An App that would be awesome for all you students

Study Manager

As a student I find that something that can help me organise my time would be awesome. That is why I have come up with the concept for a Study Manager app.

Which is an app for students where you input the due date of your essays and how many words it has to be. The app then works out how many words you have to write per day to hit the day before your essay is due.

At the end of everyday it will ask how many words you have written so far and can give you an estimate of when you will finish if you continue at the current rate. The app could also have a to do list connected to each individual essay allowing you to not forget to include certain references when your laptop isn’t to hand.

The app would also include a section where you can use the detection of google shopper to scan the front of books and find out there cost online. This would be used while the student is in the library and wants to buy a certain book that say they cant take away from the library (or a book that they feel they want to keep).

Essentially this is an app that helps organise the lives of students giving them a better understanding of how to manage their time. You could also include a social aspect by connecting to Facebook and talking to your friends about the work allowing people to collaborate and share references.

This is an app that would also work well on a Galaxy Tab as it is a device that for me has removed the need for a netbook. Meaning that I use it for note taking and content consumption on the move, so when I am out and I have a brain wave it would be great if I had a dedicated app for my work.

In essence this is an app that will help a large number of students young and old organise and time manage their lives.

The impossible task Android doing iPhone

Image
Now every now and then I move between phones and most of the time (maybe 99%) I usually go between android devices. Last year I used a total of 13 phones in one year, a record for me and one I don't think I could ever beat. By use I mean USED put my sim card in and copied over my whatsapp messages and re-login to everything and use it as my daily driver. Sometimes the playing around would last 2 weeks and other times more, currently the phone I was using the Moto X held the record of 3 months if you include this January. One major reason for this is because as part of my job I need to know my way around all phones and how their UI and use cases differ. Within android all the different skins make each device different whereas the iPhone has stayed pretty static, even the recent update was more a lick of paint in my eyes than a complete rethink of iOS. The second is the fact that it is for me anyway really easy to move across between android devices, text messages, whatsapp, images...

My problem with the Apple Watch

Image
Right so we all know the Apple Watch is out now but I want to come at this from a geek with some nice watchs point of view. Before I start I want to say as much as I bash aspects of the Watch I will probably end up with one, this post is more about the cost of the straps than anything else. Below is a bit of a brain dump of thoughts I had this morning about it. About 12 years ago I inherited my dad's collection of watches. All of those watches are beautiful with a mixture of materials many are swiss made all of them items that I can keep and pass down to my kids one day. This has made me someone that can appreciate watches and the skill it takes to make them. I am also one of the few millennials that actually wears a watch mainly as a piece of jewelry than a timepiece. I am also a geek who wears ugly devices like the original Pebble every now and then and a nicer wrist watch for say going out to dinner or client meetings. From the watches that I have bought myself my daily...

What I learnt at Google I/O 2015

Image
The first day of Google I/O centred around the Internet of Things, the next billion and Google Now on tap (read my overview here). However, day two dived deeper into some extremely difficult hardware and software problems Google is trying to solve. Google’s ATAP (a division of Motorola that Google kept - and one of my personal favourites) is tackling some really interesting problems. This year they have made huge strides which will, I think, grab consumer attention - Project Soli and Jacquard - two advancements not just in technology but also material engineering and design... Project Soli Project Soli is truly amazing. It is a tiny sensor capable of 3D gesture recognition with sub-millimeter accuracy. As devices and screens are getting smaller it gets more difficult to accurately manipulate the content on them. This is where Soli comes in - it can detect your hand gestures and motion with startling accuracy allowing you to interact with a screen extremely precisely, without...
