Spots - Magical Launcher for Android
Can't connect with my Facebook account
Whenever I press Call or Text Someone On the desktop version It does Nothing I have it synced and if I miss a call it doesn't notify me Until I restart my computer -- Galaxy S4 M919
But it's actually not a home screen replacement. It sits on top of your default launcher.
Everything works perfectly. Google should have made such an extension a long time ago.
i really love the idea of this and the app and new tab page are amazing on their own; however i cant seem to get sms from my laptop to sync to my phone and vice versa. i can see conversations but cant send anything or get notifications. this would be really useful and is kind of the reason i got this app so im hoping it can improve soon!
None of the call or text shortcuts work. I use textSecure private message as my sms app and the default caller app. Nothing happens at all
Soooo useful i highly recommend, give it a try- im very pleased with the app :)
cant sign in with google or fb, what more use? (without syncing)
Works perfectly on my note 2. Very buggy on Chrome PC ver. Would be great to see some options to change from left to right.
I love the chrome extension but there really should be more to the app and a widget that shows things from the chrome extension should be added. Also, is it supposed to stop syncing? It still hasn't happened.
Installed the program for sending messages. Never worked and no solutions provided for other users with similar problem. Did sync (or so it says) but messaging and calls still not working. No option but to give it 1 star as it does not do what it is supposed to.
As soon as they make texting and call monitoring work, it'll be one of the greatest extensions/apps ever! I'm pretty satisfied with it anyway.
Good
There should be an option for passive apps and contacts... favorite is useless (not using at all) , no option to personalize! The idea is great (with great interface) but missing a lot of functionality. I will not uninstall app, will wait for the update and will give it a 5 star rating!
Why do I have a "Spots is in sync" persistent notification. I can't get rid of it and stays in sync nonstop. Its taking up space on my notifications bar.
I'll give it 2 stars because if all you need is a different launcher it does the trick. But the truth is the sync with the Chrome plugin does not work and personally that was the main point of this app.

It fails to login with google or facebook, if the first choice is google then it wont stop synchronizing. Good potential tho, realy looking forward to be able to use wen its fixed
Download the Spots Chrome (desktop) extension along with the Android launcher and you're able to sync data between your desktop and phone! Works exactly as described. Makes launching your favorite apps and contacts a breeze.
I've tried logging in with my Facebook a bunch of times over the last few days and no luck! This is already working on chrome, so what gives?
very dissapointed with the app.
How can I add to favorites on mobile? or update contacts tab? seems to lack some customization I would like
A bit buggy, I guess? It's been "in sync" on my phone for the past hour - and it's definitely connected to my google account the way it's meant to be - yet I'm still seeing no SMS history, contacts or notifications in the Chrome extension, which is also properly connected to my Google account. What's going on?
Good idea, needs improvements. Call and text aren't consistently working. Also, recently visited doesn't update well. 1 star for garbage execution of a good idea.
It very nice! :)
It's not like what I want though fine
Good night
Nice
Very cool!
I haven't used it much yet but so far so good. I like how clean this app is. Works really well with chrome extension

It's good but it could be great with just a little bit of fine tuning. The ability to hide apps in the most used list is essential. I have Nova sitting in the no1 slot. Not helpful! Contact sorting isn't working properly either. My no1 contact is someone I've never phoned and will never want to. Favourite syncing took a couple of days but now provides a useful list. Maybe this is just wishful thinking with no update since January but if these features were added, I'd pay for the app.
Whenever I try to sync with my facebook account it says "We are currently experiencing problems connecting to Spots with your facebook account". Completely useless because I have it synced to my facebook on my laptop.
Excellent features for great utility n convenience.. keeps everythng info sync on my lappy, officrpe oc n tablet... thanks for making such a great app... Just one question- y I am unable to use launcher and see the sidebar handle on my phone that runs on android gingerbread os... even after I set transparent handle Off on settings menu... can u help
5 stars once the call and text functions work on the chrome extension
If fixed, I would give for stars
Its an awesome app.
Amazing app on both mac and phone Wish you could make an iPhone version
All in all it is a smart idea. Unfortunately, the text and calling notification features do not work consistently. If that could be fixed, I would give the program a higher score. The "help section" is not in English and I do not speak the language it is written in. Please fix this program and it could be quite useful.
