Here’s some more reader application suggestions as contributed last week:
Zenon reckons Flyscreen for Android is worth looking at: “Easy access to frequently used widgets and web bookmarks without having to unlock phone. Found out about it via this week in Android podcast.”
Yatin rates AdvanceSMS, found on the Ovi Store: “I was particularly looking for an app which allows me to program SMS for to be sent later at a pre-determined date and time. I work with people across multiple time zones, and I found it more polite to send a SMS when it doesnt disturb them in the night, but I can program it before I go to sleep and it gets sent at just the right time. The interface is simple and easy to use, and integrates well with the phonebook. There are other features too, like password protected SMS, but I haven’t had the need to use that (yet)!”
Vladimir highlights Opera Mobile 10 on all platforms: “IMHO, it’s very likely the best mobile browser around. Period. It also works and looks the same across platforms (S60, Android, Java). Having said all that I am looking froward to the next incarnation of Nokia’s own S60 browser!
”
Steve likes Ubertwitter on BlackBerry: “Found it via Google. Does what is says on the tin.”
Another Steve — Steve Bannister — explains why JoikuSpot Pro is the nuts: “I was stuck in a French Gite with no other internet connectivity when a software licence expired, I used this to connect my MacBook and update my license. I’d used the free version previously but downloaded the pro version from the Ovi Store.”
Tim reckons Google Mobile Search is the way ahead: “I realize this isn’t very original, but I love the voice search. I use my phone constantly while driving and this feature works exceptionally well. The voice recognition is better than any other I’ve used (and I used to work for a company with voice recognition within it’s app, so I’ve tried most of them). I am constantly impressed by it’s ability to recognize even abbreviations. The localized results are also obviously helpful. This app will be passed by in the “my favorite app category” later this summer when my own company, Thump Games launches its first app, but for now you get my unbiased opinion.”
(Look forward to the release, Tim!)
And finally, Vasco recommends Newsy for iPhone: “Found it through genius recommendations (and through Chomp app) Rocks on the iPad“
