Google opens two-hour window for return of Android apps

Google used to give people a 24-hour window to initiate a refund over an app they no longer want. But developers thought it was extreme so they cut that down to 15 minutes. Thinking that was too short, Google has decided to change it again to a two-hour window. Android users will now have a couple of hours to decide if the app they purchased is worth their money. They will refund you within that timeframe and if you still miss it, Google suggests you talk to the developer directly. Admittedly, two hours seems like enough time to tinker around with an app and decide if you want to keep the app or not.

HTC to host ‘Double Exposure’ event on Oct. 8

There are different theories floating around about what HTC’s upcoming “Double Exposure” event in New York City can be for. It can be a nod for HTC One M8’s DuoCamera system. Does this mean we’re getting a new phone right after IFA? Or could they finally be introducing their Android Wear device? I guess we just have to wait until October 8th to find out what HTC has up its sleeve.
