We’ve been really busy the last few days so we didn’t have a chance to mention that HD Widgets was featured in the Android Market starting last week. We actually got added on Thanksgiving which meant for a pretty good Black Friday followed by our $0.99 Cyber Monday promo. This past weekend we got an even bigger bump as well, so we’re doing pretty good. We don’t expect this to last much longer but it will certainly help us as we transition back to working on Cloudskipper 2.
In the meantime, we are paying attention to your feedback and ratings and we’re learning a lot. For example, there’s a bunch of new devices that have awesome new screens that don’t fit into existing parameters. We’ve been scouring Craigslist and Amazon so we can pick up these devices and start making HD Widgets (and Cloudskipper) work just as well on those devices as those we already possess.
We just picked up a Samsung Captivate to replace one of the Galaxy SII we had on loan. We’ve also ordered a Galaxy Nexus and expect that this week (just in time?). I’m picking up an Evo 3D Wednesday morning. That just leaves the Galaxy Tab and/or Note for us to figure out the 5x? size widgets.
We really care about design and quality, so the Android emulator just isn’t enough. By having these devices in our possession we can figure out obvious pitfalls in advance. We should have fixes for QHD devices in the next day or so and we should be ready for XHDPI screens a few days after that.
We have you guys to thank for making it so we can afford to keep up, so… thanks! =)
this looks asome on lg v900 3d
So having a Note myself…. When are these For the Note coming?
We’ve already made the basic files, but making them look really good is proving to be a challenge since we don’t have the device. We’ll be testing with out pilots and push them out next week.
