Akshay, :+1: nice work overall. A few notes after checking out the code:

• In the future, definitely consider additional polish for the UI by reviewing the cloning a screen tutorial and Q&A and the drawables guide.
• Nice use of tag to setup the ability to click the profile image and view a user's profile
• For tabs, try following this approach for cleaner tab listeners and better memory management.
• Nicely done architecting the fragments (base class and extension classes) such that you put as much code and logic as possible in the base class and then used abstract methods to define only the specific behavior where they differ!

Here's a detailed Project 4 Feedback Guide here which covers the most common issues with this submitted project. Read through the feedback guide point-by-point to determine how you might be able to improve your submission.

This week (Week 5), we are going to cover the last major piece to the Android puzzle and that is using the hardware and SDK components such as the camera, photo gallery, location, maps, etc. After that, Week 6 we will be covering all the topics that separate an intermediate Android developer from a beginner that will act things you should start reviewing to continue your path to being a great Android developer.

Week 7 (Nov 11th), we are going to have a demo day to celebrate the progress you've all made with our next batch of Android students and multiple companies attending to see the group projects that you all have built. We are going to help however we can over the next 2 weeks to get the apps in shape and also have you all prepare a short slide presentation as well.
