I’m now a android lover after switching from a iPhone 3gs to a Samsung galaxy S 6 months ago.

My current apps look something like this.
75 total, 68 free (90%), 7 paid (9%) | Total Size: 138MB
Total spent: $14.99

You can view the list of my installed apps here.

Here i will note some must have apps for your droid and a few other cool apps as well. Im not going to write an essay about each of them, just list them and hopefully you can download them and see how good they are for yourself.

Top 10 Apps

  1. Handcent SMS. – The best sms application ever.
  2. SMS2PC – Probably the most used app. If your in front of your computer alot, this makes your phone like a chat client, however you can reply to people via sms from a chat screen on your computer. Well worth the $4

  4. Switch pro Widget – The widget is best for your homescreen. Currently mine displays battery %, wireless toggle, blutooth toggle, vibrate/silent/loud toggle, a flashlight, 3g toggle, and a shutdown and restart button.
  5. Bible – Best bible app with heaps of offline version such as ESV for viewing straight from your phone.
  6. Isyncr – This app enables you to sync itunes to your android phone just like a iphone. You can also sync over wifi without a cord!
  7. Poweramp – An awesome music player, has a 30day demo but costs a big $5 for this one.
  8. Gtasks – If you use google tasks, this is a great widget that keeps your tasks in sync
  9. Pure Calendar Widget – If you use your calendar alot this is a must. So customisable and can be a widget you wont know what to do with yourself.

How to get more storage on DropBox for free!

DropBox – Dropbox allows you to sync your files online and across your computers automatically. Dropbox automatically syncs when new files or changes are detected.
Imagine finishing a pricelist excel document, saving it to your computer, then your out at the shops and a customer rings you. You can look up the spreadsheet on your phone and retrieve it. Alternatively you could be at the airport, open up your laptop (providing its connected to the internet), the spreadsheet appears in your documents as its synced and away you go!
Dropbox has 2GB of online storage for free, with up to 100GB available to paying customers. For more info on dropbox check out these 8 top tips here!

Sign up to drop box!

Here is some tips on increasing that free 2gb storage.

Referrals – EDU email addresses get double referral credit!

Whenever someone signs up with Dropbox through a link you sent them, Dropbox will credit both you and the new user 250 MB of free storage. Fair enough. But that would mean 4 referrals for every 1 GB. Quite a task.

In hopes of annihilating its competition, Dropbox recently announced that anybody with a .EDU email address, namely college students, can earn double the referral credit, or 500 MB. Life’s pretty sweet sometimes when you’re a college student. Now, you would need only 2 referrals for every 1 GB of free storage.
