    I did a search for Pocket Weather on the market, second item on the list was Pocket Blonde. (And no, she didn't look like someone I wanted in my pocket).

  My current favourite is Where's My Water. I cannot believe how polished it is, and I've been playing it continuously since the 1st of December… http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/58569

    Hmmm, I got bored with that one pretty quickly.

    In general my most used would be Oz Weather. My most used game would be Battleship, or Plants vs Zombies which I am yet to finish so will keep playing until I do. For whenever I have to wait, I play Coin Frenzy, although it tends to crash a bit.

  Favourite is PowerAmp
  http://powerampapp.com/

  Once you've used this, you will probably never go back to using the stock Android music player / Doubletwist / Winamp or anything else.

    PowerAmp says it "plays songs from folders and from own library". I've got most of my music library on my phone (on a 64gb micro-SD), and organised in folders for genre/artist/album (or in the case of some of my classical music and compilation albums, genre/album).

    Can you browse by folder to select the album you wish to play in this kind of setup? I find WinAmp incredibly annoying; if I browse by genre it shows me individual tracks, if I browse by album I have to scroll through 860 entries to see which I feel like at the moment.

    I hate how iTunes has destroyed sensible and transparent standards for music storage on computers and devices.

      Yep, if you are the type of person who prefers to organise his/her own songs by putting them into folders PowerAmp is for you.

        Okay, you persuaded me to spend money. And yes, it looks pretty good.

  Bubble upnp, stream video from my nas or anything upnp, to tv/tablet/ps3 etc. does require codecs and a media player ie Mx player or mobo

    Thanks. Been using UPnPlay for a while and am now trying BubbleUPnP. The UI is quite a bit better.

  Favourite app at the moment? Doggcatcher.

  How much data does TuneIn chew up?

  • 

    mxyzptik on 12/02/2012 - 12:09

    I have just found out that data usage is recorded under "Settings" in the tunein app, so you can work this out for your personal usage.

    In my case I have used an average of 2.2GB Wi-Fi & 230Mb cellular a month for the last 10 months - and I'm a keen user.

  Since this thread got me browsing the market, I thought I'd have a look at Rdio. This wasn't available in Australia last time I looked, but it appears to now be available. Anyone tried it yet?

    There's a 7 day trial if you're interested.
