So I ditched my Blackberry and got the Galaxy S3. With my ability to have access to a whole new world of apps...what do you recommend?
I want to hear aviation apps, photo editing, flight tracking, WEATHER, personal assistant stuff, or whatever else you recommend and live by.
Don't worry, already got Flight Control. ;)
planefinder sucks for android. I've talked to them about upgrading it like the Iphone, but they said there are too many versions for android and they don't plan to make any changes.
Hi Phil
Not really aviation but some I think are cool -
Droid light which turns on your phones light and acts as a flashlight.
mycityway - best app with NYC info, traffic cameras, transit, it does have an airport flight tracker
Advanced task killer - saves me huge battery times
Live ATC - think it cost like $4 listen to control towers
Safe neighborhood - good to see if sex offenders are moving nearby
I run iOS, but here are a few I know of that are available for Android. First off, RadarScope for unfiltered, almost real-time radar images. It's a bit pricey in my eyes at $10, but the data is worth it. I also like Flightaware for a flight tracker, and it's free! And I'd second LiveATC.net for $3. Hope this helps a little.
FlightRadar24 (Way better than PlaneFinder, well worth the buy)
Live ATC (I rarely use my actual scanner anymore)
Evernote (Stores all kinds of useless information :D )
Facebook (Doesn't suck like in iOS)
Twitter (Doesn't suck like in iOS)
AntTek Explorer (With the SMB plugin Windows shares can be accessed over WLAN)
Airport Distance (Great at parties when someone makes outlandish statements about distances of places around the world)
