Wake up to your favorite music with Radio Alarm Clock
The beloved Internet sentiment "the struggle is real" is very very real for people who have a hard time waking up in the mornings (or when they're supposed to). Countless social media posts have been written about the battle between sleepy person and their alarm clock. Numerous tips and tricks have been shared on how to beat it, live with it, obey it. A new app for Android devices will help you with this struggle by letting you wake up to your choice of sounds.
Radio Alarm Clock, as you may surmise from its name, is an app that promises to get you out of bed to the music or sounds that you actually like. Whether it is your favorite Internet radio station or actual mp3s from your smartphone, you will be serenaded by your favorite song or you can choose the most annoying music so that you'll get out of bed quicker just to kill your alarm. But if it is your favorite song or genre you're waking up to, with just one swipe, your phone can continue playing the music.
The app also has customizable smart motion controls. You can choose what it will do when you flip, shake or lift it. You can either snooze the alarm (which we all do A LOT admit it), dismiss it and wake up (or not), or just let it go to silent so your beauty sleep will not be disturbed (but sorry, you'll be late for work or school). The developer has also said this app was designed to be simple, minimalist and fast, with the function to just be a pleasant (or unpleasant, if that's what gets you out of bed) alarm clock.
There is a free version of Radio Alarm Clock on the Google Play Store, but of course it has limitations. However, the developer says it will always be ad-free (but it has no control over ads of some radio stations). If you want the full version, you just need to make a one-time in-app payment of $1.99. Thanks Michael for the tip!

Sony Folding@Home app now supports non-Xperia devices
Sony has had an app for a while now that users of Sony Xperia smartphones and tablets could use to support Folding@Home. That app lets users donate the processing power and WiFi connection at home during non-peak hours to help find cures for some of the diseases that people around the world suffer from.

The new update for the Sony Folding@Home app allows people using any Android device to donate processing power to search for cures. The updated app also allows users of devices of Sony and non-Sony flavors running Android 5.0 to participate.
The updates app from Sony is on Google Play right now for download. The app is in version 1.00.37 and the update landed on February 26. Android 4.4 and higher is supported.

Build and defend your Spartan city in new Android game
If you were one of the ten people who watched 300: Rise of An Empire or you still can't get over the first (and better?) film, then you will get to be one of the brave citizens of this ancient,historic Greek city, even if it's just on your smartphone or tablet. However, this is not just a "movie" to watch, but you need to be totally into strategic city-building games to fully appreciate the Age of Sparta, now available for Android devices.
The basic premise of the game is that you need to build and grow your own city, building various structures like monuments, research facilities, and whatever your city needs to prosper. You also need to build an army (this is Sparta after all), and depending on what your city is all about, there are different kinds of troops available, and there are even monsters and creatures since we're dealing with Greek mythology here. Your city "should rival Olympus", which of course will challenge the gods, but just honour them in their temples and they might even help you as you protect your citadel.
Aside from the city building aspect, you'll also get to engage in a battle featuring animated combat scenes. But with Zeus' thunder bolt and Hades' dark wrath, how can you lose? Well, first you need to get the gods on your side to ensure victory, although how you can do that exactly is not that clear from the description. But you can also ally with other players from around the world, and gang up on the enemy, whether it's Xerxes himself or other players bent on capturing your city and your troops.
Age of Sparta is available on the Google Play Store for free. But of course it will tempt you to make in-app purchases so your will better be strong against the forces of the credit card.
Sonic Runners is a side-scrolling version of the classic SEGA game
Sonic Runners will always remind me of my childhood when Super Sonic is the fastest and cutest hedgehog to grace the screen. This is a more modern version of the endless runner game with new mobile friend controls. To run, jump, and spin, you only need to tap on the screen to finish Sonic world in lightning speed. (Come to think of it, this was perhaps the inspiration for Temple Run.)
Sonic Runner features a new side-scrolling action designed by the original Sonic development team. TEAM SONIC has made another set of challenging and super-fast levels complete with the classic enemies, hidden rings, retro design, and loop-de-loops. As you play the game, you will called to unleash different color powers. To destroy obstacles, you need Asteroid Power. To be able to burrow underground, you need Drills, And for more hi-speed movements, you need Laser Power.
Play as Sonic or as his friends to unlock Tails and Kunckles as new characters. Power attributes, speed, and aerial techniques can be mastered by the hero. And to be more powerful, collect rings to evolve the powers of your character. There will be endless running but you need to complete each stage. You can run with the power of Companions to make sure you finish a level.
To make the Sonic Runner game more exciting, all-new ranking battles were added. You can reign supreme in these four ranking categories: Historical, World, Friend, and Rival League. Who knows, you can end up with a new "Sonic Record".

Joe Dever’s Lone Wolf RPG gamebook gets a complete edition
If you're tired of the fast-paced, high-octane action games on smartphones but aren't exactly willing to go over to the more laid back yet addictive, sometimes frustrating, casual games, then maybe it's time to give gamebooks a try. Fortunately for you, one of the more popular ones is landing with a bang. Although Joe Dever's Lone Wolf has actually been around for quite a while, even on Android, it is only now that it is coming in one complete package, and with a time-limited discount to boot.
For those not familiar with the genre, gamebooks are games that unfold in a Choose Your Own Adventure style of gameplay. Most of them resort to lots of text with a few added graphics, so yes, you will be reading a lot in this type of game. That, however, is where Lone Wolf differs. Although it still does employ text-based narratives, it makes heavy use of graphics. The user interface, for one, is laden with stylized medieval knobs and controls. Cutscenes are often animated. And the battles? Well they happen in almost turn-based full 3D style. The latter part might be a problem for some who've found Lone Wolf's implementation a tad unsatisfying.
As for the contents of the game itself, you take the role of the titular hero who is the last of an order of warrior monks tasked with protecting the land. Although the game does play out like a book, any one with experience in CYOA books will know there are multiple paths and multiple endings. And, like in any RPG, you can customize your character with various abilities (Kai disciplines) and items.
Joe Dever's Lone Wolf has been available on Android for some time now, but, while the first chapter of the game is free, the next three have to be purchased in-game. That is what this complete edition brings to the table. A full game, no in-app purchases required. This includes all four chapters of the game: Blood on the Snow, Forest Hunt, The Shianti Halls and Dawn over V'taag. Sadly, the game does have a rather hefty price tag of $9.99. And that's only for now, with a promo discount, so better grab it if it tickles your fancy.

Which App for iPhone Do You Wish Was on Android?
Only a few years ago, it was normal for a major app release to be available for iOS but come months later to Android. That seems to no longer be the case, as Android has advanced tremendously with Google putting a huge effort into its Play Store and ecosystem. However, while the majority of major app releases are now made available for both platforms at the same time, there are a few iOS exclusives that some of us wish were on our favorite mobile OS (Hyperlapse comes to mind). Let us know which apps for the iPhone you wish were on Android.
