APP REVIEW: Falcon Pro for Android, App Lock

Falcon Pro for Android

For a better experience than the official Twitter app, we suggest spending Rs 100 on Falcon Pro. The app has a easy to read interface with a built-in browser. This means that you no longer need to switch between the Twitter app and the browser to check links embedded in tweets.

Swipe right on the screen to access your lists, trends & search — swipe left to access mentions, favourites and settings.

The app also shows a preview of images and videos posted on your timeline and thanks to the embedded YouTube player, you can view videos right inside the app. A great feature is that you can mute tweets with a specific keyword on your timeline.

App Lock for Android

If you share your Android phone with others (especially your kids), there may be certain apps, features or settings in your device that you want to restrict access to.

For instance, if you want to disallow the ability to install/uninstall apps, access Google Play, make/receive phone calls, access email and so on – you can make individual adjustments through this free app.

You only need to set it up once by providing a numeric passcode or pattern and it even includes a home screen widget to help quickly enable/disable the lock function. It works great on most devices and does not display any ads — a pro version (Rs 106) adds more features.
