Media Utilities Beta – Review
Media Utilities Beta – Review When I downloaded Media Utilities it was mainly for the lack of a widget for the stock music app. I understood it was in the notification area, but I like the feel of a good widget on the homescreen. So I went into this, just believing this app would be a good stock music widget, oh how wrong I was. Media Utilities was an ok widget for my music app. The album ar...[Read More]

Fleksy Beta – Review
Fleksy which until this week was for iOS is a lot smarter than the average keyboard. According to the developers, Fleksy aims to bring “laptop keyboard” level touch-typing to mobile devices. It falls into the pit with so many other keyboards, but even as a beta I can see great things for this app. Fleskys challenge of creating a true touch type experience plays out rather well. Nine times out of...[Read More]

Arcus Weather – Review
Arcus will tell you when rain is going to fall within the hour, down to the minute, how long it’ll rain for and how strong the rain will be. “Heavy rain starting in 4 minutes, for the next 35 minutes”. Arcus uses the new Forecast.io (previously Dark Sky) API to get the most accurate, and most current weather information. Bold claims indeed but this app has to be used to be actual...[Read More]
MP3 InCall Recorder – Review
MP3 InCall Recorder – Review Apps that allow you to record calls are very popular. The main reason being that actually there is quite a fine legal line when recording a conversation without the other persons consent. This is normally the reason why its not an included feature on mobile phones. But whatever the reason for wanting to do it, MP3 InCall Recorder achieves this goal and it does it...[Read More]

Bytes Insight – Review
Bytes Insight – Review There are various apps around which can tell you your internet usage. I currently use the My Vodafone app which keeps track of the usage for me. But I have always wondered which apps take up the most data. When I refresh Google+ on the go is that a lot of data? Then while writing up the review for another app Greenify, I noticed the developer did one other app. Thats w...[Read More]
