Hi community.
I am working on my project but before launch i was wondering about the importance of registering logo and name. Do you do it? I know that appstore do not allow app with the same/similar name so it does have some kind of protection, but what about logos and googleplay? How do you proceed?
Cheers

Hello!
I have a few questions about Google Play Store, since it is my first application published and I am kind of a newbie so ^^
Just yesterday I published the first version of a Security app, named Wifi Security Checker (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.og.wifisecuritychecker).
Basically, it prevents network attacks by checking a few network mechanism (for the moment, 3 checks are made, 3 more will arrive soon).
So, here are my questions:
- How to promote an app efficiently (known blogs, forums etc...?)?
- How my app can get up in the Play Store listing (for now, even by taping exactly the application name, I have to go down a bit to find it)?
- I did not see any "tickets" for paid app, in order for developers to distribute their app to testers (like the iOs function). The only solution seems to send the apk to testers, and accept the licence email address in the console developer. Is that right?
Thank you in advance for your answers!
Do not hesitate to comment on the app itself, if you want to test it or else.
Best regards,
Olivier
Hi,
To start promoting your app I recommend Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus. Start first with your friends.
Regarding your second questions, be sure to have the correct keywords on your description and app title
Later
Hello,
Thank you for your answer!
Unfortunately, it is a security related app, which means that people who does not have a few knowledge in computer science will not get it (at least a very few). Is not it better to promote it on more specialized boards? (If yes, do you know a few of them?)
By the way, the network discovery functionnality is coming soon (less than a week I would say). After that, there will be a traceroute functionnality and a port discovery functionnality.
Do not hesitate to comment the idea itself and the technical mechanism too!
Best regards,
Olivier
Hi everybody, i would like to validate an idea which is not a mobile app but a service that could help mobile developers in promoting their apps...or at least i think it could!
So, this is the idea: i would like to create a promocodes service.
It would allow mobile apps (but even web apps) to call the service to verify promocodes validity so that developers can easily integrate the service within their apps, and have a gui to create and manage all the promocodes (with analytics about usage). I think this should help developers promoting their apps: dev could give promocodes away to blog reviewers or as a sort of bonus for another app or for other services to users.
I'm honestly asking your opinion about this idea and would like to know what do you think about it. I would be very gratefull to hear anybody's opinion, so please, post a reply and give me feedbacks!
Thanks in advance.
Just to clarify: my idea is about a webapp which allows to create/generate custom promocodes, not to use the ones that is possible to require to Google for paid apps. I think this could be a useful service for developers.
As an example, you can create a free app where features and functionalities are unlocked using promocodes (suppose permanently using specific promocodes that you give to a blog reviewer for example so he can have a full app at no cost, or just temporary unlocked as a trial period for common users). When the user decide to buy the paid-version of the app, he can still buy the paid-version from the PlayStore or permanently unlock the free version, directly from the app using IAP apis.
I think that it could help engage more users, also in games apps where user buys virtual goods, because you could post special promocodes on blogs or somewhere else, to give them free goods so to let them be interested in having a look at your blog or somewhere else where you can drive a different way to promote your apps (tips and tricks, promote other apps and so on...).
Do you think it could be a useful service? Would you use it?
Please, leave me a feedback, even a short one but i'd really like to see what people thinks about it.
Thanks in advance
Hello there!
Let's say I'm developing a web app targeting a specific group of people. I know their goals, their interests and their needs. I want to upsell them relevant services, products and apps, with entire experience natively integrated in my app interface.
So I need reliable mobile ad networks providing JavaScript or some kind of REST API, so I could just request product image, advertising text and referral link, and then mind my own business at displaying them inside the app correctly, without any need to install jar plugins and registering mediators. And then be payed by CPI/CPA.
Any idea what networks are the best in that regard?
(I'm using Intel XDK btw)

can you just put google adsense ads? i've been wondering what is wrong with doing that?
Curious to see what the answer for this as well, have definitely seen this question pop up a few times.
Adxmi use API integration
global ads network Adxmi use API integration.
API integration available
I got API integration as I wanted from Adcash. Guess API is most common choice, at least in my comm. circle
Please take a look at Hyper native ads API for app developers.
Our solution will cover your needs for sure.
Hallo!
I've recently heard about ROMS,degoogling your Phone etc. and I bought this S10+ Phone. Is there a safe was to delete all bloatware,google Software and so on?
I've heard about GrapheneOS but unfortunately it's only for google devices so I was wondering what kind of solutions exist for this case. There are also phones with hardware kill switches but I'm a little bit skeptical about them.
Please tell me everything you know about this or the best pages to get an idea how to do so. I will be forever grateful

If your s10+ is using an exynos cpu you can install lineage os. Lineage won't work on the snapdragon variants

Hi there sciencebitches,
I realize your original post was from 2020 and its now March 2023 so maybe this is not something your interested in anymore... maybe you have a new phone, etc. But....
The Samsung phones that are sold in North America (either Canada or US) have locked bootloaders that cannot be unlocked. So you are stuck flashing Samsung firmware that is digitaly signed by Samsung.
However, if you get an international model then you can unlock the bootloader and load custom firmware. You have a couple of choices.
LineageOSWhen loading LineageOS, you can choose to load it with or without GApps. Loading it with GApps gives you all the same Google stuff, a library known as Google Play Services, as on normal Android. Loading LineageOS without GApps gives you no Google stuff whatsoever. This is what I am running on my SM-G975F – LineageOS without GApps.
LineageOS for microGThis gives you LineageOS with a substitute library called MicroG. The MicroG library is a reimplementation of the Google Play Services that some (a lot?) of Android apps require. So, if you need to use some apps that require Google Play Services but don’t want to be overrun with Google again, then MicroG is recommended. With “pure LineageOS” (sans GApps) you get no Google Play Services whatsoever.
/e/OSThis is another implementation of LineageOS with MicroG. It is fairly polished but tries to look like iOS and so feels somewhat un-Android like. I have no first-hand experience with /e/OS.
GrapheneOS and Calyx OSThere is also GrapheneOS and Calyx OS but I have no experience with those either. My understanding is they are along the same lines. I think that GrapheneOS comes with no Google Play Services and no MicroG (i.e. like “pure” LineageOS) but gives you the option of installing real Google Play Services (not MicroG) as a normal app as opposed to as a system app.
If you live in Canada I can help you get an international phone that you can install LineageOS or one of the others listed here.
Best regards,
The Fish
