Eclipse UI Tips now come on time


The first version of the Eclipse UI Tips for Android reached the astonishing adoption of 18 installations. 13 of which are still active. I am happy that there are people who find this app interesting and useful. Special thanks go to Lothar who submitted the only review in Google Play. I really appreciate it! And I really do care for the feedback that reaches me. 

A few days ago I published an update of the application. As requested, the time for the tip of the day is now configurable. It is not fixed to 8:30 am anymore and you can set it to whatever time you like.

Another improvement is that the welcome screen now includes a link to the User Interface Guidelines wiki page. This is a short term response to the request that it should be possible to browse all of the guidelines without waiting for the tip of the day to come. I will work on a more integrated solution later.

The new version includes also some minor improvements in the layout and a couple of bug fixes.

That's for now, folks! If you want to share any feedback, you are warmly welcome to write a review in Google Play or submit an issue in github.
