Tasker updated to v5.5 with easy importing, Google Drive backup, and much more [APK Download]

...

Powerful Android automation app Tasker changed hands to joaomgcd in the summer, and it continues to go from strength to strength. The latest release takes it up to version 5.5, and there are a host of additions including better import/export functionality, Google Drive integration, and custom setting monitoring.

TaskerNet is the new repository for sharing actions, profiles, and projects, and importing has been made incredibly easy. Manual or automatic backups with Google Drive are now possible, as is convenient uploading of files. The new Custom Setting Event and State functions allow you to react to any setting change on your device with an automated action. Take a look at all of the big new features below:

  • Automation For Everyone: several new features like easy importing and launch tasks when importing make importing existing projects a breeze, allowing absolutely everyone to use Tasker. Demo.
  • TaskerNet: a place to share and import pre-made Tasker stuff. Demo.
  • Custom Setting Monitoring: react to any setting changing on your phone in the new Custom Setting Event and State. Demo.
  • Google Drive Upload File: upload and share files to Google Drive. Demo
  • Google Drive Backup: automatic daily Google Drive backup of your Tasker data. Demo of restoring data from Google Drive.
  • Data Backup Action: Tasker action to trigger data backup locally and optionally to Google Drive
  • Display Size: change the size of your display, making apps appear larger or smaller. Demo.
  • NFC: toggle NFC on your device
  • Status Bar Icons: hide or show icons on your status bar. Demo.
  • Force Rotation: make your display rotate and stay rotated in a certain direction. Demo.
  • Ping: check the connectivity and latency to a remote network host
  • Multi-SIM Support in SMS Sending: optionally select a SIM to send an SMS with

Google Pixel 3 / Pixel 3 XL case reviews: Because breaking an $800+ phone would really suck [Updated continuously]

-

If you thought the Pixel 2 and 2 XL were expensive, you probably weren't very happy when you saw the Pixel 3's $799 and Pixel 3 XL's $899 MSRPs. The Pixel 3 XL received a modest $50 jump in price from the 2 XL, but the Pixel 3 went up by a whopping $150 when compared to the Pixel 2. In other words, those who've purchased a new Pixel, regardless of the model, are probably going to want to protect it. Like last year's , this roundup will feature a wide variety of cases from several different manufacturers. For each case, we'll start off with some pros and cons and finish with a verdict on whether or not it should be considered. Screen protectors and any other pertinent accessories will also be featured. We plan to continuously update this post with new reviews as more cases come in. If there's a particular case you'd like to see reviewed, let us know in the comments section and we'll do our best to get one in for review. These

17 features and tricks to help you get started with Spotify

-

Spotify is one of the world's most popular music streaming services, with 157 million active users ( as of December 2017 ) and over 35 million songs. Originally born in Sweden, it quickly gained popularity as it expanded outside of its home country. Frankly, it's hard to believe that Spotify hit U.S. shores almost seven years ago. For many who were accustomed to mainstays at the time like Pandora and iHeartRadio, Spotify represented something different. And to some of us, its disparity to those other services was off-putting. I was one of those people who was initially excited about it, then quickly became frustrated with it when I tried to use it like Pandora, which was my go-to back then. Fast forward to the very recent past and I decided to give Spotify another try — at the behest of Artem, no less. When I sat down to figure out how to best utilize it, I wanted to learn how to not only get going, but how to use Spotify to the best of its abilities in both the free

Last weekend, fans from all around the world made the trek to Southern California to see some of music's biggest names perform at Coachella. To make those not at the festival feel like they were there, we headed to the desert with VR180 cameras to capture all the action. Throughout the first weekend of Coachella, we embarked on one of the largest VR live streams to date, streaming more than 25 performances (with as many cameras to boot) across 20 hours and capturing behind-the-scenes footage of fans and the bands they love. If you missed it live, you can enjoy some of the best experiences—posted here . VR180 can take you places you never thought possible—the front row at a concert, a faraway travel destination, the finals of your favorite sporting event, or a memorable location. This year at Coachella, we pushed the format even further by adding augmented reality, AR, overlays on top of the performances—like digital confetti that falls when the beat drops, or virtual object
