How to Obtain GPS Coordinates On Your Phone?

A common choice of coordinates is latitude, longitude and elevation. These values can be obtained by using Global Positioning System (GPS) on your phone.

One Touch Location is an android/iOS application which lets you to obtain GPS coordinates and address of your location. The accuracy of the values depends on the quality of the GPS receiver on your phone. Sources of error include signal arrival time measurements, numerical calculations, atmospheric effects, ephemeris, and clock data, multipath signals, and natural and artificial interference.

Aviate - An Intelligent Andoid Launcher Acquired by Yahoo for $80M

Aviate is an intelligent home screen replacement Android app which was recently acquired by Yahoo for $80M.

During CES 2014, Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer was on hand to deliver a keynote. During the keynote, she mentioned that Yahoo had just purchased a company called Aviate. That company makes software that replaces the standard home screen on Android devices.

Aviate automatically categorizes all of your apps, and intelligently rearranges your homescreen throughout the day to dynamically give you the apps and information you need most, at precisely the moment you need it.

Aviate uses a variety of factors, including the time of day and your location to determine what you’re likely doing, and provide the appropriate apps, buttons, and links for that moment. For example, when you wake up and unlock your phone, Aviate provides a widget filled with your next few appointments, the weather, and even an icon for Twitter, since you like to scan news headlines in the morning. On the way to work, Aviate pops up Waze, Pandora, and Gas Buddy. When you head out to lunch, your home screen adapts itself to the restaurant you’re in, providing photos and tips from Foursquare, as well as the option to check in. As you walk to your car after happy hour that evening, Aviate pops up quick links to get directions home and check on traffic. When you plug in your headphones for an evening walk, your music apps appear. And finally, as you slump into bed after a long day, your home screen includes a new "Set Alarm" button, and a link to your Kindle app.

 Now, Aviate is finally free for everyone to try on the Google Play store, and all it takes it to put in “YAHOO” when it asks you for a code.

In this Article, I'll be presenting thr Camera application of Moto X which is Clean, minimalist and easy to use.

The Original Camera of Moto X features Quick capture, Slow-motion mode, HDR, Photosphere, Panaroma and other standard features. One of the easy to use features of Moto X camera is you just have to tap anywhere on the screen to take a picture. A Geek would consider this feature as a gimmick but an ordinary user will really find this feature to be most useful.

Apple is known for its innovation. Apple recently announced iOS 7, its latest software which has been self proclaimed as world's most advanced mobile OS. But I don't agree with that because most of the features looks like they were ported from Android.

Control Center is one of the innovative features of iOS, though it feels like an Android phone notification it feels really Good. If you want this feature on your Android phone, you have to download this Android App called Control center developed by Hi Tools Studio.

The App also allows you to launch some apps like Camera, flashlight, calculator with simple touch. And you can also do all these things even on the lock screen.

Control Center for Android gives you iOS7 feel but it stills lacks iOS7 animations and music control support. But still its a wonderful application.
