Cool apps, pointless apps, wanted apps, and apps that you now can't live without. What are some of the apps you are playing with?

I got a Metal Detector app. Not as strong as airport screening, but it actually works. I haven't been able to figure out a legitimate use for having my own metal detector yet.

Honestly I dont know, just found it as an app when searching for stuff to replace the stuff Im bored with.
But I have checked it against a real police scaner for te local area and it was for real.

Is that the Sony w810i? I had that phone for nearly 3 years and would still be using it I didn't get a great upgrade deal.

The radio was nice, but being able to turn the camera flash into a light quickly became a more useful feature of the phone than it being able to make calls.

Makes calls, sends texts, that's it. I know, totally boring, but it does what I need it to do. May get a camera phone one day.

I have a steamy window app that my kids really like. It works just like a car window when it fogs up. You can write on it, try to clear it off, and have it refog is you blow on it. It also has little melted water drops that will roll down the screen for a nice added detail.

i don't have a phone that will take "apps"
but one i would have is the one that will
tell you the nearest public bathroom.

there are some strange ones out there.
did you hear about the one that's a baby
that you shake the phone until it gets Xs
in it's eyes?
the approval process for these this is frelled up!

That's actually pretty cool. Too bad we can't make it like a new parent test. If you shake your phone too hard or just turn it off to get the baby apprent to shut up, you can't be a parent. It could definitely replace home ec eggs

Saving app this weekend was the turn my phone into a phone app.turned off everything but the phone so I didn't kill the battery while trying to find a signal in the woods.

It left the compass on, though I'm too manly to use it when the sun is up :lol:

Based on a discussion in another thread, I downloaded a new cell locator app. If my phone is stolen, I can track it on a computer and go get it back myself...not that I would recommend taking matters into your own hands.

It also has a feature for finding a phone that I lost when it is on silent. It is supposed to make my phone scream until I find it. Considering my current location, I'm a little scared to try it.

I tried the screaming phone app. It works even then the phone is on silent. It was a cop siren that kept getting louder as if it was getting closer. Had a little trouble turning it off before it woke up the kids.

A somewhat useless app I found makes your phone act like a thumbprint scanner. When the phone locks, you place your thumb on the screen and it scans your print to unlock your phone. While that would be useful, all it really does is give you a countdown for when to remove your thumb. If you release too soon or too late, it pretends your thumbprint didn't match.

we had that, but the state kept saying we were fixing it. Not good to have the g-men think you are stealing tax money

reminds me of some sitcom I saw in the 80's (don't ask me what it was called)

on the paper there were some list of numbers, all the main characters ended up playing the numbers on the paper. They all won. Turned out everyone in the city played the same numbers and they all got about $50
