What about Huddle with G+? I don't know if that's on iPhone, but it seems like it'll do it.

(It's called Messenger now) G+ Messenger works well between myself and my iOS using friends.

Using G+ messenger makes WAY less sense than FB messenger (to me).

Yeah it certainly doesn't make sense to use if none of your friends are on G+!

I'm just not a fan of how it stores them in your FB messages and pops up in FB if you're browsing. A convenience for some, but G+ is easier to just gently caress around with.

Can anyone recommend a good app for managing Task lists in GMail? GTask doesn't switch user accounts well...

Tasks is pretty good and has multiple account support.

There's a free version as well.

So in honor of MCA I've been trying to make Shake Your Rump my ringtone. Ringtone Maker worked great for the notification (SHAKE YO RUMPAH) but I've tried four different apps to make the actual ringtone (the first 30 seconds of the song) but each time they make a file that won't even play. I mean, I could go boot up my computer and do it in Audacity but I'm really confused as to why none of the apps are working. Did ICS change something with ringtone making? And, if so, why the heck does making notifications still work?

Ringdroid works for me, not sure about your ICS question though.

Just put the mp3 in your (or make a folder called) Ringtones, it'll show up in your Settings/Sound/Phone Ringtone.

So uh, I bought an album on the Google Play store this morning and only like half the tracks showed up in my library. I've bought a few albums on there and it's never taken more than 10 minutes. I emailed support but has anyone else had an issue like this?

I checked the last 5 pages of this thread and didn't see anything. Is anyone having problems logging into the Awful app? Mine is saying "Login Failed!".

I tried logging out on a PC and logging in and my credentials work. I tried copy/pasting both my user and pass from keepassdroid and it still fails. Is something wrong?

The first two free apps on the Google store didn't work... I'd be willing to pay for an app if it worked, and made quality recordings.

So I just found the most amazing timer app. In fact, its quite possibly the best designed Android app I've seen. It's called Ovo and you should download it immediately.

My swiftkey 3 beta expired today. Can I download the beta again and continue to use it? It seems sort of counter-intuitive to have a beta for the community to test your product, only to take it away before they release the actual product, especially considering that I'm going to have to pay to upgrade to swiftkey 3 even after having purchased both the original swiftkey and swiftkey x.

I bought BeWeather because it's nice for drilling in and looking at more details like hour by hour forecasts.

I still use the Beautiful Widgets forecast widget because it has customisable icons and I have BeWeather set as the app to open after clicking.

Don't know where you're getting the idea you'll have to pay again there's been no indication that will be the case. Don't know why you would have had to pay for X after buying the original though, I never had to.

That did the trick, thanks very much. They also seem to have done at least a bit of work on my issue of typing two handed and having it delete words because it can't keep up with multitouch.

Have you tried disabling the default lock screen in the the security settings? I remember having to turn it off completely for golocker to work correctly.
