Top 5 android apps

By
Many people are crazy about  android mobiles and their applications . There are over 100000 android apps . Here I would like to rate you some of the interesting Android apps.
1.Webroot Mobile Security
This software protects your Android device from a wide range of threats and can even help when your device is lost or stolen.
Webroot is a powerful internet security solution that has now been brought to Android.

Antivirus scan: 

You can setup Webroot to automatically scan any new app as it is installed as well as any newly downloaded or modified files.  Full scans can also be scheduled to occur hourly, daily, or weekly.

Lost Device Protection: This is a feature that you’ll hopefully never need to use. First, setup a password that you are sure to remember. Then, fill your buddy list with trusted friends/family who you’d like to be sent a temporary password if you forget yours. If your device is ever lost or stolen, you can use the following commands:
  • lock [your password] – Locks your Android device and prevent unauthorized use (only your Webroot password will unlock it).
  • wipe [your password] – Wipes SD card, contacts, calendar entries, call log, browser bookmarks and history, SMS messages, all secondary email accounts, and the password of the primary Gmail account.
  • locate [your password] – Sends a link to Google Maps with phone’s current location.
  • scream [your password] – Blasts a screaming noise from your lost or stolen device.

Call/SMS Blocking: By enabling you to filter calls and text messages received from unwanted numbers , u can prevent your android mobile from unwanted call and SMS.

Secure Web Browsing: Prevents malicious websites from opening in the Android browser. Similar to Google Chrome, if you attempt to enter a site that turns out to be suspicious, an alert pops up giving you the options to block it or continue.




2.UpSoundDown
Earlier it was  solely restricted to Samsung mobile phones. Now , any Android app can make use of this simplistic, yet highly useful feature. If you are on an active call you just need to place the phone on a table upside down, and the call will automatically switch over to loudspeaker mode. This is a very useful tool to have, and it makes full use of the accelerometer that is present in every touch phone.To shut speaker-phone off, just pick the phone up, upright. Simple, quick and fun.



3.Rockplayer


If your phone does not have out of the box DivX and XviD support, then you must be sorely missing the ability to play multiple video formats. This player  solves all those problems and it is compatible with all kinds of video formats. The free version has a small logo on the corner of the screen, but this is not obtrusive in any way.


4. Androidify by Google :


An interesting app to androdify yourself , your parents friends any one.
You can personalize your own Android with various outfits, shoes, hair, hats, and other accessories. Even stretch or shrink the arms, legs, body, and head as you see fit.Once you have completed your personalizations, save and share it via gmail, SMS, Twitter, or Picasa. You can see all of your creations in the “My Androids” section in the menu.
A worthy update would be the ability to customize the background, since the only option is plain white at the moment.
5. Gdocs

You can use this app to access your Google Docs anytime and anywhere. You can view the PDF files and edit spreadsheets and text documents . But don’t expect any of the advanced formatting options with this app. However, this app is enough for you to send, check as well as edit your important data on a short notice.
  • Multiple accounts support
  • Support of Google Apps accounts (Google Premier accounts)
  • PDF viewer
  • Automatic document synchronization
  • Localized to multiple languages (French, German, Hungarian, Norwegian, Russian, Romanian)
  • Android 1.5 supported (Motorola Droid, Nexus One, Hero, Touch, G1 & etc.)
  • Import/export of documents and files from Google cloud and your Android device.
