My new smartphone - App suggestions

[Cerveza]

Is a Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket (ATT) and it absolutely rocks. Glad I went with this one.

There's a site that does phone battles 1v1. I put this phone against about everything available and it kicked butt.



So, what apps do everyone use? What are the top apps, the ones that you couldn't live without?

The one I use the most because I don't root my phone typically is Pdanet

It's still very cheap for Android and serves my tethering needs extremely well.

Also, I love eWallet.  I've been using Ilium software for years coming from the WinMo world, so their stuff is really useful.  Thankfully they've started porting things from that world to Android (though not fast enough for me)

I can't wait for their ListPro to be ported.  (HURRY ALREADY!!)

My list of apps:

File Management: Astro

Game: Base Defense

Home screen widgets: Beautiful Widgets (I have the paid version, but free is still decent)

News: USA Today, CNN, and NPR

Browser: Dolphin Browser HD (until my phone is upgraded to ICS and can use Chrome)

Travel: GasBuddy

Movies: IMDb (Gotta have it so you can look up actors/actress while watching tv/movies on the couch)

Music: Google Music and Pandora (when on Wifi)

GPS: Google Navigation

Shopping List: Out of Milk

Sports: Sportacular

Remote Desktop: TeamView (set it up for always-on for your desktop, then you can remote to it anytime with the app)

Voicemail: Google Voice

TV: If you have Comcast(Xfinity) and have a digital box (not the adapters, but a full digital cable box) you can remote control your box from the Xfinity TV app

Recovery/Safety: Where's My Droid (can locate lost/missing device)


That's pretty much every app on my phone (plus a few other stupid games and the typical crap they pre-install)
