Google Testing Extra Reminder Button In Inbox
Mar 22, 10:17PM

A few days ago, we noticed a new sight in Inbox by Gmail - another FAB. The new floating action button is blue, and exists only to create reminders. Since then, we've received numerous reports of the FAB popping up for more users. Personally, only one of my two accounts has the new FAB, suggesting that this might be a slow rollout or even an A/B test for the new feature.

[Weekend Poll] When's The Last Time You Bought A Paid App Or Game On The Play Store?

Mar 22, 5:46PM

DSC07410
This weekend's poll is about your money - and how you spend it. Specifically, on the Play Store. Now, when I ask if you've bough an app or game on the Play Store, I mean an app or game, not music, movies, books, or TV shows - nor any kind of subscription. For the purpose of this poll, purchases of "unlock" IAPs (in-app purchases) that unlock a full, ad-free, or "pro" version of an app or game will count.

Some Users Are Seeing Calendar Agenda Cards And Combined Travel Cards In Google Now

Mar 21, 8:20PM

unnamed (12)Have you noticed anything new when you open the primary Google Now interface? Probably - Google seems to be adding more stuff all the time, including support for integration with third-party apps. Over the last few weeks we've been getting tips about a new Calendar card, an agenda view for upcoming busy days, from a variety of Android Police readers. The rollout on this one seems particularly slow - don't be surprised if you don't see it for several weeks more.

Material Power Menu Replaces Lollipop's Standard Power Menu With A Prettier And More Useful Alternative

Mar 21, 6:46PM

unnamed (11)Before Android 5.0, the Android power menu (reached by pressing and holding the physical power button) included options for an airplane mode and setting the ringer to on, vibrate, or silent. And that was just the AOSP implementation: some manufacturer skins, custom ROMs, and root tools added extras like a screenshot button, a reboot menu, and other goodies. But with Android 5.0, we get... this.

The Airplane Mode and notification options have been moved to the Quick Settings menu and the volume rocker pop-up, respectively, but there's really no reason aside from aesthetics that the power menu should be so bare.

The ICC And Reliance Big Entertainment Release An Official Fantasy Cricket App For The World Cup

Mar 21, 5:26PM

unnamed (5)Cricket. Cricket. That's the one like baseball, but with the flat bats and a circular field and a ton of players and black tea afterwards, right? I apologize - as an American it's hard for me to concentrate on sports that don't involve constant concussions and commercial breaks every two minutes. But I am reliably informed that Cricket is enjoyed in Britain and all the places that used to be Britain (except this one).

Frozen Synapse Prime Brings Deep Tactical Gameplay From The PS Vita To Android

Mar 21, 4:45PM

unnamedTactical military strategy and RPGs make a natural fit for mobile platforms, especially tablets, thanks to a top-down battlefield and gameplay that's helped along by precision movement. Android already has a small but impressive collection of tactical strategy options, including notable PC/console games like XCOM and more niche options like Ambition of the Slimes. Now Android strategy fans can play Frozen Synapse Prime, a well-received remake of the original Frozen Synapse, for $5.

The New 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' Game Stays True To The Comic Book Universe

Mar 20, 11:55PM

unnamedYou may remember an X-Men film from last year with the same name as this game, and they do tell the same basic story. The difference, however, is the game is true to the 1981 comic book story line and the movie is... well, not. X-Men: Days of Future Past is also a regular paid game with no in-app purchases.

This is a side-scrolling action title that gives you the chance to play as characters like Wolverine, Storm, Shadowcat, Colossus, Cyclops, and Scarlet Witch.
