Thread: 10 'best' Android applications?

  1. #1

    Default 10 'best' Android applications?


    Hi all,

    Thanks for taking the time to view this.

    I'm embarking on an android adventure. As part of my current contract with a secret employer I've been asked to identify the top 50 android applications (free or paid). I was wondering if you all could help me by giving me your 10 favorite, essential, best or most used applications for Android OS phones. Websites where I can find applications and search by popularity would be helpful as well. I am aware that the androidcommunity has a download section and have poked around in there, but wanted some authentic user feedback.

    Cheers,

    Android_Tester
