Android: ‘Specimen Hunter’ – Fishing App for UK Coarse Anglers

656 days

by Sam Coles in Mobile

A short while back I built an Android app for UK (& European) Coarse Anglers. More recently I’ve had it tarted up with some nice graphics by Olie Kay and pushed it to the Android Market.

The current fish capture logging apps that are out there for Android quite admirably try to achieve ‘the kitchen sink’, but end up being quite heavy and difficult to use. Specimen Hunter aims to simplify things and focuses on your targets and tracking personal bests.

Please check out the app and see what you think. It’s free – if you like it, you can offer your support simply by rating it or reccomending it to friends. It’s actively being developed, so if you have any suggestions, feature requests or spot any bugs please leave a comment on this post, or contact me via email or twitter and I’ll get back to you ASAP.

Features:

Set yourself specimen targets
Log your specimen captures
Review and sort your logged captures
Automatically review all your personal bests
Share info with other apps (email/twitter etc.)
Post your captures to your facebook wall from within the app
Active development – contact the dev with your ideas and suggestions!

Android App: ‘Noisy Neighbour’

Since I bought my Android phone last year I have been playing about with the Android SDK. I have worked through some App tutorials and also made a number of little demos using AndEngine.

A couple of weekends’ ago I decided to produce and publish a complete application for the market and ended up building a logging tool to record late night disturbances to your sleep.

You can download ‘Noisy Neighbour’ from the market here.
