Even though the app was almost ready, it took some time to get the meta stuff straight.

  1. finishing up the last tests
  2. versioning
  3. signing with own keystore (the ADT-Eclipse Plug-in is really helpful with it’s export wizard)
  4. creating google developer account and pay 25 bucks for an android market account (per account, not per app)
  5. uploading your app which includes the following steps:
    1. uploading your signed file
    2. creating screenshots of your app (2 is max.)
    3. entering name & description for your app
    4. find out which category of your app is appropriate (found travel and think that’s the one)
    5. read another 2 agreements to make sure it is really ok to upload

It’s finally done and my first Android application is now available on the android market.

Metricdroid

Calculate US-Units to Metric-Units and back. Also includes temperature conversion and measuretables for shoes, cloths and chemise seperated for women, men and kids.

The idea for this application was already born in 2005 when I had my 7 month internship in california. At that time I developed this application for windows mobile devices and now ported it to android.
