I suspect it looks nice on a tablet, which is what the developer knob used when designing this update. :(

It sucks on a phone.

Never thought about that, but seems logical. Haven't got a tab atm, but would like to compare when my daughter arrives at the weekend.

No link is a sin. But this of course is perfectly acceptable.

My sincere apologies, I was unaware that douches spelt douche differently to normal English speaking people. I guess I never will know how seeing as I am not one, unless of course you choose to enlighten us so that we may refer to you in words you will understand.

Sour grapes much?

Your first post in here ;) is to give people schit about Waze and then when you try to participate, I give you a friendly reminder to provide the link and a reason why you recommend the app. An attitude like this is why people are giving gears.

Yes boss. Sorry boss. ;)

Edit: Just by the by, a Play Store search is far easier than posting a link. When I try to search it opens in Play Store automatically and Play Store does not offer an easy way to share or copy a link. Of course, I can make an effort and find the link but surely far easier for someone who may be interested to just search. As for a description I think the name pretty much gives it away.


But let's try and get back on topic. It would have expended far less energy for everyone to just search themselves. Just saying.

I'm convinced its the colour scheme that is the biggest issue here. The white writing doesn't work and is on more than one place.

Another thing...the forum category/section is taking up all the space. It wasn't there before. Previously there was just postcount , view count and time to the right of the thread title

and far less if you'd given a link and your rationale

Wow, that share button just after the comments must be so flipping complicated.
Scroll down > tap > tap.

Edit: was going to give it 2 stars on play store. But after seeing everyone else today giving it 1 star...I joined the mob

Have you actually clicked on any of the links we share here? it takes you right to the play store entry, where you can just click on install. Doesn't matter if you are on mobile or PC.

I guess your gripe is getting the link from the play store app on your phone and then posting it here. Just click share, and say "copy to clipboard" should do the trick.

Been using this a few days to get through long tech mp3's (up to 2,5 hrs each) & working out very well. Excellent app., in fact.

Have found optimal settings to be between 1.4x - 1.6x normal speed, obviously depending on how fast original being spoken.

Key points based on briefly using it :
Press down-facing white arrow to set a marker anywhere in mp3 to return to ; swipe right in the app to tick on old markers, and delete them.

Can set pause/play & fast fwd/rewind button in lock-screen (very useful : click fast fwd quickly/multiple times, when there are ads. to get through).

To refresh deleted mp3's, click folder icon (bottom-right), then click on the various sub-headings to refresh ; Note: not sure if you can even delete mp3's in the app (at least, I don't find anywhere to) ;
I go back to MX Player which I've been using for a long time, and del. them there (then do the refresh part in "Audipo" app.).

You actually read the comments of apps?! Wow.

But thanks, I never usually do and you now educated me that a share button exists way down there. Way out of norm based on the rest of Android. Pity it's of no use now though as I'm unlikely to share anything more in here with this ungrateful bunch :D

You contribution will be sorely missed.

I find it best when contributions are meaningful and useful.

Just shouting out an apps name is as useful as a one armed trapeze artist with an itchy arse.

Interesting analogy. I would assume a one armed trapeze artist would be a rather valued circus attraction. And he'd no doubt be of far more value than a non-existent trapeze artist. Give that a little thought...

Lol. When I installed it I didn't know it had the audio enabled. I just need the times as the shops all close here in Saudi at prayer times. Man, I nearly wet myself when Ishaa prayer was announced on full blast and I was dozing on the couch :D
