Turn tablet kid-friendly - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

I've done some reading and found launchers, suggestions and apps. Wondering if anyone has a setup they can share? My little cousin is 7 and I got her a nexus 7
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 4

I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for but I share my device with my kids (4 and 7). I've set up an user account for them and I've locked it down with "kid' s place ". They can only reach the apps that I allow and can't mess with any settings. You can also use the timer function to limit their usage of the device. Exciting "kid's place" needs (if you choose this option) a code too...
The reason why I use different user accounts is to allow them to have their own user data in shared apps
I hope this is useful to you...

If you update the tablet to Android 4.3 you could use a restricted profile
Hope that helps

One thing I just thought of is, you could use desktop visualizer and make big icons on the home screen for the apps that they would be using so they dont need to go into the app drawer and open up unnecessary apps (Or I suppose you can just take off a shortcut to the app drawer from the home screen with a custom launcher).

A setup I used when I handed down my old tab to my son (3yo) is smart app lock from thinkyeah and apex launcher with icon size set up for bigger icons - kidoz TV for kid friendly vids and use adaway to - well that's obvious.

I use zoodles
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zoodles.kidmode

4.3s new restricted profiles would work well for this. I haven't tried it myself though.

Take a look at all these apps. I'm sure one of them will fit your needs.

A Gumdrop Case would be another good addition for a child.

1.First restrict play store for keeping adult material out of kids reach
2.put on low level puzzles game like cut the rope,where is my water etc
3.search for some drawing apps
4.I don't think launcher will have an impact but if u need some attractive icons u can try apex,nova launcher

Yes it configures your bluetooth drivers to be compatible with the playstations3 hid bluetooth remotes. In a nutshell it pairs your playstation controller to your phone via a bluetooth mac adress that you match with your control via a windows app that the dev provides.

I only joined the Android party last April, but there's a number of great apps I find myself using all the time (in no particular order):
Pandora - I've been in love with this service for years, and the Android app is very solid
Rom Toolbox - Conveniently combines a bunch of features in one place. I only use the free version, and it's like a standard, very useful, Swiss Army knife. I imagine the paid version hulks it up to one of those inch-thick everything you might ever need in your pocket models. For me, the Terminal Emulator, Ad Blocker, Auto Start Manager, and Font Installer see regular use.
LastPass - While you have to pay to use the mobile client, it's really cheap and the convenience of having access to everything on the go is amazing. The app is comprised of two parts, really: a standalone browser for browsing to and automatically logging in to any site in your vault, and a system keyboard, which you can use to plug any of your logins into any app on your phone. If you're a Dolphin HD user, there's also a convenient browser plugin.
Waze - I typically use Google Nav when I don't know where I'm going, but Waze is amazing for user-generated traffic, hazard, police, and other information on your drive. I bring it up on my daily commutes so I can pick the optimal route to/from work, avoid speed traps along the way, and have an accurate, updated-along-the-way ETA for when the wife inevitably calls and asks when I'll be home.
Screen Filter - a sublime utility. qbking's video list didn't mention the widgets available with this app, which are my primary method of use. I have four different dimmer settings between 11 and 62% that cover just about every situation I regularly find myself in. A quick home screen slide and a tap and everything becomes much easier on the eyes in low light situations.
ZDbox - Like Rom Toolbox, this is an app that provides a handful of useful tools. It's my choice for app locking, batch uninstall, batch SD moves, and cache cleaning.
IMDb - I would die if I didn't have this baby handy for all the times I'm watching a show or movie and ask "where have I seen him before?!"
QuickPic - A stellar image browser with very convenient options to include/exclude specific directories on your file system.
Go Launcher EX - With themes, folders, widget resizing, gestures, etc., I love this launcher and its flexibility
AContact - I don't think I've ever heard anybody else talk about this alternative dialer/contacts; I stumbled onto it in the market one day and it's become my favorite for its clean, configurable interface
Woah can't forget GTA III

I'm loving AppBak. It makes a backup of your installed apps and when you restore it takes you to the Market for that app so everytime I do a fresh install of a Rom I can also install my apps fresh in a few minutes.

I have My Backup Pro not Titanium so I don't know but it only takes me about 10 minutes to re-download about 50 apps and there is only a small amount of data I restore. Then I end up with a complete fresh install which seems to be the starting point for solving several problems so I figure why not start there and try to avoid the problems in the first place.
Bump? i'd like to know what others fav apps are still! XD

Handwritting with Asus Supernote

The size of the N7 makes it idea for taking notes - I can hold the device in one hand and write with the other in a way that's not possible with a 10" sreen. Amusingly the best app I've found for this is Asus SuperNote, but the menu buttons that normally appear on the bottom of a 10" screen don't appear on a 7". Bumping build.prop's ro.sf.lcd_density from 213 to 170 (root req) fixes it, but a system wide change like that for compatibility of one app is a less-than-ideal-solution imo.
Anyone have any ideas for another possible fix?
Just wait on paranoidandroid. You can set DPI for individual apps

I just tried this on Jr5, with the tablet ui mod and I had the nav buttons. It looked great, thanks for that.

I sideloaded supernote on my N7 and noticed the navigation buttons were missing (I'm not rooted and thus running standard DPI).
My work around when in scribble mode I toggle to the keyboard to use backspace, enter key, or insert a space.

There's another thread on note taking. I used to like Freenote the best, but in this other thread, someone pointed out Handy Note. It's not free, but well worth the one dollar. Finally something I can actually use, organize, share and backup. Check it out. I tried Supernote as well. Was not good enough for me.

As was suggested early on, I think the idea of having configurable support for screen density of each app (or however you'd describe it) is the solution to this problem and others like it. For now I've suck with stock and the build.prop edit, but I'll probably be on a custom rom with this functionality before long.
Also, I've tried all of the alternate app suggestions in this thread as well as most in the other. There's a wide variety of apps to pick from - some with a little less functionality, some with way way too much more for my liking (and at 30+ megs installed, they'd better do more!).
As mentioned by a few people FreeNote is the best replacement for SuperNote in general design, but with more configurability and features, plus a smaller installed size to boot. However, all the apps I've tried do one curious little annoying thing "wrong" that SuperNote get's right... they misplace descenders (g j p q y) fully above the baseline.
is there now a way to run Supernote perfectly on the nexus 7? If so how would you go about doing that
Has anyone found a way to make it scale with ParanoidAndroid? I have tried 160dpi and different layouts, but never got it quite right :S
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
If you continue to have issues with SuperNote, consider checking out Handy Note Pro. I found it to be more usable. Plus, there's more than a few user reviews on Google Play that said that they lost all of their work when the app borked.
I just watched a video on youtube about asus memo pad 7, in it they were using supernote lite and the memo pad 7 is a 7" tablet so it should be perfect for a n7.
Someone is bound to get a hold of that apk so I will be on the look out for that!

4. MXPlayer - one of the best apps for viewing movies and online content if you dont want to use gallery.
5. ProPlayer Music Player - Awesome music player that support all music formats, built in EQ, allows you to change songs when phone in standby mode by just the volume button
6.Tweetcaster - Great App to use if you tried of twitter. other than that its a social networking app that needs no explanation
7. Amazon App Store - They offer a Free Paid App Of The Day (snag rom toolbox pro off of there this is a must have app) did i mention FREE PAID APP A DAY!!!!!
8. XDA App - No Explanation at all
9. Dolphin browser HD - To me Best web browser on the android market (Plz remember this is an opinion lol)

I've been back and forth on task killers. The one I'm using now has a quick 1-click widget. I excluded all of the apps that should stay running for stability and other reasons and only have it setup to kill games and other apps that I don't want notifications from and don't need to keep running. It's quick and easy for me to just kill all the junk apps all at once. I have noticed a performance difference with it too.
I also use Autostarts to keep crap from starting up when I don't need it.

This ability is built in to Touchwiz, and can be found in the settings. It's called Blocking Mode, schedules, allowed contacts ... just as you describe, free.
Tasker, Dropsync, Nova Launcher, Hovernote, Floating Browser, (in-app pro version purchase based on IMEI is annoying, but it works, and can be restored after uninstallation) and the best photo editor I've found is PicSay Pro.

Those are my top 3 for sure. PowerAmp definitely isn't necessary, but I like it more than the sammy player. Sometimes I may use beautiful widgets, but on the Note2 I use One More Clock as my clock/weather options and it's free. If any good kernels get developed, I'll buy the kernel developers app as well.

Google currents alternative

Since currents got taken down and replaced by new stand are there any alternatives out there that are similar to currents? I liked how it sorts your subscription by categories and you can access the categories by swiping in from the left and once in a category if you swipe from the right you can access different subscriptions... Anything out there that does this?

Anything out there that does this?

I've used Pulse for a long time and like it a lot.

News360 is another good one.
Not a fan of the layout that pulse uses and I'll give news 360 a go. Thank you

im another looking for a Currents replacement. I loved Currents it was perfect for what i want! I have tried, Feedly, Greader, Flipbook, rss reader, they all suck! I just want something that looks good and more importantly allows me to categorize my feeds! none of them let me do this.. If i want to read about android stuff i go to my android feeds, if i want car, i car to all my car feeds etc.. Will have a look at 360 too.. hepe its good.
