Curious to see what the next version of iOS will be like but don’t have an iPhone? Now there’s an app on Google Play called Control Center that brings the iOS 7 Control Center user experience to Android phones.

The app functions pretty much identical to the Control Center found on iOS 7 except it’s more customizable. Swipe up from the bottom of your device and you get quick access to toggles for Wifi, Bluetooth, volume, a flash light, camera, and a couple of other basic functions.

The download is free in Google Play right now so if you’ve been eyeing some of the new iOS 7 features, here’s how to get one of them with out having to spend a cent on a new iPhone.

Crazy-Taxi

The Dreamcast classic Crazy Taxi made its mobile debut on iOS last September, and today it finally comes to Android. It’s almost entirely the same as the original hit — it even has exactly the same soundtrack featuring Offspring and Bad Religion — but it’s been optimized for touchscreen devices.

Skype-Android-HD

Skype overhauled its Android app with a new user interface and a number of new features last week. And following lots of user feedback, the company has just rolled out another release. This one fixes a number of frustrating problems, and makes the sign-out process easier.

Fleksy, the revolutionary new Android keyboard, has received another pretty solid update that brings a stack of new features and performance/stability enhancements.

Google Play is home to a ton of Android apps, but sometimes it can be hard to find the truly great ones. In what it’s calling the “Beautiful Design” Google Play collection, Google has complied a list of some of the most gorgeous Android apps out there.

“Attention to detail makes an app truly beautiful: transitions are fast and clear, layout and typography are crisp and meaningful, and design touches that delight you in surprising ways are sprinkled throughout.” There are 13 apps in the list, and Google plans to refresh the lineup and make new additions in the future.
