Android hasn’t always been one of the prettiest mobile platforms, but thanks to the design changes Google has made in recent years, it is now. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said for some third-party Android apps.

Take Instagram, for example. It still looks like an exact port of Instagram’s iOS app from 2012, and it doesn’t make any efforts to follow Google’s “Holo” design guidelines for the more recent versions of Android. If it did, it could look pretty fantastic — as these fan-made mockups demonstrate.

LG has already confirmed that its new G Pro 2 will be making its debut at Mobile World Congress later this month, but it seems it cannot help but spill the beans of some of its new features beforehand.

On its official LG Social website, the Korean company has confirmed that its new phablet will boast a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera that’s capable of shooting Ultra HD 4K video.

Earlier today, Sprint announced that it has added another six new Android-powered smartphones to its lineup of PTT service compatible handsets which enables customers to have fast one-to-one conversations via 3G when they open up the Sprint Direct Connect Now App – which is available to download from the Google play store.

Apex Launcher Pro is currently receiving a much-anticipated update. For those unaware, Apex is an extremely versatile third-party home screen launcher, which allows its users to completely alter the appearance of their smartphone or tablet.

The upgrade doesn’t bring much in terms of new functionality, but it does bring a multitude of highly-requested bug fixes, stability improvements and speed optimizations, plus the ability to sort apps in the drawer and receive push notifications via Apex Notifier 2.0.

According to an anonymous U.S. Cellular representative, the operator is all but ready to start pushing out the much-anticipated Android 4.4.2 update for its carrier-branded Moto X handsets currently located in the United States. The update is expected to start landing on our devices within the next couple of todays, bringing with it an improved camera experience, support for Google Print Services and all of the added functionality that KitKat includes.
