redcalcium , in Navigation without mashing CPU?

That doesn’t sound normal. I’m using a phone with much slower processors than yours and Google Maps doesn’t slow the phone down when navigating.

One thing to check is if your phone is overheating during navigating? Putting the phone near the windshield where it’s getting roasted by the sun while running demanding application such as Google Maps navigation might cause your phone’s temperature to spike beyond normal operating range, which cause it to throttle the CPU in order to reduce heat. If your phone is hot, try to put it in front of an AC vent or shaded area in your car.

Ritz_Are_The_Shitz , in How does everyone feel about Sony (+Ericsson) Phones?

I have a 5ii and had a Z5 in the past. I’ll probably buy a 5v in the near future. Sony has a unique mix of hardware features (headphone jack, removable storage, front facing speakers, capacitive fingerprint scanner, no holepunch) and a near-stock implementation of android that only LG rivaled. I love their industrial design and form factor.

It’s kind of sad that having a good set of what should be standard features is so unique now.

gfdoto , in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

Reddit user for over 10 years, here for good. I was a long time Sync user and at some point I switched to Boost and I’m not sure why because I also purchased Sync Pro at some point. My two favorite Android apps being developed to work with Lemmy made me create a new account here and I’m looking forward to seeing where this goes.

Let’s go!!!

Devgard , in Pls Help me decide on the most cost effective phone when my biggest deciding factor is a nice camera but I'm not paying $800 for a dang phone

Gonna agree with the others, if you want really good cameras, get the Pixel.

Markiboj97 ,

Yeah and to add to this, buy the pixel 7a to save some money or a discounted 7 pro if you really want some good pictures

This one, I presume?

wX (Weather app geared towards storm chasers, meteorologists and weather enthusiasts)

shortwavesurfer ,

Wx is great, but it is really complex for someone who didnt attend classes in meteorology. Sure it is usable, but a lot of its functions are not geared for the average user IMO.

@CrispAndTheSoggs@lemmy.world avatar

just downloaded. I think this is going to get to be my new weather app – but that UI is going to take some getting used to.

Thanks for the suggestion!

I am really excited for this one . Always loved boost .

Daisychan , in Jerboa currently unusable for other people?
@Daisychan@lemmy.world avatar

Same here. Wefwef and Liftoff work better for me now.

youslashuser , in Jerboa currently unusable for other people?

It’s very clunky for me

ATalkingPenguin , in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

Never knew pre-registration for apps was a thing. Signed up for this one, looking forward to giving it a go

it’s a thing mostly used for games but games and other apps are fundamentally identical

QubaXR , in Jerboa currently unusable for other people?
@QubaXR@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve been periodically installing and uninstalling it on my phone for the past 10 days. Never managed to launch it. Crashes after a second or two every time.

not_that_guy05 , in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

Fuck yeah. Let’s go.

Bosa , in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

Yes this is great! Between this and wefwef which is Apollo lookalike right now for iOS ppl this is great! Just need everyone over to Lemmy now but that’ll prob take decades

AzPsycho , (edited )

Saw the post about Apollo going offline and someone added the info for wefwef. Preregistered for Boost but so far wefwef is working great.

Edit: meant to write Boost not Apollo.

ChrisLicht ,

Wait, is Apollo coming to Lemmy???

AzPsycho ,

Sorry. I should clarify. I was reading a thread about Apollo going offline and Boost as an alternative so a preregisterd for Boost. I wouldn’t turn down an official Apollo app for Lemmy though.

ChrisLicht ,

Ah, got it.

I would love to see Christian port to Lemmy, just for the PR. There would be a lot of coverage if it happened, and the exodus would increase.

I’m dying to see Huffmann eat a fat turd at IPO.

Some said that they had read Christian acknowledging Lemmy and that he said if it maintains this kind of user growth, he might work on Apollo for Lemmy.

ChrisLicht ,

I might live to see Apollo for iPad after all!

Buzzz , in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

Anyone use both sync and boost? I had used RIF so trying to get a feel for how each had worked before leaning towards one

Bosa ,

Yes I have. There both good it legit comes down to personal preference. I preferred boos between the 2 but Sync is just as good.

testsnake ,

I originally used sync but then moved to boost. They’re both quite good and honestly the main difference between them is just personal preference. Once the Lemmy apps are out, I recommend just using both and seeing which one you gravitate towards more

ThatBaldFella , in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

I’m so excited for this!
