Haha.... but I have no big ego... I'm just participating in the xda-community....by posting this thread.... these apps I thought were very useful... since I find my self using them all the time!... and though I'd share my top 5 with my fellow N7 owners.... you don't have to use any of them if you don't too... as everyone has their own opinion and is different...

Nice video. Thanks for the suggestions. The only one that makes me scratch my head is the rotation one. Why not just recommend an alternative launcher such as Nova that gives you rotation capability plus a whole lot more?

Sorry let me be more specific. While googling good apps to download for the Nexus 7 most lists are these and popular android apps that everyone already knows about.. I was hoping to see an extended list with some more apps that may not be on everyone's radar.

Why does this app show up as incompatible? It's a tablet app it should work!
Anywhere I can just gets the apk to try it out?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Just because it's a tablet app does not automatically equate to compatibility. It could be that the app is dependent on a 10.1" screen or rear camera.
That being said, it seems that the tablet app is far less polished than the mobile app anyway. I wouldn't even bother with it.

Problem with that is apps would get unjust negative reviews from idiots that install apps that aren't compatible with their hardware. Not directing that at you personally... just something that I've seen happen a few too many times.

I agree with the OP in that I would like to see filters replaced by advisements but your point is well taken.
The app developer did not write in the resources for all sizes of devices. Its in a manifest type file that play store reads. The play store does not monitor or control apps or app quality and rather its up to the developer to specify what device its built for.
So short of starting arguments. Email developer of the app. That is the only one who can help.
Good luck.
I did actually, I got a response "we have no information on that item at this time, sorry for the inconvenience".
I know why they filters are in place but it can be annoying. To me a nexus device is the android standard, any application that is relevant should show up in the market, but it doesn't. It's also frustrating in the case of upgrading, like when I upgraded from my aging Samsung Captivate to my HTC Vivid that has twice the power, and yet a fraction of compatibility. I seriously have games that I played on my captivate that won't show for the Vivid. So what your saying is a single core Galaxy S phone with 512mb of ram and an aging power vr sgx540 can play Nova 2 just fine but a Qualcomm Snapdragon s3 with a dual core processor and a gig of ram and an adreno 230 gpu can't? Doesn't make much sense to me.
I am using that as an example but it is a true one. I no longer game on my phone as I use the nexus now but it does seem ridiculous that upgrading to a better phone or tablet can break your compatibility.

I have the Note II and I'm getting a tablet but I'm not too up to speed on the tablet scene.
Anyone got any suggestions on which tablet out right now would be the best choice.
I'm thinking the Nexus 10 or the Galaxy Note 10.1 any other ones I should consider? Out of the two I listed which would you pick? I'm OK with spending up to $600, so the price really would not be a deciding factor.

If you like your phone to always have the latest version of android then go with the nexus 10. Otherwise I would go with the Note 10.1 or one of the Asus tablets.

I have the gt2 10.1, its a great tablet for the price. I would've like the note 10.1 but I managed to score 2 brand new tab 2 10.1's with 3 year extended warrantys 2 32gb micro sds and 2 notebook cases for less than 1 note 10.1 at xmas time from walmart. They're now 349 there. I got em at xmas on sale bogo at 299.

+1 on the galaxy tab 2 10.1. They also have an ir blaster on the wifi only which allows you to use it as a remote. Although most find it a gimmick I love it. My model number is gt-p5113.

I also had the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 and now the Galaxy Note 10.1...fyi the Note 10.1 also does the remote IR blaster thing and it works very well, though I don't use it as I already have a bad-ass programmable (and fully programmed) touch screen remote control for my entertainment system. but it's there. and it does work nicely.
Yeah it works great with dish network I can browse my guide and set dvr and preview right from my tab even stream my dvr recordings over wifi

You laugh but I got my daughter the nabi2 because I felt it was future proof. It has better specs than either tablet you are looking at, plus it accepts an sd card.
It does require rooting to get play store, but once you do it is wide open. If you have a kid, get this tablet. If not, it's up to you

I said thanks for the laugh because the tablet is for me, a 38 year old, 6 foot, 200 pound male. I don't really see me carrying the nabi 2 around and I have no yong kids.
As far as specs, I looked them up and I'm pretty sure the Nexus 10 and Galaxy Note 10.1 both have better.

Other than being a multi forum app(not that I read any other forum nowadays) the interface looks better. I wouldn't buy at full price, just as I didn't buy version 2, but at a discounted price, I would give it a try

Thanks for the replies both. This is really the only forum I follow daily, I'll probably give Tapatalk a go though anyway.
I bought it on sale and I switched back to the old one. It feels like they went with pretty over functional.
Also, It feels like I'm not on a forum. More like I'm reading nerd Facebook statuses.

If you like paranoid android phablet mode you'll be more inclined to like the it. It's not meant for a phone display- and actually it is the replacement for their tablet app. I bought it because it's on sale for the price of a can of pop and maybe I'll get a tablet some day.
i used this entire time the beta, and apparently Tapatalk 4 it still has this bug remain from tapatalk 2
like when you scroll down it sometimes shows thesame block of threads twice.. or messages in threads..
Sometimes in Subscriptions only the threads I subbed to appear, and not the main page for example Nexus 4.
Also not all strings of text are translated which smells like beta.
New UI, same crap. But it's useful enough for me so I use it. Better than using browser for sure.
Love this App. If you are active with many different forums, this is the best app for you.
I hate the new layout. I'm going to keep using the beta version until I can't.
I bought version 2 long ago and I hoped that it would be upgraded so nobody would have to buy it again. I did anyway since it was only a buck but I really am disappointed with it.

But I think it's cause it's a different layout. It's like the older SwiftKey. You had to buy separate versions. But now they have it all in one which I like.
