Translucent tile app in works. What apps do you want?

[mylumia928]

So I read in the forums that people would like to see semi-transparent tiles. I am working on an app for that. Everything is going well, but I want to know what app you would like to see supported. Please list apps you would like to see to be able to do this. I have made Music(green) and Office so far.

Anyone?

What do you mean by translucent, like a green Music tile except faded with the wallpaper?
That'd be beautiful.

I'd say its safe to do the basics, OneNote, Nokia's apps, Facebook...

But Office! Wow, really?

 

[mylumia928]

That's what I'm saying

 

[Aiden M Swisher]

Wow great idea. How much does it cost. I'd really appreciate it if you did office

 

[mylumia928]

Ill make 3 tiles at once for free. 3+ will be 99 cents.

 

[mylumia928]

Version 1.0 is complete with 12 apps. Check store soon! Comment any other apps you would like to see.

Great! Though the colour of the Music app is not the same as the emerald green for XBox apps. Can you include Line and Facebook Messenger?

 

[mylumia928]

Is it not the emerald green? I used the actual tile for reference. Could it be the transparency effect? I'll check on that. Will work on including line and FB messenger! Thanks for the input

Also, did you purchase the app? Just asking. If you did, is everything working fine?

The colors don't correspond to the native apps colors. Nice work though. Maybe ill purchase on the next update if things are fixed.

 

[mylumia928]

The colors not corresponding is an artifact of the seen a transparent nature of the tile. Otherwise, the tiles would be a solid color. I think that is what you are noticing.

UPDATE:
Pushed out an update that hopefully fixes an issue with the full app not unlocking after purchase. If any further issues occur, please post here, and I will fix ASAP

But the color is not transparent. Where is the light passing through the tile?

I like the idea though. Good job.

Give me light through the tiles like iOS and ill buy it.

You are up to something unique here. Don't stop short of gold. You have work to do.

Lets see it.

Good job man. Get this work patent asap. Your work is unique. It just needs some touches. Good luck with your app. Thanks for developing for Windows Phone.

Permitting light to pass through doesn't mean there is light. Think of the background image on your screen as emitting light.
