I don't want to derail this lovely conversation, but maybe start it's own thread.... none of this is really a "Useful Android App"
ya I thought I was in Hardware Bargains for a minute there

GridWatch by News24......now with ADS! 
The mobile site has ads, so no surprise. I hate the app though - it lumps all the stages together. So much harder to read than the website.GridWatch by News24......now with ADS!

The app never had ads, until a recent update
And neither did the mobile website, until recently. That's my point.

Ok, I see. It pisses me off, though.
This is why I don't let apps automatically update. Updates often beaks functionality. If it ain't broke...

This does look cool. Going to try it out.
But then you might miss out on new functionalitydouble edge sword
Yeah. If in doubt, I try to read through some the comments in the Play Store before updating & I backup the apk to my Google drive in some instances.

anyone using F-Droid?
Gave it a try more than once. Always end up removing it though. Not much I can't find on Play Store.
The only reason I still have Amazon App Store installed is the free apps...

More bloat, some good apps on there, one being adaway but you can rather direct dl the app from the fdroid website and side load it.

Anyone try the premium subscription on the brain training apps like Luminosity or Elevate?
Enjoying Elevate free , keen to get a year for R480, should probably start with a month at R80 but the eternally thrifty voice inside me wants to get hoodwinked by the "cheaper" year premium without knowing if premium is worth it. Going by the free though it looks great.
