The app is available at : https://play.google.....ragialnotifier
EDIT:
A link to the Java library, if anyone wants to visit it. http://titu1994.gith...agial-Searcher/
Sub EDIT : @Tribe, the Java lib has a GUI already. It should not take too much to make it similar to the Android app and email the user when it finds a sale item. I'm busy with studies at the moment so i'll have to put it on the back burner for now. :/
EDIT 2:

Hi everyone, this is my first post in the last ~7 years
Well it seems Ragnarok wasn't done with me, so I came back to the Chaos server (Renewal) and I found the best new addition to the game (unofficial), Ragial.com.
Well, it obviously helped me get some pretty good deals on items, but having to repeatedly spam refresh on chrome gets boring real fast...
So I developed an Android app, for 4.0+ to do the checking for me. I part time as an android developer so I added some basic functionality as well, such as notifications, making it work with Android Wear and made it look good (Material design, ^-^).
Here's some screenshots :
It is just a basic app right now, with the ability to get the item details, allow you to watch certain items and to be notified of when they are on sale.
Here's where I'm having trouble. I don't wanna get Gravity or the owner of Ragial pissed, since I believe Ragial is one of the 2 "allowed external services" to operate on Ragnarok 1. I don't believe the app is in violation of Gravity's rules, but it obviously puts a strain on Ragial.com itself. Ive made a few things to prevent drowning Ragial.com in requests, and in the way it works, it should not be any different than Ragial.com having an additional user every few hours per app user.
I don't intend to publish the app if it violates any game rules, and I obviously won't charge anything. Ragial is free, and depends on donations, so I've added that as well. I'd like to contact the developer of Ragial to seek his permission, but I can't find any details other than the PayPal account in the donation link...
Well, thats my question. Does this app violate any Ragnarok rules. I'm ready to publish or remove the app at any time from the play store, if it is requested by either Gravity staff / GMs / Ragial owner.
