Excited hello!

Start getting some essential apps!

 

Welcome to AF!

 

The essential apps that I would recommend (and that I use) are:

Advanced Task Killer - to kill those annoying apps that are written poorly for android and don't close on their own/use loads of battery (don't set it to run all the time though)

AK Notepad - simple notes app

ASTRO - file manager app

Barcode Scanner - very useful for finding apps, also pretty cool

DroidLight - see in the dark using the dual-LED

Goggles - very cool visual search function with google

Google Sky Map - fun app for finding constellations

Google Voice - adds a second number to your phone, if you have a gv account

handyCalc - graphing/scientific calculator, huge features set

Key Ring - get those dumb rewards cards off your keychain and put them on your phone

Maps - self explanatory, great for navigation, never get lost again

Movies - with rottentomatoes reviews, great for finding a movie to go to

Pandora - listen to streaming music for free

Ringdroid - create your own custom ringtones

SchottGunn and The Schwartz Unsheathed - mess around with your friends

Shazam - identify music you don't know

ShopSavvy - scan barcodes and find the best price for an item

SMS Popup - sms notification app with quick reply, reply, close delete and custom notification settings

SNesoid, NESoid and Gameboid - emulators, some of the best games for android can be played this way

Where's My Droid - never lose your phone again, text your phone a keyboard and it turns your volume up and rings if you lost your phone and it's on silent

Where - find gas stations, restaurants, yellow pages stuff etc.

Wikimobile - wikipedia for your phone
