    What phone was it? And what apps too please.

    I've used every major phone from Android available in Ireland over the last 3 years and haven't experienced this.

    Just wishing you well on your way home to Appleville. Take care, and all the best.

    well samsung phones are known to be a bit ****e with the likes of touchwiz and whatnot, but some of the apps you have said might not be a faithful representation of the android platform. its quite simple to change the gallery so your viber pictures could be seen or unseen whichever you wanted. however I fail to see why there is any need to tell us all here on the android device segment of boards that you are going back to apple.

    Did you contact the developers, it's up to them to fix the problems you have and support their apps. They'l reply to you if you email them from the Play store.

    I don't use most of those apps but looking at Everbuying it was released in Sept 2012 and hasn't has a single update and lots of the reviews are one star. You need to ask them why they've updated the Apple app to version 2.2 but never the Android one when Android devices now outnumber Apple by a huge margin.

    The journal is one that I have had installed, it's not a great app but it worked fine for me and got pretty regular updates.

    Viber had a big thread here in the Android forum around the time they launched on Android, you could ask them about your images problem, it's probably a setting you can change.

    Why are you calling people plank and posting with a sh1tty attitude? What is the point of this thread?

    You sound like someone with no patience to get to the root of your problems.

    if you look back on your quotes and the thread you will see you werent called a fool, what the poster said was you sound like one.

    OP if you had problems you should have tried to sort them before moving.

    What is the point moving and then complaining to android users........its time to move on.
