Favourire apps?

[Sombrero]

We nearly all have smart phones, so what are your favourite apps?

My top are:

Soundhound - brilliant if you want to know what a song is
Google sky - amazing for star gazers
Rain alarm - shows the rain clouds heading towards you
Real Calc - great scientific calculator
Historypin - put old photos on google earth map, more people should do it
TV guide uk lite - great tv guide

Any suggestions?

an audible phone would be good. Apps in the main, nah, for dumb users IMHO.

There are really good Apps out there, my phone is used a lot more than for making calls now!

You rotten barstewards... I'm sure you all know that my phone is a relic from about 7 yrs ago. So isn't smart, wouldn't know an app from it's ass. I can get the internet on it (prefer the Opera browser though) and when on the internet, a snail, on GHB could move faster.

totally wrong for me. don't want my phone to anything other than ring.

My favourite apps are -

Telephone - allows you to make and receive phone calls to or from any phone in the world.

SMS - allows non-audio communication between your handset and others with the same app. Messages are in the form of something called a 'text', but may require you to learn a whole new language. IMHO, FWIW, it's GR8, LOL!!

I recently succumbed to the "must have a smart phone" mantra.

The 3 apps I do use quite a lot are:
Bosch Camera. Take a pic of the job you're doing. Add dimensions before the plasterers hide your cables (free)
Carpenter. A spirit level on drugs. Very handy but paid for (to get rid of annoying ads).
Camera+. Much better than the camera on my 3GS (paid for)

wow i thought i was old, yet you lot sound well past it.

Apps are great... theres even a spirit level one, and a calculator, and i'm sure you can order on line from your suppliers whilst on the job...etc.

Is there a compass NSEW, even though i don't have/need a phone like that.

Sorry? what?

Yes you can get an app as a compass and some people do want that...

But you can get apps that suit just about everyones' hobbies/lifestyles..

just because you don't do it, don't diss it..

Back on track.... any useful apps people have?

These are by far the best apps

Doesn't that pi$$ the missus off though? Or is she too busy trying to keep the page in her book steady?
