Google takes out Shared Circles feature on Google+

‘Terminator Genisys: Revolution’ app is the first to allow pre-registration on Google Play Store

Google’s trying out a new feature on its app store and the first app to make use of it is the upcoming Terminator Genisys: Revolution game from Glu Mobile. Now, users can pre-register the game from the Play Store. It takes the place of the install/buy button on the app’s Play Store page.

Pre-registering doesn’t mean you agree to buy the game. It’s just a way to tip users that the app or game is already available for purchase or installation. You can even unregister if you change your mind.

Google takes out Shared Circles feature on Google+

If you’re still one of the few people on Google+, you may or may not have noticed that Google has taken out a feature on their social network. The tech giant quietly took away the Shared Circles feature. It’s similar to the public follow lists on Twitter. As its name suggests, it lets you share Circles of followed pages and people.

Google hasn’t really said why they took it out. But Android Police speculates it has to do with Shared Circles being used mostly for low-level social spam, which adds to useless content on the social network.

Make quick, easy-to-remember notes with Notification Reminder

Sometimes you just want to jot down something quickly and be reminded at a later time, like buying milk after work. A new Android app called Notification Reminder will help you do just that. As its name suggests, you can make little notes and reminders that you can access and be reminded of at a later time via notification. You can quickly create notification reminders within three seconds, set a Snooze Reminder, update or share notes, or view your note history. You also have the option to create a reminder that is “clear-able” or one with “Persistent on going notification.” You can have the app close once you create the note.

It’s a simple app that follows Material Design. So, if you just want those quick reminders, you might want to check this out.
