Android Apps Of The Week: Snapseed, Etsy for Android, and More
Nice to see the Dan Deacon app get a mention. Love the new album and going to see him at the end of the month.
I love the ‘Chameleon Launcher’ just installed it and its so smooth, a bit lacking in features, but what it does is done right.
Does anyone here know a good File manager and Task Manager (not daily to do tasks, but OS tasks) that looks the part with ICS?
I’m using File Manager HD for my file system, but it looks naff now in comparison to Chameleon.
I’m not sure if it works on tablets and it’s not particularly pretty but ES File Manager is a very good app, with additional features for rooted devices. It also includes the option to install other managers including Task, App and SD card.
Can’t really comment on appearance, but as far as functionality is concerned, try EZ File Explorer and OS Monitor (for tablet)
The best file manager is and everyone should know it is “Solid Explorer”!
Perfect that’s what I was looking for.
Everything on android needs to look nicer, there are some apps that look the part like Chameleon, but fuck me I have seen some fugley apps lurking around
Voice Assist can’t be installed in this country.
Nice research.
