Hello goons, which dual space type app let me install more than 2 instants of the same app? I used to do it with Titanium Backup but i don't root phones anymore.

What's the current hotness in weather / radar apps? Raindar has been throwing an error, and all I want is a radar feed with no subscription.

Any recs on a sound recorder? If it helps, I'm specifically going to use it to record any noise in my bedroom while I'm asleep, so the ability to set a noise threshold and only record anything above that would be good.

Ventusky is ok and has a free layer called radar. I don't know anything about that being real or not.

FunOne posted:Real radar? Radarscope Radarscope is amazing and the hosed up thing is that it shouldn't be. It shouldn't be some standout paid app because there should be hi-res radar feeds like that available to everyone free of charge. I have never understood this lack of access. Sure, add bells and whistles and charge for them, but at least let me have just the highest res imagery for even just a 6 frame loop for free.

Do people still use Tasker or is there something better for what I need? Mostly I use it to turn my ringer off and on around the classes I teach based on entries in my calendar. Then I also use it to turn the ringer off at night. Every time the phone updates though I have to somehow re-allow it to access volume controls or something and my poo poo wakes me up at night or I miss calls between lessons. I guess I need to figure out the different silent modes too (why does do not disturb mean media is forever muted?). Any good apps for connecting a calendar to volume settings?

Sounds like you wanna dig into the do not disturb settings to make that work (generally works fine for me with a Pixel running stock Android).

Both those options are covered in Android's Do Not Disturb settings, assuming you're on a newish version.

Try the Samsung Sound Assist app. It let me put custom rules on my Tab S5e, but I can't remember if it supported calendar sync

Do Google Rewards expire or something? I don't get many surveys but I don't spend anything either, I remember the last time I had a survey, I had 57ish in the account, and total I got a survey, but account is now only $9?

I think after 1 year? Maybe less? Go into the Play Store, select Payment Methods, and find your play credit on the list. It should state when the next deduction (ie expiration) will be.

Femur posted:So my account will be zero on 11/10/2019 .. welp. I could be wrong, but I don't think the deduction on that Payment Methods page tells you how much will be deducted on the next date. Only that some will (which isn't terribly helpful). It's not new, I don't think. They haven't always been very clear about it, though (and still really aren't).

Every time you get a credit from the survey thing it says "this will expire in a year". It's mostly just not clear to users that it means that individual credit and not "oh you got more the date is refreshed".

I had the same thing happen to me where I lost ~$53 the same time Femur did. I guarantee I didn't take a survey for $53 the year before (and in fact when I look at the history that's verified). Something changed where they just took a bunch of money from some of us. What I would believe is that they had never been removing things after a year despite claiming they would and they just turned it on. That's entirely possible. Femur posted:Ok thank you, thats really surprising, because ive never spent it, and barely get any, and total lifetime is 76 starting 2014, so how did i emass 57 in 1 yr rolling period.. About $50/year is what you get if my four and a half year history is to be believed.

It looks like the Pixel 4 series running Android 10 now finally supports gesture navigation within third party launchers; so I'm really hoping this propagates down the line soon. I miss using Nova Launcher on my Pixel 2 XL, but I love gesture navigation too much.

I miss using Nova Launcher on my Pixel 2 XL, but I love gesture navigation too much. Yeah, but it's still a little wonky on the 4/4XL at this point. It kinda trips up when you open the recents, since the standard behavior is to show recent/search/dock/app drawer. But, since that layout is coming from Pixel Launcher itself, it doesn't exactly know how to handle recents properly when those elements aren't hardcoded to always be there. Hopefully they'll smooth it out at the same time they extend gesture nav to 3rd party launchers on older models.

Thanks to Top Shot in Pixel 3 and Pixel 4, the Pixel 2 will lose Smart Burst with Google Camera 7.2. Unfortunately, Top Shot is P3/4 only so now the P2 has nothing. Yay! ThermoPhysical fucked around with this message at 18:08 on Nov 6, 2019 |

Mentioned this a while ago and a few other people said they also had it:KICK BAMA KICK posted:AMDroid is doing something really annoying: before the alarm sound starts gently fading in like I intend, I get the standard notification chime at full whatever-that's-set-to volume, which instantly wakes me up. Was working as intended until this started happening maybe a week ago; I thought it might have been tied to an Android update but didn't pin it down then. Do Not Disturb has always been on. Any ideas for a system or AMDroid setting to look at? Pixel 3a, all the recent updates. bull3964 posted:If you go into the notification category in settings, under advanced there should be an option to choose a different sound for the notification. From there, you can just choose "None." Might help y'all: CLAM DOWN posted:Yeah, it's why I switched back to the stock alarm clock app. 10 did something...weird. hot date tonight! posted:This started happening for me too with android 10, I haven't tried to fix it at all I've just been annoyed by it. Could probably silence the alarm notification and still have the alarm go off, but I have no idea. Maybe set do not disturb to stay on until 5 minutes after the alarm?
