Multi Window Manager for Samsung Devices:

Samsung has added a new multi window feature to a few of their Jelly Bean devices. However...there is only a limited set of apps compatible with this new feature.

Using this Multi Window Manager, you can enable ANY app to take advantage of this awesome new feature.

This weather app has much more micronised location system. This app on its homescreen widget updates fine monitoring location that is street address. Not battery and resource consuming.

:previous:

Does amazon allow download of even free apps without credit card details being entered/stored in your amazon account? I will be highly reluctant to provide the same as there is no second layer of security for online card payment processing in US (Like we have in India for entering additional pin) and straight away payment will be deducted in case of mistaken purchase.

There are ways to avoid that too ;)

Cannot discuss it openely here but that method can be used to download free app.
