I think this depends on what flavour of android you have. I can't answer your question, but if you provide the phone model and os version, it should help whoever comes along and can answer :)

They aren't crap at all, stop projecting your opinion as fact.

At worst they're niche, but provide tangible and easily understandable benefits that you might not care about that others love. That's like me hating on the newest Samsungs camera, just because I personally don't value mobile photography.

Your complaints about durabilitu are pretty tied these days, the technology has improved a lot and you can realistically be as careless as you can with any other cell phone. There are valid concerns , such as Samsungs issue with hairline cracking along the hinge, but you can stop parroting points addressed over the past 5 years now.

Mad respect for answering this and not causing an xkcd moment

Sorry let me be more clear, specifically an android app that has an announcement and can record the call with permission, or terminate the call without

Wild to me that theres a whole country out there that has so much influence over my life (an entire ocean away) and they don't know how much their meal will be before the cheque comes. Incredible.

...but why?

Justin did a segment on this not long ago that had me in stitches

Can confirm Source: don't eat meat, still a fat little gremlin

I feel this. A couple years ago I decided you either get me on signal or SMS, I lost contact with a lot of people after that, but seeing my contacts slowly join and having people slowly start to accept it as a viable messaging app is a good feeling
