RUBBISH APP: Beer Clock Widget
Attention Homer Simpson, your ironic Android app has just hit the Market. Beer Clock Widget is a clock, shaped like beer. Presumably made in the hope that men who like drinking beer will (a) also like looking at poor graphic representations of beer bottles, and (b) soon buy an Android phone. Here’s the maker’s description: [...]
RUBBISH APP: TipRecorder
TipRecorder is another Android app that dispenses extremely basic life advice, like “Tie your shoelaces to avoid falling over” or “Breathing helps stop fainting attacks”, coupled with SICKENING honey-sweet positive enforcement messages for the STUPID. TipRecorder. This really, really DOES NOT BELONG on the Android OS in the year 2010. Just look at it. Seriously, [...]
RUBBISH APP: My Migraine Log
Now, we’re no doctors, but if you are susceptible to migraines we’d suspect one of the VERY LAST THINGS you ought to be doing is squinting at small text on a dark background via a tiny telephone screen, then trying to concentrate on converting your migraine history into an Excel file for emailing. Put the [...]
APPEAL: Will Michael Quach PLEASE stop making Android apps
There is a man called Michael Quach. He likes to make Android applications. We have featured some of his apps on the site before – and have not been very complimentary about them. Today alone, Michael Quach has released Brain & Nerves, Bones, Joints & Muscles and the ever-predictable USA Facts to the Android Market, [...]
RUBBISH APP: Where's My Car?
Here’s another ludicrous “car locator” app for people so stupid you’d be amazed they can master the art of operating a mobile phone, let alone controlling a motor vehicle at speeds of up to 70mph on a public highway. Where’s My Car is at least technically impressive, managing to incorporate a simple form of Android [...]
The worst Android Twitter Apps #5: Tweet Free (AKA Twit Free)
Another one for THE LIST OF SHAME. Tweet Free, which calls itself Twit Free once you’ve installed it on your Android phone, is a mess. Not only does it often use red text on a black background, it also regularly uses blue text on a black background. Using Tweet Free is like being warped back [...]
RUBBISH APP: Droid Pal (AKA Be My Friend II)
Droid Pal looks like it’s some sort of photo-rating and thinly-veiled sex-chat tool, aimed at IDIOTS. We refuse to believe that those girls in the pictures on the right are avid users of the Google Android operating system. A tenner says at least one of them has an LG Viewty in her handbag. Don’t want [...]
RUBBISH APP: Romantic Environment Tips
You have GOT to be joking. Has humanity has reached such a state of decay that we need a mobile phone application to tell us, in poorly-written TXT SPEAK, how to maintain relationships with members of the opposite sex? “These are tips for creating romantic environment in your life. Set up your world to encourage [...]
RUBBISH APP: Chicago Transit Tracker Lite
Honestly, who lives in Chicago? Anyone? Anyone at all? No, didn’t think so. We’d be surprised if Chicago even existed, which makes the need for an Android app to track Chicago’s bus times possibly even more pointless than the entire “Health” section of the Android Market. Next thing you’ll be telling us France is a [...]
RUBBISH APP: Happy New Year Ringtones
We have several amazing ideas for Android apps, ideas so amazing they would easily reach the “50-100″ downloads category. There would appear to be quite few developers out there with time to BURN, so we would very much like to hear from anyone able to make our dreams come true. In the meantime, let’s shake [...]
