Yeah, great launcher with an enormous wealth of advertisement. I used it for more than 4 months but got rid of it because the increasing amount of junk it downloaded without my permission. There are a lot of launchers the same size and quality, but without any ads and crapware.

Get some cityscape on your home screen with these wallpapers
Not all of us get to zip around the world seeing amazing cities.
That doesn't mean we can't witness and savor the beauty of other cities and their lovely skylines around the world. Cityscapes have been popular wallpapers for a reason: they're gorgeous, and they add sophistication to a home screen. They inspire us to expand our horizons. They let us escape our own drab little corners of the world for somewhere new, fun, and exotic. Let's go around the world, shall we?
This wonderful view of Budapest's Chain Bridge is all about connections, as the lights tie everything in the image together. From the cars scurrying back and forth across the bridge itself to the erratic strands of fairy light that bounce about the bridge, the rooftops, and the lampposts, this is a cityscape that beckons you the come into the light and connect to this lovely world.
Cityscape recolored by simen91
Cityscape wallpapers give us glimpses into worlds we will never see, and there are few places that is more true of than the gleaming metropolis of Doha, capital city of Qatar. The shining city gleams like a jewel as it sit upon Doha Bay, and looking like this, you would never guess this was in the Middle East rather than some bustling Asian hub. The city lights reflect on the calm waters of the bay, giving with the mesmerizing display.
Not all cityscapes are brilliant and crisp, and this rendition by VonSchlippe could tell a hundred different stories, from the sparse Christmas lights slung up between the streets and the mish-mash of architectural styles and awnings of the shops far below. This is a city bustling with life and with culture, and I can't wait to explore it.
This crisp, monochromatic take on a city skyline adds depth as it plays in shades of simple cerulean. It's breathtaking, but the true brilliance comes as it mixes the minimalistic look of the cityscape with the ripples of the water and the stars above. Also, take this wallpaper, add Whicons: instant theme.

"He figured she'd gone back to Austin, 'cause she talking about it all the time…"
Blake Shelton's dream girl in Austin has the right idea, because no matter how far you wander, there'll always be something about Austin. SXSW. Austin City Limits. Circuit of the Americas. Austin has a bit of everything, and that includes a lot of nerds. Austin is a bit of a tech town and a bit of an arts town, but the whole town is authentically Texan and authentically AWESOME. Besides, at the end of every whirlwind trip, the important thing is to come home, and I am proud to call this city home.
Android Pay now available in New Zealand
Android Pay has arrived in New Zealand!
New Zealand is the latest country to receive support for Android Pay. New Zealanders who bank through the Bank of New Zealand can add their Flexi Debit Visa to their phone via the Android Pay app, then pay for gas, food and more at a number of popular businesses using just their phone.
There are several New Zealand businesses that support Android Pay — whether you're looking to grab a bite to eat at McDonald's, Burger Fuel, or Domino's, do some shopping at Noel Leeming or Torpedo7, or make payments at mobile carriers 2degrees or Spark.
Currently, the Bank of New Zealand is the only financial institution supported, and the BNZ Flexi Debit Visa is the only card you're able to add. Time will tell if other New Zealand banks will hop on the Android Pay bandwagon, or whether other BNZ cards will be added to the service.

Moto Z may get a Google Tango Moto Mod in 2017
Let's Tango, Moto.
Right now, Google Tango is a great idea trapped inside mediocre hardware. As we saw in Lenovo's Phab 2 Pro, there is a lot of potential in the camera-reliant augmented reality technology, but right now there's really no reason for a consumer to invest in it.
Motorola, Lenovo's mobile-focused subsidiary, plans to change that in 2017 with a Google Tango Moto Mod, according to company president Aymar de Lencquesaing, speaking to a group of reporters at a meeting in Chicago. "We're likely to to have a Tango module to basically enable the Z to have Tango functionality," noting that "augmented reality on a phone is a technology that's likely to stick." There is tons of potential there, he continued. "We'll follow, or lead, the market in this area."
Lenovo, Motorola's parent company, worked directly with Google on the Tango-powered Phab 2 Pro, which happens to be the first consumer product to work with the nascent technology. de Lencquesaing wouldn't go as far as to confirm the existence of a Tango Moto Mod, but hinted that it would be a natural progression for Motorola's modular platform, which currently works on the Moto Z, Moto Z Force and Moto Z Play.
OnePlus 3 gets its first beta Android 7.0 Nougat build
Manually jump to the latest software right now.
As we tip over to December we're still waiting for an official OTA update to Android 7.0 Nougat on the OnePlus 3, but the most anxious among us can now be the first to see what OnePlus has done with Nougat by installing the latest Open Beta 8 software. Because of the big jump this latest beta will not arrive over the air for current Open Beta users — you'll have to manually apply this update.
The quick changelog from OnePlus:
- Upgraded to Android 7.0 Nougat
- New Notifications Design
- New Settings Menu Design
- Multi-Window View
- Notification Direct Reply
- Custom DPI Support
- Added Status Bar Icon Options
- Added Quick Launch For 3rd Party Applications
- Improved Shelf Customization
As is always the case with beta software — particularly the first release of a new platform version — we want to give the proper amount of caution here to let you know this will be unstable and potentially have issues. OnePlus notes that right off the bat Android Pay may not work properly, and there are general stability and performance problems.
You get the latest software, but be ready for potential bugs.
More importantly for some, you won't be able to simply downgrade back to Android Marshmallow if you're unhappy with this beta Nougat experience. The only way to go back to Marshmallow requires a special Open Beta build (available from OnePlus customer service) that will format your device, so proceed with caution here as it's a one-way street unless you want to lose your data.
For those who are aware of the risks and willing to give Nougat a try on their OnePlus 3, head to the OnePlus forums and grab a download of the 1.3GB .zip file containing the new update. Hook up to your computer and use the "adb sideload" command to apply the update as you would any other update, or if you are already on an Open Beta build you can simply put the file on your phone and manually update through the system settings.
Google's latest Santa Tracker arrives with new game and visual redesign
Get in the spirit of the season.
Google's yearly refresh of its Santa Tracker always brings some new fun and a fresh take on the Santa story, and the 2016 iteration is now available in Google Play and on the web. As always, the Santa Tracker app and website bring tons of interactive activities and games to help kids pass the time while waiting for Santa to arrive.
Alongside a full slate of simple and fun games in the app, there's a new game called Present Quest that actually tasks you with walking around in your city to collect virtual presents and drop them off places. Santa's Village has been redesigned and upgraded in both the app and web as well, and if you head to the website on your computer you'll have a different set of browser games available.
The new app and website are full of good fun time killers for kids and adults alike, even if you don't want to get up and walk around in the cold for a high score in Present Quest. Download the Santa Tracker today, and maybe you'll enjoy playing some games whne you're with the family this holiday season and even throw up the complete Santa Tracker experience on your Chromecast when we hit December 24.
YouTube enables 4K live video streaming for all
Quadruple the resolution for your streaming needs.
Though you've been able to upload (and of course watch) 4K resolution video on YouTube for years now, the world's most popular video hosting service is now enabling live streaming in the new higher resolution, including 360-degree videos. From the viewer's perspective nothing will change, aside from the fact that live videos will now have the same option to bump up to 4K resolution as when you're watching a recorded video. The change here is really for content creators who are ready to make the jump up to 4K.
Just like when YouTube enabled 4K uploads back in 2010, enabling 4K streaming is a bit ahead of its time considering how much extra hardware and bandwidth are required to consistently stream at that rate. YouTube's help docs lay things out, but it basically comes down to having four to five times the bandwidth available to consistently stream in 4K.
If you're using the basic "stream now" interface inside YouTube, the bitrate will automatically be selected based on your encoder settings and give you the highest possible resolution. At this time there's no option to optimize for lower latency, as the site will instead optimize for the least amount of buffering on the viewer's end.
To show off the new higher-resolution streaming tech, you'll be able to watch The Game Awards tomorrow (6 p.m. ET) streaming in 4K directly in YouTube.
Amex Pay launches for American Express cardholders in Canada
Amex cardmembers in Canada can try out Amex Pay on their NFC-enabled Android devices.
American Express is giving Canadian cardmembers a new way to pay, launching Amex Pay as a new feature built into the pre-existing Amex CA app for Android. Amex Pay will work for any Amex cardmember with Consumer, Small Business, or Corporate Cards issued by Amex Bank of Canada, and an NFC-enabled Android phone with the Amex app installed.
You're able to activate up to six cards on one device, but cards can only be activated for Amex Pay on one device at a time. When you add a card to the app, it creates a Device Card Number — a unique code that pairs your card to your device. If at any point you get a new phone, you must deactivate your cards on your old device before adding them to the new phone. If you happen to lose your Amex card, you can continue to use Amex Pay on your phone as you do while waiting for the replacement card to arrive. Your replacement card will automatically remain linked to your device thanks to the Device Card Number.
There are some caveats, however. Prepaid cards and products (such as the American Express Gift Card) as well as Corporate Purchasing Cards, Global Dollar Cards and Corporate Meeting Cards are not eligible for Amex Pay, and if your phone loses it's connection to the Internet, you are only permitted to make five transactions or authorizations before you are required to reconnect.
If you're an Amex cardholder in Canada and you haven't yet checked out the Amex app, now is as good a time as ever. You'll also get the benefit to manage your accounts with customizable features such as payment due and statement ready alerts, view PDF statements and pending transactions, as well as redeem your rewards points for eligible travel and everyday purchases charged to the card.
You can grab a $94 discount on the ASUS OnHub router today!
Grab one before the great rebranding!
Google's efforts in connecting your home have been going a little slower than many had hoped. Announcements for Weave, Brillo, and OnHub made it seem like Google was ready to tie your home together in short order and have you ready to connect your home to your phone, but reality hasn't quite caught up yet. We're now seeing Google transition from OnHub to Google WiFi, with some new hardware to allow for mesh networking if you need it.
That doesn't mean your existing OnHub router isn't any good, in fact they will work great with the new Google WiFi expanders. Which also means you can get started connecting your home Google WiFi style right now with some seriously discounted OnHub equipment and be happier in the long run.
While the TP-Link OnHub router is a little more difficult to get on a great deal, the ASUS OnHub router is ready to be delivered to your home for $94 off the original price. That means you can get started with Google WiFi for less than the cost of one of the new single white pucks, and expand as necessary. Plus, when Google finally figures out how the rest of their connected home strategy is actually going to work, OnHub will be there to receive an update.

Riptide GP: Renegade
Riptide GP: Renegade is the latest and greatest in futuristic jet ski racing franchise on Android. Harkening back to memories of games like Jet Moto or Wave Race 64, Riptide GP: Renegade features a story-driven career mode alongside options to run a quick race or battle against online opponents. The graphics are top notch, with water and motion blur effects really giving the game a good sense of speed. It uses tilt-steering to control your hydrojet, which is less than ideal, but Bluetooth gamepads are also supported and make things smoother. Speaking of controls, one key aspect of the game is pulling off insane stunts, which are easy to do with quick swipes. There's plenty to unlock and upgrade as you play through the career mode, and the AI is top notch, providing a real challenge compared to other racing games for Android. You'll need a pretty good phone to handle the graphics and gameplay, and also plays great on the NVIDIA Shield tablet and Android TV box.

Asphalt 8: Airborne
Asphalt 8: Airborne is our favorite racing game on mobile right now. It skips all pretensions of realism and provides an over-the-top, high-octane game with all the fixings. Players can work (or pay) their way through the career mode, unlock new rides, upgrade the ones they have, or take the competition online in staggered or live multiplayer. The usual race modes are there, plus a new 'Infected' one where players have to tag other racers before succumbing to an explosive virus.
The incredibly polished graphics and outstanding soundtrack make Asphalt 8 an adrenaline trip you won't soon forget.

Beach Buggy Blitz
Beach Buggy Blitz is a fun, easy-going racing game where players cruise along the coast of a tropical beach, trying to hit progressive checkpoints before the timer runs out. Gathering coins along the way helps fund your buggy upgrades, but make sure to avoid the various huts, animals, and fellow racers strewn about the course — impacts will slow you down. The graphics are colorful and smooth, including some nice water, dust, and lighting effects.
Hop into Beach Buggy Blitz if you're looking for something light and kid-friendly.

Horizon Chase - World Tour
Horizon Chase is a fun retro-style racer with gameplay reminiscent of the of the classic 80s arcade racer Pole Position. Featuring bright and colorful retro graphics over 70 tracks spanning 32 cities, there's plenty of fun to be had here. You start each race from the back of a 20 car pack, and must weave your way past your opponents to take the crown. Keep winning to upgrade and unlock up 16 available cars.
You get to play the San Francisco tracks but then must pay to unlock the full game. Given how beautiful and fun this game is, we bet you will.

Whether you're a fan of the race series, or just want to live the dream of being a pilot, this game is legit.

Repulze
Repulze is proof that not all great racing games require wheels. If you're a fan of the F-Zero or Wipeout franchises, you'll love Repulze. Race through 24 winding, gravity-defying tracks in experimental hovercrafts. Another thing that sets Repulze apart from other games is the way you collect turbo boosts. Based on your craft's polarity, you either aim to go through green or red gates, which unlock boosts. And the whole game is wrapped up in an overarching storyline about the evil corporation controlling everything from the shadows.
Repulze is a fantastic, futuristic racer that's definitely worth the $0.99 price tag.
Thumb Drift - Furious Racing
Want to race, but only have one hand free? Thumb Drift is the perfect game for you! Featuring charming graphics and a simple premise, your goal is to drift sideways through four increasingly challenging courses. With over 70 cars to buy via in-app purchases, or unlock randomly using coins collected on the track, there's hours of mindless fun to be had here.
Thumb Drift is the casual, endless racer you've been waiting for.
Real Racing 3
Real Racing 3 is bound to keep gearheads entertained. It puts real brand-name cars on real-world tracks - hence the name. It features an interesting asynchronous multiplayer system whereby lap times are recorded from your friends, and you race against a bot that's driving at that time. Of course you can bump them out and affect their track time, and there's a single-player career worth playing through too. Over time, players earn new cars and can upgrade various mechanical bits with their winnings, but make sure you take it easy on your car — you'll have to keep your ride in good condition to avoid repair costs.
Real Racing 3 is absolutely gorgeous, and the white-knuckled racing action will keep you coming back for more.

Fast & Furious Legacy
Fast & Furious Legacy is a racing game based on the popular action movies. The game features a good mix of different races and missions.

Fast & Furious Legacy offers bite-sized racing with varied gameplay and beautiful graphics.

Death Rally
Death Rally is a gritty, combat-heavy top-down racing title. Players deck out their ride with all manner of Mad Max-style weaponry and eliminate competitors in races and straight-up death matches. Weapon parts litter every battlefield, as well as cash bonuses and nitro speed boosts. The nice thing about Death Rally is that even if you don't place first in a race, you can still walk away with a fair bit of cash just from blowing up opponents.
Death Rally is a great title for those looking to unload a bit of road rage.
CSR Racing
CSR Racing is a clean-cut drag racing game. Players needn't worry about steering — all you have to do is perfectly time your gear changes. Indicators tell when to make your next shift, and assuming your timing is up to snuff and your ride is amply upgraded, you should pull across the finish line before your opponent, and earn some winnings. Premium currency can be used to buy high-end cars, while the standard currency can be used to buy the others, as well as upgrade specific parts such as the gear box, engine, intake, and body.
CSR Racing boils down the racing experience to pure twitch reflexes.
