5 Android Apps I Couldn’t Live Without
Let’s start with the premise that most of these are free, and I love free. I was a late-comer to the world of Android and the “app”, but I knew that I would be an instant fan. I’ve always loved software and lots of it! Apps are no different. I am a self-proclaimed “app whore”. Whatever…I’m sure you didn’t come here to listen to me ramble out my thoughts on apps. Let’s get to the point…

Evernote
What is it? Duh, it’s an app. I’m kidding…Evernote is a productivity app and so much more. It’s “newspaper clipping” meets the Internet.
What does it do? You can clip anything on the ‘net to Evernote to read or use later. Create a searchable database of information with a few simple taps.
How much? Free. They do have premium services. As of this writing, the price is $5 per month or $45 per year. You can get a rundown of what you get for that HERE.
Added bonus: You can sync the app with your computer via a mutual account and software download. Goodbye Neat Desk Scanner.

MyTumblr FreeWhat is it? Access to tumblr in a simple app.
What does ot do? Pretty much everything you can do with tumblr. Much better than the official tumblr app with Dashboard access.
How much? Free.
DiodeWhat is it? In my humble opinion, it is the ONLY app for reddit.
What does it do? Everything that reddit.com does. Of course that is a whole other article in and of itself.
How much? Shockingly free.

Office Suite ProWhat is it? Office Suite Pro is an Office Suite for Android.
What does it do? It allows you to view and edit Microsoft Office documents including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. In fact, I am typing this post using it right now as I am at work with limited computer access and no Internet.
How much? $14.99. However, I got it free from the Amazon App Store courtesy of the “one free paid app per day” program. They’ve listed it there at least twice since February.
Added bonus: You can create new documents on the go an send them to Dropbox where you can retrieve and edit them later.
