Make a shortcut to the site on your home screen

... then you'd have to use a mobile browser. And those don't work too well.

What possible purpose could an LTT app serve that the mobile website doesn't?

It would be a lot more streamlined, more responsive, and (not sure if mobile already does this) it can give push notifications.

Want to know which mobo to get?

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

try to make an app that fixed a real life problem, 

 

like an idea my friend had was to make an AR app that showed where sewer pipes are in AR, so say you go to dig a whole you use the app to see any waterlines or electrical lines in real time via the camera.

 

now you'd need a lot do that that, as youd need a plan of your city's sewers pipes and stuff. and need it to be very accurate in the AR space so they dont dig and hit it expecting not to.

 

but its just an idea. that app might be more on googles level but idk

If you want to argue with me, and you probably will please PM me, no need to ruin threads becase you dont like how I am.

 

Ask me how I made 100k selling illegal narcotics!

Spoiler

and you think im joking, Did a lot of wrong to get my money right.

I look up to Larry Hoover.

Your homies loyal 'til the one time you tell 'em no

they made the mobile version of the site really really good. I have a chrome shortcut on my phone to go to LTT. its as fast as the site on computer.

 

if you look on here a website app has been talked about forever and will never happen.

That's probably because someone *cough* @colonel_mortis *cough* decided there wouldn't be a web API. :P

I'm a 15 year old app developer and I need some ideas for an app? What can ideas can you guys think of?! 

I can't really think of apps I'm really missing in life which are simple enough for a hobby project.

 

A Git GUI client which doesn't use Electron and is cross-plat would be super awesome but that'd probably require more than just 1 person.

 

I actually would like a browser extension which removes social media buttons, trackers and would allow me to blacklist 1 or more website(s) whilst I'm doing work.

 

Perhaps a cross-plat app which lets me only run certain apps when doing work. E.g. user clicks button to say they're in Working mode and then the app stops any non work apps from being used.

 

I'd also recommend playing around with 1 or 2 open source projects on GitHub just to get an idea of how people write software and what they do. it shouldn't be something too difficult but it shouldn't seem ridiculously easy.

 

Generally though, I'd probably recommend trying to ask people around you what problems or issues they experience with apps or programs and go from there.

Judge a product on its own merits AND the company that made it.
