content: Google Play LinkFor this week only Tapatalk 4 is $1 in the Google Play Store. Version 4 is the newest version, that is now exiting beta testing. One big change in version 4 is the merging of the HD (for tablets)and main version of tapatalk into one single version.For those that don't know, Tapatalk is an excellent forum reader software for your smartphone and tablet.It might be a similar price on iOS but if so I couldn't find it.edit: sorry for the messed up link tag. fixed it.Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 4

content: Wallet appears to be for credit cards and the like. But a browse turned up some stuff including this:http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/44293/what-does-permission-manage-accounts-meanSo it's probably more benign than it first appears

content: Quote from: dunkemhigh on August 14, 2013, 06:58:51 pmIt's.. a wallet, as far as I'm concerned. It is indeed benign, it is merely using the features available on the platform which benefit from, say, automatic backups.
