Sitting back and watching TV is a great way to relax and take your mind off things – but if it’s been a while since you’ve been able to catch up on your shows then it can be quite difficult to track down the episode you last left off on. Indie and first time developer Jossay Jacobo has released his first application to help ease the process. VoodooTVDB is a simple, holo themed application which allows you to favorite, track, and keep your current progress through as many TV shows as you like in a Netflix-like format.
In the words of the developer:
Notification Reminders of your Favorite Upcoming Shows, Hot Shows recommendations, Clean Sexy UI, Ease of use, Offline support, Android 2.1 support and up, currently in Beta and will get much better once the full app launches!
Keeping track of TV Shows without the hassle
Voodoo TVDB brings many welcome ideas to enhance watching and keeping track of your favorite shows; from episode-by-episode descriptions, to progress, air date, and more all available from the homescreen on the application. From the home menu you can see upcoming shows, ‘What’s hot’ on TV, and what’s coming up next on your queue.
Possibly the most useful feature of the application is the timeline view and the notifications which accompany it. The timeline view gives you a brief overview of the upcoming episodes, their air date and time, and what series/show they are with. Grouped by their air date and sorted by time the timeline view will most likely become your most used view within the app. Not a user who frequently opens all their apps and weaves through upcoming events? No worries. Voodoo notifies you of your upcoming shows via a notification, letting you know ahead of time (with custom values set by the user) when to notify you of your next show coming on.
Overall
Voodoo TVDB is currently available for free on Google Play (although in Beta, it still feels very polished). The application really makes tracking shows and series very easy and without the hassle of others on the market. Want to catch yourself up on seen episodes? No worry, simply check the most recent one and the app does the rest. Download it and take it for a spin, offering some feedback for Jacobo!

We’ve all wasted countless hours on flash games – whether it’s been on a PC during a work break, or when you’re supposed to be studying for an upcoming exam. They’ve all provided loads of fun and I’m always excited to see some make their way to Android with a revamped design and interface. Today we’re going to check our “Hanger” and it’s new Android variant brought to us by A Small Game: 
The Atrix HD was one of the first HD smartphones by Motorola released in America, and being such, people loyal to the brand went out and grabbed it as soon as possible. Considering the low price point, it’s a pretty good deal for those just getting introduced into Android and for those looking to renew a contract. While there aren’t many cases out for the device, considering it was shadowed by the many other releases right-beside it, Cruzerlite has went out of the way to ensure that you have the usual quality protection for a low price.
Cruzerlite won over our hearts with their first line of Androidified cases, and then continued to do so with the announcement and release of community oriented designs such as the AOKP, RootzWiki, and various other styles. Recently they released their new Spi-Force series showing off the transition of Cruzerlite’s single layered TPU style into a new protection and media oriented design. We’re going to take a deeper look at Cruzerlite’s new style and show off some of the things it has to offer in our review of the Spi-Force series for the Samsung Galaxy S III. 
Keeping track of all your future events can become a real pain, especially when you have some ranging from just a few days away, to others nearly 6 months away. While there are many applications out there which help to alleviate the situation, this week’s Indie App provides the features that you need to ensure that you will never forget another task. Developer UgglyNoodle released Regularly, an application which allows you to keep track of all tasks, even those with flexible schedules. 
If you do quite a bit of downloading then I’m sure that you’ve seen how it can be difficult to manage multiple downloads at once when using the default download manager for your desktop computer. There are quite a few download managers available which provide a free service to assist you in making the management of those downloads easier. One of the more popular ones is 
Here at the office, we’ve been searching for the perfect texting client to allow us to text from our cell phone number from any device we own; whether that device is a tablet, desktop, or other device. Renown developer ClockworkMod has released his newest application, TabletSMS, which is created for the sole purpose of filling that role.
