In fairness to the Weather app I only opened it once, so it might be a one time thing. I still really like the Yahoo Weather app (especially the look of it), I just like BeWeather more.

Yeah, rating it 1 because of the big egregious ads. Hopefully they'll get enough bad feedback to outweigh the money from the ads and reverse it.

Random question, is there a good app for streaming media (specifically videos) from a computer to an iOS device?

I use FileExplorer, which I believe has a built in player, but I combine it with VLC which will play anything. This works easiest with local network content, but I think you could set something up to access your content away from home.

I'd love to combine anything with VLC, but it's not available on the app store and after about an hour trying to gently caress with trying to get it to compile and run properly in XCode I gave up.

iTunes home sharing technically works for video, if you need a stopgap solution until you settle on something that doesn't suck.

Comiczeal can do that, as well as through Dropbox, etc. It's still the best I've found, even though I hate their slider organizer thing.

ComicRack does this, but the desktop version is Windows only and while the desktop version is free, the iOS version is $7.99.

I'm looking for an app to browse/view/edit files over my local network and just now tried Documents. It's pretty great but I want to be able to view files like images and videos without them being saved to the local storage on the ipad (streaming them or whatever?). Is that possible with Goodreader or something else? Bonus question: "Best" photo manager app that can read/manage image keywords added in Aperture or Adobe Bridge?

"Streaming" just means that it's stored in a local temp folder instead of a local permanent folder. File Browser will work great for what you want.

There's a new scanning app from Evernote out. I don't know what it's like though as the App Store won't let me download anything at the moment.

I'm too lazy to quote poo poo but nPlayer was the correct answer to 50% of the questions in this page. And the last. And probably all of them since the start.

Are there any podcast apps that pause audio during notifications instead of just turning down the volume a bit? I listen to podcasts when I drive and I also use Waze most of the time, and when it reads off a new direction it can drown out the podcast.

Star War Sex Parrot posted:I believe the answer is "none, you have to jailbreak" if I remember correctly from all the other times this has been asked. Google Voice app used to do it, but you had to set up a certain way. I don't know if they've since removed that capability. But if you're talking native phone calls, jailbreaking is the only way as the Parrot says.

The legality of recording phone conversations varies widely by location and who you're calling, hence the reason why there aren't any Apple-approved solutions and jailbreaking is your only option.

As far as I know audio ducking during notifications is a system wide ios setting. Basically jailbreak or deal with it.

Yeah, they did some weird stuff with ComicZeal. I had the original one on my iPhone 3g, then it became a universal app, got pulled, they released separate ones, and now a new one that is universal again? No loving clue, but I have it on my ipad, but it says I don't own it in the app store (it updates fine though). The current version does all of that though.

Is there any reason as to why the App Store would be denying me access to the Google Play Music app on my iPad? It insists that another account already purchased a free app, or the store has otherwise cancelled a purchase that was never supposed to occur. Edit: looks like logging out did the trick.

Has the youtube official app performance gone to poo poo lately for anyone, or is it just my 5 starting to show its age? Most notably rotating from portrait to landscape takes forever and it sometimes freaks out and spews gui elements all over the video after rotating.
