Chasy's Favorite G1 Apps

  • Astrid: A comprehensive To Do application.
  • Twidroid: The best Twitter app for G1!
  • ChompSMS: A nifty SMS app that includes a virtual keyboard. Supposedly, they are developing a virtual T9 keypad for it too. I *love* this app.
  • Android IRC: BEST app for IRC addicts. :) Stays running in the bg - major plus in my book. Doesn't seem to drain battery too badly.
  • Useful Switchers: One-click access to frequently used settings. (i.e. brightness, ringtone, bluetooth, and many more. Also shows battery power remaining. Extremely handy app.)
  • G-Notepad: This is a great notepad app that allows you to transfer .txt, .html and other files back and forth from phone to computer.
  • Flashlight: A simple app but MAN, is it bright! I was impressed. :)
  • DroidSans Virtual Keyboard: A must-have if you just hate having to pop your keyboard open for every little thing.
  • Dark Keys: *THIS* app is a must-have for anyone using the white G1! Hard to see your keys in daylight when that backlight comes on, right? Bind Dark Keys to a quick launch shortcut so you can turn that pesky light off any time! Or turn it back on again...
  • Shazam: One of my very favorite apps - tune it in to a song that's playing and it will tell you what it is. I love this app because I listen to the radio a lot and I'm constantly going "I love this song! I wonder what it is..." I've used this app about ten times so far with 100% accuracy.
  • Wallpaper Set & Save: I like this app because it prevents the G1 from applying that annoying filter to an image before using it as a wallpaper. Translation: Get nice, crisp backgrounds by using this app to set your wallpaper with images on your SD card.
I have lots of other apps that I like - games too - but I'll post about those some other time. :D

Good tip on Shazam! I've been looking for an app that did this and Shazam works great and has identified songs that I would've never imagined it to get! Can't wait to see some good games. :D
