IF YOU'VE FOUND THIS POST, OR ANY OF THESE APPS USEFUL, BE SURE TO HIT THE THANKS BUTTON!
If you know any unique or useful applications, games or widgets please suggest them in this thread so I can check them out. If I think they're good, I'll add them to the list.
*NOTE* - If you wish to know what the best app is regarding your needs, ask in this thread and I, or others, will be able to help you out.
So, if you want to know what the best music player is, ask here and I'll suggest the best ones available.
If there are any apps that you feel shouldn't be in this list, please let me know and suggest a better one. I can then test it and maybe add it to the list, in place of the other one.
If you don't suggest a better app, I won't change anything.

Must Have Apps on the Galaxy SIII
Due to popular demand via PMs, I've decided to add a slot to this thread to display some of the best games we can get on our Android device.
As with the app list above, if there's a great game you'd like to be added to this list, let me know and I may well add it in
1. Pool Break Lite - If you like to play pool, snooker, billiards etc. on the go then this is a great app you. There are a few different variations to play in either single player or multiplayer online mode and even more variations if you buy the pro version.
2. FIFA 12 - This game speaks for itself. It's the latest mobile version of the FIFA franchise and is easily the best so far, with it showing vast improvements. There's a load of different cups and leagues to play through and with great graphics with no lag in the slightest.
3. World Series Of Poker - Probably the best game from EA (in my opinion). If you like to play poker I totally recommend this game. You can play Texas Holdem and Omaha in either cash games, tournaments or play for a WSOP bracelet as the main prize. Guest mode is now available for no login from Facebook is needed.
4. iAssociate2 - This is a good choice if you prefer a bit of a brain tester. iAssociate2 is a word association game you have to figure out which words and phrases are associated to each other. Sound easy? Give it a try and you can soon find out differently.
5. Need For Speed Most Wanted - Another brilliant addition to the EA family, Most Wanted finally brings one of the best racing experiences to Android. It's a brilliant game all round but the only thing it's lacking, in my opinion, is 'free roam' mode. But apart from that, it brings brilliant graphics and flawless gameplay.
6. Grand Theft Auto III - Grand Theft Auto III was a crime game which changed the future of gaming and is amazing to play on the go with our Androids. The full console game with great graphics, full features and surprisingly no lag considering it's such a huge game. Countless hours of gameplay, HD quality resolution and visually stunning graphics make this a must for our devices.

Must Have Apps on the Galaxy SIII
The idea to add widgets into this thread aswell was an idea taken from Goku80 and I hope you lot like it.
So, the list in this post is strictly for widgets. I'll add some widgets myself as a base, but as always feel free to suggest some of your favorite widgets and they may make it into this list.
1. Beautiful Widgets - Beautiful set of Widgets containing clock widget, clock and weather widget, weather widgets, date widgets and toggle widgets with skins/themes support!
2. Fancy Widgets - Personalize your Android home screen with highly customizable clock widgets, weather widgets, home (clock & weather) widgets, forecast widgets, and more with lots of customization options.
3. Ultimate custom widget (UCCW) - If you enjoy customizing the look of your homescreen then this is pretty much a MUST HAVE app for you. It allows the user to create their own pure custom clocks with a near endless array of options to customize it how they'd like. However you want it, you can make it with UCCW.
4. Desktop VisualizeR - Here's another really useful widget if you love to customize your screens. This gives you the ability to make shortcuts and widgets with any image you specify, rather than just the default logos. You can also use this app to give apps a custom icon of your own, which is handy if your icon design doesn't currently exist.
5. Minimalistic Text - Minimalistic Text is a widget app that displays information in a minimalistic way. It can be configured to display time, date, battery and weather information. The layout of the widget is highly customizable throughout.
6. Eye In The Sky Weather - This is for all those who like their weather clean, simple and beautiful. The app includes 12 of the best weather icon sets and the ability to add your own icon sets.

I've been digging Gameboid and Nesoid. Snesoid and psx4droid are nice but too many onscreen buttons if you don't have a controller.

Notifier pro plus---gives you repeat notifications for apps you choose. great for when you get certain events or notifications you dont want to miss
auto wifi toggle-- lets you set up times through out the day that it triggers wifi. if there is no connection with in a set amount of time it turns back off. great for people who like to be connected to wifi. saves battery because wifi isnt always on.
screen on app that keeps the screen on when in apps you choose. great for well pretty much every app that you want the screen to stay on
screen caster app that records the android screen. great for if you want to show a but to a dev or show an app to a friend. you can record the screen, it can also record your voice so you can explain whats going on. you can then load it to youtube.
droid wall great security app that actually works. when set up it block incoming and outgoing data connections. with this app you can ensure that none of your data is leaving your phone with out you knowing. note that if one of your apps isnt working you may need to check what you have set up.
Lux auto brightness a screen brightness app that works very wekk when set up properly. helps me save battery. also great for at night with a loer brightness. the screen no longer hurts my eyes when i first turn it on.
Smart screen off good app for turning off the screen. uses the proximity sensor to turn off the screen if its covered for a certain period of time. great so you dont pocket dial!
this is just some of my collection that ive been gathering over the years.
most of these app are paid apps but trust me they are good ones.
hope you like them!!!!

If you want a security app, how about Cerberus?

LBE Privacy Guard is a great security app as well. Allows you to manage and change any permission on any app. For example, if some apps want GPS (Angry Birds Space) and will automatically turn it on for location based ads, you deny it right off the bat.
Anytime you install an app from the store, a notification will allow you to manage the permissions for that app before you ever launch it.
Another one would be Avast. A security app that does all kinds of things I don't even know what they are. Have the ability to install at kernel level if rooted too, which could be beneficial.

Zedge should probably be in there somewhere.
Never really used romtoolbox.. I've never had a reason..
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

I'm not gonna be adding any lockscreens or launchers to the list because there's already tons of threads on each forum that go into detail about them. You're all welcome to post them in your own list as a couple of you have
I'm not too sure on which security app I'll add yet because I haven't really tried many yet.
I'm also undecided about a wallpapers app at the moment. I used to use Zedge until I found out about PicSpeed HD Wallpapers and I've used it since. Then there's Wallbase HD Wallpapers that FrameCityJackal mentioned aswell.
Any other wallpaper apps I should check out?

Best launcher?

The wear mini launcher works, but doesn't wrap to the circular screen and has some stuff on the bottom open. Is there any better apps out there? Thanks.
Sent from my LG-LS980 using XDA Free mobile app

Considering that the 360 is the only wear device with a round screen and has only been on the market for less than 2 days, give the devs a week or 2 to update their apps.
Other wise wear mini launcher functions great.

I'm using swipifiy, which is supposed to work for the moto 360 specifically, but it doesn't work correctly.

Have you tried the latest version?
I am in the developers community, people say it works.
The developer is really open to comments and feedback.

All good, wear mini launcher is updated to fix the issue. works fine on the moto 360 now.

Bubble Cloud Launcher
I recommend Bubble Cloud Launcher for several reasons:
best use of space, least amount of swiping needed to find an app
watch-face mode: works much like a real launcher on the mobile phone. Press the button to go back to the launcher.
Screen touch guard (in watch-face mode)
Contact cloud: call / text / email your favorite contacts
Full control over the contents and the layout of the bubble clouds with on-phone editor/cloud layout designer
Runs smoothly and elegantly on the Moto360
Very battery friendly, doesn't even appear in the Battery chart
Same bubble clouds can be used on the phone as widgets

Total Commander ADB plugin installs any APK :)

Hi.
I don't know if this was already discussed, but Total Commander ADB plugin + BT debugging allows to install any APK on Moto 360 I've just installed ES File Explorer & Antutu, both work. ES File Explorer has full access to SD Card & working photo gallery.
Strange...
P.S. Antutu Score: Moto 360 - 4498 ... I wonder if Towelroot would work

Nice find

How do you get adb access via Bluetooth. I can't find the right plugin.

Hi!
Some interesting findings so far: the single mechanical button on Moto 360 is, actually, standard android "Home" button , while swiping from left to right - is not "app closing", but simple "Back". Android Wear - is just a launcher, like Google Home or Trebuchet.
I'm in search now for working "normal" launcher, Nova & CM11 Trebuchet force close, Google Home requires Google Search that force closes also.

Just got my Moto 360 today It looks like Android Wear will force close with anything that has an ActionBar.
From the logcat:
You cannot combine swipe dismissal and the action bar.

If this is the case shouldn't, in theory, Apex work if the ActionBar is removed or hidden?

ok. i found something too!!!
Go to settings-about- and hit constantly the build number so you can become a developer.
After go back to developer options and there you can find STAY AWAKE WHEN CHARGING and you can turn it off or on. Below are settings to turn on the bluetooth debugging

Smartwatch 2 with Huawei

Huawei and other Chinese manufactures have a lot of preinstalled apps and system features. One of them is power management. This will kill any suspicious background process and so you will not be able to communicate with the watch.

Seem nice But can you provide the actionable notification like we have in Wear system ?
Ex : Calendar (Calengoo) have snooze option (Snz 5, Snz 10, Snz 30......) and we have not this option on all notification system for the SW2. Aquamail Extension offer the "Mark as read", it is nice but just for this app.

Sorry I dont understand the question. Are you refering to options on the notification? Every notification you read on the smartwatch has 2 options. One is to dismiss the notification from the device and smartwatch(delete basically), and one is to open it like you would have clicked it. For example your can open a Messenger notification and when you unlock the phone the app si already present on the screen, ready to type.
Also "mark as read" is present on the app and can be used for multiple smartwatch notifications.

Ex from Calengoo : Notification options are :
- Dismiss
- Open in phone
- Snooze 5min
- Snooze 10 min
- Snooze 15 min
(all snooze that you set in Calengoo app)
On Wear or on "pebble notification Center" I have all this option. On SW2 I have only the basic notification :
- Dismiss
- Open in phone.
For Aquamail for exemple, on standard app notification for SW2 I have also standard notification
- Dismiss
- Open in phone
but not a "mark as read"
so we can dismiss the Aquamail phone notification but the mail is not marked "as read" in mail app.
We can also set to have "archive" in mail notification option. We have all this option in Wear but not in all SW2 notification app

Installed and tested your app. It do not works, when read or dismiss notification from the SW2 with your app, the Android phone notification are not dismissed et stay on phone status bar. So app do not do the job and can not be used for notification system on SW2
Echofon Pro, Stopwatch&Timer+ -> dismiss from watch and even with "Erase" on watch -> notification stay on phone.
Maybe you can correct before I leave a review on PlayStore ?

Hello,
Sure we can talk on skype and see whats going on there. First I would recommend to enable brutal mode from the settings window.
Also, there is a option that will NOT allow notifications if the screen is turned on.
There are some apps on the notification screen that don't have any action assigned to it.
But to dismiss everything should work.
Please provide more info about the android system version and the device you are using
PM with your skype and I'll add you
Thanks

Sony xperia Z5 compact android 5.1.1
allow notification with screen off
brutal mode on.
but nothing to do with dismiss android notification
All smartwatch can erase notification from phone status bar, otherwise no need smartwatch
Just try timer app : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sportstracklive.stopwatch
start a timer, you have notification et dismiss from SW2, notification still present on phone.
Try other notification app, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.shuisky.notify do the same and notification dismissed also from phone, it is like this app must works

What you are asking cannot be developed so easy.
I tested the stop watch app and the notification that its using is custom. So the notification system for the smartwatch will work for all standard notifications from the device. It cannot guaranty that every app can be supported.
But I'll give it a try. Basically you want the dismiss option from the phone notification to be accessible from the watch. I'll do a update in a few days

Yes simply dismiss phone notification when erase/dismiss from the SW2.
SW2 system have serious issue with notification maybe to old ? other watch : Wear, pebble, Samsung Gear...can dismiss phone notification in same time dismiss watch notification.

Got my SW2 since three months and it has some flaws with my P8.
The SW2 app sometimes does not launch despite the fact I protected it from the RAM optimiser, some apps won't launch and/or install, notifications sometimes won't sync (Probably because of Informer...), watch won't connect to phone until I reset it sometimes...
That's quite sad because it's an amazing watch. Because of that I might get the Huawei Watch in a near future.

Always on display Note 7

Hi,
For those who are already lucky to own this phone. Can you tell me something about the features of the always on display.
1. Are third party notifications (esp. Whatsapp) supported
2. Is it possible after tapping on the notification to get a preview
3. Is it possible to dismiss a notification and/or to go directly to the app of the notification
Cheers

I haven't checked for Whatsapp specifically, but the always-on display shows me notifications from Pushbullet, Nine (exchange email), DS Cloud and others. I guess it works with any app.
Taping the notifications does nothing - or i missed something in the settings.
Double-tapping them opens the corresponding app (at the appropriate place; example, the email that triggered the notification) (but first of course you have to unlock the phone if you have a secure lockscreen set).

I haven't checked for Whatsapp specifically, but the always-on display shows me notifications from Pushbullet, Nine (exchange email), DS Cloud and others. I guess it works with any app.
Taping the notifications does nothing - or i missed something in the settings.
Double-tapping them opens the corresponding app (at the appropriate place; example, the email that triggered the notification) (but first of course you have to unlock the phone if you have a secure lockscreen set).

Okay it looks that Samsung has listened to the request for S7 user. Nice to hear that 3rd party apps are now displayed.
That I dont get a preview of the message and can't mark it as unread is little bit dissapointing. It looks that I still have to use a 3rd party app for notifications. It looks that nothing beats Moto Display so far

I believe th e always on display stays th ere for up to an hour after you right a note. You can choose different themes.
