    Status of Android Central Podcast?

    I miss this podcast and have now switched over the Android Police podcast. It's similar to what AC used to be. I am dissappointed that the podcast has gone stale. I have been listening just about every week since Phil was the host.!

    I installed Greenify which kills all the processes running in the background when not using the phone. It has almost doubled my battery life. Suggest trying it. It works best if you are rooted but there is an unrooted part as well. It's in the playstore.
