What do you guys consider to be the best weather app? Free or paid.

I either just open Google Now, or use Weather Flow

No joke, the best for me in terms of actual, real 'this is faster than just stepping outside' usefulness—just bookmarking the google search for 'weather' and putting the bookmark on my homepage has been best.

Previously I used Beautiful Widgets, Weather Underground, or the stock News & Weather app. For me, the bookmark is quicker and more accurate.

You don't care about widgets for quicker access?

Might try Weather Flow.

Don't you just hit the 4-square thing in the top right to jump to subscribed threads (where you can delete subscriptions etc)? Sorry if I misunderstood what you meant.

I didn't even notice there was a link there! Thanks.

It always seemed to me like the data was not timely enough with those. Maybe because I tend to head out early in the morning and after dinner, so within 15-30 minutes there can be a pretty decent temperature shift where I live. And I'd invariably catch it between polls to wherever they polled to.

So it was pretty and all, but I couldn't really trust it, ha—always found myself grabbing a jacket when I didn't need one, or not grabbing one when I did.

try out weather eye.

try out weather eye.

I second the Weather Eye recommend for widgets. All of theirs are really nice.

The main app itself is kind of meh since it's extremely simplistic.

Anyone know of a way to have a persistent RSS top icon/notification that always shows how many unread messages you have (I'm using Google Reader)?

In all the RSS readers I tried, it gives you a notification that shows you whenever new stuff come, but the notification disappears once you click on it/clear it even if you still have unread messages.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but if you use Nova or Apex Launcher they have a feature that allows unread counts on your icons, but I can't say I know it works for RSS readers, since I've only used it for gmail

Thanks, tried it but it isnt possible to just read jpg files in a convenient way - only the specific comic book files. Anything else for manga reading ?

Well the ones people generally recommend are perfect viewer and komik

 

[bigmit3737]

Hey guys, would these apps work on Kindle Fire?

I'm clueless about these things at the moment; Doing research little by little.

I was more looking for something that always sits in the top bar, but I also tried the feature you mention and doesn't look like it works with RSS Reader HD..

Anyone get the new Play Store update? Supposedly lets you delete old apps from your lists... please be true.

Give perfect viewer a shot, or you could just zip up the jpegs and change the extension to .cbz and then any comic reader can read them.

Yup downloaded the apk from android police

The apk is on android police just install from there. Yep you can finally delete apps. Now just need to add a purchased tab.

Oh thank god... now I just need to be able to make my own filter tabs (Free, Purchased, by Catagory, etc..)

 

[AndyD]

Categories would be amazing. Particularly if we can mirror them to folders on the phone in the drawer or on screen. Like Gmail labels for apps we own.

Which for some reason they removed. There used to be one.

Yeah, I bought it earlier today and I settled with that for my weather widget after trying a bunch of them. I like it.

I'm really getting pissed with a feature in SwiftKey - instead of replacing typos it squeezes the correct word in the middle and i have to delete the rest. I even feel less accurate than i was a week ago and most of the suggested words are way off. Why is it so bad all of a sudden?

I'm definitely becoming more disillusioned with Swiftkey, I've never been a fan of the new layout that 3 brought and can't understand why they don't just offer the old layout as an alternative. It doesn't play nice with a lot of websites (including mobile gaf) and often the predictive options won't display and the keyboard becomes very unresponsive.

Can't help but feel the developers have become complacent. Bit of competition is needed.

 

[demonkaze]

so i just got an S3 and i noticed the stock ringtones are terrible. Is there any apps that can give me just a standard ringtone, like the standard one on the iphone?

 

[AndyD]

You can use any mp3 as a ringtone, and there are many websites where you can download ringers, whether songs or standard ring type ones.

 

[snoopen]

Yep, i'm finding my swiftkey is correcting words i'm putting in right to something similar.. ie good may become god (not a word i use often)..

would love to see some better competition as well.

Zedge app has ringtones from different phones.

This, plus you can use an app called RingRoid (something like that anyway) to edit songs on your phone into ringtones.

Swype does the same thing and it is incredibly annoying.

How's Chrome lately? Does scrolling still suck? Text still look like crap?

Definitely needs improving. Personally, I go between it and Boat Browser....especially for my Flash needs.
