Android Apps - What is Hot and Not

By
Real Estate Agent with JLA Realty TREC # 0524744

I am using the T-Mobile My Touch Android phone. I think the Android platform will surpass the iPhone in popularity very soon.

Don't get me wrong, I have an iPad and love it. But I jst think with the Android platform and all of the different carriers using it, it will pass the iphone numbers early next year.

Something I have found too is the apps on the Android are MOSTLY free where the Apple apps almost always cost you something.

I have found an app for the Android call App Brain http://www.appbrain.com This app allows you to search for and also back up and install apps from the web site. I really think this is cool because if the phone has to be reset or if I get a new Android phone, all I have to do is do a sync and I am good to go.

AppBrain  I Just love this app. And think this is one of the reasons, the Android platform will surpass the iPhone very soon.

I still wish I had gotten the Nexus One phone. Snooze and you loose. But for now I am stuck with a 1 year old phone and 1 year old technology until I can get upgraded from T-Mobile... I know, I could buy one now, but I'm not willing to buy a phone at RETAIL pricing...

Danny - I have the Verizon Droid and we have a love hate relationship.  The phone must get lonely as it will randomly call people on its own.  When using a bluetooth well the battery is gone quite quickly.  As a GPS, email, web searching device it is unbelievable....the phone part needs some work.

I found out with my Sprint Evo that if you try to download too many apps at one time, you may lock up the phone.  "Too many" was a pretty big number....  LOL

I like "Call Confirm."  Haven't made a butt call since. 

If Apple doesn't diversify past just ATT, Android will certainly take huge market share.

Great topic Danny. I use the Samsung Vibrant now after giving up my iPhone. I like the flexibility of the Android platform and its just a matter of time with all the developers working on programs it will be just like PC vs Mac. Now Android vs Apple.
