The wife is constantly forgetting her passwords and usernames, have installed her mSecure so she can always have them there. sure its premium but it suits her. also syncs with dropbox as well. i know there are other apps similar and probably free or cheaper but just throwing it out there

was available for Amazon a while back and used some of her 1000 free coins to get it for her.

I use SafeInCloud - great investment, and the free desktop app is a huge plus.

Another option for password management is LastPass.
It has free + premium versions, and works with almost everything, Firefox, Chrome, Android etc...

It works out at about a dollar a month for the paid version. For that I have secure passwords for dozens of sites across home and work laptop, phone and tablet.

Something like PDroid?

Any app with that kind of control would need Root.

just moved from iphone 4 to a moto g and am importing my messages. Is there any other decent sms message apps apart from the stock option. One that could combine with whatsapp etc would be great. cheers

If you have the paid version you need to install the Dolphin browser and get the Lastpass addon that works similar to the Chrome one on your desktop

The addon or LastPass in general?
I think the LastPass Android app can draw over other apps to make it really easy logging into websites on Android, but I don't know as I'm too cheap to pay for premium :P

Yes it does, but I disabled it quickly as it eats battery. Could be improved now though

Been using it for a while, and it's fairly good. It doesn't get new stories as quickly as say flipboard or feedly, but it's nicely laid out and I've discovered a few apps through it.

Has anyone ever come across a decent app for converting PDFs into other formats such as ePub or MOBI?

Easily done on the pc with Calibre, there are a few apps that easily sync with it wirelessly

Not an android app but Calibre will convert just about anything.

Mr E

If the PDFs have lots of images mixed in with the text, I find that they don't convert to epub/mobi very well. If the PDF is all text, you will get better results.

gerrybbadd

Calibre is class for sure, I use it all the time. Just don't always have access to my PC in order to convert over PDFs to MOBI for my Kindle:o
