In what is probably a rare move by Google, I believe a third-party Android app for a community web site called Reddit has been banned. Interestingly while Android Play was considered to be often lax in its approach to what it stores, this time it seems the company have taken a pre-emptive strike. However, what [...]
Google recently merged its three separate online sites into just one called Google Play. Whatever the reasons for doing this I think it is a smart move as it allows easier access to Google Apps under one roof, so to speak. I have also heard that Google is considering expanding its repertoire to include audio [...]
I don’t know about you but I much prefer to wake naturally than to the sound of an alarm, but nowadays, mobile phones come with a variety of alarm sounds to get you up and out. However, are we becoming a little obsessed with alarms? I ask that because it seems to me that not [...]
This time last year saw one of the biggest assaults on Android apps stored on the Android Market by malicious software or malware. Since then another attack took place a few months later followed by experts criticising Google’s response as inadequate. For my part, I have to agree that Google’s excuse that it sorts the [...]
That’s a charge being labelled by the market research firm Canalys who has suggested that Google Apps are 2.5 times more expensive than their rival’s iOS software. I believe the way Canalys calculated this is by comparing the costs of the top 100 applications on both operating systems. However, this statistical analysis has been criticised, [...]
That’s a question exercising the minds of a number of commentators at the moment. The question I believe revolves around the idea that Android users are less likely to pay for their Google Apps than iPhone or iPad users. It is also a reason why app developers tend to prefer making products for Apple’s gadgets [...]
If you are an avid Google Apps user then I have some great news. The latest Android apps are now available, presumably from the Android Market. First up is a photo editing plugin called Aviary Photo Editor. Interestingly, the developers say this is not strictly an app, but to be honest I wouldn’t know what [...]
Apple and Google have been effectively at each other’s throats over recent months with Apple trying to target Google over what the former perceives as the latter’s theft of patented technology. Unfortunately for Apple, targeting Google directly is a bit difficult simply because the global business has a tight relationship with manufacturers such as HTC [...]
The last 12 months or so have been a torrid time for Android’s app store. Many Google apps have found themselves infected with malicious software. These programs are designed to do many things from destabilising the application or more likely attacking an individual’s smartphone or tablet, extracting personal data in the process. Google has been [...]
I believe Google’s Android Market has been targeted once again. This time by fake Android Apps, including phoney items of some of the most popular games around such as Madden NFL 12 and Angry Chicken. I must admit I’ve not heard of these games before so I am unsure whether the fake items are just [...]
