Need beta testers for my app, Visual Reminder

xess — Thu, 03 Jan 2013 22:28:34 +0800

Hi guys, I recently created a new app for Windows Phone 8 and 7.5 called Visual Reminder. The idea behind it is: "It's easier to remember stuff using pictures." You take a picture of the subject you wish to remind yourself, such as who you lent your book to, where you parked your car, etc, and it'll show up on your home screen live tile or your lock screen. Words are sometimes easy to miss, but a picture will trigger your memory easily, and it's also faster than typing considering how fast the cameras are these days.

Either way, my partner and I tried asking our facebook friends for help, twice! Sadly though, it seems that no one seems to have Windows Phone 8. I don't have one either, so I can't even test it myself. All I have is the emulator, so I'm not sure how it behaves on a real phone. I only have a HTC Mozart, which is WP7.5 and Visual Reminder seems to work well on it. However, the feature set of Visual Reminder for WP7.5 and WP8 are different and thus use two completely different XAP files.

Here are some screens:

[attachmentid=3242089]

[attachmentid=3242090]

[attachmentid=3242091]

And this is the link to the marketplace entry.

It is an invite only beta app (that's the only option available), so you'll only be able to download it once your email has been added to the invite list.

So please, please, if you can help me test Visual Reminder, especially on WP8, please PM your email address (the same one you use for your Windows Phone). Thanks!

Feel free to ask me any questions here.

How to check data usage?

Does anyone know an alternative way to check data usage on Maxis?

The Vertical service code for this should be *100*6*1*3#

However, this clearly does not work on my HTC Mozart.

Some advice or guidance would be much appreciated.
