^ I hear ya. I've wanted poweramp forever.

right now I'm using the old realplayer beta (that doesn't have ads and kills playlists) and an extra EQ app to get around that.... I don't have a credit card at the moment but I have lots of money in paypal to burn on apps, however they don't accept it!!! >_<

I use it becuase it's one of the only free media players that plays both music and videos and looks good... lots of other free ones look like ass LOL... or they have ads....

also my phone only has 350MB avalible for user app storage so I need to compress things... it's bad enough to make me need another phone....

if anyone wants the .apk of the old realplayer version before it had ads and killed playlists let me know I was able to back it up!

It's unlikeliy. So far there haven't been any top sellers in the sale, just second tier niche apps. I still regret not getting swiftkey, poweramp, and a bunch of others when during the $1 sale they had the beginning of the year.

You're in luck - Swiftkey is $0.99 on the market now, as a promotion. I'd wait till today's $0.25 sales before purchasing it though.

Just bought it. They already mentioned the 99c pricing is due to the sales event, so I doubt they would go even lower than that. Just hope poweramp does the same.

There's quite a few apps that aren't second tier niche.

For me it has been the same apps for that last 3 days. Maybe they arent updating properly on Xoom and S3? Bought clouds and sheep on day one, should have ignored it, 25p or not it is just a facebook game conversion :(

It's simple really. They're basically saying 'why buy any of it when you can easily pirate it?'

why go for a job and earn money for living when you can steal it. its that difference.

I dont know where you are looking but here is todays list

Horn failed for me, I purchased it on my HTC OneX but then it said it was incompatible. But seeing as it was over 15minutes from purchase to download fully I cannot claim a refund. Yes it's only 28p with the vat, but that's not the point. I already went through this crap with the Moto Xoom, Maybe I should have learned from my previous mistake :(

I don't understand Nova so I'll need to check out some guidelines. I got the Dark Knight and Gravity Guy as extra's. The sale should have indeed been longer but shouldn't it always? :)

Nova is a launcher ie. everything you see and do on your home screen and app drawer is a launcher.

by default your phone will have a launcher but this is an additional launcher which will let you customize your home screen app drawer. for example I can customize how a folder should look. can customize the home screen and scroll effects.

try the free one first and then you will understand...

Nova when I tried it just seemed like more trouble than its worth, it's slow and overly complex, unstable and doesn't work as well as original launcher. But that's my verdict on all launchers today. It seems third party launchers are stuck where they here 2 years ago, while the original and OEM launchers have progressed.

I've had quite the opposite experience - Nova launcher, Apex Launcher are my favorite launchers - they are fast, stable, and have tons more features than any OEM launcher will ever have. A third party launcher is a must on any non-nexus device as I can't stand manufacturer bloat (a ROM without manufacturer bloat is even better). Also, have you tried the latest updates, these launchers have come a long way since they have been released.

    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
    • OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android by Karthik Mudaliar OpenClaw, the viral open-source personal AI agent, now has its own mobile app, available on both Android and iOS. Users can pair the app with an existing OpenClaw gateway and can start using new mobile-native features that are now available on the app. The app supports all the existing features you'd already have seen on OpenClaw's TUI, as well as some more, such as real-time and background Talk mode, action approvals, sharing from iOS, and optional access to device capabilities such as camera, screen, location, photos, contacts, calendar, and reminders. These features are available on both the Android and iOS versions of the app. What's important with these apps is that they don't run OpenClaw on your phone, but are actually just companion apps that require a running OpenClaw Gateway on an existing device, on macOS, Linux, or Windows via WSL2. To pair the app with your existing OpenClaw gateway, users need to run the command "/pair qr" on the TUI or existing chat interface, which brings up a QR code. Users can then scan this QR code to pair it up with the mobile app. There's also an option to manually pair the app by entering the host and a port. Previously, OpenClaw had been available on phones via WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, and others. Now, with a native mobile app, the interface is much cleaner and more focused on just the OpenClaw, of course, with the added support for camera, screen, location, and more. It's important to note that OpenClaw comes with its own security warnings. There's always a chance of prompt injection with these tools, so users are recommended to double-check authentication, tool policy, sandboxing, and execution approvals rather than prompts alone. For users well-versed with the AI harness, a native mobile app makes it easier to approve an automation, share a link, use voice, or let an agent react to phone-side context.
    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.
