Guild Leve Reset Timer - Android App

[Satiel]

Hello, everyone!
Satiel here. I recently have gotten into some Android Development and I was surprised that I couldn't find any Android apps that showed the Guild Leve reset time. So, I went ahead and created a first build of this for myself and figured some others might want to use it as well.

Right now, all it does is show you how much time left until the Leves reset. When it reaches (it should) just print out a message like "finished!" and all you have to do is close it and open it again and it'll show you how much time till the next reset (which will be 35:59:59 etc..).

That's all that I have right now, but I am thinking about working on it some more to make it a more robust application and adding things like:
* Notification when guild leves are close to resetting (like 5 minutes till reset)
* an actual GUI that's pleasant to the eye
* Widget to go along with the timer

and a few other things.

If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to post! If any bugs are found as well, I've only been able to test this on a couple virtual devices and my own Android device. I'm pretty sure I've accounted for everything (system time, daylights savings time, timezone) but there could always be some kind of unforeseen problem.

Here goes a quick screenshot (like I said, super simple looking right now :P):

Also, it actually ticks down, but you obviously can't see that from a single screenshot ;x

Enjoy!

::Edit:: To install this, just transfer this file to the SD card in your Android device and then use the app called "AppInstaller" (from the Android Market) to install it. I don't have any money to become a Publisher for the Market so this is how I'm distributing it for now.

Could you make it a widget?

[Satiel]

Definitely, I just have to learn how. As soon as I do, I'll make sure to post an updated version. Thanks for the support!

Sweetos!

btw publishing to market doesnt cost anything Google just take 5% of all earnings (thats costs now). You just submit it and it gets validated.

Keep widget sleek to match most launcher interfaces

Are you sure? I tried to sign up as a Publisher and it said there would be a $25 dollar fee.
And yes, I'll try to make a widget that's sleek and simple. Definitely.

They may have not changed it, they announced this at Google IO other week.

I'm surprised that android users don't have one since there are a few of the apple app store, that also give recipes and stuff like that though not sure if they are still being updated. I myself just use the clock on Yellow Gremlin.

[Satiel]

Yeah, I was surprised to not find something like it on Android. I made this just for myself (barely started learning Android dev) but I figured there might be someone out there who could find it useful :P

::Update::

I've made a widget for the app. I chose what I thought to be the easiest orientation. The background is just plain white, nothing fancy. I'm not sure yet how to have both the application and the widget in one-installation, so here goes the app for just the widget:

Once installed, simply long-hold a desktop --> widgets --> LeveTimer.

If anyone has any errors or anything, please post! I'm still working on this project to make it as smooth as possible
Thanks!

I have android and have been using ffxiv app since launch, I have several of them on my phone, not sure why you couldnt find any.

The one I like the best has a widget that displays current time, moon phase and gaurdian day, by clicking on it it will display guildleve reset time. This app is called "Eorzea Clock"

Also have an app called "FFXIV Server Status" it shows server status lol
And my third one is called "FFXIV Guide" It has recipe lists, item lists, etc.
