Big Tip Calc - Tip Calculator

Wed, 16 Jun 2010 11:10:32 +0000

Have you ever been to a restaurant that refuses a bill split? Try us! Big Tip Calc is a tip calculator (and a bill splitter) app with a jumbo-size result display. With the extra-large font size, you and your friends (and of course, your "friends", too) can easily see how much they need to contribute.

You can always go to the breakdown page to see how much exactly you'll have to pay for tips. The breakdown page still features a more appropriate font size for your friends and your senior colleague with less gifted eyesight to see =)

No matter you go for a meal or just for rounds of drinks, avoid yelling at your crowd of friends - just show the calculate results! (as long as they're not drunk!)

Support App2SD for Android 2.2. System will prompt you for installation location after downloading.

*************************
Q: There are lots of other tip calculators in the Market. why pick Big Tip Calc?
A: Our app is clean and ad-free. What's more, it's also compact in size! With a size of below 25k, even the more basic phone models can run this app with no noticeable speed slowdown.

Q: Is your app safe?
A: Absolutely! If similar apps asking for user-permission (especially full internet access), usually it means the app is ad-supported (or in the worst case, it might be stealing your personal information). Beware.

Q: I installed the app on phone but I want to move it to my SD card now, how can I do that?
A: Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->Big Tip Calc->Move to SD Card

If you have any comments, please send us an e-mail. We will respond quickly. Thanks for your support!

高官廢話產生器

Thu, 03 Feb 2011 09:25:53 +0000

特區政府人材輩出，高官妙語連珠，連番演說往往令人拍案叫絕。他們的言論，富批判性之餘又充份具備哲學性，不是我們升斗蟻民一時三刻所能參透理解的。有見及此，本程式蘊含特別行政區高官過往及現在的精警摘錄，讓你隨時重溫香港特別行政區各項德政。其中精闢言論，定必令你茅塞頓開，獲益良多。

如果你立志考入香港特別行政區政府，為人民服務，做一個盡責的政務主任(做AO/政務官)，本程式正是你在官場打滾、扶搖直上的秘笈，絕對不容錯過！

聲明：本程式的資料內容，均真實確切地撮錄自香港特別行政區政府的新聞公佈、各司局級官員的言論、各局的公開資料以及各部門的公共資訊，以及上述來源的傳媒轉述。內容絕無杜撰、誹謗、歪曲、煽動成份，各地人士請安心使用。

******徵稿呼籲: 歡迎投稿！目前資料庫仍非常小，希望各方好友踴躍投稿！如果你打算投稿，歡迎電郵至9up@vaisseauhk.com (來稿必須摘錄自上述來源)。積福積德，功德無量！******

(更新預告：曾蔭權、曾俊華、唐英年等高官，絕是是社會一等一的精英。他們發表的言論，尤其激動人心，比晉惠帝、瑪麗·安托瓦內特等出類拔萃的領導者有過之而無不及。在未來的更新裡，我們將為他們語不驚人死不休的言論，特別開闢一個專區，好讓普羅市民對領導班子有更深入的了解。)

其他關鍵詞: HKSARG, HKSAR, 1823

對評價的一些回應:
- 文字方面，由於這個app會節錄高官廢話內容後才處理，絕不構成「顯著比例」的抄錄，用戶絕對不需擔心版權問題。
- 相反，要以聲音形成引用高官發言，涉及到媒體著作權方面的問題，而本人只是升斗蟻民，暫未有財力考慮有關建議，敬請原諒。
- 「分享」按鈕已改為放在顯眼處，惟Facebook不支援純文字的發言，會出現錯誤信息。目前無解。
- 顯示介面的確是有改善的空間。不過，介面暫時不打算大更新，因為仍有不少數量的低階手機用戶。小更新將會隨後陸續補上。

Recent changes:
1.2版更新:
- 「分享」功能移至主頁，更易找到
- 增加大約10條廢話

1.1版更新:
- 高官發言摘錄資料庫增補資料
- 多謝各位用戶提供寶貴意見，特設廢話分享功能

My Umbrella!

Tue, 05 Oct 2010 14:51:30 +0000

Ever left your beloved umbrella in a restaurant? When you realized that it's probably too late already? This is the app you need!

This app helps you to minimizes the risk by reminding you the presence of your umbrella every five minutes.

>>>>So, it's basically a buzzing alarm that repeats every five minutes once activated. (Or any preset time interval)

SPECIAL NOTE: This app doesn't require internet connection, nor can it detect if it's raining at your location.

*********STORY BEHIND THIS APP*********
It was raining that day. I shopped in a supermarket with an umbrella with a memorable history with me. My umbrella was in a shopping trolley. Sun was shining after the hour of shopping. I left the supermarket without remembering my lovely umbrella. Ten minutes later, I returned there just to realize everything was too late.

Later, I returned home to make this app for myself. A friend of mine liked it, and I decide to put it onto Android Market.
