Official PA State Parks Guide

Took this on a week-long camping trip. Contained the maps I wanted, but at a limited resolution. Stick with printed guides instead.

DroidDice

It would be better if it gave you more choice in what sets of dice to roll.

GOdroid

This was one of the 2 best games I had for my Droid! But then I had to remove it for more space. :-(

Hacker News Reader

I'm sorry to say it but after using this a long time, I think just using the website is easier and better than using this app.

Super Tumble (LITE)

Very pretty implementation of a very boring game.

Contacts Evolved

It works, but poorly; I'm uninstalling. Problems included: space for only a few groups, companies w/ no name show badly, no way to add ppl to groups.

Gobang

Now that it needs to use the camera, I am uninstalling. I don't trust it.

QuickAlarm

Prevents the phone from sleeping or locking properly. Unacceptable, and I'll be uninstalling the app.

Omar Sharif Bridge

It's not a very good bridge game, especially the UI. It is, however, the ONLY usable bridge game available for Android.

Bookmarking for Delicious.com

Lets you send web pages to delicious. UI is pretty good.

How is your network, actually? Useful app.

Piano Play

I it's an android limitation, but the reaction time is just too slow for a piano app.

Vuvuzela

A friend with an iPhone tried to show me there was an app for everything by playing a vuvuzela app. It failed. This one showed him; Android Rocks!

Guess Word

I was unable to get this to work. I could not drag the letters in the anagram.

Galaxy Domination Demo

An addictive and fun little game - try this free version with the first few levels to see if you like it. I did, and bought a copy.

AndTangle - Brain Challenge

A simple and entertaining game; worth a few minutes of your time.

Zen Comic <1L>

I could never quite make sense of it. I hope others enjoy it though.

Join The Dots

Very basic connect the dots. But it does not draw until the finger is lifted.

Ars Technica Widget

Shows stories from ars technica the only 1 at a time. Just using their mobile site works better.

myRandom

It does what it claims to but, all in all it's a fairly lousy random number program.

Which Way Is Up?

Except for the portrait mode and australia bugs others have mentioned this works perfectly! I find it invaluable in elevators.

by mcherm the 3/30/2010

Way Out Free

This would be a good game, except that contrary to what it claims, many of the puzzles are impossible!

by mcherm the 3/29/2010

US Economy

It does just what it claims to but that's not much Mostly it just shows a fixed graph.

ScrumDroid

Simple tool that just lets you pick a card - nothing more. Just pick the card and then show your screen. Replaces 1 scrum deck.

MobileWrite Trial

Excellent trial, you can see exactly how it works for several days. I miss graffiti and this seems like a great tool.

Mini Bridge

I would like a bridge game for android, unfortunately this is not it. Too broken to play: for instance, no dummy.
