wwdiary - Daily Point Allowance errors

If you are getting an incorrect daily point allowance, please check the point calculator in the preferences.  There was a bug ( still have not found it yet ) that may have blanked out some information ( like gender ).  Please make sure this information is accurate and check your points again.

wwdiary - version 3.2.2 posted to Android Market

Experimental barcode support!

You will be asked to allow permission for internet access for this feature.
SDcard access is for database backup feature.

Also, for the barcode reader to work, you will need to install another application that handles the reading.   You can find out more information about the barcode reading application here.

I expect to add more features to this in the future.  For instance, when you scan a 2 pack of General Mills Cheerios Twin pack, you get "GM CHERRIOS TWIN PACK" and you might just want to enter "Cherrios", so there's still work to do to let you customize the text after you scan ( and save that customization for when you scan again ).

wwdiary - version 3.2.1 posted to Android Market

This version contains veggie, water, and dairy tracking.
It also adds quick actions to the view so that you don't have to press menu for everything.

I may have fixed some bugs in there too, but I'm sure I created more than I fixed :)
It was quite a large change, so bear with me if there are any force-closes or error reports.

Once again, thank you to all the people who've donated, you guys rock!

wwdiary - What do you think?

They work like the rating bar widget in android.  You can slide left or single click on the amount of... stuff... in whatever you ate.

I only have the user interface working right now, it doesn't record anything.  I don't think I'll be adding oil and protien.  While important, they are small in number (checklist) and easy to spot on the food list...   But if you have any compelling reasons why I should reconsider, let me know!

I may move this away from the food entry dialog and into its own checklist dialog...  Not sure what I want to do yet... this way though, I could tie a value of 2 veggies to a food item called "giant bowl of broccoli" and it would always be remembered as such.

wwdiary - version 3.1.4 posted to Android Market

This versions removes the cap on activity points that one can earn in a day.   The cap was in place because the paper tracker only had 28 boxes for a day, but several people (who are WAY more active than me, btw) have asked me to remove the cap.  I really couldn't find any info online as to if there really was a cap... so it's removed.

I've also been getting some error reports from some users trying to edit entries in the pointlog.  I know what the error is that's happening, but I'm still not sure why.   So I've added some extra information to the error report.   If anyone sees this error report when choosing to edit or delete an entry, please send it.

Todo list

I've taken most of your suggestions that I've been holding on to in email conversations and made them into a todo list over on the right side of the page.  Been pretty busy lately, but I should be able to send out 1 or 2 updates this weekend for some of the more minor changes.

Google is sending me a free phone!

I received an email a few days ago from Google saying that the wwdiary app qualified as part of their "Developer Seeding Program".  They are sending out free phones (NexusOne / Verizon Droid) to their "top developers" with more then 5000 unique downloads, and a rating of 3.5 stars or better.

Right now wwdairy has over 21,000 active installs and a rating of around 4.5 stars, so I'd like to thank every one of you who has commented with such good ratings on the Android Market!   The device I'll get is random (nexus/droid) but I'll make a new post in week or two when the phone gets here :)
