Recommended Apps for all types of Andriod Phones :
Games :
Brain Deluxe - the name should say something to everyone. Such brain training games are indeed shot at Nintendo's genius like mushrooms. The advantage of this incarnation of Android is that it's completely free! Graphically nice and put up with some nice games, makes the daily brain training fun, especially as his cell phone in itself, so every day has it.
Mechanics Touch - Here we have a game in the Lemmings-style to do with it, although this does something quite different. This time it's not true lemmings with different skills that enable one to bring them safely to the finish (although you'd just close with mechanics on that) but the game world, to manipulate. Is a nice pastime, and free with the Lite version!
Internet & Info
Traffic Information - Who much is the road will appreciate this app. As the name suggests it does, the program shows processed properly to all traffic reports in Germany. You can either go by road or display just the messages in the direct vicinity can. Here you can view everything on a map. Improvement here would still display the map. A direct connection to the installed maps app would be perfect.
Dolphin browser - the default browser of Android is indeed quite ok and comes with all the sites along well, more convenience, but the Dolphin browser. Tabs, gestures, shortcuts to various Google services and bookmark services etc make a great impression and also the speed is subjective and far better than the default browser. As with Android usual you can also set up Dolphin, of course, as the default, use it to access other apps on it. There is strong Adware or alternatively pay HD version it still, but I have not yet been tested.
Communications
Facebook - the Facebook app is yes on most Android phones pre-installed. I have now but finally they started to use and appreciate the advantages. Although it is not as mature as its counterpart on the iPhone, but thanks to integration with the Android-contact management is the utility value equal to an entirely different.
Nimbuzz - I used last time, still Meebo, I am now switched to Nimbuzz. The app can also handle the super important messengers, support in return for meebo but above all, Skype.
Twitter - unlike the iPhone has not Twitter for Android simply an existing app on the market shopped but an own developed. The succeeded so well that I liked all tested before the device was thrown. There is not enough just to support multiple accounts. Since I have only one scratched me not. For this I am pleased with the connection to the Android contact management and so features like the display of tweets on the map and send the widget.
