[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 217176, member: 16749"] I thought of saying something similar, but less polite, but thought that perhaps I'd best keep quiet for now and see how the rest of this forum responds. I'm fairly new, here, myself. It is usually considered very bad form to join a forum, just to advertise something. If your first or only post to a forum is such an advertisement, you can generally expect to be greeted much less warmly than you have here. Most forums I've been on would have simply banned you for this. Not all forums even allow such advertising at all, and those that do usually have a specific place to post such advertisements. It's really best, even on forums that allow any sort of advertising, not to do so until you've been a participating member of that forum for a while and established yourself as a part of the community which it represents. If you've joined very many forums, just to advertise your app, then do not be surprised if you go back and find that most of them have banned you and removed your posting, and don't be surprised if your ISP has received complaints about you spamming those forums. You might even get your app pulled from Google Play if they receive enough complaints about you spamming forums to advertise it. Forums like this generally exist for people with a common interest to discuss that interest among themselves. They do not exist for outsiders to come in and advertise to the forum's members, and those who do so are usually not well-received. That said, your app does look rather cool. It seems to me that you must have developed and tested it on a larger screen, such as a tablet, and haven't really given much thought to how well it'd work for someone with big fingers trying to use it on a smaller screen, such as a phone. I find it difficult to work the slider I intend to rather than the one above or below it. Also, consider a drop-down menu rather than a slider for the sensor sizes. [/QUOTE]
