Android Utilities – Tasks, Maps and Train Times
Fans of the Android smart phone have been enjoying the many apps and extra features that are available for the Android handset. Here are three choice Android apps that users will certainly appreciate on the Android smart phone.
First up the list is the Task Manager. There is a significant chance that your smart phone is being bogged down by apps and functions that you do not use or need –causing the device to act erratically or even slow down when you need to do something quick. And while computers will easily let you shut down any unneeded functions, the feature is not commonly found in smart phones, which means that precious resources could be gobbled up by hiding apps.
The Task Manager is an Android app dedicated to fishing out those hidden apps running in the background so that you can shut them down. The only drawback is that users need to manually do the process for each boot up.
Train Times UK is one of our favorite apps as it keeps users on time all the time. Missing a train is a serious problem when you are pressed for time and with this app, you can stay on top of the schedule by actually knowing when each train will making specific stops. Since the app connects to the live online timetables for UK train operators, most of the data is accurate –still, for very important matters, it still pays off to give the operators a quick call to confirm a schedule.
Last on our list of Android Apps is the Google Maps Navigation app. Chances are, you might have already gotten this app right after Google announced that they are delivering free voice guided navigation. Compatible for version 1.6 Donut and above, this impressive app combines the vast data stored in Google maps with Street View and GPS data.
