What do you think about Windows Phone? I've been playing with it for a few hours, and I can say it isn't that bad. It is very simple to use, and thats why I think that Windows Phone is perfect for older people. Of course, Android stays my primary OS, but it would be nice to have a Lumia too :) #Google #GoogleAndroid #Android #AndroidMarshmallow #Microsoft #Nokia #Lumia #NokiaLumia #MicrosoftLumia #WindowsPhone #WindowsPhone8

5 Android apps you shouldn’t miss this week! – Android Apps Weekly

Welcome to the 273rd edition of Android Apps Weekly! Here are the big headlines from the last week:Essential surprised all of us this week when they purchased CloudMagic. CloudMagic closed its app, Newton Mail, down earlier this year citing financial problems. Now, a phone OEM with financial problems owns the email developer with financial problems.

Take that for what it's worth.Google+ is shutting down sooner than originally expected. Google announced a second data leak with an estimated impact of 52.5 million users. It's very similar to the first data leak. It exposed a lot of user information to developers on the Google+ API. In response, the shut down is now April 2019 instead of August 2019.
