Version 1.1.1

I've pushed out version 1.1.1. I not longer update the xml so the program won't tell you itself that there is an update. Instead I'm letting android show you the updates itself. It's probably a better solution.

The only changes I've put into this is some spelling fixes. I haven't been spending much time on this and plan to get back to it shortly.

I think as an experiment I may put a pay version of the program on the marketplace. Both versions will be identical. It's just a way to let people contribute who have asked about paying. I'll always keep it free though.

Thanks

Version 1.1.0

I'm a little late writing this. I posted up version 1.1.0 a week or so ago. It fixed a date bug as well as allowed background updates to twitter.

You can see quite a few people's twitters with this search.

I dont' know if all of those are from this application. But it seem slikely that quite a few are.

Thanks for all the e-mails. I hope everyone finds the will to quit smoking by whatever means.

Version 1.0.4

Made some minor changes to version 1.0.4.

I've changed the notifications to be less chatty. While many people have enjoyed the constant notifications quite a few others did not, plus they weren't really obeying the notifications rules set in the settings. So hopefully this will fix that issue.

I've also updated the Send Tweet and Copy to Clipboard buttons to also announce how many cigarettes you haven't smoked and how much of your life you've saved by not smoking.


What's next?
The next few things I'll be adding is allowing background updates to twitter. So that at your milestones it will automatically tweet your progress.

I'll then be changing the program slightly to allow multiple smokers to be tracked at one time. The way it saves now supports that, so I'll really only have to be changing the UI around.

After that, I may allow options to e-mail results, or SMS them. I've had a few requests for that.

I've also had some requests for an "I screwed up" button so the user could say, they cheated and had a cigarette. I'm pretty reluctant to add this functionality. You should always keep in mind, that if you ever smoke again, you've destroyed the benefits of having quit up to that point. The goal is to quit for good. You should reset your quit date/time every time you have a cigarette.

Thanks

Smoking Statistics

Welcome to the Smoking Statistics blog. I've had some great responses to the Smoking Statistics android application I created, but found the communication with the users to be difficult on the marketplace. This will be a much better way for people using the application to communicate with me, and for me to help users, and to let people know what's coming in future updates.

Thanks for all the support and feedback.
