checking signature...

[Saberstorm]

I checked out your app. I notice a major oversite. It seems to be almost entirely in Russian. Only the first page is in English. I think that will make it a hard sell...

[FZR]

no it is both in english and in russian. it depends on your phone language the default is English and the app is fully in English

[Saberstorm]

I think we need a sub forum for computer apps and so on, as these are becoming more common... anybody agree?

[ashlesha]

i just installed the app and i haven't gotten around to using it yet but i'd like to quote the disclaimer that popped up when i opened it:

This application is ad-supported and our advertising partner, Airpush Inc., may place ads within applications and in your device's notification tray and home screen. Airpush collects certain information in accordance with the permissions you just granted through the prior screen.* When you click on advertisements delivered by Airpush, you will typically be directed to a third party's web page and we may pass certain of your information to the third parties operating or hosting these pages, including your email address, phone number and a list of the apps on your device.

For more information on how Airpush collects, uses and shares your information, and to learn about your information choices, please visit the Airpush Privacy Policy. If you do not wish to receive ads delivered by Airpush in the future, you may visit the Airpush opt-out page or delete this app.

this is pretty aggressive.

*These were accessing call info like your phone number and something about opening network sockets.

[FZR]

you can check out this link if you want to know for what purposes airpush uses this info

[FZR]

Permissions to use network is for publishing a link of the app to facebook and when you finish a test you can share your sociotype with your friends. and that's it. also you can check on google play the permissions we are using. it can collect phone numbers I guess if it needs to but nothing about e-mails. Sorry for the inconvenience I will surely put this message to the app description. Thank you

[fen]

not sure how that's aggressive...

[ashlesha]

not sure how that's aggressive...

It's not just ads inside the app, they can put them on your home screen and in your notification bar.

Of course how much that bothers anyone is subjective, I personally think it's overboard, not enough to rail against it but enough to let people know before they download it.

Based on my experience it is comparatively more aggressive than most other apps.

Maybe it's super cool and worth it though, we'll see.

[fen]

oh, that's just unnecessary.

[FZR]

We used only notification bar ads and nothing more. I disabled the homescreen ads and other options. And, of course, if you find any bugs or you have some suggestions im me or use the email developer option in google play. I'm always happy for any feedback. Thank you.

Welcome, FZR!

Welcome to the forum

Whazzup homedawg? Great pic btw. In any case if you speak Russian you could easily become an authority on this site by translating some of that Gulenko for us. I hate the guy but I'm a minority in that sense, a lot of people here would probably really appreciate it.

[JWC3]

Also, no fucking way. Who coded this app? Was it you? Did you just win by means of app coding? I approve.

[GuavaDrunk]

Sup. o/ +1 for memorable indirect conversation-starter.

[FZR]

Yes I coded this app with my 2 friends. I actually can help with the translations. It won't be a problem

Word, I love you already.

hi, by the way

other than the ads the app is alright (ftr i've only had one ad come up in my notification bar since yesterday). i would classify it more as for beginners or for someone who just likes having some basics to reference right there on their phone for some reason. its got some basic info and its got type descriptions and tests grouped by author. its well organized and it hasn't been buggy at all.

Hi maybe you could give me some advice what to add there? Something very useful maybe and informative? Thanks for the feedback btw

Hello...

Is it me you're looking for?

[Gilly]

Nobody download that fucking app, the description reeks of too much spyware. This is not the direction we want our society to go.

Calm down there is no spyware there. only simple ads in notification bar and that's all

[JWC3]

Yeah, I've got the app and it seems legit so far. I swear my phone has not exploded or anything.

[Gilly]

Did you read the description of what the advertising component does? It gives your fucking phone number to advertising companies and random shit.

People need to stop treating their privacy as an expendable commodity. It sickens me.

Well like, no, of course I did not. I am generally an incredibly 'public' person though so being accessible to advertising companies doesn't really bother me. You're right, I more than likely should have cared about this and read that stuff of which you speak, however in this instance I did not and everything on my phone seems ok so far.

Look, I'm not forcing everybody to download this app if you don't want to install then don't you're free to do whatever you like and you know that, so why won't we just stop the arguing here and everything will be fine Thanks

Yeah and poorly designed aps that put ads on your phone and send your information to third parties are, like I said, the number one complaint about Android phones.

You should take it down.

You should take it down. It reflects poorly on your culture and makes you a sleezy ambassador.

It's completely not worse than any other android ap.

[Gilly]

It's completely not worse than any other android ap.

Yeah and most of them are complete shit. Trust me, this is my JOB, these kinds of apps are the number one source of problems with Android phones. I repeat, this is how I make a living, and half my time at work is spent removing shitty apps like these or doing factory resets to get subtle adware out of people's phones.

[Gilly]

Creepy Russian, take that shit out of your signature or, I promise, you will be ostracized. Not only because you are advertising on a private forum, but because people will fucking hate you once they download it. I work for a company that sells Android products and I get more complaints stemming from apps with such bloatware than ANYTHING.

So yeah. Cut that shit out.

[JWC3]

EDIT: Wrong thread. Ignore this post

[Absurd]

Are you another fake account? Just checking.

[JWC3]

Ok. So far this app is certainly doing a thing advertisement wise. Gilly was correct about that. The tests in the app however, and there are multiple, seem to be taken directly from modern (Russian) socionics theorists. Malware wise it's like giving me notifications that are just ads and not actual notifications. If you love some people like Gulenko (or the other 3 tests are based on Vorobyov, Tolstikova, and Meged/Ovcharov), which I don't, this app has some stuff you might be interested in. Haven't leafed through the type descriptions yet.

EDIT: I may have used the term malware incorrectly, I think adware might be more appropriate.

[Absurd]

Didn't test it, yet, but some apps, are treated as malware even though they're not by your anti virus. Personally I do not use one, never did, and never have had major problems.

Fake account is fake account.

Fake account is fake account.

Well like, We'll see? This person is certainly responsive via PM so they could be legit.

I have been as well, so sorry for premature ejaculation there, besides, I'm going to have to run it on me first. Did you find it okay?
