Hulu Plus for Android received a slight update today, adding support for seven Android tablets and a new sleek UI. The new UI is specifically designed for tablets and allows users to swipe horizontal lists to view movies and TV shows. The seven tablets included in this update are:

Zite is a popular iOS app that personalizes your news content automatically based on your habits and interests. What differentiates it from other news readers is its ability to tap into how you interact with the articles you read. Zite gets to know you better and better over time. The app has finally made it to Android but unlike its iOS counterpart, has not received much praise. In fact, user reviews seem to slam the developer for making a clunky iOS port and completely disregarding Android UI guidelines. Apparently the app is laggy and feel more like a beta app than anything. Now I haven’t personally tried the app out but if initial reviews are any indication, I might now want to.

As a substitute to Android 4.0, Samsung has today rolled out a new software update called “Value Pack” to the original Galaxy S in Korea. The update takes features from Android 4.0 and crams them into the company’s existing Honeycomb build. The full list of features the Value Pack includes:

T-Mobile has sort of faded away ever since they attempted to join the dark side but they’re slowly climbing back into customers good graces. Today they detailed their plans to update a couple of HTC devices to Android’s latest and greatest Ice Cream Sandwich. HTC Amaze 4G and Sensation owners can expect to have their devices updated to Android 4.0 according to T-Mobile support documents posted online. The dates for the update are listed as TBD but the fact that these documents are up is a good sign.

2012 Mobile Game of the Year, The Dark Meadow, received a pretty major update on iOS today. Aside from all of the new features, the game has also gone freemium. The freemium version, entitled Dark Meadow: The Pact is a separate download on the App Store and as far as I can tell is exactly the same as the original paid version. The decision to go freemium may benefit the developers over the long term and is the reasoning for the jump. Although it is only available on iOS at the moment, it is scheduled to hit Android next month.
