This week’s Android Apps Weekly is sponsored by Perbby. Perbby is a social application where you can post what you’re doing and where you’re doing it. Other members who are near you will be able to see your posts and “heart” them if they’re interested in doing the same activity. Once that happens, you’ll have the option to chat with them and set things up! It’s a fun little app with a clean design and a fairly straightforward premise. It also uses Facebook login. It’s free to download so why not try it out?

Welcome back to Android Apps Weekly! Let’s jump right into the headlines!

  • Google is giving a look at its new design language which is aimed to make everything on the web and mobile look the same. So far Google Search has been updated to mixed reviews thanks to the colored microphone but otherwise it looks pretty good. Google also has a new logo!
  • Samsung has announced that they’ve been working with European digital publisher Axel Springer to create a curated news app for their Galaxy devices. It’ll be known as UPDAY which will debut in select markets soon and slowly roll out to everyone else.
  • Noodlecake Studios has announced that they’re working with Built By Snowman to bring the hit iOS game Alto’s Adventure to Android. The snowboarding game was hailed for its slick graphics and unique game play. We’re excited about it!
  • Dendroid developer, Morgan Culbertson, pleaded guilty to federal charges revolving around the creation of his malware app. The malware would infect devices and give the hacker access to all kinds of wicked things. If convincted, Morgan could face up to 10 years in prison and $250,000 in fines.
  • YouTube is preparing for a fundamental change. According to multiple sources, it will evolve into a mixture of free videos, ad-supported videos, and premium videos complete with a paywall. According to other sources, this is because YouTube actually doesn’t contribute to profit and Google wants to change that.
