General:

The application opens with a welcome and a rendition of the ABC song. The initial start-up screen shows all the letters of the alphabet - the sound of each letter can be heard by pressing the relevant letter (please note that a long press on the letter 'Z' will allow the ABC song to be repeated). The buttons at the bottom of the main screen transfer the application into either ABC mode or Zoo Quiz mode. There is an option to record yourself singing along with the ABC song by pressing the microphone image situated between the 2 buttons at the bottom of the screen - this allows about 25~26 seconds of audio to be recorded (a progress dialogue will be displayed during this time - the recording can be cancelled at any time by pressing the 'Cancel Recording' button on the progress dialogue). After pressing the image, count 1, 2 and the song will start for you to sing along with - the recorded audio can be played back by long pressing the letter 'Y'. If the recording is made when using headphones, the end result will be the recorded voice - if, when recording, headphones are not used, the application's version of the song will also be heard in the background of the finished recording. The ability to record within the application can be turned On or Off in the 'Settings' tab (the default is On). If recording mode is set to Off, long pressing on the letter 'Y' is automatically disabled.

ABC Mode:

The ABC application can be viewed in two modes - the first mode (the default) displays a word and picture relating the letter to the first letter of the word; the second mode displays a word and picture where the word contains at least one instance of the letter - the choice of modes can be made via the 'Settings' tab in the options menu which can be accessed from the start-up screen. There is an option for the user to record their own voice by pressing the microphone image situated between the 2 buttons at the bottom of the screen - this allows about 10 seconds of audio to be recorded - for example, this function can be used to check the user's pronunciation of the letter and/or name of the pictured animal, bird or fish against that in the application - the recorded audio can be played back by long pressing the 'Repeat' button. The recording for each screen remains available until it is recorded over by a new recording and can be replayed next time the screen appears by long pressing the 'Repeat' button - if recording mode is enabled and no recording has been made for a specific screen, long pressing the 'Repeat' button will result in the application's version of the audio being played. If recording mode is set to Off, long pressing on the 'Repeat' button is automatically disabled.

Zoo Quiz Mode:

In Zoo Quiz mode, the user enters the name of a pictured animal, bird or fish by pressing the relevant button. The quiz can be set up to include 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 pictures via the 'Settings' tab (the default is 20 pictures). During the quiz, a running score of correct answers is shown at the top of the screen and a final score is provided to the user at the end of each quiz. Audio in this mode can be set On or Off via the 'Settings' tab (the default is On).
       
Settings:

In addition to the choice of display modes and recording modes, the 'Settings' tab also allows a choice of pronunciation for the letter Z - i.e. in either US English (the default) or UK English, plus whether to display the letters alphabetically (the default) or randomly and whether to enable vibration mode for the buttons (the default is On).

Information:

Move to SD Card supported for Android 2.2+ users – looks good on either phones or tablets.

This is an ad-supported app - an ad-free paid version is also available for a nominal US$ 0.99 but, as always, it's probably best to test the free version first before parting with your hard-earned cash :) - to download the paid version, please search for Zoo Alphabet (adfree)

* decimal mode
* fractions mode
* running total of each calculation shown as it is entered
* full text of the calculation is displayed as it is entered
* the output text can be set to scroll either horizontally (the default) or vertically
* full text of each calculation is stored in the history
* results of each calculation can be reclaimed from the history and reused in future calculations
* a range of colour schemes to suit different moods

A help section, where the main functions of the application are explained, can be accessed via the menu.

Please note that this calculator only provides basic arithmetical operations - if you require more complex operations, it is recommended that you download the developer's Scientific Calculator

Unit Converter (adfree) (v. 1.0.7)

roaming squirrel опубликовал приложение 2011-10-05
(обновлено 2013-08-13)

Convert various units easily using this handy application - a number of categories are included as follows:

* Distance
* Area
* Volume
* Weight
* Density
* Speed
* Pressure
* Energy
* Power
* Frequency
* Magnetic Flux Density
* Dynamic Viscosity
* Temperature
* Heat Transfer Coefficient
* Time
* Angles
* Data Size
* Currency Exchange Rates
* Fuel Efficiency

Please note that the application now requires internet access in order to provide the up-to-date currency exchange rates

It's very simple to use - enter the number, press the Convert button and, in the screens that follow, choose the category, the unit to convert from and the unit to convert to - it can handle both decimals and negative numbers as required

This functionality already comes bundled with the developer's Scientific Calculator application but the functionality also works well as a stand-alone application for those not needing the full functionality of a scientific calculator

(обновлено 2012-10-30)

This is a personal budgeting application based on Mr. Micawber's principle that, to ensure a happy life, expenses should never exceed earnings - the application works as follows:

* Income and Expenditure are classified into categories for easy sorting and reference
* A default set of categories is included in the application - this set can be added to and/or the contents modified or deleted via the 'Maintenance' tab in the Menu to suit both local language and personal preference
* Entries are added by choosing the date and category and then entering the amount - if desired, a short description can also be added via the 'Details' field
* Existing entries can be modified or deleted as required
* Reports are available as both summary and detailed tables and via summary pie charts
* Data from the tables can be exported in csv format to the sdcard
* A display currency can be chosen - the default is 'No Currency'.
* A password can be set, changed and removed as required - the default is 'No Password'

The simple format of the application allows income and expenses to be routinely tracked over time whilst requiring the minimum of effort to keep the information updated.
