I have used Automagic very successfully to create an "APP" to interface with Onion. Automagic allows you to create widgets and a basic UI, and through the use of onion cloud you can control the Onion as well. I use json in python to create a json file that outputs all the variables I wish to see on my phone. Automagic can decode json to get at the variable very easily as well. The best advantage of Automagic is that you can change the way things work "on the go" without needing a computer to compile, etc... Thats mostly the reason why I chose to use Automagic rather than write my own app. Here is a thread that might help: http://automagic4android.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5866&p=14527&hilit=omega#p14527 I would be happy to post my flows and widgets as an example if somebody is interested.
