App Stats: Time Progress Bars

Image
Time for some app stats! My newest app, Time Progress Bars, was released on the Google Play Store in October 2020. Total downloads - 784 Active downloads - 446 Revenue - $12.75 My share of revenue - $8.92 The app has translations for 100+ languages. About half of the downloads are from non-English-speaking countries. I'm not running ads in this app. All revenue is from an in-app purchase that lets users change the color scheme.

Progress Bars - updating 1% at a time

Image
I'm working on an app that shows time progress bars. I wanted the minute progress bar in this app to tick up 1% at a time. I knew that with 60000 milliseconds in a minute, this meant that updating the progress bar every 600 milliseconds should do the trick. My calculations weren't originally precise enough, however, and you can see that before the progress bar would skip 1-3% instead of 1% at a time. This was because I was doing calculations with seconds as an Int. After I switched to doing my division with Longs instead of Integers it worked great!

Video: Scorekeeper App Preview

Image
I receive a lot of reviews of scorekeeper asking for the ability to edit the names of players, which is a feature already available through long-pressing on the player name. Apparently, long-pressing is not something intuitive to try for some people, so they are left without the ability to change the player name. I hope this video preview helps make it easier for users to understand how the app works and how to get to additional features already available to them.
