Apps Sales For January 31, 2013: Shadowgun, Samurai II, Reddit News, And More

Posted by in Apps/Games, Deals, News

When it comes to buying apps, I try to wait until a sale comes along. I usually end up buying things on a whim most of the time anyway, but I try to wait – especially for games and such that may be outside of who much I'm willing to spend on one app. If you're also the type who waits for a good sale to roll around, some pretty decent price drops just hit the Play Store sales floor.

A nice variety of apps there: a couple games, a reddit browser, a barcode scanner/organizer, and a fitness tracker.

Reddit News Updated To Version 6, Adds Sliding User Interface And Multiple Account Support

Posted by in Apps/Games, News

There are a lot of Reddit users in the Android Police audience, and more than a few on the editorial team, so we like to highlight a quality Reddit browser when it comes along. And Reddit News certainly fits the bill: it's been one of the most consistently solid options for Android smartphones (and just lately, tablets) for some time. The latest update adds the oh-so-nice feature of sliding panels in the Holo interface, as well as support for multiple Reddit accounts at the same time.

The intuitive nature of the various sliding UI mechanics incorporates a lot of the usability mechanics and visual flair of the Google+ app.
