(But       then you lose privacy.)              But there's more... since Aurora does things for you Google will never do.              The PC version of Aurora allows you to download the APK to your PC, which       is useful for archival purposes (and for re-imaging en masse by sliding the       selected set of APKs over to the Android over USB on your PC to re-install       hundreds of APKs in a single swipe without needing to use the Internet).              On the Android Aurora (but not on the PC Aurora) you can set up automatic       updates which work far better than the Google Play Store autoupdate.              Like way way way way better...       There's no comparison.              Most people don't realize how brain dead the Google Play Store automatic       updates is. They just assume it covers all their apps, but it's not even       close as we've tested it and it's essentially garbage compared to what a       real auto updater for Android will do for you. But that's not on the PC.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
