My first smart phone....Galaxy SIII?

[Leonidas]

Are there any apps/widgets you just would not want to go without?

 

[SVTFreak]

Pandora. Weather Channel. Amazon. Kindle. Dare I say Facebook. Tapatalk. I also use unit converter a lot at work. SwiftKey keyboard since u am used to ios auto correct but the stock swipe typing is really cool.

I love the alarm widget. Has 4 alarms in one 1x2. Since I work shift, I have all my alarms in one spot easy to get to. Yeah lazy but nice.

I'm new to android as well so still learning.

Agree with most of what SVT said and want to echo the alarm widget. Love it. Also love the flashlight widget.

I have an iphone, but the main 2 for me are Tapatalk and flashlight.

If its not included already, google maps is a must.

Oh, as far as tapatalk, do you use the version 1 or the version 2?

Slacker over Pandora for me anyday. Seems their service is more reliable.

For me I will add Alarm Clock Xtreme and Radar Now which brings up the local weather radar loop centered on the phones position with just 1 click

Its a pretty awesome phone if you have a smart TV. Stream movies and send pics straight to the TV screen. You can even use the allshare app and retrieve things from you PC wirelessly.

Where's my droid. Strelok is a ballistics calculator. I also prefer Google chrome over the stock web browser. Sound hound for finding the names of songs. Winamp. And of course the chive... Just download the chive and you'll understand lol

Amazon Appstore has a different paid app for free everyday. Sometimes it's something crappy but I've gotten some good stuff off there for nothing, full version of SoundHound, for example.

I have a RazrHD and I use Slacker Radio's Rock Adrenaline channel for workouts, Tweetcaster for Twitter, and Motorola's Circles widget for clock, alarm, weather, and phone status all in one place.

 

[Leonidas]

I am grateful for everyone's input, but this is outstanding info. Probably would never have discovered it, on my own.

garden manager is also a good app if you do any vegetable gardens and such.. you can keep track of when you put down fertilizer and such... Also if you like listening to police scanners "scanner radio" is a good 1.
