Mileage

Lost my data Been using this app for a few months and was happy with it but had to wipe my phone the other day and lost all the data from this app. The auto backup was turned on but had seemingly not been working, and didn't notify of problems. Since wiping and reinstalling I tried to export after capturing a fill-up but it failed without saying why. On a hunch I created a mileage folder on my sdcard after which I could export. Perhaps the absence of the mileage folder is what prevents auto backup from working too. If so the app should create it as the user has no idea their data is not being backed up.

Simple Scrum Poker

Not that useful Real cards let you fan to quickly select one. The need to scroll through the cards to find the one you want make this app less than useful. I think a set of numbered thumbnails or buttons allowing you to select the one you want with a single press, would be a better interface for a scrum poker app. One press to select a card and another to return to the thumbnails should be all you need.

OI Notepad

To slow to create a note I didn't get past the point where it takes three button presses and taps to start writing a note. Menu button, tap add note, tap in note or press menu to bring up keyboard. Should have a visible button to add a note and should open the keyboard automatically.

W.A.R.P.

The "How to Play" is not very informative; some text with the animations might help.

Asteroids

Useless as you can't control rotation of the ship.

PHOforPHO

Uninspiring UI. Could make more use of graphics.
