I would like to present to you Anchorman. My first personal Android project that I managed to finish. I don't know about you, but for me this took a lot of willpower, love, time, sweat and endurance to get to this point. A bit of advice for newbies at this point: First step is always the hardest and the scariest. At the same time, I am happy and grateful now I've made that step and learned a lot along the way. It will only get easier from now on. Enough about my rant, that is not what you are here for :)
What is Anchorman you ask? Anchorman is a Text-To-Speech news reader app. It delivers you the latest news on the go. For ease of use you have a variety of different news categories from GoogleNews. At the tip of your finger you have access to sports, tech, world, entertainment news and etc.
If that is too cool for you, you have an option of entering a custom URL of an article and anchorman will give its best to read it. Don't worry, you have the share link option, so you can share that article with all your friends and family, and also you can load that webpage to your phone's browser from the app.
Programming/Design in this project was done by yours truly and Graphic Design was done by a good friend of mine Vladimir Radovic
I wanted this app to have a mascot and Vladimir kicked some booty and created this lovable character. Now when I think about it, we still haven't given him a name, so if you have any ideas in the meantime, use the comment section bellow.
This is a free version of the app, and I have a lot of ideas prepared for this project if it attracts enough interest.
You can download the app from the GooglePlay store at : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=markomarks.core.anchorman
If you have the time and will, download the app, take it for a spin, comment it and give it a 5-star rating *wink* *wink*.
