2) For a while now iOS customers were the exclusive bearers of the Futurama Head-in A Jar App. Welp, now you can go fuck yourself Apple fans, because Android users now have an app of our own with new features according to a press release from Comedy Central:

In response to fan demand, the creators developed a new Decapodian head-shaped Dr. Zoidberg in addition to the plethora of existing head-shaped offerings for all four species.  Other highlights include new backgrounds from the current summer season, additional accessories such as the Brain Slug, expanded name-plate features, more eye, nose and hair options and an updated Robot color palette.
