 This is a list of apps for Android that I highly recommend. Almost all of them are available as free versions, but the paid versions are worth it. All of these apps can be downloaded from the Android Store. Must Have Apps - MSN Droid - Lets you chat on Windows Live Messenger/MSN service. Best MSN interface out there for Android. Plenty of options and settings. Ad supported.
- Network Monitor - Keeps track of the amount of data you are using on both dataplan and Wifi. Paid version comes with graphs and no ads.
- Google Maps - If it's not already installed you have to get it!
- Google Sky - It's a map of the sky!
- G-Strings - Chromatic guitar tuner that works really well.
- Ring Droid - Lets you cut up music files to use them as ring tones.
- Google Shopper & Barcode Scanner - Both programs let you scan barcodes of books, cds and other items to get prices, reviews and information from the web.
- Key Ring Reward Cards - Get the cards out of your wallet. Scan in your grocery or point cards (Air Miles, Safeway) and then use the laser scanner at the store to scan the bar code on your phone.
Good Apps - Super List - Great as a to-do list or grocery list.
- Weather Eye - Better weather app and widget for Canadian android users. Nice interface.
- Newspapers - Get newspapers right on your phone.
- Dock Simulator - Lets you view your phone in both car and media dock modes.
Games - Robo Defence - Fun castle defense style game.
- WSO Poker - Best poker game out there. Online play.
- Bejeweled Magic - Pretty much the basic Bejeweled game.
- World War - Strategy game
