What would your ultimate
Android media player do?
April Madden
Editor
I want a media player that can
talk to all of the streaming
services I use as well as my
own libraries, giving me quick
access to my Netflix and Play
Music accounts within the app.

Oliver Hill
Features Editor
I want an all-encompassing
media player that caters for
some of the more awkward file
formats I encounter on my
device. VLC comes close, but
there’s still some work to do.
Welcome
The humble Chromecast may not look like
much on the outside, but it’s a powerhouse
within.
While you can’t root Google’s little media
streamer, you can get it to do a lot more than
you’d expect. Head over to the Hacker Zone and
find out more on p46.
In fact, media has changed a great deal over
the past few years and Android – once a simple
OS for smartphones – is at the forefront of the
revolution. On p18 you’ll discover just what
Android devices can do to keep you entertained
– as it turns out, it’s quite a lot!
But we haven’t forgotten about your phone.
Turn to p12 to discover a range of apps that will
help you increase its performance and get
more from it, no root required. Elsewhere, we
take a look at what you can do to protect your
files and data, and how you can recover them
