Got another patented bizarre question for you. When I play music (Poweramp), stop the music, then play a podcast (Antenna Pod), the music plays under the podcast for some reason. This isn't that big a deal, it'd actually be quite a cool option to have, but when the song finishes, it cuts off the podcast & plays the next queued up song. I need to open Poweramp & stop the music, then play the podcast. If it makes a difference, I'm doing this through bluetooth earphones. I've looked through options in both apps but can't see anything to fix the problem. I THINK it's a PowerAmp issue as this problem didn't happen when using Black Player.

Would using the default google launcher instead of Yahoo! Aviate Launcher make my battery last longer and lower memory usage in a noticeable way?

Does anyone know of a live wallpaper that shows rain on glass, without a clear image behind it? All those I've found have pictures of things but I'm after one without, which looks okay on a QHD device.

I've finally growth annoyed enough at ads popping up on the Chrome app that I've switched to Firefox with uBlock installed. Feels a lot better. Sites load a lot faster and when I go to tap something an ad doesn't pop up to take me somewhere else.

I started moving some of my Evernote notes to Google Keep. Is there a way to create a home screen shortcut to specific notes? I'd love to tap once and get directly into my groceries list. Keep is a pretty fast app compared to Evernote, so it may not be that big of a deal to me.

As of Version 11, Hangouts will no longer merge SMS and Hangouts messages together because they were "confusing".

Okay, replace my question with "a list of comic books that I am missing". With Evernote, I made a folder with a few notes that I access frequently so I could open them directly. Since I'm streamlining with Keep (I'm only using it for a few lists, not as a long term storage solution of everything) and Keep is fast, that's probably a stupid way of going about it.

We knew it was coming, I wonder how long until they strip out SMS completely. (The answer is "never" because they'll never get around to making Google Voice work with anything else. poo poo, they'll never even get around to making it so Google Voice replacing your carrier voicemail work without having the legacy app installed.)

You know, I love Google Music, but the stations feature really needs some work. First of all, the names and themes of the stations are sometimes incredibly obtuse. Like, I listen to a lot of electronic stuff and I'd much rather have stations based around all the sub-genres. Instead, I get stations with names like "Code Your Face Off". What the gently caress. Then, it seems that Google sometimes changes the names of the stations, but the app doesn't update the names if you've previously listened to them. For example, I saved "Mellow Electronica" to my library, but if you actually go into the station the name changes to "Chill Electronica". "Electronic Study: Ambient" changed to "Ambient for Studying". I was going crazy, thinking these were all different stations, some of which I didn't pick, until I realized the name was just different in some spots. Google is something else sometimes. Uthor posted:I started moving some of my Evernote notes to Google Keep. Is there a way to create a home screen shortcut to specific notes? I'd love to tap once and get directly into my groceries list. Not really, the best you could do is make a note label for, let's say, shopping, and then apply that to your grocery list. Then when you go to put the big widget down on the desktop you can choose what labels to show, and pick "shopping". It's not perfect but it's probably the closest you'll get.

Luchadork posted:You know, I love Google Music, but the stations feature really needs some work. I actually prefer stations that way, but that's because I'm extremely casual about my music and just want the sounds played at my ears with no interaction on my part. I'd hate to have to go select some sub genre of a radio station to listen to. I just want google to play me some music and it's nice if there's some theoretical theme to tie the selections together. My guess is that this isn't really an example of Google being Google in that they can't quite get their act together, but it's Google being Google in that they have a specific use case they designed for (and in my opinion, succeeded quite well at).

I just wish there was more flexibility for automatic playlists. Why can't I shuffle all the Blues music I have thumbs-up-ed in my library? Why can't I create a twenty minute playlist of songs I haven't listened to lately for when I'm commuting? - etc.

Yeah, that "play me stuff I haven't heard recently" feature would be awesome. My google music "why can't I do this?" thing is why can't I set what mode it goes to when I use the "play some music" ok google command? Instead, it goes to a semi-shuffled playlist of all my music, weighted by number of plays. Which means that if I do that habitually it eventually settles on just a few songs it loves to play and never plays other stuff in my library. I wish it would just shuffle all my music, period.

I switched because it was having massive issues with syncing. Things would move position in the list, or delete/readd themselves because it wasn't syncing properly and kept propagating old data. Few weeks of that and I gave up waiting on a fix and swapped to our groceries like basically everyone else.

I've never had syncing problems with Our Groceries be it Android, iOS, or web. Items appear and disappear within a second or so of the other person performing an action. I've been using this app since Eclair and it's never been anything less than perfect. It's probably my longest running consistently used third party app. Uthor posted:Okay, replace my question with "a list of comic books that I am missing". I was just looking over the Our Groceries FAQ because of the conversation here about it and I notice that you can make both shortcuts and widgets to specific lists on it. There's nothing saying you have to use it only for groceries and it seems like it does exactly the thing you want it to do.

There was a big update to Out of Milk that introduced all sorts of syncing problems. I kept it installed but basically stopped using it and was too lazy to look for an alternative. A while back (after I noticed several new updates), I came back to it. It looks like all of the syncing problems are resolved now, at least for me and for my fiancee. So if you're having trouble with other apps, maybe give Out of Milk another try. We actually have two shared lists right now (groceries and a sort of wedding registry wish list) and both are syncing flawlessly between us.

What the gently caress is up with the way the latest Gmail update handles notifications? Now when you delete an email from the notification it repeats it or some poo poo, so you briefly get a second notification in addition to the one that says deleted. Not only is it annoying on its own, it fucks up the ability to interact with them via Pushbullet.

Flipp is a great shopping app. You put in your grocery items and it gives you the stores that have the best price plus coupons. Then go to a place that price matches and you're golden. The app makes it so you don't even hold up the line when checking out.

I tried out a whole bunch of shopping list apps but Google Keep is definitely the simplest and the best. If you create a note called 'Shopping list' on it, you can add shopping items with a voice command: "OK Google; add milk to shopping list." It's delightful.

What's the best free, lightweight audio player? I don't need it to pull in album artwork, I don't need it to create playlists, I don't need it to connect to internet radio or podcast streams, I don't need it to do anything other than play MP3s that I've downloaded onto my phone. Additional features wouldn't hurt, mind you, I just want something that is really straightforward.
