Title: What are your best Apps for the Android operating system? (smart Phone)
Post by: Special T on June 23, 2013, 08:19:53 AM: It has been a few years since I've had a smart phone. I just got the Samsung Rugby Pro with the Android operating system. I would like to know what you think are the best most useful apps for your phone. I saw Loki the other day and he happens to have the same phone. When i looked at just the free apps there seems to be several makers for things i need.
Some things i know i'll want are GPS mapping, Craigslist, gas finder(mostly need diesel) etc.

Astrid is a good task list (for keeping track of when things are due)
GasBuddy is a gas finder

Google Sky Map is fun :)

I'll think of some more later :)

The camera is pretty decent in these as well. Took this today.

I also use Marinetraffic.com which gives positions and tracks plus other info for most commercial ships/tugs and ferries using Puget Sound. Also some larger pleasure craft have transponders. It is nice when out there in the fog since I don't have radar.
