Android overthrows portable consoles - Cadena Ser

Over the past 20 years portable consoles have dominated the market have been those of Nintendo. Some of them such as Game Boy or Game Boy Color have brought significant revenue to the Japanese company . This domain has been used to fight against the burgeoning mobile games applications. The main reason for the increase is due to downloads large number of terminals have been sold in recent years.

Some of the games that are leading the market are Candy Crush and Puzzle & Dragons , free games that are getting great benefits.

According to a study by consultancy IDC and specializes in applications, App Annie, in the last quarter sales in the market favor the Android Apps on portable machines Nintendo or Sony , as the 3DS or PSVita.

Apple with its App Store maintained at least 40% of the profits for the first half of 2013 . iOS platform becomes more money comes through mobile and tablet games.

Some of the reasons that may be carrying are encrypted can be the difference between the cost of a game for a handheld console, which can hover around 40 euros , and a mobile application where may be the most expensive around 10 euros.

companies like Nintendo and Sony do not want to see how the market eludes them in their hands, they will have to make significant changes in the sector. Some of them are already being carried out as actions lower the price of the consoles -Sony has done with the PSVita, which has lowered the price to 199 euros, or bring to market some cheapest new machines as the Nintendo 2DS. But it will have to act in the field of promoting free games Free to Play.

One of the ideas that can reel off the study is how the users are more interested in the for portable casual games to take the time , rather than to play for hours.

hugo-bar-left-android

this morning

What started as a rumor has recently been confirmed. Hugo Barra , one of the most senior executives Android, leaving the computer operating system Google to join the Chinese company Xiaomi .

Hugo Barra has been one of the most responsible has achieved worldwide success Android . The enormous expansion of the operating system, reaching the major brands of mobile phone manufacturers, has been due in large part to the work of Bar, now left to face new challenges . In the five years he has worked in Google, three and a half devoted to Android , and this stage comes to an end today. Before joining Google Mobile launched LOBBY7 and worked in the Nuance team, finishing his climb in Mountain View as vice president of product management in Android.

It is mainly focused on selling devices in the Chinese market, and Hugo Barra now joins them as vice president for global expansion help , as the same has been reported in a publication of Google+. Xiaomi is one of the companies you have to be in the spotlight due to their low prices for smartphones that match the characteristics of some high-end, especially if you start now sold worldwide.

this post takes to say goodbye to some of those who have been his companions in this way on Android as Andy Rubin, Hiroshi Lockheimer, Sundar Pichai and Vic Gundotra.

Android apps to learn to cook - Bitelia

JJ Velasco Avatar JJ Velasco (Profile)

August 28, 2013, 18:37

Almost without realizing it, our mobile devices have carved a niche in our day to day and, more often turn to them when carrying out our daily tasks. Usually we put the focus on productivity and, in this sense, we have seen how to transform our smartphone into a mobile office, but our tablets and smartphones can help in many other tasks as organizing a trip, organizing a party and, of course, learn to cook and become experts in the world of fine dining .

Applications Android to learn to cook

few months ago, we made a nod to the world of gastronomy a selection of culinary applications , both iOS and Android, applications helped us locate recipes, good wines and, of course, give us ideas to mount a home menu and surprise our guests.

Following the same path, this time we put the focus on Android and we will explore some applications, in my opinion, worth trying if want to improve your culinary skills and want to learn new recipes or directly want to learn to cook:

    • Cooking Channel is in my opinion one of the best applications on recipes that can be found (and is one of my favorites). This application is the gateway to the cookbook that provides, through its website, a television channel in Spain that is focused exclusively on the world of cooking and the application will have access to recipes for programs broadcast , configuration menus or videos with step by step recipes. A good application to always have ideas for cooking at home or amaze our guests.

    Channel Kitchen - Android Apps to enjoy the food and learn to cook

    • Wine Vintages is a very interesting application to enter the world of wine. The application is a guide with a catalog of 4,500 sheets covering wine vintages from 1912-2012 of around 130 regions of Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, United States, Argentina, Chile, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. With this application we can explore the tabs labeled wines or wines compare to each other face to make always the best choice.

    • Nestlé Kitchen is a commercial application of food group Nestle, albeit an application for advertising, offers recipes and ideas for cooking at home. The purpose of this application is to offer ideas for cooking and for this, offers about a thousand prescriptions (20% with explanatory video) that combine to form menus. You can find the recipes for preparation time, nutritional value or, for example, special holidays (Christmas menu) and, if we do not have any idea in mind, we can let be surprised by a recipe at random.

    All My Recipes - Android Apps to enjoy the food and learn to cook

    • All My Recipes is also another good option to consider if we recipes online for our smartphone or our tablet . This Android app gives us access to the knowledge base of over 35,000 recipes that are in the same web site and we can locate recetas.org recipes by ingredients or by dish type (appetizers, main course, dessert, etc.) in addition to country origin of the recipe or the difficulty parameters, the cost of the dish or preparation time. The application includes some social features with which we share recipes via Twitter or Facebook and, since my web web-site is a collaborative recetas.org constantly growing, the recipe of this application is always updated and expanding.

    • ELLE Gourmet is an application linked to ELLE magazine that, although you have not updated in Google Play, offers interesting content. The application offers about 6,000 recipes from desserts, appetizers and main dishes with a menu to configure which amaze our guests and the material is arranged by theme ( brunch , Asian cuisine, celebrations, snacks, etc.) also included a search engine.

    • Kitchen Timer is not, in the strict sense, an application of recipes, but I think is a very interesting application if you have love for cooking and let yourself be accompanied by your tablet or your smartphone . Through this simple application, our mobile device Android will become a kitchen timer that will tell us when to turn off the oven and remove the pot from the heat and avoid, therefore, that we burn the food.

    Android Kitchen Timer - Android Apps to enjoy the food and learn to cook

    • LG Kitchen is an interesting application developed by the manufacturer LG in its subject line applications “Lifestyle”. With this application we indicate which foods have in our fridge so that the application will suggest recipes with which we prepare and, thus, out of the rut with a menu more pleasant and different. The application includes phrases, therefore, we can hear the steps of the recipe without having to be reading on the screen of your smartphone or our tablet .

    • Consumer Eroski Recipes is an Android application linked to a publication of Spain on consumption. This application opens the door to a thousand recipes, will allow us to design menus and also all information is completed dietary and nutritional data (so that in addition to eating well, eat healthy). Recipes include photos and videos also included a search engine that will allow us to find recipes based on the ingredients, difficulty of preparation or time to prepare the recipe.

    • What I cook today? is a multiplatform application (even available for BlackBerry) that offers a collection of about 3,000 recipes that are available, even mode offline . The application, in my opinion, is interesting because it includes a way to “read aloud” recipes, ie recipes are read by the application and we have to follow what we hear to that, in this way, we focus on the preparation of the dishes and not have to be reading our tablet or our smartphone . It includes a search by ingredient, groups of ingredients (meats, fish, desserts, etc.) and, as in other applications include recipe suggestions.

    • Salad Recipes is a simple free application that offers recipes exclusively in salads. The application name does not lie and contents are find simple recipes for salads. An interesting addition for those looking to eat healthy.

  • The HTC One Max will come with Android 4.3 and Sense 5.5 - Tablet Zone

    The Taiwanese company plans to take the rest with their HTC One Max . This will not only come phablet updated to the latest regarding Android operating system , but also released an evolution of the firm’s own interface, Sense 5.5 . The battle between large new devices from September is exciting, since almost all major brands have something ready by then.

    Although, not long ago, Google introduced a version of HTC One with stock Android , the Taiwanese still diligently developing its own interface for Android. If Sense 5 and was surprised at their appearance and care especially for the desktop with BlinkFeed , the next update promises to continue in those channels.

    One dir=”ltr”>

    few days ago it was revealed that the Galaxy Note 3 come with Android 4.3 and one of its main competitors would expect: The HTC One series Max also bring the last Jelly Bean version, launched last May during the Google I / O. The effort to keep computers updated realizes how important it begins to be this kind of details for users.

    HTC One Max Photos

    If we take last year, terminals and tablets that were presented during the IFA even came with Ice Cream Sandwich , as we recall in the case of Galaxy Note II and the Note 10.1 . However, Google’s work to end (as far as possible) with the fragmentation and manufacturers to keep the consumer happy seems to pay off.


    A dizzying features phablet

    The HTC One Max will be very high-level features: a screen, Full HD resolution, 5.9-inch, Snapdragon processor 800 more than 2GHz, 2GB of RAM at least (although we can not rule finally have 3GB) and 13 Mpx camera with ultra-pixel technology . Added to all this we must add a feature somewhat peculiar: fingerprint reader.

    Jelly Bean Android 4.3 lets you use the volume buttons as ... - Android Faqs


    One aspect that many Android phones, headed by the Nexus, not much care is the inclusion of a physical button to take pictures.

    Sony has usually been an exception in this field and other systems Nokia is still committed to this in some Windows Phone devices.

    The point is not based on most users to become accustomed to shoot by pressing on the screen or voice commands if they’re implemented as Samsung makes the Note 2 to S4.

    However

    Google has seen fit to implement the camera shutter on the volume buttons in Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. These buttons until that version served to zoom, although almost everyone used the possibility to pinch the screen to zoom in and zoom couple scene. But there are two issues to consider.

    Android 4.3 Jelly Bean allows use the volume buttons as a camera shutter

    The first is that this applies in the camera application that comes with Android 4.3. All mobile modified interfaces that modify this apk but with Android version 4.3 need not make use of this new feature .

    On the other hand we are talking about a button on one trip, which is not comparable to a double round button for autofocus as have some Android phones. That is, we must continue to focus by touching the screen so that the use is not the same as if you integrate dedicated button for that.

    However

    is a more useful zoom implementing these buttons as usually is more comfortable on screen.

    Best voice recorders for Android - Bitelia

    Barbara Pavan Avatar Barbara Pavan (Profile)

    August 27, 2013, 03:06 AM

    By default, Android is equipped with a voice recorder which can be highly configurable. However, we are nonconformists by nature. So today we’ll talk about the best voice recorders for Android to be found in Google Play. Present ten alternatives for all tastes and needs : For those who record their thoughts, as well as those who record their classes and meetings. The vast majority are free although some also offer paid versions with more features.

    android voice recorders

    • Voice PRO : we started with an alternative suitable for the most demanding. With Voice Recorder PRO found a high quality with which we can record music, but also advanced editing complexity as special effects , tempo changes, and conversions to different formats . To have a voice function to text that leads to writing what you’ve recorded, ideal for minutes of meetings or classes. However, keep in mind that has been developed for English as a primary language.

    • Voice Recorder : This is one of the best free alternatives in regard to Android voice recorders. Unlike application mentioned earlier, Voice Recorder wins by its simplicity. It is also ideal for recording, all you have to do is press the REC button and press it again when done. Once this is done we can keep with the rest of the audio files and name it accordingly. It’s the one I use for my classes and interviews and so far have not been disappointed.

    • VoiceRecorder Pro : continuing the previous recorder, this is the paid version, and we believe it should also be part of the list. What is the differential value that we can get? Again, we find simplicity, but now accompanied by a number of solid features. For example, a timer can setear to start recording, not to forget (eg, five minutes into a meeting or interview while giving some details that would not interest too in the future). We can also make some adjustments most advanced audio , and make time labeled remember when things were said.

    • Smart Voice Recorder : another good choice for those wishing to have a recorder with many features is Smart Voice Recorder. This application allows you to configure, for example, the option to remove silences, as well as the possibility to calibrate the microphone . It also allows us to create special folders for storing the final recordings, and is an excellent choice for those who use the voice recorder for business meetings , and need to save time in the desgrabado of notes. Best of all, with all the customization, remains a free application.

    • eRecorder : within all voice recorders that exist in Google Android Play, eRecorder has a differential value, its ability to synchronize in the cloud recordings sending them to Dropbox or SoundCloud. In addition, it also allows us to share our recordings via text messages. All this, in a free app very easy to use, with a friendly interface that reminds the Voice Recorder. We can not set too many audio options, however, if you want something simple to record our classes, is a good application for college students.

    para_android voice recorders

    • Easy Voice Recorder : as its name suggests, this option is very easy to use. It is a voice recorder designed to not waste time making us the personal notes or record lectures and meetings. It allows us to use certain audio filters (only on devices that run Jelly Bean) and also change the name of our files directly from the application. We can assign as our ringtone recordings, as well as integrate the application with Tasker and Locale . Us determine what format is saved, prioritizing quality over size, and we can easily share with colleagues.

    • Hi-Q Voice Recorder : I recommend this app for those who need or want to record lectures, but in turn also want to prioritize audio quality. This is important, especially when we stop paying attention at some point. This application lets you record MP3 , which makes the end result can be played in a lot of devices and also can be shared with others to be heard from anywhere. It also has advanced features and to adjust the audio according to our needs.

    • Netmemo Voice Recorder : voice recorders for Android we mentioned so far are designed to give us the freedom of time to burn. Netmemo, on the other hand, want to help us remember our stuff through voice. Therefore, we can brief record voice messages that we can send directly to our inbox or that of our colleagues. In this sense, we can not expect a lot of customization or audio quality, but is a good alternative for those who have a habit of self-sent emails to remember pending tasks. Can also upload these voice notes directly to Dropbox , where you can access them from anywhere.

    • Tape-a-Talk : This is one of the most powerful applications for recording audio on Android, thanks to a number of advanced features that allow the process more in our hands. It is, of course, a voice recorder, but high quality and easy to use, with multiple utilities. We can record audio in different qualities depending on the time, use it as a dictation machine, and also use a widget to start recording directly from the phone’s main screen. Once the recording, the audio can also share via email and also upload directly to Dropbox where we can access it from other devices or share other folders. Recordings are stored on the SD card to save internal memory.

    • Dictadroid : we close our list of voice recorders with a Android app for dictation . Dictadroid is that although we can edit our audio depth, is a good alternative for those who seek simplicity again, with good options for sharing. So have sync with Dropbox but also lets us send the recorded audio to an FTP or via a multimedia message. With the free version, but rather because we just can only burn for five minutes. If we make the investment, Dictadroid is a good alternative for those who need to record, and much, during the day, for example, journalists, and people who work in this industry.

    Special: SIP on Android, save on your mobile bill, or talks ... - The Android Free

    tru-app-voip Many of us have made comparisons between them and other carriers to see which is the rate that can suit our conventional use but often we fail find a rate that we cover 100% of our needs and use data for all sporadic calls, international calls, etc..

    With this special we will show the advantages of using SIP technology and how to make use of this from an Android and it’s one of the great innovations that were incorporated with the release of Gingerbread (Android 2.3) was the power set our Android SIP to make calls without installing any additional software.

    account or our mobile SIP configured to use this technology can do, among other things.

      Free Call from Android
    • bypassing your voice to a landline operator of most countries.
    • make international calls from Android at bargain prices and even cheaper than calls to landlines or mobiles in your country no call.
    • Call any phone

    • Spanish you are abroad without this having to pay roaming for it.

    SIP stands for Session Initiation Protocol and Session Initiation Protocol and a protocol was created to incorporate voice internet services. Its operation is similar to Jabber as to the need for logging into a server where you manage accounts created on them and SIP is nothing but a protocol that makes use of a technology already known by most as VoIP.

    From here, it is now that we can see the comparisons of different companies and costs that may have calls through these and may do so by visiting the Betamax page which shows different vendors with certain costs for each countries.

    Rates

    As we can see in the list, as cheap as freevoipdeal.com observers (with prices as 0 € to local or 1.5 cents to mobiles)

    Among other things, with an account with a SIP server can:

    class=”c22″> calls PC to PC

    class=”c22″>

    Calls class=”c22″> fixed / mobile to fixed / mobile

    Once the company found that most appeals to us with their rates, the first thing we must do is create an account on their respective web page can be accessed from Betamax page, for example, if the service attracts us most is freevoipdeal.com first thing we have to do is register a new account on that service where you add our data (name, address, etc.), and methods of payment for the first recharge (since it is not possible to make calls payment without having balance in our account).

    Once everything is configured

    can start making calls even from within the website or we can go to the Server Configuration page to have the data needed to make calls from your mobile phone for example the case of the configuration page of freevoipdeal.com where we can see how to configure your router so you can call our landline or configuration data for our Android.

    To set up your mobile phone

    we go to the Settings -> Call Settings -> Call settings online where we can add our new SIP account.

    Screenshot_2013-08-15-12-59-00

    Once inside the configure with our log data and parameters offered by our new SIP server and store the data for the account and is ready and prepared. Is important first of all to verify the account created by clicking the account verification link you will come to the email you put in the record.

    Once all set, we select which now want to use the SIP and traditional voice call (for example, for international calls, call landlines, etc..) to save and use the prices offered by the server chosen to make use of the SIP.

    Screenshot_2013-08-15-12-59-09

    Moreover we can also choose to ask us how we want to make a call at the time of realizing where we choose to use the traditional voice service or make the call via the Internet directly from the Android dialer.

    IMG_20130815_130645 (1)

    good use of this option included in Android we can save on our phone bills and take full advantage of both our Android as our data rate. Although there are a number of options and well-known alternatives such as Skype, Google Voice (not functional in Spain) or their own Hangouts, SIP servers give you the option to call traditional phones (landline and mobile) thing from Hangouts not possible and Google Voice is not active in Spain and lower prices than Skype.

    Google confirms that a 'crack' enabled Android security ... - RT in Spanish - International news

    This vulnerability in Java Cryptography Architecture of Android-origin of a Bitcoin transaction-was allegedly used to steal about $ 5,720 in Bitcoins a digital wallet last week. The revelation made by the Google security engineer, Alex Klyubin, was the first official confirmation of the vulnerability of Android after the incident.

    Klyubin warns that other applications can also be in danger if the developers do not change the way you access the calls PRNGs, generators abbreviation pseudo-random numbers.

    “We have determined that the applications using the Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA) for the cryptographic key generation, signing, or random number generation can not receive cryptographically strong values ??on Android devices due to incorrect initialization of the underlying PRNG “he wrote.

    The confirmation came a few hours after researchers from security firm Symantec warned that hundreds of thousands of Android applications may be affected by the vulnerability.

    The ransomware is becoming a serious problem for devices ... - 20minutos.es

    class=”text”> Android is becoming the major objective of cybercriminals because of its large share of marking. (FILE)

    That

    cybercrime growing threat to mobile devices is not new and that Android is target of most of the malicious programs that are on the websites application downloads, either.

    After a download may be that the application start and do not obey rare features. When the user attempts to control the device has no other choice but to reset to the initial conditions, or the malicious application requests an amount of money to return to normal. Actually there is a cyber criminal behind remotely controlling our apparatus to spy or, most often, extort. This is what is known as ransomware, and is becoming a serious problem in the platform Android , as explained from Consumer .

    What is ransomware

    The word “ransom” in English means rescue , and hence it can be inferred that refers to a ransomware malware hijacks us computer control and demands a ransom for return it. Technically we can not speak of virus because it is a program designed to spread to other devices (although it may do so) but to run on the computer, or a tablet and now also mobile user under a false appearance deceiving.

    class=”imp”> Android is the platform for handheld devices that is growing in the world The ransomware has been very common on computers, especially in the form of fake antivirus . The fake antivirus, also known as Fake AV or rogue antivirus , are a problem that goes way back. Forospyware page has counted about 1,000 fake antivirus, especially for the computer. It is recommended that any user with an offer of a little-known antivirus go to this list to check its suitability, but the list is not updated since 2011.

    Why

    against Android?

    But the problem has spread to the Android mobile operating system, mainly for two reasons. The first is that its open nature , Android has no control on the part of its creator, Google, on what can or can not install the equipment users that work based on it. Although this maximum is relative and there are certain limits, the fact is that Android is easy to create an alternative to the official store of applications, Google Play, from which programs not authorized to sell Google.

    Google recommended as a precaution only download apps from Google Play, where does control what sells or offers, but it is not a closed system like Apple’s iOS and can not avoid downloads from third party sites . Precisely these platforms are the fail of the ransomware to deceive and sneak into our devices.

    The second reason that this type of malware, as well as others, is growing in Android is that this is by far the platform for handheld devices that is growing in the world. The peculiarity of not being associated with a single manufacturer and not paying for a license for its use as it is free software (although Google does provide official certifications trusted manufacturers) has made extended he typed all devices.

    proliferation without excessive control, except in the big brands, has generated a common root operating system with many branches, some of them not too safe, in which the ransomware can enter easily application as attractive as leisure, service or solution to certain problems, such as viruses.

    The latest alarms about ransomware

    last alarm on ransomware infection in Android jumped in late June this year when most digital media announced that they had detected an invasion of many phones and tablets based on Android to download the application Android.Fakedefender . This in theory was a protector of the phone and tablet against ransomware applications.

    supposed Android.Fakedefender had a list of false applications to hide malware, detected and prevented the download. Thus, with Android.Fakedefender quiet user could download applications from any unofficial safely store, because the program would let him know if there was danger.

    However, Android.Fakedefender turned out to be the problem, not the remedy. When activated, the application took control devices and became dysfunctional. The user only had two options to return to normal: pay an amount or reveretir the device to factory settings, which was in danger of losing your contact information, phone numbers, etc..

    To avoid ransomware

    there in the store Google Play applications major antivirus companies and reliable as Norton or Symatec , but the best strategy is cautious. For starters, avoid alternative stores to download applications. If this caution does not apply, at least look on internet forums if negative references about the application you want to download. And when in doubt, of course abstain.

    The processing network sharing and accepts CERN Android - The Android Free

    large hadron collider de-7

    almost as amazing as the network of networks, and shares much in common with the Internet. In fact, part of the sense of the existence of the Internet is for this purpose. And although we may seem, not only to share files or information man lives. It is precisely because of that we enjoy, and enjoy new likely current and future developments. Because sharing our ability to process to attach it to a global network super computer which is something that we can do to contribute to several studies and projects.

    is not new, it’s actually something that has been in use for many years in scientific projects of all kinds. Projects as curious as ASTRO @ Seti that while we had the computer inactive, activated a wallpaper and took advantage of our processor to add it to a huge network of computers that process the signals received from space in search of signals of extraterrestrial intelligence. But large projects like CERN and particle collider.

    currently CERN has a network of 200,000 computers that process the 26 million Gigabytes the collider produces in a year . A negligible amount and, of course, need a good push. And to do nothing better than to have the help of Android, so CERN scientists have adapted the shared processing system so that they can participate mobile helping to process the huge amount of data.

    CERN_tunnel

    great news, both for the project, and for those who are already in place or can arise. Obviously is a new open door can benefit research, is not negligible the amount of terminals and today there can be a breath of fresh air very interesting. In fact already underway and have about 20,000 super smartphones connected to network.

    still in evidence but not take long to have an update of the network, including application, so that the power of our smartphones take advantage in times when not in use to keep discovering more about what surrounds us . It can certainly be an interesting way to work.

    The Face Unlock on Android and its importance in the new ... - The Android Free

    desbloqueofacial_android

    When he reached the version of Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0, one of the things that caught our attention was a new way to unlock mobile, innovative technology half and half wow effect -look what that makes my superphone- Face Unlock

    The Dark History of Face Unlock

    Nothing presented

    people began to detect that with a proper photo light and sometimes could circumvent this new pattern of security that Google had built. Also there who wanted to see this as a pass or escape to the then (more than now) bloody legal battles with Apple Google is bringing the unlock gesture. Everything forgot or faded over time , being the Face Unlock option as a feature that virtually no one uses, as far as I know.

    With the arrival of Jelly Bean 4.1, Google wanted improve function unlock , adding among others, the possibility that our face recognition system in more situations, with or without glasses, shaved or not, for example, and also the option of having to for unlocking flashing was completed , in short mejorándole, adding security and speed in recognizing our face. He passed again unnoticed and people continued with swipe gesture, PIN, or at most the famous drawn pattern unlock.


    Nothing has changed, but if the environment

    Android 4.3 Android 4.2 and nothing has changed, perhaps the best system performance speed and reactivity with Android 4.3 Nexus has made unlocking process only lasts half a second, ( hence in the header image of this article I cover the face to give me time to make the catch) but nothing else, except for one thing, the environment and the importance of the smartphone, that if you changed and is the reason why I want to refresh this feature of Android.

    smartphone every day that passes a essential element of our lives . Far beyond a communication element , not only phone, if not through messaging and social networking, but also a working tool in many cases, a gadget which serves as a complement to leisure to listen to music, watch videos, take pictures, and the latter with particular importance, cameras are virtually complete for a basic user. As sports GPS, basic weather station and so hundreds of features, almost as many as apps. And e e are closer than ever to make real that chimera of paying with your smartphone like a debit card.

    small device that is our privacy, even our identity , the digital part of our lives.

    Google has already presented its own set of recovery , android lock and remote location . So, if we can locate stolen phone, erasing block or make a beep if only we lost. Before this could be done with many other applications, but it was downright imperative that Android has this feature natively, as I say, is a serious matter our smartphone, and not just a material loss.

    With the arrival of Moto X, many things will change or at least will evolve more quickly, and it is the relationship with our smartphone increasingly direct, intimate neighb a, practically dependence (not in a bad way, robotics makes life easier) An assistant who knows us and knows us, and if it’s redundancy and wink, a small android to our service

    With this background and given that the function has improved since Android 4.0 highly recommend this release system. Perhaps for those who do not have any security just to swipe, you can do something heavy but for nothing more than put a PIN or an unlock pattern, much slower systems that Face Unlock.

    Give him another chance, and start to protect your phone, every day more important. Be with this system or other

Whatever the case without trust the data, both giving it positive, and negative, the fact is that with so many improvements, features and commitment to Google, it will be rare that Google Plus will one day not be a key piece of social networks, whether personal or content.
