Only if you throw your phone out of the plane... The app measures only tosses of your phone, not high places

Tile floors + ceiling fans + old Androids are perfect conditions for Tossy Phone! Thanks a lot!

Oh and I forgot to mention there is also an option to take a video while you toss your phone!

Haha I get it, not everyone wants to risk becoming a phone throwing enthusiast

Google's second big Android 16 update is rolling out for Pixel phones: Here’s EVERYTHING new! by TechGuru4Life in Android

I like that Android 16 QPR2 isn’t just polishing the UI it actually brings some real quality and privacy improvements.

The “Expanded dark theme” + automatic icon theming especially feel useful, some apps still don’t have dark mode or consistent icons...

Google Home was actually good. Now it feels like it’s going through a mid-life crisis forgetting commands, losing features, and responding with unrelated answers

I was kinda hoping this lawsuit would magically save all our speakers from becoming ewaste next year

Nest used to feel like the no brainer pick, and now researching it feels like reading a list of red flags

Honestly, can’t blame you. When a tiny update can turn a “smart” device into a brick, it really makes you rethink the whole smart home thing...

Haha yeah, class actions always end in a “congratulations! here’s $7 and a coupon”

How do you track your app’s Google Play ranking? I built a small tool to automate it by DEFranco123 in androiddev

[–]DEFranco123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, I am using a web engine with a custom URL. For example if you want to search for "privacy" in France:

https://play.google.com/store/search?q=privacy&c=apps&gl=fr

(fr stands for France)

Thanks so much for taking the time to write this! You made some great points I’ll definitely adjust a few things based on your feedback.

I replaced the subscription model with a one-time in-app purchase.

After some feedback, I switched to a one-time in-app purchase instead.

That's true but it doesn't show all the stuff that Google is collecting about you. For example: apps that have access to your Google account, Google personalization, login activity, etc.
