    App to Silence all for a set period of time

    Your phone should be able to do that without using any apps. From mine you go to settings/do not disturb/and select an amount of time. You can also set up rules to turn off sounds from say, 8am-5pm School Day or Work Day, for example.

    help with Google photos!!

    Don't feel like anything bad (whatever is under the *****)[emoji28] Asking is how you learn and people love to help. Also I'll bet there are people reading this thread going "Hmm I had that problem too but didn't know how to fix it..."

    What texting apps does everyone use?

    I don't see loading extra sms apps when I have a perfectly good one that came with my phone. [emoji28] I use the vanilla sms for texts to mostly everyone. And Hangouts too with my sister and husband. He and I prefer to use Hangouts. And my sister doesn't have a mobile phone, but we can keep an...

    Forceful, annoying ads/ ads won't close.

    Both my husband and I have games (his is Wheel of Fortune) where it seems they force you to interact with this battle strategy game. Maybe you've seen it. Anyway, if you wait over 20 seconds it will go away. Perhaps yours is the same? I just turn my phone over for awhile, go do a short task...

    Unknown lock screen added

    One way you could find it is go to the app store and look through your installed apps.

    Samsung Health Steps

    I hate leaderboards. Everywhere I go from, games to apps, someone has cheated to get to the top. Really? Was that worth your time? Are you so proud of yourself for getting to the top for something you didn't do? I do what wonderboy does. Stop looking at the board and focus on bettering yourself.

    The Best E-Book Reader + Dictionary Combo

    I have to say, I tried Moon+Reader in the past and really liked it a lot too. So good choice! I never noticed the page counter there when I was comparing different features with FBReader. I'll have to look at DictBox. That sounds familiar...but I will go look at it again. Sounds interesting.

    Beside Podcast Addict, I love BeyondPod. It's the most reliable one for me.

    The Best E-Book Reader + Dictionary Combo

    FB Reader like you, plus Livio dictionary. I use both online app and offline dict. Livio was recommended long ago by someone in FBReader forums. I don't think it's as well known but I love it the most. It has found a lot of definitions of old words in Irish, Scottish and English for me...

    What's the best lock Screen?

    I think I loaded Slidelock on my husband's old phone. Somehow the phone lost its capability to lock. So that app secured his phone. I'm not sure how it is at displaying notifications nicely but you can check it out.

    Your favorite task / to-do apps?

    I use Tasks: Astrid To Do List Clone. I also have and like Sol Calendar, which has a to-do widget. Both sync with Google so I can use whichever widget goes with my theme.

    Google voice SMS

    I have also looked into this. My sister and I use Hangouts exclusively for chat. She has no phone but a PC. She likes to work from her browser. I can send+receive messages on phone+pc. It works great for us to communicate instantly. However since Google is taking away the chat part this month...
