Reminds me of one of when I made my first android app way back in the early days of android; it made the phone scream whenever it detected it was falling.

Detecting a fall is pretty hard, especially if the device is tumbling rather than accelerating in a particular axis. So congratulations on that.

Well technically it wasn't just falls, it pretty much activated on any sudden movement lol.

Now someone needs to make a "shake phone to scream" app

Reminds me of that webcomic strip where the scientist proudly announces he made a robot that screams, and his colleague asks him why.
