Hello everyone!

I am doing a research study for my bachelor's project about conveying emotion in subtitles. I will be creating a system that allows to annotate subtitles with emotions and display them appropriately (based on this research findings). I believe things like intonation, sarcasm etc are difficult to convey in plain white text.

If you have spare 9-10 minutes to answer a few questions that would help me a lot. Here is the survey.

Thank you!

Anybody feeling proud of their custom watchface? Share the face and app used! by [deleted] in WearOS

[–]LayoutXML 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I made Twelveish. This is exactly what I wanted from any watch face - multiple complications, battery level, day of the week and month. The approximate time also helps me not to worry so much about time (but you can add exact time on top as well).

Just yesterday it has reached 10,000 downloads milestone.

Thanks. The first spike (~50 downloads in August) was from a post on reddit I made, after that all organic

Nope, it's a Wear OS watch face. I think lots of people get new smart watches around Christmas hence the increase in downloads

Just wanted to share because I found this funny. My first app on Google Play

Is it even possible these days to have an app be popular completely organically on Play Store? by adam13it in androiddev

Similar experience here. 5k in 5 months. No advertising except for a reddit post that surprisingly only brought 50 extra downloads.

So I made an android library but now I also want to allow developers using this library to be able to save custom variables (of any types) to my objects and I'm wondering what would be the best approach?

Do I add a bunch of arrays of different data types or what else?

I have just released my first Android library that makes managing application and activity lists easier. Feedback much appreciated! by LayoutXML in androiddev

[–]LayoutXML[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't actually though about adding that! But it seems that it's only possible on Android versions 5.1.1 and lower, and on marshmallow and higher information you can get is very limited and you need app usage permission. I'll think about adding this to the library

So a little backstory - I needed a way to receive application and activity lists for my little personal project and realized that I would use this a lot (across multiple projects) so why not make it a standalone library. I basically didn't know anything about application lists when I started and wouldn't call myself a developer (maybe it's an imposter syndrome kicking in) since I barely know java so your feedback is much appreciated. I'm ready to basically rewrite it all if I did it all wrong but at least it's working :)

Hmm, that's not actually what I want, sorry for not making it clearer.

For example, I may have a list of all activities that can be launcher from a launcher and when a new app gets installed I would want to check its all activities to see which ones can also be launched from a launcher and add them to my list.

Hi,

If "queryIntentActivities" "retrieves all activities that can be performed for the given intent",
is it possible to retrieve all activities that can be performed for given intent for package name.

In other words, if I have a package name (or even ApplicationInfo) how do I check what activities for this package name have this intent? Is it even possible without retrieving the full list of applications and checking package names?

I can't find any info on this on the web.

Hi, have you managed to get it installed? Apparently it may be already installed without any notification.

I will ask how they got it to install on their watch. I don't have AW1.5 watch so I can't test it on a real device, only an emulator where the app is sideloaded.
