ANDROID APPS

11/29/13 - Here is a list of my favorite apps. How do they make the list? When I factory reset my phone, these are the apps I reinstall. Email me if you can think of one I should add to the list.

 

- Call Confirm. Do you hate butt dialing? Me too. This app inserts an "are you sure you want to call so-and-so?" step between calling and dialing. It's saved me the embarrassment of many butt dials. Superior program.

- chomp SMS. I like being able to create templates and easily insert them into my text messages. I can create a template with my email addresss, home address, links to specific pages on my business web site, etc. Then it takes three clicks to insert a template into a text message.

- Business Calendar Pro. I never thought I'd get weaned off Outlook calendar, but this app has done it. This is the only Android app I've paid for, and it's the best $5 or so I've spent in ages. Look this one up on Google Play for details.

- Business Tasks. This is the tasklist companion to BC Pro mentioned above. Two parts of the same puzzle.

- Call Track. This one saves all my phone call history to my Google Calendar.

- Google Drive. I'm a bit jaded on Google due to privacy, but Google Drive still is very useful. Until I find a program to replace G Drive, I'm sticking with it.

- GasBuddy. Do you want to know how badly you're being gouged when it comes to gasonline prices? Then move to Bloomington, Indiana, install this program, and check within a 60-mile radius.

- K-9 Mail. Can't say why I'm hooked on this one except to say that I've been using it forever. It's free, so give it a try. If you don't like it you can always uninstall it.

- My Tracks. Sure i'm providing a blueprint for electronic monitoring of my every step, but even so, this is a useful app for keeping track of the business miles I drive in my car. When i don't need to do this I'll unistall the app.

- PDANet+. When i run this program on my phone and simulateously on my laptop AND connect my phone to laptop via USB, it acts as a router. So I can have internet connection wherever I go via my cell phone. I have an unlimited data plan, so for me doing this is no big deal.

- X-plore. File manager. Can anyone recommend a better one? I hope so -- email me!!!!

 

I have a few others that are business-specific so I'll leave them off the list. I can't give away all my competitive advantages, after all!
