What applications to install on Android. How to properly set up an Android smartphone
Every owner of an Android tablet mostly uses it for the same purposes. This is watching movies, reading news, surfing the Internet and so on. So I decided to collect all the so-called “must-have” applications that everyone needs into one post. For beginners, I think it will be useful to familiarize yourself with the above list so as not to search required applications and by trial and error choose the best. I’ll say right away that we won’t talk about games, we’ll talk about them some other time :)
I will try to look at things as objectively as possible and choose an application not only because I like it, but because most users like it. And who doesn’t like the proposed program, pay attention to Alternative option. After describing the main application, I indicate its competitor, perhaps you will like it :)
I can’t imagine a tablet without Office. Whether you need to cheat on an exam or show important documents to a colleague, the program will help. She can show and edit files
text formats: DOC, DOCX, RTF, TXT
table formats: XLS, XLSX, CSV
presentation formats: PPT, PPTX, PPS, PPSX
and also: PDF, EML
In addition, OfficeSuitePro 6+ can open zip archives thanks to the built-in file manager, allows you to transfer required document directly from the application Wi-Fi Direct, mail or print. Able to work with cloud services GoogleDrive and DropBox. A great bonus is the built-in pdf converter. And it’s also cool that the application interface is in Russian.
The program allows you to save and play your text, graphic and voice notes, and to-do/task lists on other devices. It might look something like this: you started writing an article on the road, and then came home, sat down at your computer, your Evernote account synchronized, and you can open and continue writing the article that you started writing on your tablet while you were driving home.
This way, Evernote won't let you forget anything. The program client is available on iOS, Windows, MacOS and many others. There is also an online version.
Personally, I have never found a use for Evernote for myself. But many Android device owners really liked it. That's why I included it in the article.
I think I won’t be wrong if I assume that this situation happens to everyone: you found an interesting web page or video on the Internet, but you don’t have time to read/watch the material, because you have to go somewhere. And the maximum that you could do in this case was to re-visit the page you are interested in on your tablet on the road, spending not so little money for mobile Internet.
Now everything has become much simpler. You simply mark that you want to view this article or video in your browser, and it downloads to your tablet. Then, somewhere away from the Internet, you can enjoy the materials you need via Pocket. Moreover, without any advertising or unnecessary elements site like a navigation menu. It’s possible even without illustrations, it’s all customizable.
Well, where would we be without a file manager? FileManager HD is specially designed for tablets and supports all the functions necessary for such software: copy/paste, packing/unpacking archives, searching and transferring files, working with DropBox and GoogleDrive services, there is support for Root rights. It can also reproduce streaming video from the network, has a built-in text editor, swf player, gallery.
In my opinion, the best alternative desktop for Android. And many will agree with me. It comes by default with some custom firmware, and I liked it so much that now I always install it on any firmware.
There may be a lot, it’s impossible to count everything. If you are tired of the standard “bare” Android 4.X (and it does not work on Android 2.X and 3.X), just try Apex Launcher or its alternative, they are similar in many ways.
Awesome video player with hardware decoding. Can play all the most popular video formats, including subtitles. Adapted for multi-core devices. Convenient control brightness, volume, rewind and zoom gestures during video playback. Average rating of MX Player by users in Google store Play: 4.7 out of 5.
alternative: MoboPlayer, VLC
When purchasing a tablet, the happy owner of this miracle of technology can notice that the device already has basic set installed programs. However, this may not be enough for a more convenient and full use devices. The most necessary programs for the tablet will help you fully and fully use the TabletPC.
Google Chrome has long established itself as one of the best computer browsers, but its quality has not changed. With it, you can synchronize your browsing history between two devices, browse web pages in incognito mode and in offline mode, and also create new tabs.
Some devices, such as Nexus tablets, may have Chrome pre-installed. Other users will have to install it manually via Google Play.
Office Suite latest version
OfficeSuite contains the most complete office suite available. Allows you to edit and create documents Micosoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. Has easy intuitive interface, making editing even easier.
Are you planning to use it for? Then the FBReader app is perfect for you. This reader understands how the most known formats, as well as many lesser-known ones, such as ePub, fb2, mobi, html, etc. And the ability to customize color, font, page turning method and much more will give you the opportunity to make reading even more convenient.
Another program that migrated from the Android OS. KMPlayer is one of the best media players. Its main advantage is support and playback of all types of files. This program has an easy interface and wide functionality. There is support for gesture functions, the ability to create your own media library and much more.
Yandex.Navigator is useful for both drivers and vacationers and travelers. Using this program, you can find out your exact location, and take advantage of such features as: downloading maps, determining the traffic situation and getting directions to the desired location.
Yandex maps
We also recommend downloading Yandex.Maps along with Yandex.Navigator. These applications are similar in some functions, but still have differences. Maps are more necessary for viewing the details of the area, so it is recommended to have both applications.
There are many viruses that threaten your Android tablet. To prevent Android from becoming infected, you need to install an antivirus. Dr.Web Light can handle this task without any problems.
There is a paid and free version this antivirus. The free version has some limitations, while by purchasing the paid version you get full functionality and guaranteed security.
The file manager that was so popular on desktop computers, is now available on Android devices. WITH using Total Commander you can move and copy files, create and delete folders, as well as archive and unarchive data and much more. Having such great functionality, this program will undoubtedly be useful to tablet users.
Skype
This program does not need any special introduction, as it is very popular on computers. However, if you have not encountered it before, then I will say a few words about its main advantages. Skype allows you to make free voice and video calls to other users registered in this program, and exchange instant messages. And by paying a small amount, you can use the services of calls to home and mobile phones different countries at competitive prices.
In contact with
You are often on social media. networks?! Then I suggest you use the application to access your account on the social network of the same name. This application has the same functionality as the website version, making browsing with social. network even more convenient.
Unfortunately, not all Android tablets have a flash, but I would like to add Tiny Flashlight to the list of necessary programs. If you do have a flash on your device, then this program will be very useful to you. With its help, the flash turns into a flashlight. This could become useful function at night, or when the lights are turned off. In any case, this program will be used many times.
In conclusion, I would like to say that this list of programs for the tablet is compiled based on personal experience use, and the entire set is optional for installation. You'll probably find a lot more in the Google Play store interesting applications. Share your impressions and opinions on what programs are needed for, in the comments to the article.
Most people, when buying a smartphone, assume that they will be able to install many programs on it, improve performance and speed, but the main thing is to customize the phone to suit their needs. Flexibility of modern software is such that you can choose not just programs, but also individual firmware, both official and third-party. In this material, we would like to talk about the required minimum of programs for Android, each of them makes life easier - these are the best of the best. Some of these programs will suit you, some will not, but general idea You will receive information about what you can do with your device. Unfortunately, most smartphone users have no idea what can be done with them or how to change them. Let's try to correct this omission. Go.
What is root access and why do you need it?
Obtaining root rights for an Android smartphone is similar to administrator rights on a regular PC. You will be able to install any programs and perform almost any action with your phone. At your own risk, but as a rule, the right approach it's not scary and simple. If you don’t know why you might need root access, then I’ll give myself as an example. When I change phones often, I don’t want to have to transfer all the programs, settings, and data by hand each time. For this there is a program Titanium BackUp, it can save the state of the phone according to a certain schedule and I can actually create a clone of my device. Unfortunately, this program requires root rights to run.
Another example is built into my phone voice dialing from the manufacturer, which is rigidly tied to pressing the central key. Disable it using standard methods It’s impossible, but the number of erroneous clicks is huge and it’s annoying. Using root access, I simply uninstalled the corresponding program; I don’t need it. There are many such examples; with root access you get full control over the phone.
How and when to do it. Instructions for obtaining root access for specific models There are many phones on the Internet. I recommend that you carefully read the instructions for your phone and model. Also, you should understand that you will lose the warranty, and there is a chance of ruining the phone in an unfortunate set of circumstances. Also, when using most methods, you will be faced with the fact that all data on the phone will be deleted. Therefore, it is logical to decide whether you will root or not even before you completely set up the phone. Ideally, this should be done on a new device.
If you don’t even decide to root, then there’s nothing wrong with that; setting up your Android smartphone is very easy and without any special operations. Let's figure out how.
We customize the appearance of the phone - wallpaper, lock screen, skin
In Android, you can literally customize every element of your phone's appearance; no tricks are required for this. Let's start with something simple, choosing a wallpaper that will decorate your desktop. Considering that, as a rule, a large number of icons and widgets are placed on the desktop and they are often translucent, it is necessary to select light or dark pictures. Otherwise, you won't see important information. Since the pictures quickly become boring, I change them from time to time.
Android has excellent interactive or “live” wallpapers; these are animations that change depending on the time of day or events. Quickly looking through the list of such wallpapers on my phone, I found a dozen downloaded - a forest with trees in the snow, a sunrise, the core of the galaxy, a pond with fish and plants, weather for your city. As you can see, the choice is very large. I will not provide links to all these wallpapers, they are easy to find in Android Market and they are free.
Sometimes I get tired of animation and want something calm and new. In this case, the PicSpeed Wallpaper program comes to the rescue. It has several thousand wallpapers, you can set the picture in different modes– on one screen, on several, on several with an offset. No special movements are required; you can make a list of your favorite pictures. And again everything is free.

For those who are annoyed that after pressing the phone's power button, the unlock screen appears and you again have to make unnecessary movements, you can install a program for automatic unlocking (as an option, Auto Unlock from Iwashi Soft). For me this is not relevant, as it is always worth graphic key unlock (a standard security option on Android, you draw a pattern on the screen to unlock the phone). But even when using an unlock key, you can improve the ergonomics of the interface and add new functions. But more on that below, for now I’ll move on to the program, which I consider one of the most successful for Android -.
I don’t know why the best programs for Android don’t cost anything. This remains a mystery to me, since similar programs for other platforms simply do not exist as a class, and if they exist, they can do much less and are obscenely expensive. So, Go Launcher (there is an EX version of it, the second one is better), this is a shell that changes appearance your phone beyond recognition. Whether you need a different main menu, standby mode, unlock screen, etc., I don't know. For myself, I came to the conclusion that this program is vital for me and there are several reasons for this.
The first reason is that in the main menu you can create folders for programs that collect everything that I don’t need all the time. The second reason, which refutes the first, is that you can place a branded widget on Go Launcher desktops, which will have small application shortcuts and fast access to them. Workplace is distributed much better, and applications can be closed with one touch, as well as clearing the phone’s memory (moreover, you can specify which applications are not closed). It turns out that from now on I don’t need the main menu so often; I manage desktops.

I won’t say anything about how many design themes there are for this shell. You can configure it for any modern OS, you can choose completely unusual species desktop. But the main thing, perhaps, is not that the interface of this program is aesthetically close to me and it looks beautiful. It has many applications that enhance the capabilities of my device by an order of magnitude. For example, the first thing I installed was Go Locker, this is the unlock screen where you can select various actions and it can be designed in different ways. Copied as HTC Sense, both Android 4 and simply have their own unique options for this application.
A description of all the features of Go Launcher will take more than one page of text; the shell is very comfortable, fast and stable. A large number of widgets allow you to customize the device for yourself. I recommend the program with all my heart.
Contacts, calls, messages
For many people it becomes a revelation that it is possible to replace the standard phone book, a dialer, and also an application for sending messages. I'll start with a small utility - Russian Operators. When you call, the screen displays information about which operator’s number they are calling you from, and also indicates from which city or region. This is convenient when they call you from other cities, you will understand that you are calling back long-distance and pay accordingly.
IN Samsung phones The general list of calls is implemented rather inconveniently; it displays both SMS and voice calls. Considering that I receive a lot of SMS from social networks, using the phone becomes inconvenient. For me, the solution was the DW Contacts/DW Phone program. In this program, I am less interested in contacts and more interested in the dialer. First of all, a convenient list of calls, favorites, and so on. Unfortunately, the program does not have a very beautiful interface, which is somewhat annoying. But the functionality of this solution is very high. In particular, it is possible to configure call filters (black list), search by name and number, convenient presentation, integration with various messaging services (WhatsApp is built into the phone book). Another advantage is that you can search for information not only using regular fields, but also additional ones. Therefore, I made a Solomon decision, my contacts remained standard, but I use the DW Phone dialer.
My requirements for a messaging program are not very complicated. The need for individual alerts depending on the number, the ability to archive messages both on the phone and outside it, a private folder into which messages from certain recipients are automatically sent. The external attractiveness of the interface plays a role, but is not decisive.
It’s not at all surprising that I came across the Go SMS Pro program (it’s free, from the same developers who created Go Launcher). One of the disadvantages that must be mentioned right away is that the program has a very large set of settings and if you choose a mode with all the possibilities, it’s not the best weak phone will begin to slow down (which, in my opinion, is unacceptable). Therefore, we choose the simplest operating mode, since all options are available in it; you just have to go into the program menu to call it.
The appearance is customizable, there is a filter by words or sender number. It is possible to enter certain numbers into private folder, you must enter a password to access. The status line displays a message icon and a number indicating the total number of messages. System warnings can be replaced with those in the program. When typing, you can use a regular or pop-up window; there are additional sets of emoticons. The list goes on and on. I don't recommend using Go Chat, it is compatible with Facebook Chat, but in my case it caused speed issues.

Overall a Go program SMS Pro allows you to work with SMS/MMS at a qualitatively different level. Sometimes I like the presence of a blacklist, as well as the ability to remove notifications from network services, since I don’t need them.
In addition to this program, I use SMS Backup & Restore, a utility that allows you to save all your messages on a memory card. But SMS Backup to Gmail creates a copy of your correspondence on Gmail. Similar programs a lot, as a rule, the disadvantage of free ones is that they do not save MMS.
Mail and browser
Built-in email clients for Android are sufficient for most users, but you always want something better, don't you? For example, you can look at a program like ProfiMail, it came to Android from Symbian and is actively developing on this platform. The program is paid, so for many this will be a limitation. The program of our compatriot AquaMail has taken root with me. Limitation in demon paid version to two mailboxes (and I just need two), when sending, an inscription appears in the signature that this program was used (this does not annoy me, I write very little from my phone). Among the advantages that are obvious are support for filters, a fairly fast and easy interface. Functionally superior to Android programs, but the main thing is that the developer is constantly tweaking something and working on his program.

The situation with the browser is that there are several programs, but an alternative to Dolphin Browser HD has not yet appeared. The beauty of this browser is that it is fast, has many add-ons to suit every taste, automatically syncs bookmarks with your desktop browser, and can pretend to be a regular browser from your PC (which is important for browsing pages without switching to mobile versions). From additional features which you instantly get used to, I’ll note the control using gestures and quick access to certain pages. The browser also deserves a lot detailed review, for now I’ll just recommend him, he’s definitely the best. I didn't notice any problems with stability.

Music and radio
It seems to me that when discussing music it is difficult to find two people whose tastes coincide one hundred percent, it is possible that this feature of human nature is transferred to choice music players for your phones. What can you think of for regular player from what manufacturers have not implemented today? A lot, as practice shows. Considering that most of my music collection is stored in iTunes (a lot was purchased there), my initial question was how to synchronize these files from Android smartphones (the second iPhone phone, this question was not there initially). While searching for a player, I came across DoubleTwist, this program is getting better month by month. The free version has everything you need for life, including streaming music to gaming consoles and support for AirPlay, plus the ability to download tracks from iTunes from a PC (you can set a number of restrictions, for example, on volume). The program is nice and quite convenient; the paid version includes the download of Album Art, support for equalizers and a number of other goodies. But the free version is more than functional. Recently, the program has also included video viewing. Another plus is that you can download podcasts in the program (without a PC).

The second and favorite player is Power AMP, it is paid, but inexpensive (about 5 dollars). The advantages include support for a large number of formats and the presence of FLAC. I use it to listen to FLAC, although I sometimes use the equalizers here as they improve the sound. Externally, the player is pleasant, although sometimes it seems that it is a little heavy (when listening, there are slight brakes in the interface). What I use is downloading song lyrics (I use the MUSIXMATCH service). Overall a solid five, this player is one of the most popular for mobile devices.

To identify music that I heard somewhere and don’t know, I use two programs - Shazam and SoundHound. Their capabilities are equivalent, but greater additional options in SoundHound, you can immediately find a video on YouTube, learn more about the artists, and so on. In a word, I recommend it.
For listening to podcasts, there is a wonderful program called BeyondPod (paid), or you can use Pocket Casts (also paid - $3). Both programs are good, you can choose either one, they differ in details. In my experience, synchronizing podcasts from my PC is enough for me, although sometimes they need to be downloaded directly to my phone.

I won’t talk about Last.FM and other similar services; the applications are free and you can easily find them.
Healthy lifestyle and sports
A completely optional set of programs that everyone will have their own. However, I’ll still risk telling you about the programs that I like. I'll start with the Libra weight manager, it allows you to record your weight and shows how it changes. Enough convenient program, there is a widget. It’s very simply and tastefully done, nothing superfluous, which is what captivates.
