I had an occasional crash yesterday while testing, but I haven't been able to get them with sufficient regularity to fix them.

I can also send you a special version with extra logging.

You've got mail! Just in case google thinks I sound spammy ...

Got it. You actually caught two bugs: a 0% display bug with the slider that I also caught last night and a crash bug that I didn't catch, but now it's fixed.

A new version of the trial, with another 7 days of trial is here and I emailed you a full version. I'll post the new versions on the Market and in the Appstore as soon as I hear from you that this one works for you.

You are kind of awesome! 104 seems to be fine so far. I've only beat on it for about 10 or 15 minutes but I haven't been able to break it.

I'll definitely let you know if anything comes up.

I really love this app! I'm looking forward to it getting into the Kindle Fire store. My sister was on the fence about the Fire because she thought it was too bright but the second she saw this she snagged one online. Too bad you can't get a commission! At the very least, you'll get another buyer when she gets her Fire.

My trial just expired and the app still isn't in the store. I redownloaded and it got extended for three days. Any chance we can buy it elsewhere? Can I paypal you?

It said "three days", but actually it's 7. :-)

I could sell it directly, but the problem is with updates. I don't want to be emailing updates of the full version for the lifetime of the product.

Amazon developer system doesn't tell me anything about Kindle approvals. They don't even tell me when and if they approve or reject an app for the Kindle: when they approve it, it just shows up on the app store on my wife's Kindle, and when they don't approve it, it doesn't. :-( With my LunarMap, they rejected it for the Kindle but didn't tell me until I specifically made inquiries. I'll specifically make inquiries about ScreenDim.

Screen dim is officially on the amazon app store but says it's not compatible for the Kindle Fire. Go figure?

What about another sales outlet like 1mobile? My trial ran out yesterday so I downloaded the new link you posted. I guess I'm set for a few more days. Would love to purchase this.

This app rocks! Love the presets. Making use of all of them.

I might as well uninstall Screen Filter.

I really like it too. Just waiting patiently

for it to be available on Amazon's site for the Fire or another download site.

Would it help if we emailed Amazon and asked when it would be available for the Fire?

Agreed it's great!

I bought the Market version then sideloaded it on to the Fire.

You can try, but they'll probably tell you they don't know. :-( No worries--it'll be there or I'll have an alternate distribution channel.

Well, I sent them Feedback asking that it be made available for the Fire. Hope it helps.

Ok it's live on amazon. I downloaded it based upon everyones recommendation, now does anyone have any good presets that they prefer. I currently keep my Kindle set at 15% all of the time.
