Cell Phone/Smart Phone Apps

[BigBusBob]

Ok, I did not see a thread with a title that has "Apps" in it... Here's the question/subject...

Cell phone Apps, and/or Smart Phone Apps- which ones help you? which do not? Which ones can you live with out? Which ones can you NOT Live With Out???

I recently got a Motorola Smart Phone, which is like learning a new language to a certain degree. I downloaded an Alarm Clock, and a Task Manager app. and a scanner app so I can get prices off of bar codes without having to ask somebody... however so far that scanner app seems to either not find a product, or get me prices of the item from websites or other stores.

So, there's some food apps, and map apps I've been looking at-but I'm sort of- not cheap, just "Careful" so I only look at FREE Apps. Careful sounds better.
What trucking apps do you like? what do you find you use on your smart phone the most??

And, I will throw in the wi-fi issue on a Smart Phone, do you utilize that? using wi-fi on your phone to utilize data?

That's all.

Yeah, Bob. A lot of those threads are in the forum called the Tech Shop. In the third group of forums below the general forums.

My phone is really smart! It rings, I flip it open and say, "Hello" .... and it talks to me! I like that!

If you wish a computer, get a laptop, this ain't Star Trek ... well not yet anyway!

Or use a smartphone. No need for a laptop in my trucks

So I looked at some of those posts and their replies... some of which are over 2 and 3 years old. GasBuddy seems popular, Poynt is another one that is a search engine app for fuel and food. What are some other current apps that people are using on their Smart Phones??

Also, does anybody utilize Wi-Fi with their cell phone?
Thank you.
