My best Android apps (updated)

Although many people thought Android came to save us from the darkness, I think this OS is not an step ahead but in my humble opinion it is more like reinventing the wheel, losing much time to create the same, and this new apps are not multiplatform..

Probably this is the best choice for a private company interested in doing the maximum of money but hardly it could be worse for users and progress

Anyway anyone said it were a perfect world....
