    Default Top 10 android apps for Phones

    I know we had this many times but all the threads on this is in the Broadband news section so I thought of creating one here as I could not find it

    I will start with my list (Unrooted and no games)

    ES File Explorer (Much better than Astro in my eyes)
    AVG Free (Anti Virus)
    Pulse (News Reader)
    WiFi analyzer (Great for finding best WiFi signal in your house)
    Tiger Arcade (Mame for Android)
    Dropbox (File Sync portable storage)
    3 Cube (Mp3 Player)
    Mybroadband Android App (tapatalk)
    Barcode Scanner
    Evernote (Notes app)

    How else do you use QT codes?
