I upgraded to my Android device HTC Desire S from my Symbian S60 running N73 and it changes the way you interact with the mobile. I am now making deliberate efforts to not let my phone become an inseparable obsession.
Over the course of few months that I have had this device I have installed and deleted plenty of apps, many are productive and others are just fun. I am listing here some of my favourite apps with links to Google Play (formerly known as the Android Market)
So here it goes:
1. BitTorrent Remote:
First of all you must have your computer running with BitTorrent to make use of this app. With this app you will not have to email the link of any torrent you had found on internet the internet. Simply get the link in this app and the download begins right away in your PC. Setting up the remote functionality is easy too.
Download BitTorrent Remote2. CamScanner:
This is a life saver app. Take a photo and convert it to a pdf file. This app also auto-enhances the photo saturating the blacks and whites of the document making it appear more clear. There is also in-app function to upload the scanned files to DropBox.Download CamScanner
3. DiceShaker 3D:
This is just for fun app that would be practically of no use unless you wish to play a Board Game and don't have dices to play it. This is the best Dice Rolling app on the market. The looks are pleasing and the soft sounds are soothing to the ears. Plus it can make use of the G-sensors to let the dices roll and fall with the gravity.Download DiceShaker 3D
4. GPS Status & Toolbox:
Know your GPS co-ordinates with the help of this app. It has a small number of important features besides just displaying co-ordinates which come in handy to keep records while travelling. Note that you will have to rely on some other app to keep the records since the above app tells and shares co-ordinates only.Download GPS Status & Toolbox
5. Instant Heart Rate:
Place your finger before the lens of your phone's camera and this app can calculate your heart rate. Besides it also displays a graph that moves to your heart beat. Now do remember that this is not a medical device and the score could be a little inaccurate. Still this is a fun app to impress your friends and family.Download Instant Heart Rate
6. Shake-Screen Off:
This app has received poor ratings because users couldn't figure out how to uninstall it even though the app's description clearly mentions the procedure. Now this app can switch off your screen by just a shake of your hand. It also has option to set the sensitivity level to suit your needs. This app saves a button press to switch off the screen and also looks impressive. Word of Caution: This app has AirPush Notification ads. Still it is worth installing despite the spammy ads.Download Shake-Screen Off
7. Smart Measure:
A bit complex to set up but the measurements of height and distance this app can make are fairly accurate. Try this app and other cool apps from this developer.Download Smart Measure
8 Ulysse Gizmos:
Many attractive gadgets including a compass and GPS co-ordinate display. Has a clean and attractive interface. However, I haven't been able to put this app into any productive use.Download Ulysse Gizmos
9 Ulysse Speedometer:
An Android device could scan documents, measure heartbeats, measure length and distance of objects, tell GPS co-ordinates & now it can also function as a Odometer. Ulysse Speedometer can measure your speed & distance covered while you are driving your car with the help of GPS. Select the HUD option and place the screen facing skywards to get the car odometer to reflect the display.Download Ulysse Speedometer
10. Wordnet Dictionary:
A simple dictionary with offline access, which many dictionaries don't offer. If you are connected to the internet, this dictionary will offer a voice clip enunciating the word.Download Wordnet Dictionary
Well that's it folks! I hope you guys will enjoy these apps like I do and do leave your comments below.
