Android Apps

[LawrenceU]

I finally had to buy a new phone. I've been a TMobile customer for so long that I have a rate plan that is impossible to match with any other carrier. I knew my phone was dying. It is over seven years old. I have looked around for iPhones to buy but, even refurbs are ridiculously expensive and ATT coverage around here stinks. So, the iPhone was out. I ended up getting an Android powered phone.

I know some of you are Android users. What apps do you use?

Don't have one yet. I'm going to get one, soon. The first things I'm going to need are Bible sofware apps, mainly for Hebrew and Greek, yahoo mail and facebook apps, gps, .pdf reader.

What about skype? I don't think you could actually do video conferencing on something like this, could you?

 

[LawrenceU]

Thanks, Rich. I can see some in there that I can definitely use. I wish there were a better search function on Market. This gives me a great head start.

I don't now about conferencing, but one on one video chat is really good.

Does it have a built-in video cam, then? By "chat", I assume you mean audio/visual, right?

I use skype on my laptop. In has a built in video cam. I haven't tried it on my new phone. The camera is on the back. It has a very sensitive mic so it might work. According the manufacturer its processor is fast enough. I'll have to see. . .

Let me know how it works! How many people can you feed to at one time on Skype, anyway? I'm thinking of options to stream live video to a broad audience for evangelistic purposes in a format where they may respond with questions and objections.

Skype works, with video. It all depends on the strength of the 3G signal.
