Looking to try out a new app on your iPad? Check out Architizer, which showcases different examples of unique architecture from around the world. Even if you’re not a graphic designer or architect yourself, you’re bound to find something interesting. But in case you prefer Android instead, you may want to take a look at Switcher, a free app that improves multitasking on Android with iPad-like gestures.

Good and EVO

The HTC EVO 4G LTE was just updated to 1.22.651.3, which also means that Google Wallet is finally working properly! But this update also patches the LazyPanda S-OFF exploit, so in case you haven’t gotten S-OFF quite yet, you may want to wait before updating. Sunday, July 15, was also a big day at Sprint due to the release of the EVO 4G LTE in white, along with the official launch of 4G LTE.

Anythingbutiphone

Amazon is also upgrading its Android Appstore with social gaming features like achievements, leaderboards, and game save synchronization. The service, known as Amazon GameCircle, aims to bring Xbox LIVE-like features to Android.
