This app needs a new name #161

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Jelly Bean introduced volume control features that automatically handle the 
stream volume.  The primary function of this app is no longer needed. Now I 
need to rename it to something more fitting.  The real goal of the app is to 
automate things such that you can keep your phone in your pocket or purse and 
not look at it while driving.  I have an enhancement request to automate car 
mode when a device connects as well.  I plan other features in the future to 
improve the driving experience and prevent driver distraction.  So, I am 
thinking something like "driving mode" but less boring.  Please post your 
thoughts below.

Thinking I may call it "Drive".

I am rethinking the rename thing.  Instead I will completely replace this app 
with a new app I make from scratch.  I have learned many things since I started 
this app.  Things I would do differently next time.  Things that would make the 
app perform better.  Improvements that can be made to the GUI.  I will probably 
make a few more releases of A2DP Volume cleaning up issues and adding some of 
the requested enhancements.  After that it will just be in maintenance mode 
until usage drops away.  The new app will focus on enhancing the interaction of 
the device with Bluetooth car systems for driving.  The goal is to reduce 
driver distraction while also leveraging the capabilities of the mobile device. 

Please post some name ideas for the proposed app.  If I don't hear anything I 
think I will call it simply Drive.

I just found this app, although it isn't directly what I was looking for, but 
it seems like it will work great.  I always lose (misplace) my bluetooth 
headset.  I will go for days before I find it again.  Sometimes I leave it at 
work, or in my gym bag, in a pair of pants, who knows.  My problem is that with 
so many places to look, I often don't know where to start or focus.  What I am 
hoping is that this will allow me to pinpoint where I should look for my 
headset.  Even knowing that the last place I had a connection was at home is 
helpful, because that tells me I didn't leave it on the table at the restaurant 
I was at.

So, I think you could actually create a totally independent 'product' with that 
focus, using what you already have developed.  I would call it 'BT tracker' or 
'Bluetooth Tracker'.

Good luck!

I think I will give up on the name change.  I am not in this for money and I 
make none from it so why try to expand usage?
