Next Arsenal Match Challenges

NextArsenalMatch was an Android app project that I had done a year back. Dedicated to all Arsenal fans to get the basic information on what and when the next Arsenal match is?

This project was a test attempt into making a live app for Arsenal fans to keep track of the next match. The idea was to use an offline database to store the match details. So for each schedule change, cup exit or cup progress, I had to manually update the database and upload the new build almost every other week as the season progressed.

It seems that an easier alternative to this app can be found on Google Now itself. One can easily track the upcoming match details by adding your favorite sports team. There is as well the official Arsenal Android app which gives more information on Arsenal.



The benefit of developing this app was the contribution of a CopiedDataBaseHelper file for android projects that can use a db file from assets. This file is part of the AeAppsLib.
