    AppSales gives a list of all apps that are on sale at anytime, you can add apps from the play store to a watchlist as well & get notified about it

    Seen it mentioned in this thread which has a list of apps on sale now

    Hill Climb racing is savage! Similar in gameplay to that old "Bike" game. Pretty addictive.

    Also, music sounds like porn music.

    Found 2 brillant apps recently
    Ultimate rugby - shows you all matches on for whichever team you choose all leagues, shows timeline for past matches, teams you can get bios on the players, newspaper articles etc. Even for future games you can book flights and hotels.

    TV Portal- for €1 you can watch nearly any TV series online it is really up to date with all the series. For example had the final episodes of Homeland, boardwalk empire which only finished in the last couple of weeks. Also has thousands of films not quite as up to date but still decent.

    That app appears to be on the illegal side of legal.

    Is it not sure- the shows would have already have been shown on TV and I am guessing are on their Channels I Players. The film part doesn't seem to have films that have not been out a while.

    Anyway I find it great

    One thing about HCR is it constantly runs in the background even after you force close it. Seems unnecessary

    It's a great game. I need more levels though. Or more vehicles.

    What are the must have driving apps?
    Been using a few over the years but haven't found one I'm happy with.
    Looking for apps that can compose texts and send them, read out texts, compose emails and send. Caller id. Open apps all through voice activation!

    Ah Google now. It does some stuff badly like ringing people. Don't find it too accurate and AFAIK I cannot compose texts, emails or even have these read out.

    Downloaded the driving mode widget, will see how that goes.

    Shush is a simple little app, if you set your phone to silent it pops up with a timer to turn the ringer back on again, handy if you're just turning it off for the cinema:

    Have you tried Beach Buggy Blitz? The graphics quality is superb.

    Guys,

    I'm looking for an app where you can take a face photo of some people and the app superimposes them onto dancing/singing characters. A friend did this on his iPhone app and my kids would love it.

    Any ideas?

    Ben

    Yes Sky Go works with my SGS II directly from the Play Store

    Paddy Power app works too but you have to get it from the Paddy Power website and install it yourself (Gambling apps are not allowed on Google Play)

    which is such a load of hypocritical shyte as Google earn millions (if not billions) from advertising gambling and casino websites all over the world. It's unbelievable that they take casino and bookies advertising money but pretend to take the moral high ground by not letting gambling apps on the Play Store. :confused:
