Jesse Wilson returns to the show to chat all things Action Launcher with me. Topics include why there was more than 6 months between Action Launcher updates to start the year and what I learnt going so long between updates. I also discuss my pushing to release the Pixel Launcher inspired update so quickly after the leaks arrived, how the update was received by press and customers alike. Oh, and I both tease a major feature I withheld from a recent update and find a (valid!) excuse to talk about hidden menu items at In-N-Out Burger. Follow Jesse on Twitter: @JesseWilson. Follow me on Twitter: @chrismlacy Links: Action Launcher on Google Play. Even if you've already bought Plus, I'd appreciate a review! Note: this episode was recorded after early September's Action Launcher 3.9's update but before late September's 3.10 update.
Guest Phil Nickinson and I chat about all of the announcements from Google's September '15 event. We break down all the new hardware announcements, Google's decision to target the 6P and 5X at different segments on the market and Google's confidence with the camera. We also discuss Nexus Protect, the new Chromecasts, what we didn't see that we were expecting to and more. This episode is brought to you by my app Action Launcher 3. Go on, leave me a nice review!

Influential journalist Charles Arthur joins me for a discussion on the lay of the land for Android's traditional OEMs. Inspired by Charles' Premium Android hits the wall post, we dig into the revenues and shipments of these Android devices, dig into why these devices are collectively seeing a declining market share, as well as Apple's position in the market and the potential future implications for premium Android devices. This episode is brought to you by Action Launcher 3 for Android. Go on, leave me a review (I like the number 5). Follow Charles on Twitter: @charlesarthur.

Supreme iOS/Mac engineer and Apple aficionado Ben Sandofsky joins me to break down Apple's September 2015 event. We dig into all the details of the iPhone, iPad and Apple TV announcements, with detailed discussion on why the iPad Pro was even necessary, the Internet's reaction to the Apple Pencil, the types of games we may and may not see on Apple TV, our fears for 3D Touch and more. We also give our initial impressions of what was the most unexpected and perhaps bigggest announcement, that of the iPhone Upgrade Program, as well as discussing iCloud's stingy data caps, the 16GB base model iPhone and whether Apple's vastly increased product count and increasinly long keynotes are a worrying sign for the company. To close out the show, Ben gives some insight into his time as a technical advisor for HBO's Silicon Valley series. This episode is brought to you by Action Launcher 3 for Android.

Jake Wharton (aka the most in-demand Android engineer on the planet) takes over the show and proceeds to interview yours truly about all things Link Bubble, my now former app. We discuss everything about Link Bubble, from how I conceived the app all the way up to my selling of the app and everything in between. Some of the many topics discussed include the early prototyping of the app, my decision making process in applying for a patent on the app, my thoughts on the vocal folk who felt the app was outrageously priced at launch, the companion app TapPath, what it was like for me to temporarily trade in my engineering hat and try my hand at becoming a deal making executive, and a whole heap more. This episode is brought to you by Action Launcher 3 for Android. Go on, leave me a review (I like the number 5). Follow Jake on Twitter: @JakeWharton Follow me on Twitter: @chrismlacy Links The "directors cut" episode of The Blerg where guest Jesse Wilson and I discuss the Action Launcher 3.5 update. My announcement post of Link Bubble and TapPath's sale. Brian R. Bondy's announcement that all of Link Bubble's features are available for free for everyone. My initial teaser post about Link Bubble's release. My launch day post in response to the "this app is too expensive" commenters.
The tables are turned, as I become the topic of conversation, leaving my guest Jesse Wilson to drive and pose the questions during in-depth discussion about the recently released Action Launcher 3.5 update. We of course dig into the nitty-gritty of this update, where I discuss my motivations for developing Action Launcher 3's new Quickbar feature, how much of a struggle this update was for me to develop and why, how the launch has been received and more. Jesse also asks me what motivated me to start writing Action Launcher in the first place, we discuss details on features from Action Launcher 2 that haven't made it to Action Launcher 3, and I offer my perspective on Google Now as a launcher feature, and discuss whether I feel such support will ever come to Action Launcher.
