Android had a lot of decent apps. None of which though was Apollo.

I'm out of the loop. What am I looking at?

Edit

So the original post has finally updated with an explanation. I'm an Android user so that icon doesn't mean anything to me.

I use Google (since it's caked into my phone), BBC Weather and Met Office.

They all report different things. I often try to go with the two that are closest. I've had it before though where two will say it's dry and Google said rain. I went with the two and it rained...

The 2nd gen Nexus 7 was the reason I left Apple hardware and to never return. I loved the iPhone but I got bored of them very quickly. I tried two Android phones and each time absolutely hated the experience and returned to the iPhone. I eventually picked up a Nexus 7 and wow it changed my perception. No bloat. Simple and fast. It felt like an iPhone where the software complimented the hardware. I switched to a Nexus 5 phone and have been with Google phones ever since.

I doubt there's been enough people moving to create an impact. I used to visit Reddit multiple times a day but now it's once a week if at all. When I have looked all my old subs look no different really.

Why not just keep the original one? There's no reason for people to keep the Reddit app installed anymore

What's the weather been like throughout July? We had a plesent June but July has been the worst.

It's 13°C here too right now topping out at 18°C today.

We were spoilt last year, the weather was very warm and space photos had the UK looking very brown for a change.

Meanwhile it's summer in the UK and we're off to a water park today and we're taking full wetsuits because it's so cold. July has been awful in the UK with so much rain.

That's a screenshot that makes me feel right at home.

I got the same watch last month, the non-s version though. I have always struggled to keep a watch on my wrist. With a phone I no longer needed to keep the time on my wrist. I did get a smart watch a few years ago but just couldn't get on with it. It ended up in the draw to never be used again.

Last month I started looking again and settled on the Instinct 2. Initially I wanted a colour screen but in reality I am actually very happy with the monochrome display. It's always on and has a long battery life. I'm actually really impressed with how good it is at tracking your health etc. I tracks all activities I do. It's quite granular too in that I can choose from road, mountain bike, gravel bike etc. It also records kayaking and standup paddle boarding.

At £200 it was one of the more reasonably priced smart watches. Certainly compared to the Fenix which is another £400 extra.

This is the same in Guild Wars 2. They make their money from the shop and by selling expansions.

The idea is everyone can reach the same statistics in terms of weapons, armour and build. It's skill that makes a player better than others. That's why I avoid PvP and WvW :D
