Hello Omer,

Looks good, this exercise is intended in part to give you an introduction to the general rhythm of this course. The course is entirely project-based with an app being assigned each week and then due the following week. Each project builds on the last to help each engineer learn the practical elements of Android development and best practices as quickly as possible. We also do a code review for each submitted project once the program begins.

The next step is to continue working on extensions to your todo app. With regards to extensions to implement, we are looking for developers with an interest in user experience and product development so be sure to focus on additional functional enhancements and/or improving the user interface of the app. You can re-submit on the application dashboard anytime and we'll take another look.

We'll be following up with you again shortly to outline the next steps in the admissions process.

Thanks! I have implemented and resubmitted the first suggested feature. I will keep pushing new features as they are implemented.

Hello Omer,

Looks good, this exercise is intended in part to give you an introduction to the general rhythm of this course.

We also do a code review for each submitted project once the program begins.

Great to see you were able to complete some extensions to your app already. The extension tasks available on each project are often the most valuable learnings since they dive deeper into common real-world Android use cases. We encourage you to continue working on extensions to your todo app as a way to further explore Android development.

See if you can expand the functionality of the app or instead work on improving the user interface by experimenting with colors, spacing, styling, icons, etc. Be sure to take a look through our organizing your source files guide for additional tips on structure as well. You can re-submit on the application dashboard anytime and we'll take another look.

We'll be following up with you again shortly to outline the next steps in the admissions process. /cc @codepathreview

We wanted to check in with you again about your project. As we are making final determinations, we like to reach out to applicants to help them increase your chances of participating in the course. We'd definitely encourage you to extend your assignment and/or iterate on the UI to further explore the platform. As we make tough decisions about who to admit, we will be making our final determinations for this course based largely on the feature completeness and UI polish of each pre-work.

Once you've augmented your pre-work, be sure to re-submit using the application dashboard and we will take another look at your project.

Let us know if you have any further questions. /cc @codepathreview

Thanks for the feedback. I have implemented suggested features 1,2,3,5 and 6. You can see the demo here. I have also resubmitted the updated links on the application dashboard.
