Evernote for Android - Share your notes anytime, anywhere

Taking notes is a very used feature on any phone, not just smartphones. People write down anything they need to remember into phone memos, on paper even on the palm of their hands :)











Evernote comes in handy by organizing the note taking part on your Android smartphone. First you need to create an Evernote account. They also have a paid Premium service which allows you to upload 1GB monthly to their service. For most users, the free account will do.

What is the deal with Evernote?

Well, Evernote is not just an app for Android, they have an app for whatever OS you can think of, even Symbian and Palm. There is an iOS app, there is a Windows app, Mac OS app, and even a Web app to access you notes an files whenever you want to.

Evernote is organized in notebooks. Each notebook contains notes, and each note can contain text, images, PDF documents and many more.

The Android app integrates with the sharing feature of Android so you can share anything from your device with the Evernote app as a note.

Another cool thing is the browser plugin which allows you to send web clips to your Evernote account.

Head over to the Market and give Evernote a try, it's free and worth your while.

Here is a video with the features added in the last version of Evernote for Android.

SD-Booster for Android - Speed up your SD card

Are bugged by how slow your Android phone opens up the Gallery? Does it take forever to see your picture's thumbnails?



Well, XDA developers member Akusari just released version 1.0.2 of his SD-Booster application. This app allows you to change the read ahead speed of your SD card. By default that speed is set at 128KB, so if you have large files on your SD card, they will be read 128KB at a time. If your images are say 1.5MB large, then it takes Android 12 to 13 read operations to get the file into memory. When you use SD booster to set the read ahead to say 512KB, Android will only perform 3 read operations to get the file. This app does not increase the reading speed of your SD card, it will only reduce the number operations involving the SD card.

This does not translate into higher speeds when reading files, but less reads mean longer SD card life.

You will need a rooted phone in order for this app to work.

Go ahead and give it a try. Download from Android Market

File Expert for Android - All you need to manage your files

I used to be a faithful user of Astro File Manager and ES File Explorer to do my daily file managing stuff. Now, each one of the aforementioned had it's pros and cons and I would have so much liked to frankenstein both of them into a single app. No I no longer need to use both of them, as there is an app in the market that does what I need and more.




File Expert by Geek Software Technology Inc is a file management software and much more rolled into one beautiful and easy to use app. An iPhone-esque interface that is just beautiful shows off most of the features you need on day to day use.
This app gives your the opportunity to also browse network drives from your local intra-net, as well as share your files the same way, via network share or web server.




You can exclude folders from media scanning, and you can even enable the root mode(in case you use a rooted phone) so that you can modify the system files freely. The application is skinable so you can download more skins if you don't like the default one.




The app also allows you to batch uninstall multiple apps and also to mount your local filesystem in read/write or read only modes.

One thing that I appreciate about File Expert is the lack of ads. They put up a popup first time you open the app where you can donate to them if you choose, and after that you won't see any ads or nags again.

This is one of the best apps I ever came across for Android.

Download it from Market and give it a try, I guarantee you it's worthed.

eBuddy for Android - must have messenger

Today we review the seasoned eBuddy messenger solution for Android. If you're tired of using Google Talk and Yahoo Messenger and Facebook and AIM(and so on) dedicated clients separately on your Android device, eBuddy brings them all into one convenient place. One login, all accounts available.




Why an all in one messenger? Well, first of all, RAM consumption. Having 3 or 4 messengers opened at once can quickly eat up the memory of your phone. Second, installation space: why waste precious phone storage to install 3 or 4 messengers when you can do the same thing with only one. You may ask why eBuddy? Well, besides being a well done and easy to use app for Android, eBuddy is available for all major platforms, iPhone, Android, Symbian and most phones who support Java. You can quickly download eBuddy for any new phone you may purchase, and with one login you're set.




The interface is easy to use and very clean. It has very good support for emoticons while all the ongoing chats are grouped under a separate tab in the interface.

Head over the market and give eBuddy a try. You will need an eBuddy account that you can obtain straight from the application itself.
