I heard there was an application for iphones that counted pushups and situps. Is there any like this for android? What applications do you feel are the best for fitness on android?

Droidfit and Sportypal get my vote.

I use Calorie Counter by Fat secret. Doesn't count push ups and all that but it's free and has food and exercise diaries and a weight tracker. Pretty good if you're trying to keep your weight down and watch what you eat. Honestly haven't even tried the exercise part yet.
I like the Cardiotrainer app, from work smart labs. GPS based tracking and distance, calorie counter. Its free, and uses some paid addons, but is fully funtional for the free version. can be set for different paces, ie running, walking, biking, etc. Has online tracking as well as global "leaderboard", which is fun. Can also be used indoors with pedometer.
I just started using DroidFit and I think it is a nicely done app. You have to manually input all the information but I think that helps give you a more precise experience.

I use Mens Health & Run Keeper.
I recall using an app that you used once a day, and it gave you a simple task to perform (like standing on your tippy toes for 15 seconds). Then you mark it as done and it tells you how many others have done that task. I've been trying to remember the name of it. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

It's gotten a little.... green.
Welcome to about last week.
... and the market still sucks. No way to sort by popularity or # of downloads, search results usually yield Asian crap unrelated to your query, and its slow.
I love Android, I love tinkering with it, but they really need to fix the market. When I search for "xda developer" I shouldn't get pages upon pages of garbage in a language I can't speak. I should also be able to filter searches by free, paid, rating, downloads, etc.
</rant>
Very much a mess still... Oh well

I knew it was out but i dont have it still!
New market doesn't show my downloaded free apps! Anyone got the same problem? If so, how is it solveable? BTW, if I search for those apps, then they show as installed - but not in my apps. Go figure.

I don't like the barf green at all. Other than that it seems to work fine so far, I haven't had an stuck in authorizing/installing issues like I had before yet. But I have had it lag a bit several times.
I do wonder if this is partially my SD card failing or something.
I have to admit being an app designer myself. It looks ****ty and amateur. However the usability fells much better.
Google pretty much build solid apps but design sucks. Just imagine I'd they invested in good designers, they would kick ass.

Clear market cache and something from the settings. Restart after clearing cache.
My old market didn't show downloaded free apps any more. What I did was go to preferences - applications. Then to market and erase its data.
After starting market I had the new market! And all installed apps were visible again.
I prefer not to have an option to sort by ratings/download number. If available, people would search for something, sort the list by ratings and download the top one or the second.
Not being able to sort by ratings gives less known applications the opportunity to shine in the market.
Heylo! I have started going to the ymca and doing mile runs I am looking for an app that I can time my laps and get the total time out of them and save those times as text, etc.
Suggestions? I'm using the app; Stopwatch And Timer right now but i cant save my times..
Lastly, thanks!
Ultrachron can send to email.

ahh cool its free, downloaded. Will test when I have free time
Hm well this app is nice. But only email logs.. kinda lame.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
This one has what you are looking for and is only $2.99. Stopwatch +
OK last one. StopWatch by coolcode.org is free and says Save/Copy/Send Result. Haven't tried it though.
hehe i was all about spending like 5 dollars on an app that could save logs but that has really slipped away. ill try the free one, thanks for being here,
that free stopwatch is awesome, though i did like how ultrachron would say how long your lap was. thanks a bunch )
THE ADS ARE SOOO SMALL!!! XD
I love it's especially on the xda app, its in the bottom left hand corner, and is barely noticable.
Someone should start a thread on good apps that work on the Xoom, or start it here, I personally would but I'm new to android, which is why I would like to know some good apps. I mostly operate off 3g connection, which is why I don't want to try the download and try and delete method.
3 gigs 35 dollar $-$ wtf.
Ill start with what I have downloaded that's not a tablet app and works fine.
-Xda (obviously)
-Astro file manager
-skype (I read somewhere that they were going to make a tablet specific version for a fee)
-Dr Webb for android
That's all really.
Two that I dl'd that didn't work were vevo and pocketcloud
Vevo didn't play videos at all but I haven't tried on wifi yet.
Pocketcloud worked like it should with massive lag even on wifi, might just be cause its a free app, I dont know, like I mentioned thus is my first android device. And I must say, it wins.
Anyway, please help me find great apps and ill return the favor.
One awesome one for tablets is PewPew

Lol, I hadn't noticed the ad until you mentioned it. Just loaded xda on my xoom.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
yeah i love that. but im sure they will change it and have ads take up more space.
Pay for the premium XDA app. Support the community and it's only $0.99 . I paid for it and I love the XDA theme and being able to set the app up the way I want it.
My xda app crashes all the time. At first I thought it was my rooted evo, but it does the same thing at the same place on the xoom. Hard to pay for something that keeps fc'ing.

If a tablet version is made, I will definitely buy the app. There are a lot of features I'd like to take advantage off that's not in the free app. But the free app does freeze a lot, right now I'm not even able to get into it because it's been stuck at the XDA loading screen. I can't seem to get it past that.
And I know they're going to make tablet apps with Huge ads, thats why phone apps are better
Hopefully they do make a tablet app for XDA tho, I'll even pay $2 if it has most the features of the site.

When they take out the unneeded permissions (GPS, phone identity) I will. Till then I use the web browser.
Go to manage applications in settings and reset the cache for the XDA App and it should fix the problem.

Whats everyone using these days for security on there phone. I kind of like the sound of SeekDriod for a buck... Has anyone had to use Plan B,
I used lookout for a long time, now I'm using assurions tep app. Its free.
I'm using mobile defense, its my favorite since it uses the actual GPS to get you a location. Lookout never did that when I used it. Unfortunately mobile defense is a closed beta right now.

Pretty simple poll here, just want to know if most people use the XDA app more often or if they're more often using the web to access XDA.
Some people put half their message in the subject, and last time I checked, those don't show up in the app. Maybe some confusion could be avoided if we stopped using message subjects altogether, no?
I would say I'm about 99% web (visit often while 'working'). And for the record, I think I left this open for 30 days.
Definitely apps

When I 'feel' I have something important to share, I feel as if I need to spew it all from my laptop.. lol also when I have attachments to share, (without using db) but since db can be used, mostly app for me.
I tried the app, but it really sucks. In fact, I don't know why I still have it installed.
EDIT: Just uninstalled it and purged the backups of it. Good riddance!
When I am home and have the laptop open I will use the browser. When I am out I use the XDA app. I am probably on it more on the phone than the computer.
99% app. Even with its drawbacks just dang convenient.
The app got the thanks button...now if it gets multi quote

If you mean xda only, then I would say the last 5 months its been xda 100% of the time for me. But if you mean things like g+, I went the web way, just because I use gmail app to get G+ notifications, banking, ebay, paypal, things like that I use the websites from my phone, not the apps.

Another user and I'm sure many others too, have mentioned downloading the tapatalk app from Samsung apps supposedly the same thing as the xda paid app version.
I would say 75% app all of the time. I use tapatalk, there's other forums I can follow also.
The app is so easy to scan for updates on my phone.
95% web
4% app
1% osmosis
