of mo you’d like and then you use your phone as a mirror to shave!
i would like an app that counts the steps you climb. it should also determine whether you are climbing up or climbing down.
i would like an app that keeps track of my keys. whenever i put my keys down somewhere (the app can detect this using sound, nfc or bluetooth?) the app should remember the position. when it is time to go somewhere, the app can help finding those keys!
i want an app that takes a picture of a city skyline an convert it into audio
