    Hi boardsies :)

    I just wanted to let you know that I published a free app called AndroLotto on the free Android Market.

    It allows to see the latest results for your favourite games of chance. Supports Lotto, Lotto Plus 1, Lotto Plus 2, EuroMillions, EuroMillions Plus and Monday Million.

    You can find a description with screenshots here:

    http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.chipset.androlotto/

    Works on ANY android device, any resolution, any density :) including Tattoo/Nexus/Droid etc...

    Give it a shot and if you like/use it please consider click on an ad once in a while ;)

    Also, please report any bugs/requests to Droid.Support@gmail.com and I will do my best to address them.

    Thanks for reading!!

    Looks good. How do you set 2 sets of numbers for the lotto? I get a message saying "Already in the long list" when I enter a second set. Also, the same numbers apply for lotto, Plus 1 and Plus 2. Why do you have to enter them separately? Should I get some sort of visual cue on screen to show which ones came up?

    Last thing - you should redo your balls. :) There are white pixels around the outside and they could look better.

    Good work though....

    Hi Mr.E,
    for the moment its as simple as it gets really. But your suggestions have already been made by someone else, and I will release an update to allow for multiple sets to be entered etc..

    And about the balls :) ...
    they will be redone from scratch. I dont fancy them either, plus they can be optimized to reduce the total size of the app.

    thanks for your feedback!

    Hi all,

    just wanted to let you (and you Mr.E!) know that there was a BIG update for AndroLotto yesterday.

    See description and screenshots here : http://www.cyrket.com/search?q=andro+lotto

    Both from a graphics point of view (no more white pixeld eh MrE?) ;) and from a feature point of view. Multiple user draws for every game can now be added too.

    Also, if you are in the UK, please check out AndroLotto UK that supports

    Lotto
    EuroMillions
    Thunderball
    Daily Play
    Dream Number

    Let me know what you think and if you like/use them click on an ad once in a while!

    thanks

    Looks good Nick. Big improvement. Your balls are better looking now too. :)

    If I was to make one suggestion -- you still have to visually inspect your numbers to see if you've won. Is there a way you can highlight the winning numbers for each number that you have? Instead of putting "My Lotto Numbers" beside the balls, why not put a "Check" button or something like that? Then highlight the balls that match.

    Keep up the good work.

    yeah hehe the balls were a priority.. I took on some help for the graphical side of things.

    thanks for the suggestion too. should be feasible. I will get on to it soon then ;)

    It's a good start and certainly looks great, but it offers me (personally) no real functionality. The only reason i go onto the lotto website is to input my numbers and click "check", which saves me having to go to a shop and get them to scan my ticket. I don't think i've ever manually compared my balls with the lotto's....!

    As soon as you get that functionality though it'll be the perfect app and i'll reinstall.

    Good work so far though!

    Good work! Just re-downloaded there, maybe im being silly, but how do i "do a check" once i've set my numbers!?

    edit: AH! I see! That's a clever way of doing it! App's perfect now, well done. Here's a 5 star rating and a couple ad clicks for ya ;-)

    after you've set your numbers for a certain game, in the main page just click on the game and your numbers should appear in the top list. Matching numbers are.. Androids :)


    **edit: thanks :) appreciated!

    Hi all,

    For the joy of
    - extreme players
    - obsessive compulsive ROM flashers :D

    I have published an update (v.1.3.0) this weekend, that adds Backup and Restore feature for your own sets of numbers.
    You can access this function by pressing Menu at the main screen and choosing Backup&Restore.

    All of the AndroLotto family has been updated to 1.3.0 now.

    Next update will bring another handy feature to it, dont miss it ;)

    thanks also for all the feedback, its useful and most appreciated!

    if you could integrate this with a bar code reader that would be fantastic as I'm a lazy git.

    Actually if you can get it so that I can just scan the ticket when I buy it and it will let me know if I win or not, I think you will have the best app ever :D

    I think this was discussed in another thread, and deemed not feasible at the moment as the database polled when you scan a barcode is not of public domain, hence not accessible.

    Hi all,

    AndroLotto has been updated (twice actually) to version 1.4.2 last night.
    Unfortunately v.1.4.1 broke Hero/Magic (android 1.5) compatibility, but the good news is that I found the problem and it has been fixed in 1.4.2.

    new features are:
    - compatible with Froyo (install to sdcard etc)
    - more space in landscape

    Apologies for screwing up with 1.4.1. Please connect to the Android Market and update to the latest version.

    Any issues or feedback are most welcome as usual !
