My top 5 utility apps You Must Download For Your Android Device by TechyGirl(f): 11:36am On Oct 22, 2014 |
Okay since more than 95% of Nigerians already use an android phone, i would be letting you in on my TOP 5 UTILITY apps you must have in your android device, be warned these apps very good 1. Find-A-Med ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.find_a_med.app) : This is a must app for you if you are a Nigerian .. it is amazinnnng because it is made specifically for Nigerians ......Do you know what it means to get access to all accredited hospitals, pharmacies, dentist, veterinaries, baba alawo(JUST KIDDING) wherever you are in Nigeria? ....In just 2 seconds the app locates the nearest medical centers close to you ..amazing right! ...Still not convinced?.. The app also provides you with daily health tips and keeps track of your health history. I repeat This is a MUST HAVE APP and if you dont have it make sure you download it. it would help you in so many ways trust me 2. True Caller (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.truecaller): If you do not have true caller app installed on your phone then you are missing out on a great deal. Now picture this, you have this number disturbing your phone's peace (aka stalkers) and you dont really know who it might be, or you are like me who doesn't like picking up unknown numbers. True caller comes to the rescue by displaying the person's identity anytime he/she calls. if you are a girl you need this more because of them stalkers out here 3. SwiftKey: I am sure most of you know this app by now.. if you do not have this app installed.. You need to be flogged ..lol.. this apps makes your typing speed improve in a flash, i mean it is like a magician, it knows what you are about to type and corrects any mistakes you make automatically. I repeat.. if you do not have this app in your android device.. YOU NEED TO BE FLOGGED ( Download : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey) 4. Photo Grid: Oh yeah we all know about Piccmix.. but Photo grid is the real deal. To picmix, photogrid is like superman steroids -__-... the various collage layouts it has plus the ability to create video slides and flimstrips makes Photo Grid the best collage maker in THE WORLD. 5. ES File Explorer: WOW no words for this baby right here,..... ES file explorer is the best the best the best file manager in the app kingdom.. the benefits are so many i cant even start listing them out here but i would let you in on one....,now imagine if you want to transfer a 4GB file to your friend, we all know bluetooth sucks for that kind of job, ES file explorer comes in and saves the day by transferring that large file in just a matter of minutes.. YES 4GB file transfer in minutes and yeah IT IS FREE. In as much as i have other cool apps that are also important, the apps up here are the best in its category so if you don't have them click on the download links and become awesome.. (Thank me later) Do share with your friends and let them worship you. 10 Likes 7 Shares |

okonja: Like i said these are not all of the important apps i have.. but for now they are my top 5 UTILITY app :p have you used the Find-A-Med app or the True Caller app? |
Re: My top 5 utility apps You Must Download For Your Android Device by okonja(m): 11:52am On Oct 22, 2014 |
TechyGirl: Am very sure you are ignorant of the NoRoot Firewall, and it's especially for peeps like you that consumes data a lot. As the name suggests, the app doesn't require you to root your Android before installing it, and it puts you in control of Internet access for all apps on your device, as well as how they can access it. (Instead of switching off your data all the time) My favorite part of the app is in its ability to specify if an app can access the Internet only over Wi-Fi, only over 3G/Data, neither or both. It gives you the control to tell your Dropbox or Play Store to only download when you're on Wi-Fi, or set some other app to be active only on 3G. To download from Playstore, click >>HERE<< |

ucheogini: But tell me, of all the people that uses android, how many does not complain about data consumption rate?....Which the solution to the excessive data consumption is nothing other that the "NoRoot Firewall" |
Re: My top 5 utility apps You Must Download For Your Android Device by TechyGirl(f): 11:56am On Oct 22, 2014 |
okonja: FYI NoRoot Firewall is not an utility app.. i have noROot firewall already installed in my HTC One.. dont forget these apps are MY Top 5 UTILITY app |

TechyGirl: You too tell me; Of all the people that uses android, how many does not complain about data consumption rate?....Which the solution to the excessive data consumption is nothing other that the "NoRoot Firewall" Am not disputing your own list oh!, but I strongly believe that without managing your data and reducing your spending rate on data, you wouldn't enjoy your Android device(s) except you are 8 figures account owner because some stingy 7 figures account owner still complains |
Re: My top 5 utility apps You Must Download For Your Android Device by TechyGirl(f): 12:03pm On Oct 22, 2014 |
okonja: Okay Okonja thank God you accepted that NoRoot Firewall is not a utility app |

[quote author=TechyGirl post=27353365] 1. True Caller . Just as you said. if you are a girl you need this more because of them stalkers out here . You must open up your id before you can see others. Me no likey. Thanks 2. Find-A-Med : Only good for visitors, my favourite condom retailers aka chemists are not listed there 3. SwiftKey: OK I'm using this but I will give them 5 star when I get the tab button. My favourite alternative is TouchPal. And for the auto correct feature, that was the first thing I disabled when I installed it. I wrote Seun and it auto correct it to Sewer 4. Photo Grid: To picmix, photogrid is like superman steroids -__- Really? OK I will try this . 5. ES File Explorer: how does this transfer work without an external wifi access . Have you tried Xplorer with its dual pane interface, makes you feel like Windows. Copying files from here to there is much more convenient How about Quickoffice Pro HD 1 Like |

What Truecaller does :for those of you who really dont know,once you install truecaller it takes your own personal phonebook and downloads it to their servers.So the names you see when a strange number calles you is actually the way someone who uses truecaller and has that particular number in his phonebook saved the number.So users of truecaller thanks for giving the world a peek into your phonebook contacts . 6 Likes |

I don't do without these Apps Lux Twilight Backlight widget Good for those who spend time with their device before going to bed as it helps in controlling screen brightness far beyond what your device offers by default. (NOTE: install and use only one at a time, to avoid compactability and control issues) No root firewall (for non rooted device) Droid wall (for rooted device) Adobe photoshope express Opera max Quick office |

sniperwolf: Opera max is for reducing or compressing of data when browsing, Ideal for streaming. No root firewall is preventing your apps from using ur data without your permission. |
Re: My top 5 utility apps You Must Download For Your Android Device by Nobody: 3:23pm On Oct 22, 2014 |
sniperwolf:OperaMax is shiit. Fake saving. If u use Es file explorer, it has a float window u use to monitor ur data usage. Uld get to see that operamx aint saving shit. If i have 4gb. Operamax will tell me i have used 3.5gb and it has saved 500mb. Lies check ur data uld see uve used up d 4gb sef. 1 Like |
