A launcher app for Android, intended for oldies
- It registers as app launcher (that means it is called when the phone boots and the home button is pressed).
- It let's the user decide if he wants to call someone or wants to watch images
- It reads the contact list and displays all contacts that have an image and a phone number (only the first number is used!).
- Every contact is displayed as a large button with the contact's image on it.
- On click either a call to the contact is initialized or the sms-app is opened to show images sent via mms
- In image-mode the gallery can be opened
- Calling the ambulance is added on top of the list in the call-screen.
- Language: US english, german, french and brazilian portugese. (the medical emergency number is localized, of course)
- Because they are available everywhere and every phone has an app to use them installed
- Because it is the only way (i found out) to carry the user right to the newest images
- I'd recommend to use QKSMS as an SMS/MMS - app because this copies all images automatically to the gallery and because it's free (https://github.com/moezbhatti/qksms)
