With the availability of literally tens of thousands of apps for Android-based smartphones, like the HTC Android camera phones, it’s no wonder it’s so hard to choose the best apps. Of course, “best” is a relative term in regards to need and preference, but here are some possibilities that can make life easier and give you access to information you probably use every day.
1. Google Voice
Gives you a number to hand out instead of your regular cell phone number, then offers features such as call blocking and filtering, do not disturb, text messaging voicemail transcription and more.
2. GO SMS Pro
Gives you advanced text messaging features and capabilities to make sending SMS messages a simpler, quicker process than it is with just the basic Android app.
3. The Weather Channel
Sure, there are other weather apps to choose from, but there’s no need to settle for second best when you can have the cream of the crop.
4. Barcode Scanner
Scanning a Quick Response Code (QR) is the quickest way to access apps and information you want to load on your smartphone and this app will let you do it quickly and easily.
5. Lookout
Anti-malware app that keeps your smartphone secure from spyware, malware and viruses. Includes automatic updates, allows you to back up your contacts online, and lets you easily restore to your phone if needed.
6. Facebook
If you’re addicted to Facebook like the rest of the world, you’ll want this app to help you stay updated and informed of what’s going on in your virtual world.
7. Easy Uninstaller
There will be plenty of times you install a new app only to find it’s not what you thought or it just doesn’t meet your needs. This Easy Uninstaller makes removing such unwanted apps a breeze and offers more info on installed apps than the default App Manager.
Give these apps, all free, a try and see if you don’t find they add functionality to your smartphone and help you better manage your life.
