New Android software app interested
« on: November 11, 2012, 08:47:55 pm »
I have started this afresh so as to get all your attention.
Would any of you be interested in the development of your own Android app ?
I have already posted  the job to see what sort of  price we would be looking at.
By owning the rights to it we could upgrade as we see fit.

We need to start thinking of what we would want as standard and go from there.

So yes im interested or no thanks ,please.

Would it be worth placing an ad here to see what quotes we can get?

I've used Guru.com successfully before,...

Lets get a detailed list of features first so we can get an accurate quote & no messing around.

Also - ALWAYS choose an english speaking Guru,.. I've had issues before simply down to the language barrier!


So - what features are on your "must have" list?

ie.. 10/04/2010 to 10/05/2010 -bacs = £ total x amount

on the fly add job/amend job
custy detail click on phone number to dial ,would be good
Vat box,maybe

When you say app do you mean online like a work or on an android phone / tablet?

My perfect software would run on an android tablet, have features from wcp and George with the backup online option like George has.

If what your thinking about is what I'm after then I would happily get involved with this. I have used George and wcp for my round software

Im interested to.

Emailing customers direct from program would be great as i use wcp at mo and its a faff at end of day saving invoices then emailing them all out individually. One click email to customer or option for auto email for certain customers.

I like the idea of having separate accounts to say if you had employees where you could send out worksheets in morning to individual phone, so the app would need to work on a number of phones, iphone etc.

Texting idea would be good from phone, dont see why we should have to pay for a text bundle tho as i can text for free thru my phone, so if i could have a one click option on program to text a standard message ie "We are cleaning windows tomorrow please leave gate open, thanks"

I really like WCP and kinda begrudge leaving it but i think we need to move on now its not getting developed as nat said. I also have had troubles getting into it when had new comp and been waiting a few days. That said i cannot fault their service, always been great with me and has really helped my business over the last few years!

You know what, WCP does exactly everything i need bar being on my phone, surely WCP boys could bring it out on android? Id be willing to pay monthly subscription to that.

I have had a couple of job replies.I took some details from wcp that i use and use this as a basic to work from.
The quotes are $1100. and the second is $4300
The second has a list of jobs on show as long as my are.
This is just giving us a idea of cost.
@ Nath hows your list coming on ?

Sorry mate - been mad busy & simply haven't had time to look at it.

Think I'm going to have to let you go it alone on this one - you seem to have a perfect grasp on it anyway.
