Another recommendation for gtasks, best task app and widget I've seen yet
That does look rather nice! I am currently using this one:

But may switch over to gtasks soon.

i like tasks free the best. i tinhk i tried gtasks but prefered tasks free as it matches the style i have on go with the widget, and you can simply click each task and mark as complete. you may be able to do this on other programs but i serisouly can't think of anything else you can do to improve the basic program, it makes making tasks and editing them easy in just a few steps.
anyone else have problems with swiftkey freezing sometimes i think when using chrome but could also be when texting. it'll literally stop working, and then the program i was in will work but half the screen is missing as the keyboard will not reload. takes a restart to fix
also realplayer keeps freezing on me. i have to go to task manager and clear ram and the program toget it to work. this is only noticed when using bluetooth audio. very annoying when driving

Wtf... after the latest Whatsapp update, the (default) keyboard shrinks after typing the fist letter. And the goes back to normal size after using a full stop. Mad frustrating...
Haven't noticed it in any other apps yet so pretty sure its a Whatsapp thing!
On Gnex, JB.

Does anybody know of a good app that will allow my tablet to remote into my pc/laptop/nas??
Soldato
Does it allow syncronization across 2 google accounts so I can build a shared task list with the missus??

if you mean to give you kb/mouse use, unified remote is superb
Soldato
+1 for Unified Remote, although from his post, I think he wants Remote Desktop support... In that case, try SplashTop (seems to be half price at the minute too!)

I personally use JumpDesktop - allows RDC/VNC into any machine on the same network, and RDC/VNC into Windows/Mac machines that have the Jump software installed on them (uses Google to connect them all up)
Even works with iThingy's too
Anyone know a good app to test I/O performance of phone storage like below:

Google + / Dropbox for automatic picture uploads.
Most media players support streaming, I'd recommend BS Player.

An alternative to the dropbox approach. This app will let you directly sync a folder on the phone/pc to a folder on the pc/phone. I use it to sync my music from my computer to the phone once a day.

Is SplashTop HD the same thing?
Splashtop HD is the version aimed at tablets rather than phones.
