List of "good" apps

My list from a few other threads, but very relevant here since everyone is probably wondering what "app" to get.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AnAJoa0-ynONdGJiVDRSQ0p4VGtCaklESmtEbkJzNUE
edit: you guys can add to it ^_^

Great list, a few I couldn't live without:
Badass Battery, 4.7
Mobi Calculator, 4.8
FX File Explorer, 4.7
N7 Player, 4.7
Gtasks, 4.5
DIGI Clock Widget, 4.6
Palmary Weather, 4.5
GasBuddy, 4.6
YouAreHere, 4.7
Navfree, 3.8
Widgetsoid2, 4.6

I've found some of the widgets by this dev are excellent and he supports them very well if you mail him.
The Pure Grid calendar widget has options for tablet size widgets, multiple calendars, colour coding etc.
Also imho HDR Camera+ should be up there with ZoomFX
OP - amazing list!

That is a very clean and comprehensive list of apps you have OP. Thanks for posting... I am definitely going to try some of them out.

Has anyone tried Autodesk Sketchbook Pro on the N7?

Here's my Android tablet list of "best of breed" apps:
GTasks - syncs with Google Notes, has reminders, great widgets. Augments my calendar for many things. Free.
Dark Knight - good tablet chess app. Free+no ads.
AndroXplorer - first-rate file explorer with CIFS support. Free (minor advert), but I bought Pro with my Play credit. Better than all the others I've tried and has proper tablet interface.
SuperSU - fine-grained control of root permissions. Free+no ads, Pro has some sweet features, bought it.
AdAway - prevents ads from even downloading. Probably the biggest performance booster you can get. Free, no ads. This is one of the killer apps that will hook you on Android.
System Tuner - you won't believe the crap that starts up automatically. Fix it with this free app (minor ads). Pro is worth it.
AnkiDroid - Can't believe it's free w/o ads. Flashcards app to study nearly anything, many study decks available. Better than the $25 Anki iPad app which I bought.
Cool Reader - ebook reader, lots of useful features. Free and ad-free.
Aldiko Pro - slick reader, works with most formats, worth the $3.
Apps I'd like but which don't work yet:
Moon+ Reader (incl Pro) is broken on Jelly Bean, doesn't show text. When it works I'll buy Pro again.
Encore Learning Platform - free, no-ads, flashcards app.

If I could have clicked the "Thanks" icon 10 times for supplying us with this great database I would have. But I couldn't so THANK YOU X 10!

MX Player is a sweet video player.
ADW launcher is still a good launcher. I use it on my ICS Transformer. Apex is my favorite though.
WiFi File Explorer is easily the most handy app for transferring data between devices.
XDA App!!!
Rom Manager
Word Feud - online scrabble clone
Android Pro Widgets for scrollable Twitter and Facebook
Thumb Keyboard
Delver - awesome 8bit Dungeon crawling FPS
Sixaxis PS3 Bluetooth Controller pairing.
Tango for video chatting
Netflix and Redbox
Deadly Dungeons - another dungeon crawling game I found today.
Bluetooth OnCall - Enables/Disables BT for calls. Great for headset users to save battery.
DailyHoroscope - its always spot on.
Notification Toggle for CM style notification menu power toggles.
I the above apps are my core apps.
Also my transformer used Polaris Office which I really liked too.
Some apps were mentioned above. I think most weren't mentioned.

Any chance we can get a column on the spreadsheet specifically to indicate if the app is using Holo and/or follows the ICS design guidelines?

add to the top as a comment and we'll see feedback i suppose? Can you guys edit the document? says view only even though I try changing it

I was able to add a few in.

So, for some reason I can only pull this doc up at work. Now my problem is I can see where it's seperated into sections, but the apps aren't organized into their respective sections, they are in alphabetical order. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Josh

Just in case anyone is having trouble with Apex as I have been (My Library widget doesn't work for ex), Nova seems to be working a little better.

As a flasher I always end up losing one or two desired programs along the way..
Well done..

Nexus 7 App Video Reviews

Hi all,
I make video reviews, tutorials and app review for the Nexus 7 and I thought you might appreciate my app-snack reviews on the best Nexus 7 apps to get. Each review is between 1-2 minutes so they're a good snapshot of what the app is all about and why is a good Nexus 7 app.
I'll be updating this thread on a regular basis so enjoy and thanks for watching

Another app review today on a keyboard that can split depending on whether it's in portrait or landscape

The Amazon App Store has gone global so I thought it deserved a review:

Thankyou
Hi
Many thanks for your tutorial on the Nexus 7. I have now placed my request with the wife for one of these for xmas.
Could I ask, I have a Kindle which uses the PDF format, can I transfer my library to the Nexus 7.
I have some downloaded films in AVI format. Is it possible to transfer these and view on the Nexus 7. When on holiday I transfer films to a usb memory stick and view. Does the Nexus have a facility for a memory stick or a slot for any other memory card.
Again many thanks for your video's and roll on xmas.
Regards

You can download a Kindle app for the Nexus 7 so I guess they should work within the app.
You can transfer files onto your nexus 7 from a computer by plugging it into the USB port. To transfer films from a USB stick to a computer you will need something called Nexus Media importer from googleplay.

This is a compliation video of 10 apps for android tablets.

My fav android/tablet game. Stick Cricket:

Another one my favourite games today and a little more universal than cricket. Super Stickman Golf:

They call it Major Mayhem. I call it Time Crisis for touchscreens

Another app review this evening SongPop. It's all the range, but I needed someone's help to explain why:

My videos:
about launcher with more than 9 differents

I've been wanting to review this for a while. Only just got around to it. Nexus Media Importer:

There are now a couple of options when it comes to watching the BBC iPlayer on Jellybean (Nexus 7). See the options and take your pick:

Here are the best widgets for your android device when using facebook and twitter:

You might think that Ultimate Rotation Control would be obsolete now that Jellybean 4.1.2 has fixed the rotation screens. Well you'd be wrong because if you like things the way they were you'll need this app:

Just Found This. Seems Like A Good Idea, But The Play Link Is Down.

yeh....play link is down
has anybody else found it?

Split Screen?

Is there an app for the gnex so we can use two apps on 1 window? :3

As far as I know, that feature was only implemented by Samsung in their Note line of devices, via their TouchWiz.

cornerstone exists. Although every build I have seen with it hasn't run very well. I have not seen much development with it since the ICS days.

As for their prime example of how neat it is, (watch a video while doing anything else) just go grab super video. It's a lot better on tablets, but it's still a super imposed, resizeable, movable video player. Works YouTube videos, too. Does the job for my interests in multi tasking.

Nexus 4 can Mount&Blade too!

As you now, Mount&Blade Warband is limited to Tegra 4 only (Tegra Shield), but with help of GLTools we can open it on Nexus 4. Even when we start the game we can't do almost anything without hardware buttons. While using GameKeyboard I was able to play with onscreen buttons.
Here's what I've done:
GLTools - fake CPU/GPU from template Tegra 4 for Warband (1st screen)
View attachment 2685752
GameKeyboard - Choose Touchscreen->gamepad and check joystick mode option (2nd & 3rd screen)
View attachment 2685751View attachment 2685753
Start M&B with onscreen buttons - if everything set up correctly you shouldn't have any problem with analog sticks.

This is awesome love this game. Do you think it would be possible to play using a ps3 controller?

Nice work
keep going.

I remember this nice game, it would be very cool to play it on the phone/tablet

I seem to get very blurry text, and black/no textures, any idea how to fix this?
Edit: Nvm, just need to make sure gltools installs the texture plugin correctly.
As a second question, any tips on making the game have better fps?
