the thing is i can add species offline so means you cant see what i put till I go online??, although thats not a problem as it should update?, i will in time add mostly all my molt dates of my T's/true spiders, another thing you could put is alternative defensive T's, cause thairs many that have mood swings, i.e. not defensive/aggressive but want left alone wont threat pose or flick hairs etc, basically run, so you could put alternative, a place to write what thay have been doing without choosing whats available, on the other hand you have done well so far, best advice is app's do well with free writing and inputs.

For those who are having problems with the download link, please try this -> tarantulas.p3kb.com/downloading.php?f=1.0

@MarkmD, thanks, I'll see what I can do. Also, the software is offline. No need for an internet connection to see your data. :)

With regards to true spiders and trapdoors, I'm not familiar with them so I don't have data of their genus+species.
Maybe when I manage to make the option to add a custom/new genus+species, then I suspect this app should also work on them?

I'll try to add some of the missing genus on the next updates until the above feature is done.

Hi tisha, you dont need to put true spiders like trapdoors/orbweavers etc (future I suppose), just a suggestion, that I wasn't sure was theyr or not thair before I looked on the app, still not sure what it's for? can you see everybody's inputs on T's from the app? or is it for our own viewing offline?

I can't see anyone's inputs, it's just offline viewing for the owner/user. :)

I'm planning to make a web version though, for those who doesn't have an android device. But this will NOT happen anytime soon. :laugh:

Awesome app, I ended up downloaded it on my Samsung Galaxy S3 and it worked great. One bug though is that when I put in my P. formosa info and hit save it didn't actually save, but not a big deal. Also maybe add some more temperaments like defensive, skittish, timid, etc.

Hi Snitler, can you give me some info on how it happened? Like the data you've entered in each field, etc., so I can try to recreate and make some fixes?
Via PM if possible, thanks!

I may add more temperaments, but without icons for now. :giggle:

Hi Tisha,

Things I would add to my wishlist would be the ability to upload a pic for each T, (maybe above the name where the default tarantula pic is?), and the ability to edit the Last Fed field, the same way you can with Molt History.

Neither are a huge deal, just features I'd enjoy. Don't get me wrong, I love the app! Thanks for making it and offering it to us!

Pretty cool app. I keep track of all my molts on my computer so I probably won't be using that part of the app but I have been looking for a good way to keep track of feeding dates without having to write it down so this will work. A couple things: Lampropelma is not listed but I'm sure you have your hands full haha. Also, for the most part molts are just a series of dates so it would be easier to change the format for molt records to a date system like the "last substrate change" and any special notes regarding molt can be put in the notes field below if that makes sense. Anyway that's just my two cents. Cool app thanks allot.

Thanks for the feedback guys!

I'll add them to my todo this and see what can be done. :)

With regards to the T pic, when adding or editing a T, just long click on the default picture to change to your own T photo.

When adding a grammostola pulchripes it's location comes up as unknown instead of saying argentina etc.

Thanks Will, I think my genus/species data is a little out dated. :eek:oh:
Same with Nhandu tripepii, the data I got still uses vulpinus which was changed to tripepii. :bruised:
I think I'll just add an option to edit the country from Add/Edit T if the user knows the location or wants to add. :)

Also working on the option to add genus/species, this way, updates won't be needed just for missing species. :wink:

It's just a small problem overall the app is functional and easy to use! :D

Oh, I hadn't realized you had that already built in ;) Thanks!
Haha no prob, I also forgot to add a hint for that feature.

Thanks!

Very cool app all working well, thanks again.
Thanks!

Update:
Applied some of the replies here, I'll just do some test then give you guys the update.
Here are some of them:
1. Add genus & species
2. Update existing genus & species
3. Add custom temperament

I hope you guys would try it out when it's ready! :pray:

Android software that is...

Hi Guys,
I don’t know if this is the right section for this, sorry if not. :pray:

So I made a small Android application to organize my Ts.

A short background,
I've been using a free app I got from the play store, it actually works really well.
It gives you 5 T slots but you have to buy the app if you want more slots.
Currently, I only have 4 Ts so the 5 slots work for me.
The only thing that I don't like is that it loads really slow and no updates since I got it last March to fix some minor bugs.
So I decided to make my own, somewhat the same but faster and with virtually unlimited slots. :smile:

I thought of sharing this, so if you are interested and if you have an Android device you can download the app from here.

I've only been into Ts late this March (2013) so I don't have a lot of experience and info that I can apply to the app, I only based this from the app I was using and added some features that I'd want to see.
I think this should work for beginners to intermediate hobbyists, not sure with advanced/breeders.

Hope you guys try it out :)
If you do, please let me know if you have comments or suggestions to help improve the program.
The software is in its early stage of development with a lot of improvements to be done.
Bugs may also be present. :giggle:
Thanks for the app, it's awesome. It'd be cool if you made one for scorpions as well, or added scorpions to the current app

Only thing I've come across so far that would be nice is to be able to edit/undo feedings. I keep forgetting you have to open the spiders page and long press the default pic on there to change it and I keep long pressing on the list screen and marking them as fed. :banghead:

No actual problems with the program on my device though, this is perfect for a newbie like me.

Sure thing! :)

I've no idea about scorpions, but if this app will work for scorps except for the genus & species, then the next update will fix that coz you'll be able to add any genus & species you want. :wink:

I'm planning on adding a feeding history which will also enable deleting feed date/s, I also tend to press feed from time-to-time when I check and my T hasn't finished it's meal yet. But this may be added on a later update. :bruised:

I like the fact that you can feed them from the list view. It makes it quick and easy and that's primarily what I'm using this app for.
