Favourite Android Apps, Beyond the Usual Suspects - I

I am always on the look out for good Android apps - some for better productivity, some to use in leisure, and some just for the fun quotient in them. But, here is a list of 10 of my favourite Android apps (in no particular order), beyond the usual suspects (email, SM, messaging, streaming), that I use quite regularly on my Android devices. This is just a quick note - I will probably write in details later.

  1. Pocket: Great app for offline reading - when you go off the grid or when you want to save on your data usage
  2. Minimalistic Text: Fine eye candy for your phone with endless possible customizations
  3. Flipboard: A news aggregator service and a place you can create your own magazines, with good social media integration
  4. Wallaby: Maximize your credit card reward points - know which credit card to use for which merchant
  5. Astro File Manager: A handy file explorer service for your phone's file system with cloud storage (Dropbox, Google Drive, Onedrive) integration
  6. Wifi Explorer: Manage your phone's filesystem from a PC over wifi
  7. 500 Firepaper: Another eye candy app with a great collection of 500px wallpapers that recycle at easily customizable intervals, from different categories of images
  8. Pixlr Express: For some quick photo processing and editing, and for those in-vogue hipster filters
  9. Google Play Music: Google's Music service, great for offline playback of your cloud stored music collection, as well as to discover new music
  10. News Republic: Another handy news aggregator with nice look and feel, good content and social media integration

What are your favourite phone/tablet apps (Android or otherwise)?
