They are not. The screenshot was not at all related to Instagram btw. Saw the same thing on twitter, that's probably something specific to apple users.
But thanks for trying to help rootSU, not like the other ..

Its called "emoji"

emoji can look like this ? They are not "plain" like smileys ?

I think it's called EMOJI. You can have it if you install GO Keyboard, Kii Keyboard or iPhone Emoji Keyboard from Playstore.
Hope this helps!:good:

Yes its an Apple specific thing. That's how the emojies are read on android.

I have a question!

Hey guys,
I was wondering if there's an app that...if we scan a sentence on a newspaper etc..through some kind of app and it types by itself..!? If you guys know it please share it with me. ! Thank you!

Ooh that's a great idea and I'm sure someone's tried it. But there are over 200 000 apps and I don't recall ever seeing something quite like it.
There are apps that will type when you talk! And QR scanning apps. Look @ Google for something like the one you want. I'd imagine it would have something to do with the word "scan"

Android Market Apps Gone?

Since the Last Two Market Updates, has anyone noticed that there's a Limited amount of Apps that get Shown when Typing in the SearchBox... Even though its says that there's about 3000+ apps to choose from!
For Instance I Typed "ROOT" as my selected word to search, and with the Old Market there would be Dozens to look through, but Now its Definitely a Shortened List...
Anyone Experience this?

The first couple of searches that i did only showed like 4 apps and I was confused. But, just click the number of results found in the upper right hand corner and BAM, the rest of the list of apps show up. I don't see how this doesn't work for some of you. Video your Market search and post it here to show us what you're doing

I flashed a nandroid back to 2.3.3 stock from cleanrom just to use the old market for the bill to my account option, could of been a result from cleanrom, could be my noob status(learning new stuff daily thanks to xda) however either way it goes the old market rocks, and Google only reveals failed attempts at making the old market stick when trying to revert from the new one, the apps suggested above are the best bet at using old market. The new market seems to be a step backwards

Oh don't get me wrong, it's still an amusing app. It's new and a beta release. There's room for improvement. Like if I type a celebrities name, I want to see the celebs Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Not just what people are tweeting and hash tagging about the celeb. It's basically displaying Google results in app format. I'd like it much more of it was a widget instead of home launcher. At least I can keep it as an app.

We try to focus on perfecting the mobile app, I guess going out of beta will be a good start. Tablets will have their turn, we defiantly have them in mind.
Im with dparrot , I really like this , ive been using holo for along time and this is real similiar but has many added cool features ( im probably a lil younger than Parrot though [51] so i can handle it)!!!
NVM. I figured it out
Thanks Dparrot. Here's a link for anyone who had trouble finding it, like me. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...er&referrer=utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=new Weird that it doesn't show up in the search results.

If you type it out as everything.me, it will show up in the search bar where you can then click on it in the app store. But you are right, even searching for it correctly it won't show up in the list of apps. My guess would be because it is in beta. I believe the app store recently opened itself to beta apps, but they may be stored separately.
They are now available in parts of Europe.

You are incorrect! It works flawlessly for me on the stock 4.1.2 release.

[Question] iLauncher developer dissapeared?

Yo, im using ilauncher (i know stupid to use it on android) but today all creators apps (ilauncher, inoty, ilocker) disappeared from google play and so his facebook account...Anybody have some intel on this? He quit or something?
Thnx for info and sorry if the thread is wrongly placed.
At a guess, apple probably complained.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4
Does this mean it's safe to share the app now?
Before anyone gets their panties in a bunch, I'm a paid customer of both iLauncher and iLocker, so I'd be sharing something I bought and paid for myself.

i have file apk ilauncher and ionty
I don't think so, probably the dev's preparing for a big update. Yesterday, these 3 apps didn't appeared in playstore search but if you had the link to them, they were there, with 7 october updates. Then, they dissapeared. If it was Apple complain, probably the dev announced on his facebook page so the fans would know.
That's what I think at first but why anyone pull of all his apps and make facebook page inactive just to make update? Without facebook page people know nothing what's happening.
Sent from my HUAWEI U9508 using xda premium
I am really mad because of this, I am a fan of iLauncher/iNoty/iLocker and the dev promised a lot of great features in the future versions. I hope everything is ok and he will be back in playstore
You're not alone. I'm very mad too...
If you're paid, and if he remove apps for update and publish new, you're must buy these apps again...

I've bought iLauncher and iNoty a week ago and I like them so much. I read his facebook page telling people what he had planned to improve his apps and I was so excited. +1 about being mad

Have any of you managed to replace the status bar of inoty also in the lockscreen?
Actually in the play store, the developer hasn't disappeared. But the apps (the ios-like ones) have disappeared. If you search Suckagomi in the play store he still has one app called icon 7 which is an old app but is still there...

He has probably been forced to remove the apps from the PlayStore because I saw an other iOS 7 Launcher, and the developer mentioned that Google sent him an e-mail saying that he had to modify his app and make it less iOS7 or they'll have to remove it...

Well if it's really happened like this, the developer should inform about this instead of totally disappearing from Facebook and not responding to emails. All his apps are paid so there should be some sort of manners to paying customers...

I suggest everyone tries this app!

I'm all about customizing my phone with random little apps. This one I found last night is called "Hello", and it is a very simple yet extremely elegant sms app. Everything is sorted in to tabs, and the coolest feature I've found so far is when you click on a picture that was sent to you through texts, it pulls up all the other pictures in that particular thread so you can quickly save them all instead of doing it one by one.
Just thought I would let you guys in on this little gem I found! Hope you guys give it shot!
Hi Anthony,
Thanks for the heads up, that is a nice app!

If you like this you should check out EvolveSMS. Some of the same type stuff and you can download themes for it. I'm been using it for a while now and I love it.

Hello is really nice but on every device i have it seems to stutter eveytime i open it. If you turn on the beta access , you can send these little gifs cut out in a speech bubble. Pretty cool haha. I got all my android friends use it now, i just wish it would launch faster

No problem! My all doesn't seem to stutter when I launch it.... I wonder why yours does.
I think the biggest thing I like about this app is the fact that you can't bog it down with themes. Just personal preference though lol.

my message+ app got sent to the freezer for conspiracy to slow my phone with all my other big red apps. They are now serving a 2year+ sentence with a $360 fine if they return earlier.
I like Hello, but it would send pictures as links to recipients instead of the actual pictures. I found that several people wouldn't open them. I is probably better to send them as links that people can click on and then view them, because they would come out in higher quality. But if people don't click on them, it defeats the purpose. I also didn't like how it put an advertisement for their app on each picture it sent links for.

Haha. I don't keep message + on the phone...but will install it and backup when swapping Roms on my S4. It is handy to work across devices.....but Hangouts is my go to messenger since my ios contacts are slowly converting to it from apples proprietary junk. Switched to hangouts when they added custom ringtones.

Evolve is excellent. Made me ditch 8sms, which I never thought would happen. Straightforward, with nice enough bells and whistles that aren't obnoxious.
I am getting tired of go sms, but I need sms pop ups. What is a good alternative?
