Added a second page with notes section to enter for 5 more T's, or your 5 existing logged T's

Hi Guys,

Being a High School Junior in the top 6.5% of my class, I thought I might put myself to use.

I just submitted ArachnoLog to Google Play (the Android Market).

This app is designed to help you keep track of your 8 legged collection.

Whilst simple and plain, I designed it so it's easy to use and provides valuable information.

You can enter the Latin name of the T, the given name (or number) of that T, last feed date, and last molt date, as well as a small picture of the specimen.
Easy record keeping for basic info about tarantulas was the whole goal here.

This is intended for Android Phones only. I might end up making a tablet version later on

To use it, enter the values for your t's according to the corresponding columns, then hit the "Press to Save" button which will trigger a vibration and a sound to confirm you have done so.

If you don't, the work will be lost or rolled back to the previous entry's statistics.

Selecting a picture for your T just involves hitting the select button on the far right column and choosing a picture from the gallery. Alternatively, you can access the camera right through the application by hitting the "Take a Photo" button. Once you take the picture, you can either hit "retake," "done," or "cancel." If you hit done and accept the photo, follow the "Select" button procedure.


This app is completely free on the market. There are only 5 rows for a total of 5 tarantulas as of now.
I plan to expand the application further. ALL comments, questions, or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Here's a screenshot. The app is on Google Play (click google play to get there)

Nice! Maybe my junk phone can actually use it! If I can download it I'll let you know how I like it

Nice. Definitely need to expand the number of entries, as many keepers have far more than 5 tarantulas. Also, an added column for making notes would be nice.

Very glad to finally have a record on my phone.

Quick question: Is it possible to open the pictures and view them in a larger format? I'm unable to do so.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I'll get to more coding and probably have an update out later today. Not sure what I can do about the notes column though. I'll see if I can add in another screen dedicated just for them.

Still only 5 entries??
I have 33+ G pulchra that I would need to enter, not to mention a few other species.
