UberMusic

Needs more substance It's pretty to look at but lacks in functionality. Could greatly benefit from the addition of an adjustable graphic EQ.

IVONA Text-to-Speech HQ

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU! Worked amazing on Froyo, but so far can't use it on ICS on my Galaxy Nexus. The Ivona engine isn't even selectable in the Text to Speech settings. :(

POV Live Wallpaper

Not far from iPhone's DeepEnd... With the perspective option, this LWP comes very close to the iPhone's DeepEnd app, but it's just too jittery. I think the effects could be much smoother and impressive if there were an option in the settings relating to accelerometer sensitivity. Uninstalled until such an option comes along. Also, it would be better if it didn't force you to selecting an image matching your device's screen res. Selecting a bigger than res image would eliminate the black gaps that the LWP can produce when tilting too far.

TrackChecker

Terrific! This is an excellent application and is a great help with keeping track of all of my online purchases and sales!

ObscuraCam

Doesn't Work on DROID X Won't actually save images. They show up in my gallery as undeletable, unplayable video clips.

Fresco Lite (drawing app)

Sketchbook Mobile (what I use and graded this against) has you beat on brush and layer options, and overall is more advanced.

Speedy Uploader for Facebook

Wonderful App, Minor Issues on Droid X Love the app, but two issues.... When I select multiple pics in my X's default gallery app and go to Share, Speedy Uploader is NOT an option. If I only select one photo to share it IS an option. My other issue is that it does not properly tag photos of people for Facebook. I select people from my FB friends and it will tag the pics to their FB profile, but the only person it does not do this with and only tags their name as text is my son's profile. I suspect this is because his FB is private/hidden?

Battery Widget

Since the last update, the bar no longer updates with text. It would be a nice feature to have color selection for bar and text separately. Dx ginger

HiFiCorder Lite Record Sound

It's ok but TapeMachine is WAY better, with a lot more features and a lower pricetag. This is not a $10 app!
