Shopulator 1.1 Released
An update to Shopulator has been posted to the Android Market.
Shopulator 1.1 Changelog:
- Added currency option; choose between dollars, pounds, euros and yen.
- Removed default “0.00″ price on the item entry screen for faster keying
- Improved list scrolling performance
- Added FAQs section to the options menu
Thank you for all of the feedback sent in so far! Please continue sending in suggestions and comments. Two popular requests right now seem to be barcode scanning and a screen keyboard. Taken from the FAQ:
Can you add barcode scanning for item prices?
Unfortunately, since barcodes only contain UPC codes, there is no way for Shopulator to pull item pricing data from them (especially from local grocery markets). While some price scanning applications exist (like ShopSavvy), they typically work for items where pricing can be found online, usually for electronics. Unfortunately, that kind of information isn’t really possible with things such as canned peas and bananas.Can you add an on-screen soft keyboard?
Since an official keyboard will be included in the next major Android update (Cupcake), Shopulator will simply take advantage of that standard soft-keyboard when it is released, which hopefully will be soon!
