Well not exactly the camera, but the stock camera app of the Iphone Camu is now available for download on the Google Play Store.
I’m not an Iphone fan (maybe the opposite) But I have to admit that the Camera app is pretty quick, simple and sleek.
Also brings a variety of effect and edition options in real time, but is pretty good for just point and shoot.
The app itself claims it will turn your photos in something great! And it’ll probably be very useful for occasional photographers that are not familiar with pro photography
You’ll have live filters and even that Depth of field effect that only DSLR and some phone can give you.
In the video below you’ll almost all you can do within the app!
Aren’t you tired of “charging” your phone a few minutes on the go with a borrowed charger or a generic one and disconnecting it just to realize that only 2% or 5% is the difference?
Enter the Ampere app!
This app will let you know if the charger you’re using is the right one! Using the new Apis of Android 5 – Lollipop you now can see in “real-time” how many juice enter your phone.
This is particulary helpful if you’re in a hurry and will need your phone later.
Sometimes we just borrow a charger from a friend because all of them look the same to us, but in some cases the manufacturer of you firend’s phone use a different kind of charger than yours… And the result will only let you with a bitter taste.

The app is still new and is facing some bugs with ons or two lollipop phones, at the end of the app description you can read the complete list of compatible and not compatible devices
As we now enter an era where we spend more time on our mobile phones than our PC/Laptop we always need to keep watch on our battery,phones now are getting bigger and battery life is still an issue for some,power users of smartphones would be an example and its now fact people spend more time on their mobile device than ever..
Battery anxiety is one problem,there is many solutions though but there is times when these are not at hand,like portable charging units which can vary in price and size and of course either wireless charging options or the typical plug,in fact i was staying at a hotel a few weeks ago and i have multiple power banks and forgot one and had to ask at a hotel reception for a wall charger,these things happen and you can get caught out.
What is Discgo .
Running out of battery on your mobile phone.
It happens more often than we’d like it to and it happens when we need it most.
Responding to a need in today’s connected world, Discgo Charger is the first of its kind – a commercial portable mobile phone charger.
Designed specifically for high volume, commercial use, Discgo is a robust mobile phone charger that allows users the freedom to move around the venue or event while recharging. With Discgo, you don’t need to be plugged into a wall.
Discgo is the ultimate in customer service for exclusive venues that put customer-service first!
DiscGo Charger is a revolutionary mobile device charging system designed for use in venues such as hotels, bars, restaurants, airports etc. It offers a superior solution to traditional charging kiosks in that it allows patrons to charge and use their mobile device whilst keeping it with them. No longer do patrons need ask barmen to charge their phone, or lock their phones in a locker or stand at a kiosk.
The system consists of a Base Charger and 5 Discs. Each Disc is a mobile, compact device that can simultaneously charge up to 2 phones of any type. The Base is used to charge and monitor.
A truly portable charger, offering patrons mobility and convenience.
DiscGo Charger provides unparalleled convenience allowing patrons to charge their mobile phones anywhere they like. They simply request a Disc from the venue staff and take it with them to charge their device. The Disc is a compact, portable, battery powered device that charges a phone/tablet by a direct connection. Patrons, are free to use their phones and move about whilst charging. This convenience encourages patrons to stay a little longer, relax and buy a little more, instead of rushing home (or to their car) to charge their device. This is valuable for both patrons and venues.
Simultaneous Fast Charging of Multiple Devices
The DiscGo charger supports fast charging of a broad range of mobile devices from numerous vendors. All the major phone brands and mobile device types are supported including, media players, phones and tablets. Fast charging, allows patrons to charge their phone in the shortest time possible. This provides convenience to patrons and maximises the utility of Discs. Each Disc can charge up to 2 devices simultaneously and holds sufficient charge for 5 large phones. Patrons can charge their phone and also share their Disc with a friend!
Wireless Telemetry and Paging
The DiscGo Charger incorporates wireless connectivity which provides a range of useful features. The system allows Venues to wireless page a Disc by pressing a button on the charger. A paged Disc will flash and beep allowing Venues to locate the Disc. The system also displays the real-time operating status and charge level of each Disc in a venue. Combining wireless paging and charge status reporting allows venues to conveniently identify, characterise and locate Discs. It facilitates using a large number of Discs with a single base unit, which is efficient on space and cost.
Wireless Security
The DiscGo Charger provides an optional security feature whereby the Charger and/or Disc will alarm (beep and flash) whenever a Disc is outside of radio range for a period of time. This feature is intended to reduce the accidental (or intentional) removal of Discs from a Venue and reduces the loss of Discs. In addition, Discs have a feature whereby Charging is automatically disabled after a settable period of time. This feature prohibits the use of Discs without a Base, discourages theft and limits use. The only way to reset a Disc is by placing it on a Base.
Customisability and Branding
Each Disc has a clear plastic cover under which proprietary branding and advertising can be placed. This allows Venues to customise their Disc for their venue. The commercial value of being able to place advertising directly in-front of a patron can also not be understated. In addition, the illumination colour, brightness and audio options on a Disc are configurable to suite the mood of each venue.
What does it cost the consumer?
Usually the end user gets the service for free – the device is leased to the venue for a yearly rate, in return for a unique marketing tool enabling increased exposure, footfall, and adding that extra level of customer care!
We lease the device for a fee per month. (1 Pod and 5 discs allowing up to ten people charge at any given time.)
For a limited time period they are also offering an outright purchasing option.
Why should you use Discgo?
1. It charges the phone as fast as being plugged into the wall – 1% a minute
2. It has a dedicated App which alerts the customer when their battery gets to 30% and then tells them where the nearest Venue is. ( Increasing footfall and awareness.
3. It has been proven to increase revenue and increase customer satisfaction in a survey across our 400 Strong venues in Australia.
4. An International Company – operating in UK, Ireland, Australia, France, Japan, America.

The Zenwatch does sport some nice features but the price is rather high,not much more than the Moto360 which looks even better. But i do like the look of this and its one of the better looking watches out there today.
The Asus ZenWatch lets you wear your world on your wrist, synching with your Android smartphone or tablet so that you can access a wide range of great features to make life smoother, simpler and more fun.
It works with wearable-optimised version of exclusive Asus ZenUI apps like What’s Next and Do It Later. What’s Next reminds you of upcoming important events, marks items that need a special reminder and cuts out distractions so you can stay focused on what you really need to.

Voice and motion control
You’ll be able to operate your Asus ZenWatch using voice commands and gestures. Say “OK Google” and reply to texts, instant messages and emails by voice, saving you the need to constantly have your hands on your phone or tablet screen to type.
Find out about your day or the world around you by asking the ZenWatchquestions such as, “Will it rain this weekend?” and receive direct answers. By simply placing your hand over the face of the watch, you can mute incoming calls so that others around you aren’t disturbed.
