Fuzzy Watchfaces for Android Wear
My first Android Wear app, or Watchface bundle, to be precise. I’ve been told that other kind-of fuzzy watchfaces do exist for Android Wear, but they’re not as beautiful as this app 😉
Check it out!

Presenting to you the coolest, yet, app for Sony’s SmartWatch devices (1 and 2, SmartWatch 3 is running Android Wear, thus it is not supported). Installing the Android Wear app, however, might improve this app’s functionality.
The app enables you to reply to messages from many different sources
- Text messages (SMS)
- Skype
- Viber
- Messenger (Facebook)
- Telegram
- Hangouts
and more!
You can reply by either selecting from a set of predefined messages, or type the message on your watch, using the advanced T9 keyboard with spelling suggestions, available for a number of languages:
- English
- Russian
- Italian
- German
- French
- Portuguese
- Greek
- Serbian
- Croatian
- Slovenian

Full dialer for Garmin Connect IQ
Finally, the full, advanced dialer for Garmin Connect IQ devices. Only the full touch screen devices are supported: currently that is only Epix and the newly announced Vivoactive HR. The old Vivoactive’s screen is not full touch, it registers only 9 touch areas.
The full and detailed description can be read in the Garmin Connect IQ app store: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/b6f1ee3e-7663-4177-b1ae-8ce641631684
An Android companion app is required: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eir.garmin.dialer
Call and SMS Log for Garmin Connect IQ
The second way, next to speed dialing, to quickly call a number from the smart watch is definitely the call log. Here’s the app for Garmin Connect IQ devices. It works nicely with both touch screens and physical keys.

Speed dial for Sony SmartBand Talk SWR30
The classic app that enables quick dialing of predefined 9 contacts is now available for the Sony SmartBand Talk SWR30. The contacts are selected in the app preferences on the phone, and on the band itself UP and DOWN buttons are used for scrolling through the list and the call is made by a TAP on the screen.
Enjoy!

Log for the Sony SmartBand Talk SWR30
Using the call log as an address book? Me too. That’s why I find this app to be a must for every Sony SmartBand Talk SWR30 owner. You can scroll through the list of recent calls by using the UP and DOWN buttons, and once you select who you want to call, you tap on the screen to make the call.
Optionally, the text messages (SMS) can be displayed in the same list.

Speed Dial for the Pebble watch
I just published my first Pebble app. It’s a simple speed dialer, the watch initiates a call on the phone. The contacts are preselected via the phone companion app.
Give it a try. Search for “Speed dial” on your Pebble-connected Android device, or follow this link: http://apps.getpebble.com/en_US/application/5626ae103b5b31492e00008a
Приложение «Апологетика: неоязычество»
18 сентября на VIII Межправославной встрече по изучению религий и деструктивных культов, проходящей в Словении, священник Георгий Максимов провел презентацию уникального апологетического приложения для смартфонов и планшетов.
Оно представляет собой подборку материалов, посвященных не только самому феномену неоязычества, но и опровержению расхожих утверждений неоязычников. Материалы распределены по рубрикам: «Мифы неоязычников о христианстве», «Крещение Руси», «Древнее язычество», «Неоязычество (родноверие)», «Что неоязычество дало России?» и «Рассказы бывших неоязычников».
Приложение будет полезным не только для православных миссионеров, но и для более широкого круга людей, интересующихся упомянутыми вопросами.
Приложение разработано Православным миссионерским обществом имени прп. Серапиона Кожеозерского.

Audiometer for Samsung Gear
The Audiometer app is now available for Samsung Galaxy Gear watches as well.
As reminder, the Audiometer uses the microphone of your phone / tablet to measure the sound level, and display the result on your watch.
Besides the actual sound level, the maximal and the average sound levels are displayed at any time.
Of course, this values cannot be taken for granted, hence the disclaimer: the results may be different than what a professional Sound Meter device would measure.
