I didn't see a tech thread and figured this should work here. I have been fiddling on my Android getting some apps put in and changing themes ect. Was curious what some of your fave apps are. Or even themes etc. I currently downloaded the Google sky map app. It's awesome because I can be in my room and just point in any direction and get a star and planet map in real time! Got a few more faves:

~Google sky: map of sky
~Redbox: I reserve movies regularly from my phone.
~ OnTrack: Blood glucose monitor log. This one helps when I go see my doc and I can pull up a chart of my blood sugar readings for him.
~Gas Buddy: Locates the gas prices of the nearest gas stations. Oh man I LOVE LOVE this one!

And you?

I avoid apps like the plague until they have a pedigree.

The near-extinct specie I belong to actually use the phone to call people and send an occasional message.

I have a tetris game app, but other than that, I neither want nor need them.

I hardly use my phone to talk. It's texting or instant messaging. For me, it helps me keep in touch my Lecter in Egypt. For us, technology in all forms is a way for us to shrink the world just a little.  :)

I have the world's most simple cell phone (https://www.johnsphones.com/). You can only phone someone with it. What I love is its very long battery life (a standby time of 3 weeks!).

I sometimes play mindless games, hence:
Stupid zombies
Stupid Ninja
Both free apps, and very addictive.

My favorite apps are:
Parcels: makes keeping track of packages shipped to or from you, regardless of shipping service, very easy. (highly recommended if you ship things or buy from ebay a lot)
Weatherbug Elite
Netflix
Ringdroid
Call Blocker
Widgetsoid

Thats just a few, not mentioning the ones that require rooting your phone ;)

Wiggum:"You have that much faith in me, Homer?"
Homer:"No! Faith is what you have in things that don't exist. Your awesomeness is real."

"I was thinking that perhaps this thing called God does not exist. Because He cannot save any one of us. No matter how we pray, He doesn't mend our wounds.
