Hey guys, I just released my newest app GT6 Tunes and Tips, or simply your GT6 Home for mobile. It has everything you want. Wallpapers, Unlimited Tune Saving, Track Specific Tuning, Trophy CheckList, Latest News from Google and GTP, Links to all the best garages, GT6 sites, threads, and coming soon, a Base Tune Generator, Driving Tips and more GT6 Gear. I'm planning on lots and lots more features as well as a full walkthrough. Give it a look. New content coming every day or every other day as I play through the game.

Tablet version isn't ready yet but will be soon!

Below are some simple banners anyone can use if they'd like! The second ones say the same as the previous ones just transparent.

Hey man, I was just wondering... Is there going to be an iOS version? My Galaxy is out of charge and I cannot find the charger... An iOS version would also be pretty cool if you could make it :P
Also, the new GT6 app looks GREAT!
I have the GT5 app which is also really good :)

I'm glad you like them bro! You'll notice that you're now included in the links list and I'm working hard on the tuning stuff tonight! iOS is going to be tough. I taught myself Android because it was free, I have ZERO schooling in programming so if this app takes off then yea I would LOVE to build an iOS version but this will really have to take off.

Thanks so much for your support Rarz, it's guys like you that make my app better and better!

Hey mate, I believe it's because it's pre 3.0 but either way you can directly download the app now from post 3 here! Basically my app uses a feature called the actionbar and it isnt compatible with android 2.3 so I didnt want to have a bunch of folks with the app breaking since they cant use that feature.

Let me know if it works for you once you download it! 👍

Thanks mate! It's not fully set up for tablets in terms of layouts just yet but it's still fully functional just not as pretty.

Seems there's a few devices still getting an out of memory error that I'm trying fix then it's onto building better tablet layouts. Hope you enjoy it! Cheers

Glad to hear it, also can I just say I wish I could afford the One. My friend has one and it's so brilliantly built.

Thanks for the support! I have a real job too but I'm working hard on this every day to try to improve it for you guys. I really appreciate the encouragement. It really does make a difference.

My pleasure! I'm looking forward to giving you guys more features! Just got the framework for the user tuned garage set up. You should all see that in the next 24 - 48 hours so start sending in your setups! Also another exclusive garage has started releasing their work so that will also be in the next update!

Thanks for the support mate. happy to help!:cheers:
 
Just downloaded the app, looks great, though I did notice an error for the info for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway under tracks. You said that the course is home to the world renound Indy 500 NASCAR race each year, but the Indy 500 is for Indy cars and the NASCAR race is called the Brickyard 400.

I was also going through some of the other track info and I noticed that you have the links for tsukuba and Suzuka circuits backwards.

Hey! Thanks for the heads up! I'll get on that asap! Thanks for checking it out too!

Will tunes etc show up automatically in the app or how is it designed?
Click to expand...

Go into > Tuning garage > find a tune

You'll see all the garages there. The user garage got it's first entry the other day and it'll be viewable in next update tonight or tomorrow.

I wanted to learn android programing. Any tips, sites, or book suggestions? How long did it take you? I work long hours at times so might have max a couple hours weekly or so... should I forget it?

Hey mate, the best thing for me was thenewboston series on YouTube. I read two books before that but better learned the stuff on YouTube cause I could see it in action.

It's been 2 plus years and honestly I'm not a pro, I'll be lucky if I make $5/hr on the time I spent building this app but....

It's been a ton of fun, and I took probably a 6 month break in that 2 years. If you have any programming experience you'll learn much quicker I did. I'm always glad help where I can.

If you have a great idea for an app then pursue it, I'm still hoping I make it.
