Media Button Router vs Moon Phase
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Media Button Router
In android, app writers decide what priority they get when receiving media buttons (pause/play, previous, next, etc). This can be frustrating to users if they want to use a different app to handle these button presses on their Bluetooth devices. This app attempts to alleviate these pains by providing hands-free selection of the app you want to use to handle media buttons through text-to-speech and use of the previous, next, and play buttons for selection.
Moon Phase
Shows the real time view of the Moon, providing information about the current moon phase. This code has been originally belonged to the set of "shallow sky" astronomy applets, developed by Akkana Peck as long ago as in 1996 to run on Sharp Zaurus PDA.
