Pocket PDA V0.8.0 - A Toy OS

Games
#1

Hi guys,

I’ve finished my second game (app): Pocket PDA, which is an OS turns your Arduboy into a PDA. It’s a lot of fun to play with it although the Flash and RAM is limited.

It includes seven Apps for the moment, but can barely hold more. I’d do some Flash usage reducing before introducing other Apps :S

Cool! Reminds me of some old apps for PDA’s. I was thinking about doing one of these just for fun.

Thank you guys :smile:

@crait Would you add this to the Arduboy Manager?

#5

If you provide a .arduboy file, I certainly will!

Have sent you an email. Or you may use the one in the repo: https://github.com/pocket-arduino/pocket_pda/blob/master/out/pocket_pda.arduboy

Okay, got it on the repo, finally. Also, this is actually pretty cool. You should include arrow or something to show that there is another page of apps. :smiley:

Try to hold UP key while turning ON the Arduboy and try again. If that does not work check: How to Reset Arduboy if it's Bricked

I found a small error in the calculator app where pressing 5 would show 4 and not 5

static void onButton5Clicked(PdaOS* os, AppCalculator* app) {
onButtonNumClicked(os, app, ‘4’)

should be

static void onButton5Clicked(PdaOS* os, AppCalculator* app) {
onButtonNumClicked(os, app, ‘5’);
