An app to create a bunch of fake identities and use them in shops that want informations about you, even though they don't need it, such as your adress.
I build an Android app, built to help protect your daily privacy, by helping you managing a bunch of akes identities, that you’ll give in all the different shops you go.
For example, when tou go to a grocecy store and you want a loyalty card, you can create a brand new fake identity and give the infos to the vendor! THis way you’re not forced to expose private info, such as you name, adress or more, and you have the infos you gave stored to the app.
The app is build by 🤎 for Android, and completely free and open-source, with my previous knowledge from Dragon-Launcher (which isn’t btw abandonned, just paused lol)
Applied fixes from Android studio to reduce apk size and optimize. It all went to a dark commit I don’t want to know about 🤣
First version release! I did a clean job, the app is not perfect but its working, and I’ll ask my friends to test it out to give me a feedback!
Improved alot the edit screen and global hebavior. As this is another app I made, with lots of reused components, I’m thinking of making a lib with all my custom components so that I can share them across projects. Also, I think the app is ready for a first release, as it works, no thing more, nothing less. its not super pretty but it works, and I’m proud of it. I leanred the ROOM database system (which btw is super clean and cool, I think i’ll migrate my other app to that, at least partially)
Working on edit screen UI, I started by making all componants using standart blocks. Now, I’m fine tuning each of them to have a clean UI.
feat: add very basic editor and a placeholer when no identities are selected. Actually I’m really proud of the hilarious arrows
fix: corrected multiple things across the project, the app compiles and displays stuff correctly
Finally the code compiles, the first version is close, I simply need to. well build the ui. Actually I only have the core building blocks for everything, I’ll need to make a identities editor etc.. but making editors is actually what I like the most so it will be cool to code!
Deleting old unused libraries before I can start to make the UI. Basically, since I copied my other app, I have to delete all the stuff I con’t need (the points and nests stuff, etc…)
First commit incomming! I am recycling Dragon-Launcher’s code to build the first version of Aura, my future app. I have all the ideas in mind and therefore will build fast ig
