You have heard so much about Android from your friends and the Internet that you go and buy your own Android phone. Now the first thing you want to do is download an App! So you go to the Android Marketplace and voila! 400000+ Apps await you. Which app should you choose? Confused?? That's why I have made a list of Apps that you should download and use. I am excluding social networking apps like Facebook and Twitter because everyone knows about them and infact so many people test their marketplace by downloading the Facebook app for the first time! So it will be a waste of space if I include them in my list:
- Viber : This app lets you call and message anyone in the world for free! The person you want to contact should have this app installed and of course should be connected to the Internet at that time. The voice quality is amazing and the UI is also very easy to use. The best part is that you don't have to register anywhere to use this app. You just have to enter your phone number ,so that you can be recognised by your friends using Viber. It automatically reads your contacts and checks if any of your friend is using Viber , and then informs you about it. Currently it is available only on Android and iOS, so you can use it to contact your android and iPhone friends. The only drawback is the absence of video calling. If you want to make video calls ,then you should checkout Skype.
- GPS Essentials : As described on the marketplace , it is the Swiss army knife of GPS navigation! This App has very unique UI and allows you place as many as 45 widgets on it such as Speed,Accuracy,Altitude,Battery level,Satellites,Time,etc. You can use it check the accuracy of your GPS position or use it as Compass. You can also use it to measure distance between two points,create tracks,manage them and also view them on Google Maps. An extremely handy App.
