Yesterday was Apple’s annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC). At WWDC 2014, Apple announced iOS 8 and a new Mac operating system called Mac OS Yosemite. But I’m not here to talk about either of those things: I’m here to talk about what Apple CEO Tim Cook said about Android and its users because it’s actually pretty funny. Over the course of his speech, Tim Cook repeatedly slammed Android and worked the crowd into a frenzy feeding off their pro-Apple fervor. Cook,…
South Koreans love their Samsung devices. Samsung has traditionally enjoyed major domination over its local marketplace. However, something very surprising happened last week in South Korea. The Galaxy S5 – which has sold at record numbers since its launch – was outsold by another device – the LG G3. The LG G3 is reportedly clearing an unprecedented 25,000 to 30,000 units per day. To put that number into perspective, the Galaxy S5 has sold approximately 8,000 units per day since…

They essentially allow you to be on top of all your important personal and work commitments at the touch of a button no matter where you go. Enter Uber – a one-of-a-kind travel app for the Android platform that enables you to communicate with the outdoor world but that’s…
Android own checklist for you: Todoist Lists. We all make them and use them to remind ourselves so that we don’t forget things, and yet we often end up forgetting them all when we lose track of the list itself. Today, we are fortunate enough to live in the smartphone generation where apps on our devices allow us to do so at our convenience and make sure we don’t forget a thing. Todoist happens to be the perfect cure for forgetful folks to help them get their priorities and chores…
It’s imperative. The right sleep, the right wake up time to be in at work, school/college, the right time to sleep so that you don’t wake up early, and if all fails then your Android phone that will help you steer your way out of slumber and out of your bed over to the place you need to go. Over and above that, here’s a wonderful Android app that tells you not only how soundly you slept (when you did that is), but also helps you wake up with an integrated alarm, and to top that off…
We’ve extensively covered patent wars at OneClickRoot because, let’s face it, patents are a huge issue affecting Android today. While companies like Google and Samsung have formed patent truces – allowing free use of one another’s patents – companies like Apple have continued to engage in costly legal battles over silly patents – like slide to unlock. When most people read about patents, they think it doesn’t affect them. Who cares if a couple of multi-billion dollar…
Here’s to one of the most annoying yet captivatingly addictive games to hit the Playstore – Flappy Bird. With hundreds of its variations swarming Google Play Store, the original Tappy Chicken you may think is just another emulation of the game but it’s actually really not. What you may think of as an extremely well-programmed game is actually a back end powered tool that allows non-developers to create games that will look just like those programmed on Java or HTML 5 or C++. It captures…

Google’s IO 2014 Conference will start on June 25 at 9am PST. IO 2014 is Google’s biggest keynote address of the year. Google has previously used the event to reveal Android 4.1, the Nexus 7, Project Glass, and other flagship products. Last year’s IO Conference was relatively boring. Google’s keynote address focused mainly on app updates for services like Google Play Music and Google Play Games. This year, things are expected to be different. Google has been suspiciously quiet…
