Watch videos on your Android? You need VLC.

VLC, the popular media player that first made its debut on Android way back in July 2012, is finally out of beta and available in stable form. Creators VideoLAN are still offering a beta version of the app separately for those who like to play with pre-release software.

Android’s not winning this fight any more.

Coming off a monster financial quarter, things are pretty good in Cupertino right now. But if Tim Cook didn’t have enough to smile about over his morning coffee, here’s one more: Apple has overtaken U.S. sales of Android devices for the first time since 2012.

According to figures pulled by market research team Kantar Worldpanel ComTech, the holiday quarter was a massive one for Apple as far as market share goes — with iOS devices picking up 47.7 percent of sales, compared to Android’s 47.6 percent.

The Nexus 5 is back in stock in the Play Store, at least in the United States, after being missing from Google’s online store for a couple of months. 

Facebook has just released a ‘Lite’ version of their app on the Google Play store that is meant to use less data and work on even slower mobile data networks. The app is aimed at low-end Android devices and targeted towards users in developing markets like Nepal and Bangladesh where 2G mobile data is still prevalent.
