Does Get Glue track? I know the whole point of it is to list what you watch.

PaganGoatPants posted:Never seen anything like it. They're REALLY committed to making it feel like a native app. It shows up in the location services privacy settings, and when you follow a link to an external site (like a weather alert or something) instead of just firing up a web view they actually go through the whole "warning, this will be opened in Safari" business, and then they really do kick you over to Safari. The sliding-panel GUI is drat near flawless too, all the springy-feedback stuff feels really convincing. I'm not actually sure if this is a weather site/app or a bid to get acquired for their HTML5 development team.

Of course nothing is going to be perfect but I think they're dismissing it pretty fast. Something from the Dark Sky website: quote:It’s very much a numerical & statistical approach, rather than a meteorological one. Since we’ve launched the Kickstarter project, we’ve had several people (many of them meteorologists) criticize it because it eschews physical modeling of atmospheric fluid dynamics. And it’s true that our system will never be able to predict six hours in the future, let alone a day from now. But by focusing on the immediate future, and leaving everything beyond to the meteorologists, we can create a highly accurate app that is useful in a surprisingly wide range of applications.

Zigmidge posted:Or you can use wunderground and have accurate data. Exactly. None of these "pretty" iOS weather apps are worth poo poo if the data is inaccurate. Weather Underground has very accurate data and maps, and the mobile site works just fine, even if it's not the best looking. If you must have a native app, they've got one.

I like wunderground for radar, but their highs and lows are usually off by 5 degrees where I am. Also their popups showing county by county snow/rainfall is an ugly block of text they get directly from the NWS.

My assumption is that anyone that needs an app on their mobile phone to check the weather is already outside or does not have access to "more accurate" sources. If you are planning an excursion that requires precise information (like the high being 5 degrees off like was mentioned previously) you probably already have the resources to find it on a "more accurate" platform and will plan out ahead of time.

I suppose I could use evernote or whatever but it would be handy just having a searchable list of movies where I could give them a rating how much I liked them and some notes etc. I like Episode Tracker Lite. Edit - I have not used this for movies, only TV shows. I don't know if it does movies (probably not). langurmonkey fucked around with this message at 22:42 on Apr 5, 2013 |

Dragonrah posted:Is there a trustworthy iPad app for Google chat? Google really doesn't care about chat on iOS it seems. They really dropped the ball IMO... Google Chat was reasonably popular way back, and they could've sling shotted that popularity into the de facto ubiquitous and mobile messaging platform for everyone. Alas, we're stuck with imperfect alternatives like Facebook, whatsapp, and iMessage.

I use IMO on my iPhone and it works well enough. There is an iPad version available in the app store as well (free). There's rumors that google is going to overhaul chat and integrate google+ and chat into something possibly called Babel. Maybe they're working on an app as we speak.

There's an app on the Playstation Vita called "Wake Up Club," which is basically a social alarm clock. It puts you in a group of people who all have their alarm set for the same time, and then when the alarm clock goes off, if everyone wakes up and taps the screen in time you basically "win." If someone in your group doesn't wake up, you can tap on their icons to send slightly annoying "chirps" that play through their Vita to help them wake up. If anyone sleeps 5 minutes past the alarm, everyone loses. Is there anything like this for iOS?

Does anyone have suggestions for a good voice recording app for the iPhone? All I'm really looking for is Dropbox integration and (preferably) the ability to record only when there's sound. I see that Audio Memos does a million things including that but it's all IAP based, but Dropvox doesn't seem to do the silence-negating. Has anyone used either of these, or is there another option that works better?
