Your phone beeps. A notification pops up. Six apps are waiting to be updated. You quickly head over to Play Store (or whatever store). The apps with available updates are listed; you select one, open the change log, and see the phrase: Bug fixes and performance improvements.

windo-8-apps-update - 1

Sigh. Of recent, this line has made me start asking, ”What really is bug fixes and performance improvements? Which bug are they fixing? Which bug was fixed? How is the app performance different from what it was before?”

The reason for this rant is that on countless occasions, I’ve updated apps without noticing anything. it makes you wonder why are you being pushed to update the app in the first place.

I’d say it’s silly to have the above phrase for an app update change-log. Why should I waste my time and data just for bug fixes? Henceforth, I’ve chosen to ignore any app update that carries that tag. In short, any app update that doesn’t come with significant changes or features isn’t really worth wasting data for.

Add MobilityArena as a preferred source on Google

One of the things Android OS has lacked is the ability to search (all through) your phone for a specific app. The inbuilt search widget directs you to Google, sometimes file manager apps have a sort of half baked search bar. It tries but doesn’t cover every corner of your device. I hereby present to you Andro Search, a universal Android Search app.

Andro Search  (1) - 2

Below are some of its key features:

  • Files searching by name, extension, and Fulltext search INSIDE: PDFs, Office, ebooks , etc.
  • Contacts search by name, notes, emails, phones, postal addresses, organization.
  • Google Query Suggestions – get query suggestions to take your search online.
  • Highly tolerant of keyboard typos and misspellings.
  • Search files By Metadata – Search MS Office 2007+ and OpenOffice documents, Music songs, and video files by Author, Title, Artist, Album.
  • Recently Modified Files View – Care about recent files like pictures you took today, files you downloaded a minute ago, a document you recently edited? See them regardless of the folder they’re in, with the innovative fast flat view of all files in the device SD card, sorted by when they were modified
  • Recently Installed Apps View – So you could easily get to the app you installed two days ago but can’t remember its name.

… and the list goes on and on.
