The 2011 Android App Guide: Winter Edition from £9.99 £

Discover the must-have and best avoided apps in our expert guide!

At last count there were more than 100,000 applications that can be downloaded to your Android tablet or handset. Unlike Apple, Android’s platform is open-source, which means that anyone with the creative spark and technical know-how can create their own app and share it with the rest of the world via its online app store, Android Market. This, of course, can be both good and bad. On the plus side, it means that there are more apps than you’ve got time to explore. The down side is that the quality of them varies wildly.

This is where The 2011 Android App Guide: Winter Edition comes in. A team of experts has spent hours sifting through the thousands of apps available on the Android Market, separating the must-haves from those that are best-avoided so that you can fill your phone with the finest time-fillers and tools.

For anyone new to Android there’s a helpful guide to Android Market and how to access it on page 8. For those who know what they’re doing, the reviews start on page 12. The apps have also been split into five categories to make it easier to find what you’re after. You can also find our roundup of the best Android handsets and tablets on page 174.

It might sound like the future, but it’s ridiculously easy and Digital Home Entertainment will show you how!

This guide caters for complete beginners in the buying advice pages (from page 6) where all the basics are explained. Armed with this expertise, you’re better equipped to start reading the reviews (starting on page 28).
