Anyone recommend an app to stop certain apps autostarting ?

There's an exposed module that does it.

Whether it works/makes any difference I'm not 100% sure

Google's new Photoscan app is very clever. I'm looking forward to scanning some old family photos this weekend.

Bought a film/print scanner a while back that's *almost* good enough but not quite. Depending on the results that could be awesome. [Starts setting up light table]

Textra. It has ads up the top of the inbox on the free version but it's a decent app.

You could try turning then off manually.
Settings - privacy - privacy guard - advanced - bootup
Reset the counters & keep an eye on it.

Are you sure it's a subscription? It's €2.79 to buy for good I thought, I'm still on the free version.

€2.25 for 12 months, 5.66 for 3 or 6.49 for 1 month.


EDIT: Recovered an old v6 build which I'm pretty sure doesn't have ads like v7. Replaced and detached from the market. Swish!

Does anyone know if there's something like a site that shows price history for apps on the Play store? Like the camelcamelcamel site that tracks price history of items on Amazon but for Google Play instead.

:edit: I forgot to say I know about app-sales.net but unless I'm mistaken there doesn't seem to be a search function?

Never mind...figured out a work around.

Yeah I'll give the pro version a try, i suspect the ads may be the cause of the battery drain. I've seen it before in other apps

Do, worth the money, Fotmob pro works flawlessly imo.

What's different with the pro version.

The flashscore website is far faster if you're betting, though still a bit behind bookies/real time

3 euro gets you no ads and push notifications. Also seems faster, has a TV schedule and a few small things which aren't in the free version afair.

Notifications & TV listings are in the free one.

It's a very good app though, never needed to bother with any others

Looks like no ads is the only difference for €3

Nice one. Didn't realise there was a TV section.

Ads drive me nuts so I've no problem paying the 3 euro to remove them.

Edit: just looking at the free version can't see anything about TV schedules, not like there is in the pro version anyway.

i've an adblocker but times they'd get through, probably the only app that happened with but they're not bad on it

use burger menu top left and it's there, you can select country/channel then in settings. it's also shown on the main screen in the list of matches, tv written bottom right.

Does anyone know if Facebook owns Textra? Thought I read that somewhere before but can't find out for sure.

How do you detach an app from the market?

Titanium can do it but it eventually winds up reconnecting itself.
Other than that you have to resign the apk.
