- -this software costs about $50 and I never followed through with it so I don't know how well it works. I tried to use the trial for a short time, but gave up quickly after running into some problems.

Quickpic gallery viewer
Random Number Generator
RepligoReader
Shazam (app that recognizes songs and tells you the name)

- android app that turns on wifi when you are near a certain network
- actually, I don't know if I like this app. When I tried to use it, the app seemed kind of unpredictable at times and didn't always behave the way I expected/hoped. I uninstalled it.
SpeedTest
StopWatch & Timer+
Swype
Tape-a-Talk Pro (tapeatalk)
TeamViewer
TED
Tonido File Access Share Sync
Vevo

apps I might install in the future
- maybe whatsapp. . . 03-22-2015d1456
- -lot's of people use this in Spain. However, I see that I would have to pay $1 per year to use WhatsApp. I'm not sure if I want to do that. Perhaps I'll wait and see if I can continue to get by without WhatsApp. . 03-22-2015d1457
