I have been an Android user since the original Droid from VZW. When the Droid X was released I was there on release day working a deal to change my original Droid for the X. I am now a certified Android addict and I think Google should rule the world. 🙂 The only problem I have with Android is the lack of love the Disney Company shows the Android platform. Next to my Android obsession I am a Disneyphile (a person who is obsessed with all things that do with the Mouse). I have an iPod Touch...

I’ve never been a user of StumbleUpon, but I’ve heard good things about it. I decided to take the plunge and sign up when I heard their new app gave good app recommendations based on the apps you already have installed on your phone. Here is my review, in screenshots. When you launch the app for the first time, you get a sign up/log in screen. Unfortunately, the birthdate dropdowns weren't working on my phone, so I had to register online, then log in here. Once you set up topics,...

Soon we’re going to write up some cool accessory reviews, but I didn’t want to go too long between posts, so I thought I’d write up one of my must-have apps that’s almost invisble, but super-handy. It’s called “Not Call Log“. The reason for this app is simple – when the phone defaults to the Call Log after you hang up from a call, all kinds of bad things can happen, like accidentally calling someone from work in the middle of the night after...

Apps are amazing things. They can be extremely complex, performing multiple functions and actions to make your life just a touch easier. On the flip side, an app can be simplicity itself, designed to do one job and do it correctly. The Starbucks Card app is definitely one of the latter. The goal of the app is simple: with the push of a button, obtain the current balance of your Starbucks card. That’s it – no flashes, bangs, or flying sparklers coming out of your Android phone. For...

Game Type: Time-Management, Casual Price: Free Get It: Definitely, if you like time-management games. In these days of Iron Chef, Hell’s Kitchen, and other shows of the ilk it is no surprise that there is a plethora of cooking games on every device a person could play on. However, only a few stand up to more than a couple of tries without getting boring. Bistro Cook, therefore, surprised the heck out of me with it’s seductive combination of simple yet challenging gameplay. Is it the best...

As a DroidWoman on the move, I tend to spend a lot of time on the road/in the air/not directly connected to the internet. I have lamented the lack of a Google Reader app because of this. How else can I check on my ever-growing RSS feeds and keep current with the multitudes blog posts, web news updates, and cute kitty pictures? FeedSquares for Google Reader is the answer, and not only is it a useful solution, it is an elegant and attractive solution. Looks may not be everything with some apps,...

App Type: e-book reader Price: Free Get It: Yes if you like reading, definitely if you own a Kindle. Hello, I’m known as CraftLass and I am a Droid accessory addict. I have the dock, a spare battery, an external charger, so many charging cables I can’t even figure out where one of them came from, and even a car charger despite the fact that I don’t own a car. I would have the car dock if I did, of course. I may get it anyway for when I rent cars or ride along on road trips, it’s pretty...

App Type: guitar tuner that also works as a pitch pipe Price: Free (ad-free) or €1.00 Plus version with adjustable range nonlinear scale and doubled processing power. Get It: Any musician should have this. Even if you don’t need a tuner it can’t hurt to have one on hand in case someone playing with you needs it. I’m coming up on two decades of playing guitar, with a variety of other instruments earlier. Needless to say (if you know anything about stringed instruments), I have owned...

One of my favorite relatively new Android functions is the ability to send web pages to your phone from your computer’s web browser. AppBrain added some new functionality yesterday that allows you to send links or wallpapers to your phone from their website (in addition to the ability to send apps, which they already had with their “Fast Web Installer”). However, if you don’t have an AppBrain account, there are two apps that were already sending web links to phones long...
