The latest version of the Play Store is now being pushed out to devices all around, version 3.10.14. Looking into the app and all its details (code changes) we haven’t seen any major changes, especially not to us end users. The only notable change is related to code involving billing details, other than that this is probably just a bug fix-er, like the other apps Google has updated this week... »
Google is always hard at work to improve its product, and they do a pretty damn good job of it, if you ask me. Yesterday it was Drive and Maps that got attention, today it’s Chrome Beta, Google Earth and YouTube that got new versions. There’s nothing major in either of the two releases, but you’ll still want to upgrade as soon as you have a few minutes to spare. Chrome Browser 25... »
Just this after noon Google has taken to updating one of its most useful and informative apps/features in Jellybean (Android 4.1+) — Google Now (Google Search). This new update confirms some rumors, adds a plethora of features, and simply makes thing easier. Oh and they also updated the Google+ app, but yea… The changelogs for both are below: Google Search (Now): For Android 4.1+ (Jell... »
I already know what you’re thinking, and no we’re not trolling you. There actually is an app out there named Shipoopi Lockscreen Widget. Put aside the widget’s silly name that seemingly plays on feces (Wikipedia says it’s actually a song in the 1957 musical The Music Man by Meredith Willson), and we’re actually dealing with a pretty useful tool here. The introduction ... »
Tweet tweet! Is this thing on? Heads up, Twitter for Android users, a new version rolled out on Google Play earlier today that aims to bring you more enjoyable content with less waiting involved. The latest version is labeled 3.7.0 and adds a new mix of tweets, photos, and people to the app’s search functionality. The same can be said about the Discovery tab, which has also been redesigned t... »
Kii Keyboard: A nice alternative to stock Android input The Play Store seems to be awash with keyboards for you to try out, which sometimes makes it difficult to make a choice. Kii keyboard is actually a nice alternative to Android’s out-of-the-box offering. At the moment it is still in beta testing so you may come across a bug or two, having said that I haven’t actually had any proble... »
Clockworkmod pushes an update to Carbon App Sync and Backup. You speak, Koush listens. Today Twitter greeted me with a surprise. Carbon App Sync and Backup already has an update! For a crack flasher like me, this app is a God send. I use it pretty much daily to backup my settings for the apps that are pain to get set up when I have to reinstall them. Now I can back up to my external SD card in add... »

A few days back we informed you of a promising new app called Carbon by Clockwork Mod developer Koush. Carbon is an app,data, back-up and sync solution that’ll allow syncing to other devices and to “the cloud”, for rooted and stock users alike, and it has just been updated. It’s still in beta and still only for rooted users. The update provides certain new functionality ma... »
Ingress, the “get out and get some fresh air” game that has taken the Internet by storm as of late, got itself a hefty update this evening, bringing the version number up to 1.18.1. The changelog notes a slew of bugfixes, improved memory usage, and improved performance. Additionally, Adreno GPU based devices should now experience faster app resumes — or less lag when resuming &#... »
Last week, we told you about recent sightings of Android 4.2.2 running on the LG Nexus 4 in Brazil. Depending on who you listen to, the validity of those original reports was up in the air, at least until earlier today when the folks from Phone Arena posted this story with more incriminating evidence, this time in the form of a YouTube video. Granted, the video was shot in the Czech Republic ̵... »
