I use Keepass on PC and sync it with Keepass2droid offline on Android. The dev just updated it and made it even better.

btw google rewards is an app that gives you google play credit for answering short surveys. Great way to pay for the occasional app without getting it illegally
Thank you. i never heard of this app before.
I just installed, took the setup survey, then got $1 for answering a one question survey.
 :D :D

If you have persistent notifications which you don't need there, you can turn them off in app settings, depending on your version of Android.
I would like to stock up the twitter notifications.

When i pull down i want to see whats app before twitter...



How do you sleep at night with so many notifications?  :o
When I get a notification I either open it, or swipe it away, why leave it?

Anyway, if you use touchwiz you have this solution, stock android doesn't seem to have this feature, unless you're rooted and want to play around with the system UI xml fiels. You can try the alternative laungers (i.e. go, nova, apex) they might have similar features.
Whats touchwiz? and that vid doesnt help fr what im looking for.
If you have any questions please search and then ask. PM me for detailed help.

I believe the order of notifications in Android is based on the priority that each app gives them, and I don't think you can change it.
Touchwiz is Samsung's version of Android. Basically every Samsung android phone has it.

Touchwiz is Samsung's launcher for Android. Basically every Samsung android phone has it.

I'm thinking maybe they're pay according to one's location. Meaning, If there are more survey takers in one location, they pay less than in other locations with less responders.

I don't think you can. It's whatever the developers built into the app.

I had my first survey this morning in middle of my sleep. After answering the question (I'm an experienced sleep texter, I should add that to my resume  :D) there was a message of the balance being available for a certain amount of time, but I clicked ok before reading. How long does it stay on my account?

Whatsapp alternative. Share files up to 1gb, make groups up to 200 people, and can be installed on desktop also. The only thing that is missing is users, and that can be solved...
