We fix what others can't.
Update 1: 2015/11/17 2:51am PST Living in Lebanon, I’m used to seeing limited app compatibility on the Play Store. Some apps are just not available in my country for a logical reason, others aren’t because who-knows-why, and a few are limited to carriers or specific devices. I am, however, definitely not used to seeing “You don’t have any devices” […]
Update 1: 2015/11/17 2:56pm PST Google consists of at least one, maybe two, trillion departments, and they each adopt new visual styles at their own pace. Even then, interfaces can vary from one device to another. Google+ looks one way in the Android app and another way entirely when you sign on from a PC. Now […]
LinkedIn’s main app rarely gets significantly updated. It has added a few new features here and there over the past years, but it has looked the same since time immemorial. Very Holo, very grey, very Ice Cream Sandwich. You can finally bid adieu to that old design though, since version 4.0 is ready to coat your smartphone’s screen with […]
OnePlus devices run Cyanogen OS or Oxygen OS, but considering the stock look and feel of both, the company’s customers are just as eager for the latest version of Android as every one else. Given the nature of OnePlus buyers—many of whom have had to snag an invite to buy their phone—maybe even moreso. So […]
Since the launch of the Moto X, Motorola has been pretty good about releasing timely Android updates… though that’s been called into question recently. Apparently at least one variant of the original Moto X (the one from 2013) has been lagging a long way behind as well. The Sprint version of the phone only recently […]
Update 1: 2015/11/17 5:27pm PST This isn’t the first time we’ve reported about Google’s deplorable policies for removing apps from the Play Store. One day you’re the developer of an extremely popular app, distributing it to thousands of users, the next it’s poof gone with no warning, no explanation, and no way to easily communicate with the […]
Update 1: 2015/11/13 8:56am PST Reading books on a tiny smartphone screen can sometimes be quite a hassle. The issue is somewhat mitigated for digital books that scale text to adjust to the size of the display, but for things such as PDFs or comic books which have strict page dimensions, it’s difficult to enlarge content […]
Update 1: 2015/11/13 10:24am PST There are new Android Wear devices coming out finally, but truth be told, they aren’t much different than most of the older ones. So, the Watch Urbane deal on eBay is a solid one if you want a round smart watch. This device launched at $350 (still nearly $300 most places), […]
Update 1: 2015/11/06 10:01am PST The tireless developers at Team Win released their custom Android recovery for the Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X last week, but at the time it didn’t support decryption. This makes working with the stock software (which Google encrypts by default, gleefully thumbing their noses at the NSA and FBI in a […]
An over-the-air update is currently rolling out to the OnePlus 2 and OnePlus X. The update number, version 2.1.2, is the same for both handsets, but the changelog is not. For the OnePlus 2, we see an improved preview interface for the camera, performance improvements when installing apps, individual icon customization support, RAW-related fixes, and […]
Maps are symbolic by their nature, but that doesn’t mean that those symbols can’t be user friendly. Ride-sharing company Lyft seems to have applied that principle to the custom maps in its Android application. The latest app update adds new featured to the map you use when searching for a ride – now the little […]
Update 1: 2015/11/11 12:05pm PST Update 2: 2015/11/11 12:21pm PST Hey, did you notice yesterday at any point that T-Mobile said it’s raising its prices? Well, that’s because they never actually said it. They even got us – with all the talk of unlimited video streaming and double data, seemingly almost nobody noticed that the Uncarrier has […]
