Disclaimer: I'm going to be updating this list in the next 72h with a 25 of 10(10 categories), or top 50 of 10. I've been using android for a while now and I've found some good gold mines. We can't have this as a sticky but hopefully when the Priv comes out some of us can refer to this list and customize our Priv's the way we want. I'll also be doing a write up for each app and the pros and cons of each app. Tell me what else you'd like to see, this will definitively be a group effort.

- For media nothing beats power amp!
Microsoft Lens is good for scanning with your camera to PDF, and it's free. And for cleaning tools, I use SDMaid pro.10-14-15 10:49 AMLike 0 - I second the vote for Remember integration. It is the basis for my calender/email/notes/tasks integration.

I've been trying to get this working on my phone for the longest time and I only end up with the older Office. How can a productivity phone not have the Office Suite?
Also this looks interesting, to use that 18MP camera: Office Lens https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ice.officelensguygardner73 and JGoodard like this.10-14-15 07:22 PMLike 2
