Update 1: 2016/03/23 10:02pm PDT A bunch of LG phones have been upgraded to Android 6.0 over the last few weeks, and today it’s the Verizon V10’s version. According to Verizon’s support page, at least: the company says it’s now sending the over-the-air update to customers, though of course it could be a few days or […]
VentureBeat is claiming to have wind of a new app by YouTube, named ‘Connect.’ The app will reportedly be used for live-streaming, in much the same way as Periscope and Facebook. According to VentureBeat’s sources, Connect has many of the same features as those two apps, including a ‘news feed’ to see which of your subscriptions […]
Developers, we know you work hard on your apps. So does Google. But they also know that sometimes it’s hard to make apps easy to use when you’re elbow deep in their design. To that end, the new Accessibility Scanner app allows you to check other apps for potential problems or possible improvements in terms […]
No, it’s not an April Fool prank, as far as we’re aware. Sprint and Verizon are taking pre-orders for the LG G5 starting today, and it will be officially available on April 1st. You have your choice of monthly payments, a contract, or just buying it outright for $576 on Sprint. Verizon only has payment plans, […]
You’ve probably heard of ES File Explorer before, even if you’ve never personally used it. The original developer of that app has seems to have resurfaced on XDA with an alpha app that you might want to check out. fooView runs a small floating button that you can use to get around the phone, take screenshots, […]
Here’s a free tip, would-be criminals: don’t tag yourself in photos of an active crime and then post said photos to social media. It’s a 21st century problem for those whose leisure activities are just a little bit more than the law will allow, but Motorola has used that interesting situation as a springboard for […]
Things did not go as planned for LG with the Watch Urbane 2nd Edition, which was originally supposed to come out late last year. A hardware defect caused the company to halt the release and bring the watch back to the drawing board. Now, it’s ready to go again and ATT will let you pre-order […]
Samsung has a bunch of phones spread across a bunch of carriers, and those released in the last year or two need Marshmallow updates. Sprint has begun to roll out the latest version of Android to customers owning three of those devices: the Galaxy Note 4 and 5, plus the S6 Edge+. The Galaxy S6 […]
We’re big fans of cross-device sync here at Android Police. Therefore, we’re of the opinion that if you haven’t yet heard of joaomgcd‘s latest app, you’re missing out. Join is a bit like Pushbullet, in that it can do Android-to-desktop notifications, desktop SMS, and a cross-device clipboard. But it can do a lot more; for example, […]
Baseball games tend to veer on the side of “simulator” sports titles – they’ve been getting progressively more complex, and more technically taxing, since the 16-bit days when players stopped looking like a collection of squares. The latest high-profile game to hit NVIDIA’s SHIELD Android TV device bucks that trend with a setup tuned for […]
OK, so you want a Samsung Galaxy S7. That makes sense — it’s looks like a solid phone. The 5.1-inch display is a great size for the many users out there who may not be interested in carrying a nearly-tablet-sized phone, and its Quad HD resolution keeps everything on-screen super sharp. Seriously — it’s something […]
The LG Watch Urbane 2 was exciting when it was announced, since it was the first Android Wear device capable of working as a stand-alone mobile gadget with a built-in LTE connection.
