The Fast Dialer app has been updated. The new version includes some bug-fixes (huge thanks to everyone that reported a problem with the app, either directly, or through the Google Play store reports). Details about the fixes:
Log data on some phones (Sony mostly) was not updated properly, now it is working as it should.
There were reports of crashes related to contacts without phone numbers, that is fixed now.
The “call” button was not so easy to press on certain phone models with high resolution displays, that is corrected.
Version 3 of the popular SMS Composer for the SmartWatch introduces spelling suggestions. Note that it is not the same as T9 typing prediction. Due to that novelty, the look and the functionality of the app have changed. The caps and language switching are now activated on a button, i.e. dedicated area on the screen, because the swiping up and down actions are reserved for scrolling through the suggestions list.
Another new feature is the saving of the sent SMS messages in the default messaging app. Enjoy!
Presenting the Orthodox Christian calendar in French language. The calendar includes the full calendar of feast and saints. It does not require Internet connection, and it can display both the old (Julian) and the new (Gregorian) calendar (there is a setting for the Calendar style).
I’m glad to present the Orthodox Christian calendar in Chinese language.
As with the other editions, the calendar includes the full calendar of feast and saints and it doesn’t require internet connection. It can display both the old (Julian) and the new (Gregorian) calendar.
Introducing v.2.0 of the SMS Composer for Sony’s SmartWatch. Now, you can predefine 12 SMS message templates in the app’s settings and use them from your SmartWatch.
Templates are the same as predefined messages, they are something more. Templates means that you can use codes such as %name in your predefined message, and upon sending that code will be replaced with the recipient’s name.
The codes are available in two languages, English and Russian. The full list of codes and their meanings is: %name (or %имя) – will be replaced with the full name of the contact, %given (or %и) – the given (first) name, %mid (or %п) for the middle name, %family (or %фам) – the family (last) name, %pre (%т) – name’s prefix and %suf (%суф) – name’s suffix.
It’s up to you to be creative with the templates 🙂

I’ve just published an update for the Log for SmartWatch app. It fixes the problem which required for people to manually trigger a screen refresh, and apart from that, adds also the relative time of call in the details screen. Was badly missed, by me at least.
So, make sure your app is up-to-date!
Ever wondered how fast you were travelling, on a boat, in a bus or a taxi, or while riding your bike, but had no means at hand to find out? I often did. That’s why I felt the need of the Speedometer / Compass app for Sony’s Smart Extras – the SmartWatch and the Smart Wireless Headset Pro.
It’s an app that uses your phone’s GPS capabilities to read the current speed and direction of movement. Displayed are: the speed, clock, run-time, maximal speed reached, distance passed, phone battery status and the direction of movement.
You need to point SmartWatch / Smart Wireless Headset Pro towards the direction of movement in order to correctly read the compass indication, i.e. the green arrow that points towards North.
I intended the first Speed Dial app for Sony’s Smart Extras to be extension of the Fast Dialer app, but I’ve received quite some criticism from people who – despite the clear description – were surprised that the Fast Dialer app was required for the Speed Dial to work on the SmartWatch.
Thus, here’s a standalone version of the Speed Dial app for both Sony’s SmartWatch and Smart Wireless Headset Pro that has the same functionality but no additional requirements. It makes the calls itself, and the speed dial numbers are configured in the apps preferences.
On the SmartWatch long tap on the number to initiate a call.
