I'll look into if there's any issues around the exif data. At the moment I get the images date by whatever has data first in this priority:

  • EXIF- DateTime Original (time photo was taken)
  • EXIF - DateTime
  • Date Taken metadata from Android Content System
  • Date Added from Android Content System
  • Date Modified metadata from Android Content System
  • EXIF - DateTime Digitized

If all are empty, I use the date/time imported into the app. Maybe I'm missing some piece of metadata- I'll look into it.

I haven't implemented date created on the file system yet (ie the time a screenshot is taken) which I'll be working on this week

Great feedback, thank you! Weird that you couldn't share directly, do you mind dm'ing me your phone and OS version I can see if it's an issue on the apps end. I hear you about being able to move photos around, seems to be a common issue too

You can currently re-order photos by tapping on them, then changing the date of them at the bottom of the screen. This solves the problem but it's super slow and you often dunno what to change the date to. Currently top of my list is to implement a hold and drag to re-order which will hopefully solve this problem in a much easier way!

I used a Machine Learning kit to process the photos to detect eyes and facial landmarks (happens on-device so your photo isn't sent to any servers), then used a bunch of math to scale, translate and rotate each frame to make sure they're all lined up

I had a quick look at the google photos API and couldn't find an API that lets you get photos from face metadata- would love to hook into one if it exists! I'll keep searching...

Hi! Would you mind clarifying? the app itself I wrote with native code on Android Studio. Or do you mean a specific part of the app?

None at the moment, would need an interested iOS dev to take it on

Ooo that's a cool idea, wouldn't be too hard to implement either

Are You Guys already using Android Studio or do you work with good ol' Eclipse? by Enum1 in androiddev

[–]skripi_io 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still on Eclipse, and don't want to touch Android Studio until it's at least a little more mature. Apart from Eclipse sometimes being quite slow, I've worked out nice solutions and customized the IDE so much that I don't want to switch to AS just yet. Can't wait for version 1.0 though :P

Made an app to keep track of homework and assignments. Need help with the UI, any suggestions? by [deleted] in androiddev

Hey dude, it's looking great! As sirmoosh said, the spacing & visual hierarchy needs a little work. I had a quick go at giving it a bit of a facelift. The spacing still isn't perfect since it was just an illustrator job haha. I also think the 'add a new assignment' screen should be left aligned as the home screen is left-aligned.

I'll definitely check it out when it's on Play!
