Hi.

I got a new phone with apps (\o/).

I was wondering what you guys believe are absolute must have apps that everyone should have on their phone, so I can get an idea of what else I need to install.

Already have the basics like Twitter, Tumblr and Line. I won't be downloading Skype because it eats battery. And I of course have Love Live, and five others (which are I think Kik, Pokemon Shuffle, Photobucket, Vent and We Heart It? Think I'm good? And then the bunch of apps that came with the phone, lmao. u_u

Uhh for Android, these are the apps I find pretty essential in my daily life:

- Swiftkey (alternative keyboard)
- Textra (to replace native text app)
- Silence/Do Not Disturb (can automatically set your phone to silent based on your calendar + nightly schedule)
- Twilight (flux for your phone)
- RealCalc (scientific calculator)
- Dropbox/Google Drive
- HD Widgets

And then for some social media I use apps that aren't the default because I hate the default. So for twitter I use Tsuitama, which is a Japanese app. And for reddit I use Reddit is Fun. :v

Lol I just got a new phone too! So I always love surfing internet but with low data usage so I choose opera mini. Besides I also use Facebook and WhatsApp for messaging. Since this is the first time I got a good spec phone so I have a lot things to discover

PS: my old phone is Samsung galaxy ace which is ok... but the battery sucks.

It's all up to your lifestyle on your gadgets. If you prefer more on gaming more, get some good game boosters and games out there (Free/paid/freemium) or workahllic should get google drive/dropbox and some productive apps.

Usually MX Player will do if it comes to watching anime because it will almost open every video available. I've been using it for quite long and it's a real treat.

And if you rooted your phone, I think it's best to have Helium ready, since it can back up most of the app files in case you want to move the app data from old phone to new one. I have tested it and find that it can back up several game data that I played successfully.

So I always love surfing internet but with low data usage so I choose opera mini.
I seconded that, this is a must have if you want to browse the net in the phone.

The emoji keyboard! It's something I use, and it's also something many other people use as well. It actually gives you a little tutorial of how to set it up. I'm not sure what kind of phone you have so... yeah. It should be available to you no matter what!
