Google launched the New Google Currents v4.1 on Google Play store. But Google Current has something that Flipboard doesn't which is a developer-parent that produces the leading smartphone OS in the world. Google is taking advantage of this, according to an email sent to its partners, by adding Google Currents as a pre-installed application on all versions of Google 4.1. Here is a screenshot of YouMobile on the New Currents.

Google expects its action to result in a multitude of new Currents users, although by taking away your choice, it also takes away some of your storage space. Originally released late last year for Android and iOS, Google Currents takes your news feeds and converts them into a magazine style read. It also includes some default selections for your perusal. And now, with this news, Google Currents joins the Google family of apps found on the vast majority of Android devices.

Google has quietly rolled-out a new feature for the Google Play Store that personalized app recommendations. Google has had featured lists, and editor's picks for a while now, but this is the first truly personalized recommendations that the Google Play Store has offered on mobile. The recommendations have been available on the web for about a month, but this is the first time it's gone mobile.

The recommendations are found in the Apps tab of the Google Play Store, and feature a mix of apps and games that you may like. The recommendations are based on what apps your friends have +1ed on Google+, what apps are popular in your area, and apps that are "popular with similar users". Although that last one isn't explained, we would assume it is something pulled from the "user who installed this app also installed..." listings that you find on app pages.

Google Maps has officially launched for iOS. The app is available now in the iTunes App Store, and while it is a universal app, it is designed for the iPhone 5, meaning if you decide to install it on an iPad, it will not be optimized. Google Maps for iOS has most of the features you'd expect, and even more interesting it has launched with an SDK.

The app is everything that you'd expect from a Google Maps app. It includes the full range of places, and Street View imagery. It includes voice guided turn-by-turn navigation, vector drawn maps for faster loading and 3D modeling, live traffic info, and public transit directions. It's a full featured Google Maps app.

The only downsides we can see in initial testing is that it doesn't include walking or biking directions, and isn't optimized for the iPad yet. There also is no Google Latitude or offline maps, but we really didn't expect that. Overall, the app is slick and smooth. It even has some features we'd like to see come over to Android like having the top search result show at the bottom, and swiping up on it brings up the entire search results list. Google promised an amazing Maps experience, and it came through with this app.

Google Play is probably the fastest growing app market in the world, trailing close behind Apple's App Store. Last, we heard it has 600,000 apps, just 50,000 short of the App Store, but it was notorious for its more open policy towards apps that would often allow suspicious or plain raw apps. Now, this changes as Google has tightened up its app policy in terms of payment policy, advertizing, privacy and the looks of an app on Google Play.

Google Play App catalog policies Changes:

1. Payment Policy. Now, all transactions for Google Play apps should go through Google's very own payment platform. The exception is for material goods or content outside the app store. There is also an interesting paragraph where Google warns that app makers shouldn't mislead users. That's a pretty vague wording, but might help you if you accidentally purchase an app that doesn't do what it claims it should.

2. Naming/Icons. Google is now enforcing stricter rules for the looks and names of an app on Google Play. That's good news for users and bad news for copycats - there is a ton of games and applications that just slightly tweak the name of a popular game and use that to mislead users into downloading their stuff.

"Don't pretend to be someone else, and don't represent that your app is authorized by or produced by another company or organization if that is not the case," Google says.

3. Privacy. Strangely, Google hasn't clearly stated that viruses and trojans are forbidden. Now, it's all in the terms: "Don't transmit viruses, worms, defects, Trojan horses, malware, or any other items that may introduce security vulnerabilities to or harm user devices, applications, or personal data."

4. Spam. The Google Play store now clearly defines what's spam and this would include repetitive content, misleading product descriptions, manipulated ratings, apps that forward users to websites that are not affiliated with the app itself, and of course apps that send unauthorized messages from a phone.

5. Advertizing. Finally, Android's app catalog now has very clear rules on advertizing, so now developers carry all the responsibility for how ads behave.

After the success of the PC version, Mass Effect: Infiltrator by EA, one of the best looking third-person shooters on mobile, is now available on Android. It's closely related to Mass Effect 3, and actually it'd be better if you play this first as this will affect the storyline in ME3. Here you play the Infiltrator, with all your achievements recorded to Galaxy at War, and you'd accordingly get new skills and you'd arrive at a totally different ending at Mass Effect 3.

Mass Effect Infiltrator for Android works on both smartphones and tablets, but it's a hefty download at 450MB, so you'd better make sure you're connected to a Wi-Fi network, or you can see a big chunk of your monthly data disappear quickly.
