Automatically Start Apps When you Plugin Charger or Headset In Android

Posted: 13 Oct 2012 04:00 AM PDT


Here, are detailed steps to access apps via phone accessories on Android. We normally connect accessories on Android phone to perform multiple functions like listening to music or charging the phone. Sometimes it happens, that we want our Android phone to launch an app automatically when we connect our Android phone with some accessories like headphone or charger.

For e.g., normally if we connect any headset with Android phone, we mean to listen to music on our Android phone. For listening to music, we manually have to launch music player app on our Android phone. Now what, if your music player app launches automatically when you connect a headset to your Android phone? This seems to be a nice idea as your smart phone starts working more smartly when it launches app automatically on connecting the phone via any accessories. So just follow the below steps to access apps automatically via phone accessories on Android.

Some of the good things to do with this app would be to launch a music player automatically when you plugin your headphone, or launch Skype or other chat client when you plugin headphone. I am not sure which app would I like to launch when charger is plugged in (may be some app with sooth sleeping music, as I plugin the charger normally during night?).

Steps To Access Apps Automatically Via Phone Accessories On Android:

Step 1: Use Barcode Scanner app to scan QR code below and download the app that we will use for this tutorial.

Live Manager QR Code

Step 3: If you don't have a Barcode Scanner app, then search for "LiveWare Manager" app in Google Play Store.

Step 4: Install "LiveWare Manager" app on your Android phone.

Step 5: Launch the app on your Android phone to customize the settings of the app.

Step 6: Select the accessory type on which you want the app to launch on your Android when that accessory is connected to your Android.

LiveWare Manager

Step 7: Now enable the app which you want to launch automatically when you connect the accessory (headphone, headset or charger) to your Android phone.

LiveWare Manager App

Step 8: Check mark on enable/disable app launch option.

Live Manager option

Step 9: Now whenever you connect the accessory to your Android phone, LiveWare Manager forces your Android phone to automatically launch the app selected on your Android phone.

Live Manager really works very smartly on your Android phone. Also, the app gives you notification for each app launched automatically on your Android phone. The app interface is easy and simple to manage on Android. So just get ready to manage your apps via accessories on Android.

What are FPS Games?

When I was a beginner to games, I started with racing games and adventure games. I am a pro in Need For Speed particularly and defeated players at college level. Suddenly a guy comes to me challenging to play Counter Strike with him. I have heard of this game very much, but I have never tried it. But in that situation I have to prove that I'm a gamer, so I accepted the challenge. I don't even know the controls, so I learned them for the time being. But no wonder I lost the match and had to accept defeat. Then I started playing many FPS Games and had to learn all by myself. But here is a gift to all FPS Beginners, I found this website which is very interesting. It trains you on How to play FPS games. So, here's your chance to be a pro in FPS Games.

FPS means First Person Shooter games. All famous FPS Games have online versions where you play online on a supported browser or with a separate setup on your computer. You can also play with computer players as your opposite team. Some of the FPS Games which I have reviewed earlier include: Red Eclipse and Prism.

You just need to visit the website and it requests you to install a small software called Unity Web Player.

Unsubscribe Emails That Are Unwanted Using Swizzle

Posted: 12 Oct 2012 11:00 AM PDT


Swizzle is a free online service to unsubscribe emails that are commercial and obviously unwanted, from your email account. This online service to unsubscribe emails that are unwanted works best with Gmail. Swizzle also delivers support for other online email services as well.

While browsing internet, many of us subscribe online newsletters. Then comes a time when the inbox appears overcrowded with those; hiding important mails and messages. You may manually mark a few as spam or delete them. Still, you will not be able to wipe out all of the dirt. If you are facing such situation then Swizzle is the online application which might help you in gaining a cleaner and organized mailbox. You may also check out Unsubscribe.com reviewed by us.

 

swizzle-unsubscribe emails

In the process, Swizzle online application to unsubscribe emails asks for your email and access to your account. Swizzle claims not to store or share your username & password.

How To Unsubscribe Emails that are Unwanted Using Swizzle:

The procedure for unsubscribing unwanted emails has been explained below:

  • On the homepage, you will find a textbox for entering email address. Type you email address and hit the ‘Go’ button.
  • If it's a Gmail address then you will be redirected to the authorization page where Swizzle will request access to your emails. To continue, you need to grant requested permissions by clicking on 'allow' button. In case, if you provided a non-Google address then, you'll be taken to a new page asking to login by providing your original credentials.
  • Once you have completed the step above; Swizzle email unsubscribe will start fetching your emails and begin sorting them as per its algorithm.
    swizzle-gmail-cleaner
  • After some time the list of Spam-senders will be presented to you. Against every entry you will find two associated buttons stating '- Unsubscribe Me' and '+ Move to Digest'.
    swizzle-email-overload
  •  You can click on '- Unsubscribe Me' button to unsubscribe emails that are unwanted.

If you moved an item to digest list by clicking on ‘+ Move to Digest’.  Then you will start receiving daily Swizzle digest email containing the email messages from brands you like. It contains only the messages from the brands you select, and helps keep your inbox clean by putting them all together into one email.

* As per my view Gmail authorization is a simpler and safer mode for using Swizzle.

* Swizzle online application can help you to unsubscribe unwanted email on most of the online email service providers, but not all.

The Final verdict:

I have no issues in recommending Swizzle as an online application to unsubscribe emails that are unwanted in your Gmail. The filtering capabilities of the application is good, but not perfect. Swizzle supports more features than unroll.me online application for unsubscribing over Gmail.

* It is normal to receive newsletters up to 10 days after unsubscribing. If the sender continues then mark those email as spam.

Try out some similar services reviewed by us like: JetVideo, VIP Rumor, & Dajukebox.

As you can see from the screenshot above, interface of Fireburst Videos App is very simple, there aren’t any kind of menus, or any directional button that you could use when navigating video websites. The only thing that’s present at the top of the application are the tabs for browsing through the five different video sharing websites where you can search and watch videos. Supported websites are:

  • Youtube
  • Hulu
  • Bing Videos
  • Neflix
  • Vimeo

Some of them are only available in the US, Hulu and Netflix for example, but others can be accessed by the large majority of the world, although there are some restrictions when it comes to YouTube access in some countries, that’s not a Fireburst Videos App problem, because it can be used just fine to search and view videos when there aren’t any kind of restrictions.

You can then select the country of your choice and the radio app provides the radio station accordingly. Unlike "Radio Player Live" app, you don't need any Window media player plugin to install on Chrome browser. The online service provides its own music player to play Radio stations. Apart from this, you can also register with the online radio service and add radio channels in your favorites to play it at any point of time.
