Must Have DroidX Applications

I have ordered my X and am patiently waiting for it. Coming from WM TP2, this is my first Android device.

For those of you who have favorite top 10 droid apps, please post them here. Normally, I would start off the thread with my picks, but I have none yet

Re: Must Have DroidX Applications

Hi. I too just moved from the TP2 to the DX. I is my first android phone as well. I don't have 10 favorites but these are the ones I wanted most.

Rock Player: I loved CorePlayer for playing Divx movies & flash video. The DX's screen is WAY better.
Slacker Radio: My favorite internet radio

I'm still trying out some other apps & I recommend that you do the same. The marketplace has a ton of 'em.

Re: Must Have DroidX Applications

we have a lot in common, i too dropped my tp2 for the Droid X (my 1st android phone) and i am absolutely loving it. Seems like everything is just snappy and works. These may not be the best apps out there but its ones that i got so far to fit my needs

1. Digital Clock widget (for my homescreen...i am just use to seeing the time at all time)
2. Convertpad
3. Google earth (very cool to actually have on a phone)
4. Google sky
5. Where is my droid (app that allows you to txt you phone using another device if its lost and on silent. The txt will chnage it too full ringer volume and let it ring so u can find your phone)
6. Retro Radio (allows me to listen to any shoutcast station)
7. Compass (just cause its got the magnetic thing)
8. Shopsavvy

Re: Must Have DroidX Applications

Anyone try Launcher Pro yet? If so, please let us know what you think. So far, this looks like the first app I will try once my X arrives.

Using it and loving it, works great on the X. The Moto widgets don't really work with it, but that's minor imo.

jmorton10,

What Digital Clock and Weather widget(s) did you
come across to resemble Sense 2.5?

Much Thanks in advance.

All the Best!

Beautiful Widgets & 'Weather & Toggle' Widgets are both paid apps (less than $2.00) that do a great job of looking like sense and also have a ton of free skins to look like almost anything.
'Fancy Widget' is a free one that looks just like sense paddle clock & gps based weather. It's been forced off the market by HTC, but is still floating around via torrent I hear.
