Ninesky Browser

For me, on a Galaxy S & Android 2.1, it's painfully slow if other apps are running. Default browser much faster.

RssDemon News & Podcast Reader

Mostly great, but has the extremely annoying habit (shared with too many other apps) of restarting randomly after I kill it.

WiFi File Explorer PRO

Useful, but transfer keeps cutting off, and it can't resume the download -> impossible for me to download entire photo directory.

by Chriswaterguy the 12/24/2011

Outliner

Quite basic, and a tree structure looks like more work to maintain than tagging. Maybe it's personal taste, but I'm sticking with Catch.

by Chriswaterguy the 12/21/2011

Activity Log

Nice idea, but need to be able to set reminders/prompts, to do the task or record it.

by Chriswaterguy the 12/18/2011

English Thai Tutor

No tones or Thai script.

by Chriswaterguy the 12/18/2011

T.C. Chan Center

News is empty (or else it just won't download). Looks like it's no longer supported with content.

by Chriswaterguy the 12/14/2011

Brief me

Might be interesting, but keeps force closing, couldn't manage to add Twitter. Couldn't configure. Maybe I'll try again later. Galaxy S, 2.1.

by Chriswaterguy the 11/12/2011

First Aid

Keeps starting up by itself. The info could be clearer, for quickly getting key points in an emergency. There are better first aid apps, IMO.

by Chriswaterguy the 11/11/2011

First Aid

Looks pretty good so far.

by Chriswaterguy the 11/11/2011

TechNews

Nice interface, but can't add or remove feeds.

by Chriswaterguy the 11/10/2011

Reach Your Goals

Perry good, but I decided I wanted to have more control of the data I put in, so I moved it to a spreadsheet (& keep a copy of key parts on my phone)

by Chriswaterguy the 11/5/2011

Ushahidi

I start my phone it starts up. I turn it off (for now), and it starts up again. I turn it off, it starts up, so I uninstall. Pity, I wanted to try it.

by Chriswaterguy the 10/19/2011

Thai Dict

No use for the beginner learning Thai. Has no pronunciation guide,& when I press speak, it speaks the *English* word.

by Chriswaterguy the 9/17/2011

AgileSoup

Looks great, but the inability to use without an internet connection is a deal breaker for me. Will make do with Astrid/Producteev, for now at least.

by Chriswaterguy the 8/29/2011

Wifi Static

Disconnected me repeatedly by unchecking "static IP" in phone settings (while actually connected on a static IP). Turned off auto-switch -> better.

by Chriswaterguy the 6/1/2011

Microblog

Force close on trying to start up. (Galaxy S, 2.1.) I like having Identi.ca & Twitter, so two stars instead of one. I use Mustard instead.

by Chriswaterguy the 6/1/2011

StatusNet Mobile

Looks promising, but doesn't work for me - won't refresh or load replies.

by Chriswaterguy the 5/18/2011

MyChain

Slow response to updating a habit for the day; not obvious if a habit has already been marked for the day.

by Chriswaterguy the 5/18/2011

Drop and Give Me Twenty! DGMT!

Doesn't suit me - may suit you. Would prefer it to tell me how many sets and reps for the coming day - & not keen on the touch/proximity counter.

by Chriswaterguy the 4/19/2011

GoalTracker

Reviewing my goals each morning has been great for my focus & helps me push myself. Only app like it that I've found, & some good recent improvements.

by Chriswaterguy the 3/20/2011

Workout Timer

Works fine, but can't change the noises (I find them harsh). RoundTimegives more options.

by Chriswaterguy the 3/13/2011

Galapagos Browser

It runs on top of the default browser - don't let the small download size trick you into thinking it's a lightweight browser - it's not.

by Chriswaterguy the 2/20/2011

Any Radio

@hello That worked for finding some English channels - I'd still like an English interface option tho, & a way to find more channels.

by Chriswaterguy the 2/18/2011

Reminder

Tested it, didn't go off. Not clear whether events are repeating (presumably the "occasional"ones are yearly). And no daily events option.

by Chriswaterguy the 2/18/2011

Missed Reminder

Does its job.

by Chriswaterguy the 2/5/2011

HIIT It Workout Timer

Not many sound options. Doesn't seem to have profiles, for multiple types of workout.

by Chriswaterguy the 2/5/2011

Round One Timer

No profiles, so you can only have one routine programmed. In settings, typing into seconds field -> FC. (Tapping the up/down button works, though.)

by Chriswaterguy the 2/5/2011

Workout Timer

Don't like the noises used. Not obvious how to do multiple intervals (but I didn't explore much due to the noises).

by Chriswaterguy the 2/5/2011

Mobile Kegels

Great - simple but customizable has vibrate-only option.

by Chriswaterguy the 2/4/2011

Kegel Muscle Exerciser

Good enough, but if you want vibrate in a free app, use Mobile Kegels.

by Chriswaterguy the 1/10/2011

CPR•Choking

If someone is choking, we're told to check if they're breathing. We're not told what to do with that info.

by Chriswaterguy the 1/5/2011

Tag To-Do List

Force close when I try to run it. Tried the latest update, still FC.

by Chriswaterguy the 1/5/2011

Top10GetFit - Basic Workouts

1 exercise, and that's just a link to a video that opens in my browser. Lame.

by Chriswaterguy the 9/2/2010

mustard

It works, it's light, and the developer fixed a reported bug v quickly. Hoping for better multiple account integration & swipe navigation.

Failed to save a note made while offline (disappeared during refresh, trying to re-login).
