What is your favorite Application, and what is your favorite game? I work in a sprint (of course, lol) retail store, and am looking to put some more apps/games on my phone to show people when they ask about the app market. I think, so far, I get the most "oh wow!" from google sky maps, lol... What apps do you use on a daily basis? Or what game do you play on a daily basis? Thanks in advance for the input!

Game: ToonWarz
App: idk
i'd like to say wireless tether... but uhh.... haha
i think abduction world attack is my favorite game, i mean, you can't beat a jumping cow.
not sure about favorite app, but people seem to be really into sense ui. show it off by telling them about the widgets and stuff like the notification bar pull-down and multitasking. all my friends think cause of that, it's better than an iphone at least.
Game == Bust A Move!!!!!

I would agree with this. more than any individual app I use the widgets included in sence more than anything.
if I had to choose something I would have to say game and app in one would be "a world of photos" great way to kill time with people around the world also I have a 2 year old so I find myself letting her play a game called "Touch! for kids" great way to entertain a little one for a good 30 min at least.
defly agree w/ ToonWarz but I also throw Home Run Battle in there for those running 2.1..
Haven't tried toon warz...will have to give it a whirl!
App: Decide 4 Me <-- shameless plug or Reddit is fun
Game: Dope Wars
I still think GMote is awesome for streaming music/vids from my external hard drive (attached to my laptop at home) to my phone.
Best app ever is bonjour madame! If you ain't got it, better get on it!!! It's NSFW, SO WATCH OUT!
I have tried these so far
Twidroyd
Twidroyd was one of the first Android Twitter apps, and it has remained one of the best. The only complaint I’ve had is that Twidroyd isn’t as fast as it once was, but that hasn’t stopped it from being one of the most used apps. The Pro edition of Twidroyd was among the first to introduce new features like multiple accounts, themes, and media sharing, so users can count on strong features in a good interface.
Tweetcaster
The Tweetcaster interface is very pretty and the features are appealing. There are dark and light theme options, favorites, profile reading, filtering by user, and the ability to save searches. In fact, features are the saving grace of the app because it is one of the most-decorated of the comparison chart. No matter what I removed or added, Tweetcaster typically had it. I’m unable to get Twitter.com list support, but the app does let users create lists within the app. The free and pro editions are identical except that free version includes advertisements.
Plame
Full disclosure: I’m biased in my admiration for Plame. I love when apps incorporate beautiful designs, and few apps are as pretty Plame. Anyone who uses this app should opt for the Premium version, which adds theme support, color-coded multiple accounts, a widget, and threaded conversations. The great thing about Plame is that its constantly updating. The app needs to improve its speed to rival other apps, but Plame remains one of my favorites.
Great for: People who value good looks, lots of features, and constant updates
Am currently using both Tweetcaster PRO and Plume, Plume is really cool and I love the features but it is dirt slow with updating the tweets. Tweetcast PRO I just got so am still feeling it out fully but it is definitely faster then Plume in everyway...
So which twitter app would you recommend??? which do you use on a regular basis???
I always use Plume.. I've tried the others and I enjoyed Plume the best..
I use tweetcaster it seems to do what I like. I tried tweetdeck but i didn't like it at all. I am going to download plume and test it out now though
Best twitter app I've tried was seesmic, but I'm running twicca right now and its probably a tie. I tried all those others you listed and tweetdeck and they all suck.
Best cleanest and fastest I feel is seesmic, full featured is tweetcaster and twidroyd. Don't like plume at all anymore.

I haven't tried many of the other ones so I can't say. They just look "after marketish" to me tho..
I'm not a major "tweeter" I just follow a lot of the things I'm interested in and use it for updates.
I'm just coming to the conclusion that you really can't go wrong with any as there some who will go to bat for each twitter client. I for one paid for Tweetcaster and liked it and haven't tried another one since. This thread is making me want to try the others again though.
One question I do have though, which client has the best widget? That's the deal breaker for me.
Plume hands down
I hop between Plume and Twitdroyd but I use plume 90% of the time.
I've tried twitter, tweetdeck, seesmic and tweetcaster and keep coming back to tweetcaster. It's not as intuitive as some of the others, but I like the combination of appearance and features better than the others.
[edit] Ok, so I just checked out Plume, and it might become my new favorite. Thanks for the recommendation! [/edit]
I use Plume
i used plume for the longest. i loved it but i got tired of it so i am using tweetdeck now and i like this as well if i had two pick the better of the two i would say plume
Wow, I really thought Tweetdeck would be getting more love. It's by far my favorite. Plume is nice, but why not have Facebook, Buzz, and Foursquare all rolled in? The only thing I don't like about it is the widgets.
The 'Tweetdark' mod makes Tweetdeck that much better.
The official Twitter app, after one of the updates, got a lot better. But I still use Seesmic. Don't tweet much, myself, mainly for following various 'parties.' Very clean and quick. Perfect for myself.
My main gripe with Twitter apps is that none of them offer push notifications for mentions and replies; They all poll, some of them in as little as 3 minutes by default (Tweetcaster and I think Plume). I mean, polling for new tweets every THREE MINUTES BY DEFAULT?
That is absolutely insane. You can drain your battery in a few hours without even touching your phone if-- God forbid -- you forget to shut them down , or are an average user and simply don't know the effects of this on the battery.
Heck, I think even a poll of every 15 minutes is too much.
I've tried emailing them and I've gotten some responses but no changes--months later.
So personally this is my setup: Official Twitter app with no background updating, Plus Notifo Beta (Google it) and Push.ly. That way I get my mentions and replies pushed to my phone. I'm still testing it and some people say it's unrealiable, but I can always come back to regular SMS notifications.

Everything else I tried felt "aftermarketish". Except Seesmic. Clean, professional, fast and very, very functional. Used Plume for a while before I found it. Plume has now been deleted from my phone.
What are the best NFL apps out there?
by "best nfl app" what exaftly do you mean? what would you want in an nfl app?
So far I've used SportsTap, and Fox Sports. Neither is the best I'm sure, but ST is pretty good for certain things, and FS is good for others. Try a few and see what works for you.
Sent from my rough sketch of a Vibrant on a brick.
I use ScoreMobile. It does everything I need as far as keeping track of my favorite teams and scores.
I'm looking for something similar to the MLB at bat app for nfl. The ability to read latest news sorted by team thats updated constantly. Browse stats, standings, and maybe have a feature or two I didn't even know I need.
Hello guys!
I've been looking for an app that will help me keep track of the tv shows I'm watching... When the next episode is due on, what episodes i've already seen and an episode guide of the episodes so far.
I haven't been able to find one so far... Do any of you have any suggestions??
Thanks you

I love TV Show Favs as well. It is the best app of its kind that I have seen on either the Android or the iOS market. I love how it syncs all your favorites to "the cloud". The widget is great as well. I'm not that interested in keeping track of what I've already seen, but this will even do that as well. I also love that it tells me when one of my favorites has been canceled or is "on the bubble", but do wish it had better options to alert me for season/series premiers. Ones that I have tried that do that though what to totally fill up my Google Calendar with so many cable repeats and such that I had to delete it and spend a lot of time cleaning up my calendar.

That is what I used on the iPhone as well. Really liked it. But I had issues where I'd have to totally set it up from scratch on a number of occasions. It's a real pain when you had as many favorite shows as I did.

oh ya me too, Atleast on Tv Shows it allows me to backup and restore.
Hi there,
It arrived today and I was hopeful having owned the original. Aside from the lovely build and feel of it, I can't help but think that Tizen has ruined it a bit.
At the moment, I think its going back to Amazon, unless there's an easy way to do the following, and if anyone can pitch in, I'd be grateful:
Tasks/ToDos: I use Any.do which hasn't got any Tizen app/integration. Is there a good tasks app that syncs to an S5 and is usable like Any.do
Notes: I use Keep or Evernote and the lack of Evernote app is extremely disappointing, what am I going to use the camera with!? Is there anyway to use these services via an app? Or similar.
Maybe there's a way that this all just works with the built in Samsung apps on the S5 and I just haven't figured it out. Maybe the Gear Live was the better option...
No a good list/tasks app isn't there yet. There are many in the store, but all have issues i really don't like.
At the moment i use GearNotes and i created a note with my lists. So only viewing on the watch and not checkin the items.
