What Apps do people use? Any favourites that you have installed?

Yesterday I installed OS Locate, gives you your OS Grid Ref and is also a compass that is over layed over your camera.

Also got memory map with loads of OS maps installed which is cool.

Like the idea of dumping the app if you haven't used it for a while.

I used flight radar freebie to watch the canadian lanc when it came across back in August.

Just added a pole to see which is the most popular type of phone Apple or Android. I still haven't decided which I prefer.
