Latest Android App Reviews
Fieldrunners HD
As someone who has spent countless hours playing Robo Defense and Sentinel 3, I can safely say that I love tower defense games. So I was excited to review Fieldrunners HD, perhaps the most popular tower defense game on the Android Market. However, while Fieldrunners HD excels at the basics, it falls short in gameplay diversity and variation.
Zlango™ Messaging
Zlango Messaging is an application aimed squarely at teenagers, as it adds a plethora of custom icons to help make text messages "less dull."
Read It Later Pro
Read It Later (RIL) offers an easy way to create a reading list of articles that you didn’t have time to read when you first came across them (say, at work). You can add articles to your Read It Later queue from a host of desktop and Web applications, such as Google Chrome, Firefox, Pulse Reader, and almost 300 other apps.
Devil Ninja
In the appealing though not terribly creative Devil Ninja side-scrolling platform game, you try to make it as far as you can without dying.
Can Knockdown 2
Can Knockdown 2 is a collection of three minigames: In the first game, you get five balls, and face a bunch of cans neatly stacked on a shelf. You have to throw a ball at the cans and knock them down. Knock all the cans down (in one shot, ideally), and you can move to the next level.
Embiggen
Most smartphones have sizable screens these days, and Embiggen lets you use all of those pixels for displaying messages in very large type.
Adobe Photoshop Touch
Photoshop Touch is one of six new Touch Apps that Adobe has released for Android tablets running Honeycomb. It is designed to bring many of Photoshop's most popular features to Android tablets, allowing creative professionals to integrate these tablets into their mobile workflow.
Air Control
Air Control is a game very similar to Flight Control: An airfield sits in the center of the screen, and airplanes and helicopters enter from various screen edges. You have to tap an airplane and drag a line to its designated landing strip. The plane then changes its course to follow the line, and makes a successful landing (you hope).
Calorie Counter by FatSecret
Calorie Counter is a free and comprehensive food log app for Android. It provides several ways to keep track of what you eat and how much exercise you get, and to get a sense of how many calories you take in and burn off.
twicca
Twicca is a Twitter app for Android that's loaded with features, such as support for Twitter lists, image-upload resizing, color-coded labels, and sharing to other apps. Among other helpful functions, it offers reply history, reply auto-complete, saved searches, recent hashtags, quoted retweets, GPS location geotagging, notifications, Bit.ly link shortening, and image previews. You can also use the app to edit your profile and change your avatar image, and you can adjust the font size in Settings.
GUN BROS
Who doesn't like big, burly men shooting bad guys in outer space? Gun Bros offers exactly that: It's a universe-spanning bad-guy-shooting game full of cartoonish space marines blowing things up.
Poynt
Using the power of several different search engines, Poynt aims to deliver the most relevant and helpful information to you, though it often misses the mark.
Mobile Security Personal Edition
Your smartphone can be a treasure trove of private data, with everything from your bank-account information to your email and social-networking passwords stored inside. To keep that info from being nabbed by a malicious app or a sticky-fingered thief, Trend Micro's Mobile Security App keeps your personal data under control in a number of ways.
Cut the Rope
Chillingo's Cut the Rope has all the marks of a winning mobile app--it's a physics-based puzzler with simple, intuitive controls, and it stars an adorable lead character. This cutesy puzzler premiered on iOS, but it has finally made its way to Android.
Dragon Hunter II
If you like tower defense titles, the free Dragon Hunter II is worth checking out. You're a lone soldier defending your castle from an onslaught of air- and sea-dragons. You start out with a simple bow and arrow, but later you'll have the chance to obtain more-advanced weapons.
