Today, in Android´s Official Blog the new Google Play was announced.
A fresh new look for Google Play
Whether you’re in the mood to listen to Justin Timberlake’s new album, read Harlan Coben’s latest bestseller or discover a new game to play, you want the experience of finding and making your purchase to be quick and easy. Today we’ve started rolling out a redesigned Google Play store on Android phones and tablets that is simple, clean and — most importantly — helps you find great entertainment, fast.

The new design focuses on bigger images that jump off the page. Similarly themed content is grouped together so you can hone in on a magazine to read or an app to try. As you move down the page, new recommendations continue to appear so there is always more to see and explore. We’ve also simplified purchasing so you can breeze through checkout and get to enjoying your movie rental or other content.
The redesigned Google Play store app starts rolling out today for Android phones and tablets running Android 2.2 (Froyo) and above. People around the world should see it over the next few weeks. Get ready for a simpler Google Play.

The change in layout is looking good and the application is faster than the previous one.

Here it is .
Thanks phil. The app install fine and opens too. Unfortunately it needs a US credit card too, even during the 30 day free trial. Sadly it doesn't accept my international card.
Anyway, thanks for the help man.
hahah i was just about to create a thread about this app!
i downloaded it last night and played around with the free trial. i'm glad that there's finally a decent magazine reading app for the android that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
the only downside is that it was crashing a lot when downloading the magazines. once the magazine is downloaded though, the interface can rival the ipad's magazine reading apps with embedded video and what not. flipping pages can be a little bit smoother too, as large articles take about 2 seconds to load sometimes.
has anyone else given this a try?
Google Play is now saying it is incompatible with Transformer TF101. I find this really odd....
Yeah, for some reason the market won't let you download this if you're using certain devices (Transformer, Transformer Prime, etc). I contacted Next Issue about this and they sent me a real helpful link that has the actual apk available for download:
http://support.nextissue.com/Knowle...ported--how-do-i-get-next-issue-for-my-tablet
I know someone already posted the apk, but I figured this would be a link to the actual, legit source
fyi: the current apk can be download from their official site: http://support.nextissue.com/Knowledgebase/Article/View/166/
hi
nice thread
Guys,
Here is the Latest Google Music Player name as “Now Playing”. leaked beta version
After launching the Redesigned Google PLAY Store (v4.0+), Google now has planning to release brand new Music App which is named as “Now Playing”.
This with neat and simple user interface, this app actually will win your heart. This Now Playing app is still in the beta stages but the only unfortunate thing is that it still doesn’t have the access to Google Music Library and makes it the best 3rd party music player with simple minimalist and simplistic view.

This perfectly working on our GNote device. We can expect lots of improvement after official release..:good:
Hope you will really enjoy. Just thought to share with you guys
Will this work regardless of where you live or is it just for a few select markets/locations?
This isn't Google's work, and it's not the next Play Music app. Get your **** together. "Now Playing" is developed by Jack Underwood, and it's a themed version of Andrew Neal's Apollo player (the one that ships with Cyanogenmod CM10.1)
"i've recently started work on a Google-Now themed music player. It's orginally based on Apollo Source Code by Andrew Neal. It's got the stage where i'm happy to show it off and would love some constructive criticism and feedback."
Show some damn respect. You can find the Now Playing thread here .
^^^^This if anyone is interested in this app please follow the link that LordManhattan posted to actual developers xda page.

Google announced today that the Hangout app for Android and iOS will get a major update. It starts today with the Android, the version for iOS will follow later.
This update will be focused on "staying connected with friends and family", who then is the purpose of basic Hangouts and any messenger program.
We see point point what are the new notes, although Google says that there are others not announced, but find out only after trying the app:
Sticker : penguins, pirates, koalas and of course cats at will! 16 new sticker pack (and more coming), saying with images what words can not.
Filters for video calls : sepia, vignette, black and white and others. Just a swipe during a video call to try them all and make the conversation more original.
Last seen : the same way as WhatsApp, Hangouts will inform us of the last activity of our contacts
Smart suggestions during conversations : for example, if someone asks "where are you?", Hangouts will show an option to share our location on the fly.
And beyond that, of course, the graphics in Material Design .
At the moment we don't have the APK to share, and for now the Play Store does not give hints to update, but we will update this article when it becomes available the file to download. Bookmark this and Stay tuned!
Hi,
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I want to share some website & Android app I made.
Last year I thought about how it would be fun to just speak to my laptop/phone and get animations in return.
When I looked for such a website, I couldn't find it, so I made it myself:
voiceflick.com
I also made it into an Android app:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voiceflick.voiceflick
My nephews and nieces love it , I hope other people will also enjoy my website & app.
I made it just for fun, it has no ads, or anything else that will bring me profit.
The website only works on Google chrome, because it uses Chrome's built in speech recognition.
This was the first time I ever made an Android app, so there might be some bugs
If something doesn't work, please let me know, and I will look into fixing it
All feedback is welcome.
I hope you will have fun with it

More info about the app:
To save battery, VoiceFlick only records while you hold the mic-button.
All returned animations are appropriate for all ages.
The animations are rated G: General Audiences – all ages admitted.
VoiceFlick uses Google App for speech recognition.
So if something doesn't work, please check if Google App is installed and working:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
The voice records are not send to VoiceFlick, it is processed by Google App, (Google App can be configured to use offline speech recognition).
