In all media, only true fans who consume every book, film, game, or pog collection deserve to know what's going on.
Not sure if this was posted already but the WatchESPN official app is now available.

I can't believe snapchat is still popular after all mobile OS's built in the ability to capture screenshots.

Oh, Flipboard got an update but still doesn't flip.
I only managed to find one other person having the issue. Odd.

TBH, not sure about that datasense bit. I"ll peruse the email threads to see if I can find an answer
Dance pal.
Did anyone else in the US buy either Five nights at Freddy's games? I can't find them in the store and when I do a Cortana search to find them, a message in the store says the app is not available for my device. Not sure if it's a region, OS, or phone issue.
Did more searching and actually came up with a couple links where people experienced the same problem but no real information in either of them.

Kids just don't use Snap for salacious pictures, it is their messaging platform. Don't ask me why, I don't know why it's probably because it's something adult don't use. It's dumb and annoying as hell to use as communication method but often time when I can't get a hold of my daughter, I resort to Snapchat and usually I get near instant answer because they are always on it and checking it.
Didn't the photo guy in charge of Nokia's Pure View go to Apple?

Juha is still at MS, right? Some hope remains if so.

Anyone else have the Xbox One app just doing nothing? I'm on a Lumia 930. Its just up and stopped working. Already tried deleting and re-installing. No go.
2015 broke it.
The year of Windows Phone.

FTFY for Icon users.
He is basically the guy in charge.
And my calendar live tile is stuck. 2015 looking bad.

So Mike Ybarra just tweeted that there's a 2015 bug in the Smartglass app. Being worked on.
I wasn't joking when I said 2015 broke it.
It's about the illusion of privacy. But Snapchat also tells the sender if someone takes a screenshot.

MetroTube is literally superior to Official YT app on Android. You will ignore it just because its not official app?
With the latest update I can even play sound of the video while multitasking on MetroTube. On Android you cant even do that. So far not a single thing I can think of is not in MetroTube.

The ability to not break if YouTube changes something big behind the scenes is not in MetroTube.
To be fair, that's only happened once or twice in the years I've been on WP so far, and the MetroTube devs are awesome at fixing things really quickly, but it's always a possibility that YouTube could change something and make the app worthless.

My mother's galaxy S3 can't play any YouTube video with the latest update installed, and that's the official client. I had to erase all the updates and stop YouTube from auto updating. It's has been this way since October and still wasn't fixed.
And there were tons of people (in Brazil, at least) with this exact same problem.
Problems can and do happen with official apps to. The extra issue 3rd apps have to deal that's never going to be a problem with official ones is being actively brought down like snapchat. That's a valid concern, but I still believe 3rd party apps can replace official ones, specially if they are on your marketplace as a fallback alternative.

I really enjoy using the 635 as mp3 players. Also Microsoft Store have Nokia portable speaker on sale for $29.99.
But some apps display the same data in a 6"device as in the smaller ones. You end up with huge fonts and a lot of wasted space
I don't know, but if there's one Windows app worth any money, then it's Nextgen Reader. Great app on both Windows Phone and Windows 8.
I remember the trial being fully featured and without a time limit.
As do I.
It's a joke. Crashed more than 10 times playing basic mp3s and sample mkvs.
Same joke as their Win8 app.

Hrm. Looks kinda nice, though I hope there's an option to retain the current wallpaper style.https://twitter.com/tomwarren/status/551825726115045377

There aren't blank spots in the wallpaper.
Huh?
The black or white only background is gone.
