Handling Finances Through iOS and Android Applications

princess — Mon, 07 May 2012 01:13:20 +0000

Other than the apps for graphics, media players and enterprises, Android and iOs apps also provide its users a wide range of services for financial management tips. This just shows that both apps understand the need to help the user keep atop of his cash flows and record all his important incoming and outgoing transactions.

The first apps available for the users through both iOs and Android is Mint.com Personal Finance. This application enables users to use their mobile devices in supervising control over their finances simply because it gives them the chance to check more than their savings, but as well as credit and debit cards and even retirement plans, create manual transactions to help them stay on top of things. To top things all, this application software does not require payment services because it’s for free. Users need not worry about their account details being stolen because the application has a unique 4 digit PIN requirement before other people can access the users’ accounts.

The second apps for financial management is My Finances for iOS devices. Here, users can record their incomes and spending in charts. Its interface is user friendly and can give a monthly overview of all the financial layout. My Finances also has customizable icons for different expense categories and automatically records data by categories too. The application provides back up and restore functions. It also has password protection. Users however have to pay for the apps for $1.99/£1.49, but this is really cheap compared to the advantages it can bring its users.

The third and fourth apps available in Android that are for free are Personal ledger and MoneyWise. Personal ledger can allows users to have a daily track over their monies. Similarly with Mint.Com Personal Finance, this Apps has a PIN and password protection. But this just limits users to editing, logging, saving and viewing their transactions. MoneyWise on the other hand is an electronic checkbook. This enables users to check their expenses every day.

The last apps in this list is a free application for iOs devices, the Budget Tool. The apps does not only allow users to keep track of finances but also gives tips on spending and saving money.

There are more apps that can even allow the user to export spreadsheets via email. These are available in any App Store.

No Worthy Contender for Apple’s iPad Devices

princess — Sun, 06 May 2012 01:11:07 +0000

Rumors are flying around regarding the release of a new iPad – the iPad 3. There have been alleged reports that the iPad 3 will be released in the last months of the year and that the new device will be completely different in its design from the first two iPad tablets, making the supposed product’s price quite more expensive than the latest iPad from Apple.

Apple however disputes the ideas believing that iPad 2, which has been released early this year, is still the lead tablet device in the technology market. Given this, there is no rush then regarding the launching of a new iPad tablet, not until 2012 anyway.

Mark Moskowitz, an analyst from JP Morgan claimed that he had consulted with different industry sources and they have informed him that the device really will only be making an appearance well into next year still. Moskowitz said too that other tablet PC producers like RIM and Motorola have failed in toppling over iPad 2’s crown and the next to fail might be SONY itself with its newly released tablet PCs. He further said not only is the Sony tablet not as refined as the iPad but that the Android OS of the tablet has not been appropriately adapted for the tablet from its’ original format for smartphones. The only tablet so far that is probably considered to rival the iPads is the one made by Amazon. This still has to be seen first though as Amazon has not released the device yet.

iPad 2 is said to have garnered higher market shares from Android devices during this year’s second quarter. Now Apple’s market share is larger at 68.3% than Android’s 26.8%. If such is the case then clearly, Apple sets the benchmark for all tablet devices. Perhaps it might take several more attempts from other PC companies to create something that will take away the golden spoon from Apple’s mouth.

There is no doubt why there have been several reports about PC tablet manufacturers stopping their production of such devices or considering lower prices for their devices than the iPads. Who would want to compete when Apple has a very strong reputation of dominating the whole technology market with the iPad devices? Even most of the tech reports you’ll read online are about Apple.

Android Rises, Apple Rises

princess — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 00:31:49 +0000

There’s only one thing you can rely of and that is survey, although it is not 100 percent applicable but if you rate in the lowest rank, you should starting to worry. Everybody is waiting for the next survey on who are the leading brands or products the certain market. Everybody love and see the result in the survey, although the conclusion is based on their perspectives and to their few participants in the survey. In the latest conduct in the market, Android phones are now leading in the market which is the reason why others fall and stay put. Some phone was able to manage even though the Android phones are rising up. Apple managed to hold about 28 percent in the market, thanks to their iPone even if the operating system of iPhone is 3 months late.

In the recent survey conducted by Nielsen, about 43 percent of those asked in the survey said that they owned an Android, comparing to the 28 percent of those aseked who have said that they owned iPhone. In this scenario it is quite unease in part of apple because they have poor survey in the market. According to AppleInsider, “the former also increased in market share in the past three months, a factor of the late arrival of Apple’s new smartphone. We shouldn’t start to think that the iPhone is dead and buried; once the iPhone 5 and iOS 5 is released things should change in Apple’s favor very quickly.”

The new fifth-generation of iPhone aside of its being a smartphone it could now come with LTE. Soon iPhone 5 and iOS will bring out the history but Apple needs also to consider that people will buy in much affordable price. This is the only way if Apple wants to compete with Adroid. As Android rises up, Apple rises also. In the report on AppleInsider, “there are more than prepaid customers, which is still untouched by Apple – how can they allow all that potential to just slip through their fingers?” the clash between Android phones and Apple starts and who will win the market competition?

The $35 Tablet: The World’s Cheapest Tablet

princess — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 11:37:05 +0000

India is the home where you buy affordable cars. India has developed a car that runs by Air Compressor. This car is also known as the Air Car. It’s nothing to do with Apple MacBook Air; it’s just brilliant innovation with a cheap price. Speaking of innovation, India shocked the world when they are holding the title of “the cheapest” Android tablet in the world. For only $35 you can buy the Android tablet. It is cheap because they are aiming students and school children.
I hope that the 35 dollars worth of tablet is not a scheme, because the people in India majority of its people are poor. It is nice to know that the British company initiated this cheap tablet with the support of Indian Government and brought it to the hands of its people for the advancement of its literacy.

This Cheap Android Tablet is also known as Aakash. The meaning of this is sky in Urdu. This has been developed by Datawind a small British company. The operating system of Aakash is Google’s operating system. The awesome part is that it is subsidised by the Indian Government. The company will produce 100,000 tablets for the students and school children. After producing thousands of tablets the company will manufacture millions of Android tablets. The Government and the Company are testing the water, if the water is clear then that’s the time they will produce more tablets. Since Indian Government is collaborating to the British company to increase the internet users in their country, is the Indian Government also subsidising the social services of their people as well as their educational system?

India has a 1.2 billion population and the company will increase eight percent internet access because the assembly of the device of will be in India. The telecoms and education minister Kapil Sibal said that the $35 tablet will soon be made available for school children and students. The purpose of this project is to enhance the learning skill of their school children. This is the revolution in tablets. India is making possible to their students and school children. This trend is more likely to One Laptop Per Child scheme. The question is do they have the same features as Apple and many great names tablet manufacturer?

Which Among Android Phones is the Best?

princess — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 11:23:00 +0000

Finding the best android is really tough. There are many branded phones that are now on competition on which have the best smartphone in the history of mobile phones. All of the smartphones are unique however it may varies somehow in there screen size, software features, processor power and of course the design.
I would like to help you in finding the best android phone for you, and of course this would be the highest rated phone in terms of performance and the potential of the phone.
Here are the Androids:
Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini
It comes in a miniature pack up but has authority to spare. Lovely little phone, assuming you can keep up with it. The Sony Ericsson Xperia mini is a full-fledged smartphone and you’ll need to be at ease with its multiple identities. But it’s not moping around wondering “Who will I be today?” With a friendly face like this, all the horsepower seems so much easier to handle.
Motorola Atrix
This smartphone has the capacity to compete in the Android competition due to its high res screen, unique fingerprint scanner, great battery life and comfortable form factor, though is let down by a mediocre camera, some unnecessary interface tweaks and limited video support. Add in its dock accessories, though, and it shines out brightly. There is something undeniably cool about having one device perform so many of your daily functions. Unfortunately these docks don’t come for free and the lapdock in particular simply can’t compete for functionality with a laptop, netbook or even tablet.
LG Optimus Black
Well designed and light, and has a number of cool features, plus a decent camera, I would definitely recommend you take a look at the LG Optimus Black if you are in the market for a new smartphone.
HTC ChaCha
The HTC ChaCha isn’t your state-of-the-art Android phone in terms of specifications, guess what? It’s enough for the needs of the typical user in the target audience. The phone delivers solid performance even though occasionally you’ll have to wait a second or two.
Google Nexus S
The Nexus S is also loaded with sensors, both the now conventional, like proximity and GPS, but also three-axis gyroscopic sensors. This means the phone has a better sense of how it is moving, which could be a real boon to games developers, something that seems to have been a considered focus in Android 2.3. Google, it seems, wants to follow the iPhone’s success in mobile gaming.

Android ToughBook – What You Must Know

Admin — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 22:48:12 +0000

Here is what you need to know about Android ToughBook

New Tablet Perspective: Toughness:

There must be something about thin tablets, given that they lead the market when it comes to devices and pcs, but perhaps the public and techno fans have take it for granted that other than the thinness, tablet durability might also be one factor to consider when buying tablets. Fortunately, not all tablet, desktop and mobile devices manufacturer concern themselves with the idea that thin is totally in.

Panasonic has decided to come up with a ruggedized Android tablet. Panasonic is known for its Toughbook notebooks, so it isn’t really surprising if the company has designed a touch shock resistant tablet.

The new design is deemed to be launched in 2012, and the target market for the product is not the same market that has popularized Android Honeycomb contingents like Samsung, Asus, Acer, Motorela, Toshiba and Sony. The target population then are people who may possibly give their tablets a rough environment, like those who are often outdoors and exploring.

This is of course good because the conventional market will probably turn a thumbs down to the tablet because they value thinness more.

The new Tough tablet, with a codename of CM111, is 10.1 inch with silver chassis, a number of hardware buttons upfront and wrapped with rubberised grip in the sides. It may not be as thin as the svelte and elegant iPad and Galaxy Tab 10.1 but the new unit is further designed to have a multi-touch matte-style display, one that’s good for viewing things under strong sunlight. It is also modelled to support stylus input but its 3G connectivity is optional.

So how tough is the new Toughbook tablet? CM111 will be definitely temperature tested, whether it can endure an 200 degree C oven heat atmosphere or it can outstand a cold dip in a -85 degree C water bath.

Another temperature test that will be run on the unit is whether it can also survive quick temperature changing environment. Other tests like spraying the tablet continuously with water while it’s turned on, and dropping it from a 120 cm height on slabs of concrete and wood will also be done on the tough tablet. All these procedures are actually the qualifying processes for all Panasonic Toughbook notebooks, thus, it is just logical that the same will be given to the tablet as well.

If CM111 will get through all these tests, then welcome launch for the product should be already organized as early as now.

CyanogenMod 7 for Android: Better Running in Touch-screens

Admin — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 00:42:13 +0000

Many of us are disappointed with HP’s announcement on the discontinuation of the production of devices that runs with webOS.

After a week, the confirmation of Choi Gee Sung, Samsung’s CEO adds up to this disappointment by putting to rest the speculations of webOS deal. Although this rather sounds frustrating, the team at CM provides us with better solution.

With the straight to the point cut, CyanogenMod 7 for Android suggests that it will run better for your stagnant Touchpad.

Apparently, this platform will provide a more functional Wifi access, faster audio and operational accelerometer with easy access to Android Market.

However, the code is yet to be revealed by the team as they are currently configuring the Hamsterdance effect. In that case, we have to wait and hope for a faster development.

Meanwhile, there is a plan for webOS to receive split global business units.

Apparently, the two units specifically webOS software will be moved to the Office of Strategy and Technology, whereas the hardware division will go to the Personal Systems Group. The splitting of webOS units is viewed to optimize their technology.

But there is another hint that webOS will remain as the major platform for the HP Company.

Whether what move HP is going to make, we are petty sure that they are going to make the best move for their company.

But as a consumer, we can’t close our eyes to the other options offered by other developers. In this crucial moment, only one virtue will stand, it’s either loyalty or practicality.

Android Apps To Get Priority Over iOS Apps in Google+ ?

Admin — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 01:00:24 +0000

The Google+ app button has created a stir for Android fans. The app is very impressive as it is hitting the benchmarks for clicks over the other social networking apps.

Although it is admittedly thought that this will be too early for Google to venture into its very own social network, it seems that there is already a stemming problem for iOS based devices.

This is for the reason that currently no apps for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch are available. It means that the user experience and special notifications will be limited for the user of the said devices.

If the current status will remain for a long time, then it will give us enough reason to suspect that Google might have plans to overtake the big social networking sites (Twitter and Facebook) by giving exclusive features for Android apps.

By then, we can note that iOS apps might lose their popularity.

On the other hand, we still do have the benefit of the doubt. This recent issue can be either caused by the delay of approving the app on the side of Apple or Google has not yet submitted an app to the app store.

In any of these cases, we can say that it would be a cunning strategy for Google to promote Android.

In addition, the swarming products and services of Google are already dominating that can lead us to think that this might mark the fall of iOS and the rise for Android. Hopefully, Google will not be this cruel.

Do you think Google will give priority to Android apps than IOS apps?

iPhone 5, iCloud and iOS 5: Will Android Mobile OS Be Left Behind?

Admin — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 00:28:26 +0000

iPhone 5, iCloud and iOS 5 VS Android:

In the recent quarter of this year, it was viewed that the sales of Android Mobile OS is slogging.

According to the recorded statistics of ChangeWave survey, it shows that only 32% of the consumers are planning to buy the Android OS (Google) devices in the next 90 days, while a larger 46% are planning to buy the iOS (Apple) devices and a far behind 4% for Blackberry OS (RIM) devices.

It can be noted that in terms of market share, Android Mobile OS devices seem to be dominant, however due to the upcoming iPhone 5, the iCloud service and iOS 5 the dominant standing of Android OS is currently destabilizing by ranking only next to iOS in the said survey.

Apparently, these results are direct effects of the consumer’s continuing demands on smartphones and mobile OS as well.

Considering the anticipation of the people for the release of Apple’s 5th generation iPhone, the upcoming service of iCloud and iOS 5 and their claimed satisfaction to Windows 7, we can almost say that there’s no greater and better than the service we can get with Apple.

Add to that is the increasing popularity of Apple that helps in utilizing its dominance are already a crystal-clear factor for both consumers and their rivals.

In my own view, it’s quite normal to see Android Mobile OS struggling at this point against iOS because the market as always is an arena of challenges where everyone is taught to compete with each other as hard as they can, in order to improve.

For now, we have seen that Apple is just right in applying the formula to success.

So, which smartphones are you going to buy, iOS, Android or Blackberry?
