Best Apps for the legend

I wanted to start a thread where Legend users could post there views of the best apps for the Legend.
apps is personal, there are no rights and wrongs, just taste.
- No lock ,
Tired of the lock screen?
If you want to use your phone as quickly as possible, this app is for you.
It simply disables the lock screen. Press the unlock/menu button just once and the screen turns on immediately.
- Layer ,
augmented reality really cool
- Google Maps Navigation ,
great GPS app .
- Appbrain App,
Appbrain is one stop Android store for all the apps that you might ever need. With this website users can easily browse Android apps based on categories and user ratings. Users can also download the AppBrain app to easily sync applications
right from any web browser.
- Shazam ,
With Shazam you can identify music tracks, store them, and buy them; plus you can learn more about the artist and connect to their MySpace page.
- Advanced task killer free
This app is very useful, I would even recommend for new users who have no clue why their Android phone may be sluggish.
- SuperGENS Lite ,
Fun for playing old super Nintendo games
- xda app
please post and share your knowledge and experience with others

My Tracks - GPS track recorder / uploader
RMaps - nice Google Maps alternative (with support for alternative map sources, compass rotation etc.)
Seesmic - twitter client
Tricorder - funny sensor monitor
WeatherBug - weather conditions/forecasts
Astrid - TODO manager
FBReader - eBook reader

I've had my Legend for only 2 days, here is what I use:
-ScoreMobile (sports scores and news)
-3G Watchdog (monitors my monthly data usage)
-1337pwn (xbox live friends list)
-Advanced Task Killer (kills open apps)
-DoggCatcher (solid podcast app)
-Note Everything (quick notes)
-AudioManager Pro (volume adjustment)
-Handcent SMS (SMS & MMS app)
-WiFi Manager
-Barcode Scanner
That's all for now.

here are a few of mine
Google Listen
Astro file manager
Retro Clock
Handcent
Keepassdroid
Google Maps Brut

auto lock, lets you choose a time frame in which your Legend won't ask for the security pattern when unlocking...

Here's some of mine that I've used on my G1, Hero and now Legend:
AnyCut - Allows you to alter labels of Icons on the home screen.
Astrid Tasks - A little "To Do" list manager, handy to remember things.
ASTRO - File manager, easy enough right?
eBuddy - Stable and what I've found to be the best MSN client.
engadget - Although I live in the UK, I like the tech feeds from it.
FxCamera - Camera emulator/FX which I mainly use for its Fisheye mode.
Jewels - This is just an addictive, simple game.
MySettings - More of a widget to change most common settings easily at the touch of a button instead of racing into the settings menu everytime.
No Lock - An app to disable the lock screen, so you can unlock without having to hit the power button everytime. Only just got this so might not keep it
Robo Defense - Free or Full, this is addictive if you've ever heard of tower defense.
Shazam - Names music through sound tagging if you don't know the name!
Sky News - Handy for looking at news on the go.
Task Manager (Green Android Icon, holding red X) - I prefer this to all other Task programs, has a really nice neat widget and clear UI.
UK National Rail Train Departures - Downloadable only off the net from the National Rail site or somewhere, but so handy for checking train times etc.
WikiMobile - Wikipedia on the go, simples.
XDA - Duh?
p.s. This should be pinned either here on in the apps section of the forum possibly?

What apps has everyone installed?

Being new to Android, I'm just wondering what everyone has installed on their Aria. ^_^

IMDb, xda, engadget, unit converter, flashlight, Facebook. I've installed plenty big others but those are the ones I use on a daily basis so far.
Sent from my HTC Aria

I have almost the same, Google Sky Map is a must have. The IMDB app is awesome!
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App

pandora, no-lock, pong time, dog whistle, shazam, the weather channel, xda, flashlight, google goggles, google skymap, shopper.

no-lock is great for just the optic push to wake-up

advanced task killer,astro file manager, audio manager,battery status pro,handcent sms, history eraser, pandora, palringo, shazaam,silent boot,spare parts, startup cleaner 2.0,tts extender, unistaller, louder volume hack,better keyboard.................lol..thats it

Abduction, Advanced Task Killer*, Android LightSaber, Bank of America, Basic Instructions, Blow Up, BreakTheBlock, Bump, doubleTwist, Engadget, fring, Google Goggles, GolfLogix, Google Sky Map, IMDb, Layar, Movies, Nesoid Lite, Pandora, Quadrant Standard, Quickoffice*, ScoreCenter, Shazam*, The Weather Channel, TV Listings*, xda*
Starred apps are highly recommended. I haven't actually tested doubleTwist (a music app that integrates with iTunes), so I can't comment on its usability.

Handcent, Swype, Shazam, Last.fm, Google Goggles, ShopSavvy, Locale
Locale's my favorite, saves me tons of battery. It'll adjust itself either by location or time. You can adjust the brightness, change ringtones and wallpapers. For me, I have one for my house, so when I get home, it automatically connects to my WiFi network, turns the brightness down to 20% and turns my ringer to full volume. Great for someone at work too. Although the app is at $9.99, it saves me lots of battery.

Currently, this is my list of installed:

I've installed Falling Ball and Labryinth Lite. They're not bad.

Definitely the best game I've come across is Bonsai Blast.

What are some good apps/widgets to download?

Seeking suggestions on some good widgets/apps. My interests are social networking, music, ..the norm.
Also, what do you guys think about the "Twitter for HTC Sense" widget vs. the "Touiteur"?

For music services try pandora or slacker. For players, poweramp, mixzing, or meridian. For song id shazam.
Some people like Foursquare.

Double twist is a good music player and tweetdeck is good for social networking
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

PowerAMP is the best for music players. Hands down. I bought the full version today - the trial is full-featured but expires after a while.
I use Peep (the HTC twitter widget) but I don't do any tweeting I just follow stuff and check up on it a few times a day. Definitely get Handcent; it's a great SMS replacement app that is really customizable. My favorite is getting it to split messages after 160 characters by word, so there's no word being cut off, and you dont get an annoying message from Verizon about how you can't send over 160 characters to carriers other than Verizon like you do with the stock app.
For web browsing, I'd pick up Dolphin HD. I like it better htan the stock one because I can exit out of it and end the process - for a while I was having problems with the stock browser getting my phone hot and using CPU while I wasn't using it.
Definitely get Appbrain. Then:
On Appbrain, you can install an app called Car Home released by Google. It replaces the (awful) stock "Car Panel." Add it to your phone from the web site and then install it from the application and open the Car Panel app and choose Car Home. It's much more customizable and it doesn't use GPS all the time whenever it's open.
Obviously, get Angry Birds.
Good Morning is an alarm app that I like. It starts playing music and then tells you the time, day, weather, and if you purchase it, your calendar appointments for the day. Get the free version and then upgrade if you want multiple alarms and the calendar appointments.
Hope this helps enjoy your phone.

Can't thank you enough for your time and input. Def. gonna try some of these out.

tv show favs is a great app for keeping track of tv programs. Great if you have a lot, but sometimes forget to watch when they air. Love it

Great list! I found that you and I have many of the same. Some that I might add though...
-Mobile Queue for Netflix users (until there is an official Netflix app)
-Open Table to make restaurant reservations on the go
-Basichords to go with gStrings Tuner for guitar players
-TIKL for people who enjoy Push To Talk (PTT) functionality
-Pulse for a decent RSS reader
-ESPN ScoreCenter
-VocaNote - you can record voice notes with this app, it translates them to text and sends to your in either SMS or email format (can specify). Love this app for taking notes in the car!
-SoundHound - I prefer it over Shazam, but basically the same thing (I purchased the unlimited song "findings" version)
-Dazzle Widget or Extended Controls - gives you the functionality of toggling sound, display, GPS, bluetooth, Airplane Mode, etc. from one 1x4 widget. (I purchased Extended Controls but Dazzle is probably just as good for free)

If you are rooted...
Root Explorer (by far the best money I ever spent on an app, especially if you're into modding)
Titanium Backup Pro
Quick Boot
Drocap2
AdFree Android
Rom Manager Premium
SetCPU

Ringdroid to turn your songs into ringtones very easily.
Taptalk for forums.
Wireless tether for hotspot.
Google sky map still amazes me.
Live holdem greatest online poker game on android.
Lookout mobile security in case some jackass steals your phone.

Appbrain. It used to be more useful than it is now, but it still lets you browse apps on your computer and add them to a list that you cam install from your phone in the app.

Sent from my Droid Incredible running Myn's Warm Two Point Two RLS4.

adw.launcher and adwnotify - I like adw better and adwnotify gives me the unread count wherever the icon is.
handcent sms for texts - top notch app
angry birds for waiting in lines
Astro file manager
dropbox (easiest way ever to get things to your phone)
autostarts - this lets me control what starts on startup, so i can do things like make the random games that i play once a week not start up every time i boot the phone.
barcode scanner
dolphin browser - yay tabs!
Touchdown/exchange for my work email (yes, i know they can remote wipe it if they want....since i wipe the whole thing myself every couple of weeks to play with a new rom, that hardly matters.)
appbrain
lookout mobile security or threat aware (trying this one out)
mahjong
pandora
robo defense
springpad (awesome note taking app that syncs to the web)
trap! (annoying awesome game)
U.S. Army Survival Guide (in case of zombie apocalypse)
XDA
Y5 Battery Saver (turns off wifi unless you are in range of a remembered wifi hot spot)
Two that I wish worked better are:
Widget Locker (as stated above - can be laggy and flakey - replaces the lock screen but lets you put whatever you want on it.)
ICE - In Case of Emergency (also replaces lock screen, but force closes on 2.2 a LOT)

Some apps I haven't seen mentioned, For humor, try
Fml, epic fails, demotivational posters, daily comic strip
For shopping, amazon, best buy.
For in the car, I just ordered a blueant s4, which has app that goes it that will read texts to you, allow for navigation to be read via Bluetooth, and announce callers and give option to answer or not. Haven't got it yet, don't know how well it works.

Is car home gone guys?

The preamp on the EQ handles volume boosting nicely. I agree, $5 is a premium, but you get what you pay for, and as much as I use my Evo for listening to music, I feel the cost is worth it. Eh, but that's just me *lol*

Most of my must-have paid apps have been mentioned. Here are a few that weren't:
Gentle Alarm - best alarm clock, I use it daily
Swiftkey
WavPlayer - plays the funky file format from my home & office VoIP voicemail
BeyondPod - podcast manager
Donation, not paid:
Craiglist Nofication - hands down the best & most used app on my phone. I have found many great deals on CL by jumping on them the instant they showed up in my searches.

I also like Palmary Weather a lot, but I wouldn't necessarily call it a "must-have."

Apps U use on your WP8 device

Which apps use on your devices?

Authenticator (think Google Authenticator)
bart mobile (when in the Bay Area)
Fiction Book Reader (for DRM-free ebooks; I've tried a few others too such as Point Reader which is different and cool)
Flashlight (does what the name implies...)
Here Drive/Transit/Maps (of course, although Here Drive pisses me off quite badly at times)
IM+ (for GTalk, Yahoo Messenger, and AIM contacts)
LinkedIn (mostly for answering messages / network requests)
Lync 2013 (for work)
Mango Transit (basically acts like the built-in Maps app but adds the ability to get directions via transit instead of only driving or walking)
MTGBugs NEXT (helpful app for Magic: the Gathering players)
My Account (T-Mobile US carrier account info app)
Netflix
OneBusAway (somewhat regional but very helpful)
oPenGP (PGP/GPG client; not great but does the job)
OverDrive (for getting e-books and e-audiobooks from the library)
Pandora (not a lot, since I have a Zune / Xbox Music pass, but sometimes)
RemoteDesktop (works fantastically)
Skype (of course)
Speedtest.net (just like the website, basically)
The SSH Client (also works great, and yes I use both RDP and SSH servers)
WTA Trailblazer (only useful if you happen to live in Washington, or want to do hikes here, but I do...)
Yelp
This is a pretty partial list - just the stuff that I use *regularly* - and excludes the following categories of apps:
Games (lots of those)
Built-in apps (I don't use all of them, but I use a lot of them)
Homebrew apps (given what I do here, this should be obvious)

#mowithlove (for giving mustache to pics)
advanced english dictionary
CamScanner (very useful app)
Flashlight XT
LazyLens(For pics effects)
Nokia smart camera
Moliplayer Pro(watching Movies)
myAppfree (daily one free app)
Nokia Mix radios
Nokia cinemagraph(Animated photoes)
Youtube HD
Lockmix (i love this app)

Most of the Nokia apps, Bing news & weather, Netflix, mytube, Hulu plus, flashlight x, swipe tunes, various games, Skype, instagram beta, tumblr, pininterest, vba8, snes8, imdb, mediafire, PayPal, Pandora, tapatalk, chronos, contacts, battery meter and baconit. Some others too
Sent from my RM-878_nam_usa_100 using Tapatalk

I've got a number of apps that I've installed but only so many I actually use...
Remoting into other computers:
TeamViewer - for when RDP doesn't want to cooperate.
ConnectMe - RDP client, kinda works...NetBIOS names seem to break on WP8.
Music&Video:
onePlayer - a decent DLNA app that kinda works (its really a WP7 app, Nokia's PlayTo does the opposite of what I want; I loved HTC's Connected Music app for WP7)
ModPhone7 - Plays tracker music (MODs, XMs, ITs, S3Ms)
WOMP - Also plays tracker music, it was the first in the store to actually work.
Sat Rad Player - An app that plays the streams from SiriusXM. Its no longer in the store AFAIK...
MPAtool - used to be homebrew for WP7, but its officially a legitamate app now. It mostly adds images from last.fm, but does a basic google image search too...
Games:
Tiny Death Star - A freemium game thats actually playable without throwing real money at it.
VGBC/VGBA/SNES8X/EmiGens/EmiPSX - Emulators that I use to kill time in public. Sometimes I wish they made a shell-like moga controller (I don't actually use these too often where I'd want to purchase one, but not all of these have support for it either...)
Internet Stuff:
UCBrowser - A "private" browser that has previously had a homebrew version for WP7. Also works for downloading stuff that IE wouldn't download.
Amazing Weather HD - Nice live tile.... Thats about it. I solely use this to check the weather. (Radar is meh in all weather apps in the store.)
SysApp Pusher - A must have for checking updates and installing apps for other OEMs.
Skype - I occasionally chat with other xda members using this, but it doesn't always work in the background.
Zinio - I have a few magazines I read using their service. Namely PCMag....
MetroTube - Some might actually object to this, but it just has always worked for me. I also had this on WP7 a year ago. I download some youtube videos using this, but I'd wish it had a transfer to music+videos option to watch it on something else or to download them to the PC.
Gasbuddy - I used to try and report gas prices to help others, but since I'm the one who does most of the driving... its not very useful unless I need to find gas in the first place.
Windows Phone Central - This is kinda the only news I read anymore. Politics and regional news is the same stuff month after month.
Tapatalk - I post here using it when I need to just do a quick update on what I'm doing or if I can actually help someone.
facebook beta - Its facebook... what more can I say about it?
wptorrent pro - a torrent app that plays movies and stuff...it shares the files to the local network via a web-server.
Lockscreen background:
Lock Manager - a visually appealing lockscreen that I can live with that has the weather in a format that doesn't take too much of the lockscreen image away.
glance background - added a monochrome version of Master Chief (John) from Halo and set it too look like it was on 8bit device
Mapping/GPS Stuff
HERE Drive+ - Annoying as h***, I use it mainly for my current part-time job and I'm beginning to feel extreme hate for it. The fact it mutes the audio when it announces things is the first annoyance instead of pausing the music or just ducking behind the music volume while announcing the directions. The second annoyance is that it doesn't announce the address right before I destinate. (at least after the last update it shows the hose number instead of just the street name.) Also, it doesn't always have the most accurate maps, its 3 years outdated in my region, so roads have been renamed and other roads have been outright closed. When not actually not on the road it tends to snap you to the road, so you could be in a parking garage where it snaps you to a road when you are actually on a different one. This app fully assumes that you are still heading the "proper" directions until it recalculates in ~5-10 seconds. All of this just makes me wish the Garmin app wasn't so darned expensive.
gMaps - I use this when Nokia Drive/Bing Maps/anything that uses the OS's maps are out of date and need to get to a missing street.
GPS Voice Navigation - I've dabbled with this a bit enough to say its nice to use, but requires data; navigating around the app isn't as straight forward as it should be.
Developer Apps:
TimeMe - a clock tile with the date, battery percentage and the current weather (just temp and status e.g. cloudy image and temp)
Native Toast Launcher - Used for launching hidden pages inside any app.
US MO Apps - for whenever I can get Fiddler to work right again...
