by PamG the 9/7/2010

by PamG the 8/13/2010

Contacted dev; read info. Remained inconsistent (no task killer; prior version). Moved 2 RingScheduler- works as expected, always. Droid, DroidX.

by PamG the 8/13/2010

by PamG the 8/10/2010

by PamG the 8/10/2010

by PamG the 8/9/2010

by PamG the 8/5/2010

Google Voice SMS

by PamG the 8/4/2010

by PamG the 7/26/2010

scanR Business Center

v3.0.10: Too many worthy 1-paymt doc scanner apps, then just attach to email. Yesterday's tech at premium pricing. Pass. DroidX

by PamG the 7/26/2010

VIP Call

v2.0.3: Sometimey, ignorant of Google Groups & no way to schedule. Alternative: Auto Ring + Sound Manager, both free; or RingScheduler. DroidX

by PamG the 7/23/2010

Email To Self

v1.7.8: Super handy, esp for mailing URLs of web pages as you read - easily. Still among my most used/valued apps! GTD gem. Droid & DroidX

by PamG the 7/22/2010

Voice Choice 2.0

v1.0.1: Flawless operation, consistently! Now if I could just find a *reliable* companion app 4 pushing GV to Verizon voice when data's funky. DroidX

by PamG the 6/28/2010

Newsweek Mobile

Ads introduced on this PAID app, weeks after purchase. And far from prompt updates. AVOID!

by PamG the 6/17/2010

MultiCheckList Lite

v1.0: I kid you not. The UI is so inherently ludicrous that I actually laughed out loud.

by PamG the 6/13/2010

Contact Widget

v1.3.5: Excellent; attentive dev. Uniquely allows direct email as well as standard calls/txt. Makes a great GTD launchpad! Droid

by PamG the 5/29/2010

myLock utilities

Great. But not consistent. Randomly stops (no auto task killer) & has to be toggled on again. Stock Droid 2.1

by PamG the 5/26/2010

e-Mobile Today 2.0

v4.0: Tasks: difficult UI, FC when creating. News: never did load. Email: totals all unread instead of just inbox. Aggressively anti-intuitive. Droid

by PamG the 5/19/2010

by PamG the 5/13/2010

Simple Redial

by PamG the 5/13/2010

dc Redial

v1.0: Actually switched from paid ReDialer app to this. Smaller footprint, maximum info despite minimal 1-icon space. Droid.

by PamG the 5/13/2010

by PamG the 5/12/2010

by PamG the 5/4/2010

by PamG the 4/13/2010

Voice Notifications (Trial)

by PamG the 4/12/2010

Scan2PDF Mobile 2.0

Toolbox-worthy for attorneys. Should allow setting of default address to send to (me+receipts@gmail), instead of default account (gmail). Droid

by PamG the 4/10/2010

tCallBlocking

v1.1.0: Loved this, til an unknown called while on phone. Hung up live call, then Droid froze. 3 reboots to return to normal. Now uninstalled.

by PamG the 4/9/2010

by PamG the 4/9/2010

Better Calendar

v1.0: Fine 1st edition. But no export/backup nor customized alert (sounds can be informative!); + generic pop-up (eg, 1 apptmt) = refund. Droid

by PamG the 4/9/2010

Sprite Backup 2.0 Beta

v2.0.3.25: Tried v1, discarded. This version gives new meaning to *slow*. Uninstalled with resolve to never waste my time with this again. Droid.

by PamG the 4/9/2010

by PamG the 4/1/2010

Sunrise Sunset! Free

v1.2: Ugh!! Instead: choose popular cals @ your gCal site. Add sunset/sunrise gCal, per your zip. Sync to handheld. Add a free widget for homescreen.

by PamG the 4/1/2010

List Plus

v2.34: Works as advertised, multiple locales per item, etc NEEDS backup! Droid// Update: no backup = huge pain per factory wipe. Unforgivable. 5* > 3*

by PamG the 3/28/2010

by PamG the 3/21/2010

v1.1.7.5: Really dislikes Droid. First try = NewsRob Pro. FCs up the wazoo at scheduled alarm time. Lost sale.

by PamG the 3/19/2010

Target Date Pro

v1.30: Fine app & dev, but for law practice purposes, revamped (3/16/2010) sister app Lawyers Due Date Pro is right on time. Droid

by PamG the 3/18/2010

Amazon Lightning Deal Widget

v1.1.7: Updates fine for a day or so, then quits. Droid. Use AnyRSS, or Twidroid etc @AmazonDeals only twitter account instead.

by PamG the 3/17/2010

by PamG the 3/17/2010

v1.1.0: Widget is too big. Replaced w CurveFish- superior in all respects. Droid

by PamG the 3/16/2010

gbaCalc Decimal Calculator

by PamG the 3/11/2010

Dilbert Calendar Trial

v1.0.8060: *All* your gCals appear, as there is no option to choose. Actually, only 2 options: today, go to date. $5 for *this* = LoL. Droid

by PamG the 3/11/2010

v1.1: Nice little app. List retained even thru reboots. But no good for business without export feature, or toss to gCal. Uninstalled. Droid.

by PamG the 3/11/2010

v1.13: Fantastic idea, but: word-wrap is your friend; let me insert default address which can be changed. Still installed to monitor progress. Droid

by PamG the 3/10/2010

Date & Day Widget

I loved this & it worked well. But preferred same info within notifications bar >> "Calendar in Status Bar" = great! Droid

by PamG the 3/10/2010

by PamG the 3/10/2010

by PamG the 3/8/2010

Livo Recorder Pro

v3.5.5: Oversized widget wastes premium space; futzed sound alerts globally. Refunded. Droid.

by PamG the 3/7/2010

DroidRecord

v2.0.7: Multiple tries, fresh installs, reboots but scheduled alerts do NOT play sound. So wanted this app, but waste of time. Droid

by PamG the 3/4/2010

Droid: Constantly running. Phone flakiness ultimately tracked to this app. Uninstalled! So much promise, so many bugs.

by PamG the 3/1/2010

by PamG the 2/27/2010

BookManager Trial

v5.9: Wanted to test import to see if this could work with Readerware. Can't in trial. Weary of idiotic decisions, guaranteed only to kill payments.

by PamG the 2/27/2010

Business Ringtones

Good, crisp, clear & loud. Some really good for business scenarios. No embarrassment factor when they play. Droid

by PamG the 2/27/2010

by PamG the 2/25/2010

by PamG the 2/25/2010

Bike Shop Locator (USA)

I am truly in love with this dev. It's like he breathes to increase customer happiness/ satisfaction.

by PamG the 2/18/2010

by PamG the 2/2/2010

by PamG the 1/31/2010

I Tweet!

v1.1.3: Profoundly minimal feature set. Purchased before Twidroid Pro materialized. This app since uninstalled, with gusto!

by PamG the 1/30/2010

v1.no!: Install/restore screen, which should show SD card's app files, remains stubbornly blank. AdMob works tho. Droid.

by PamG the 1/30/2010

by PamG the 1/29/2010

by PamG the 1/19/2010

Paperdroid Pro

Fabulous on Droid. Among most used apps. Happy to pay, dev.

by PamG the 1/18/2010

Find Big Mac

No @Juan - McD's started free wifi, nationwide, a day or 2 ago. That's why some of us care about this app.

by PamG the 1/12/2010

Google And Blog News

Microscopic typeface on Droid = impossible to read = uninstall.

by PamG the 1/12/2010

eoeAppInstaller pro

Desperately needs a-z sort option.

by PamG the 1/12/2010

Multi-touch Gallery for Droid

Would-be ripoff of B&B's same-named app. But no way to steal the skill, as this horrendous thing proves. Droid FC festival!

by PamG the 1/6/2010

Android MarketDeals

Uninstalled within minutes. Content immediately blacks out on Droid when scrolling down page.

by PamG the 1/6/2010

Useful Switchers Full version

Worked on MyTouch. Not on Droid. Sorriest purchase I've made. Thankfully, there is "Quick Settings" app: comprehensive, smooth on Droid, free, no ads

by PamG the 1/4/2010

Apex Uninstaller

Slick and fast indeed, but ads are intolerable. Uninstalled.

by PamG the 12/29/2009

Could be the killa expense app, but dislikes Droid -- sporadically ignoring input, frozen pop-up screens, etc. Darn shame.

by PamG the 12/29/2009

Shoulda read description more carefully. Dev tells no lies - app hates Droid.

by PamG the 12/19/2009

by PamG the 12/17/2009

ExportContacts

Nice. Speedy. Droid 2.0.1 friendly.

by PamG the 12/15/2009

Excellent. No lags. Does its job without getting in the way. A pleasure to reward this skilled developer with $$. Luvs Droid!

by PamG the 12/12/2009

by PamG the 12/11/2009

Woot! Very fast indeed. Wish it had a backup option for app before uninstall like other similar apps. Smooth on Droid, so a keeper.

by PamG the 12/5/2009

Astraware Solitaire

Delightful on iPhone, but horrible here. Need magnifying glass to see cards, doesn't auto save your place in game. Uninstalled within 5 minutes.

by PamG the 9/30/2009
