Yesterday, only a day after the most recent token reset from popular Twitter app Falcon Pro, long-time users who had not had a chance to update and login to re-claim their token, flooded our inbox and Twitter with complaints of error messages. The messages simply stated that the “application cannot authenticate more users at this time,” which is the same message users were seeing before the reset earlier in the week. So what’s going on? How could all of the 100K tokens be taken up again in a matter of hours? Falcon Pro’s creator took to Twitter this morning, thinking that Twitter may have shut him down, and has since unpublished the app from the Play store.

Into the Dead, one of the most addicting zombie games to hit Android in the last couple of years, received an update this morning that includes the Canine Companion perk, along with a new exploding barrel during Massacre mode. The canine, as you would expect, will attack zombies during your run should you choose to include it. It’s violent, graphic, and makes you want to have a dog handy in case the real zombie apocalypse ever arrives. The exploding barrel, on the other hand, is used during massacre mode as a means to take out “dozens” of zombies at a time. Both new additions have been in the works since the game launched, but with their arrival we have a new reason to start playing this game again.

Oh, they also introduced a Friends leaderboard through Facebook.

Falcon Pro, what is arguably still the most popular Android Twitter client of the moment, reached its Twitter token limit again last night. What does that mean for you? In order to free up unused tokens, the app’s developer has uploaded a new version of the app that resets all tokens. So once you grab the new update (when it goes live), you’ll have to login again with your Twitter credentials to claim a token and continue using the app.

As we approach the rumored date for Android 4.3′s launch on June 20 (at least, that’s what our sources say), many have already come to the realization that we should not expect Google to introduce a new interface for the OS. It will still be called Jelly Bean and nothing too crazy will happen. What most in the business have their money on is that we can expect to see Google change up Android’s look in the iteration after next, being Android 5.0 “Key Lime Pie.” That’s when we will see some new colors, icons, wallpapers, etc. take place.
