Quoter: a small Android app, shipped
A quote app on Google Play with voice playback, notifications, and quote-image sharing.
View on Google Play- 1K+Google Play download threshold
Google Play showed 1K+ downloads and a March 14, 2026 update when checked for the October 5, 2026 review. This is a store threshold, not an exact install or active-user count.
My contribution
- Designed, built, and published the app.
- Added text-to-speech playback, notifications, and copy/share actions.
- Built quote-image sharing and handled the Play Store release.
Overview
Quoter is my personal Android app, published under Damercy. It keeps the interface simple and gives quotes a few useful ways to reach people.
Problem
I wanted to build and publish a small app of my own, including store packaging and release care.
Constraints
- A solo project needed a small, maintainable feature set.
- The quote should remain the focus of the screen.
Approach
- Built a simple quote-reading interface.
- Added voice playback and quote notifications.
- Made quotes available to copy or share as images.
- Published the app on Google Play.
Implementation notes
A small feature set
Reasoning
Reading, listening, and sharing were enough without filling the interface with extras.
Tech stack
- Kotlin
- Android
- Text-to-Speech
- Notifications
- Google Play Console
Result and impact
Quoter is publicly available on Google Play and remains a project I can develop outside a team's roadmap.
Learnings
- Publishing includes screenshots, store copy, and release checks, not just a working app.
- Keeping the scope small helps me finish the parts users actually see.
