I don't have many android apps but few I'm using:
Facebook - rather using that than using browser for checking FB..waiting for events feed tho :P
Youtube - video/audio is sometimes badly out of sync, sometimes not, only using randomly, mostly for listening some songs.
Firefox for browsing
Shazam for recognising songs
Tapatalk for reading forums.
Thats pretty much it. I would probably use more if I bothered installing google play, got lots of apps there.

I installed:
- Viber
- WhatsApp
- Skype
- Spotify
- Speedtest
- and few games
I would like to install also Racechrono app, however, it does not want to install (and most likely it is not functional as it might not be able to use internal or external GPS).

I feel Android apps are so poorly written that consume so many resources of device. Perfectly defines inefficiency.

Firefox and Spotify are at the moment essential to me. Wouldn't carry the phone with me without them.
Also using the official Wikipedia app, YLE Areena and few games occasionally.

I have two at the moment:
Skype
Google Authenticator (I might try to write a native app for that, but I'm still at the "Getting to know the SDK"-Phase )

For me it's currently
- Spotify
- DB Navigator (I go by train often and trains are usually late in Germany)
- Amazon Kindle Reader
- Google Translator (great that it works offline, too)

I've installed whatsapp, but is almost unusable for me because it has no rights to read contacts from device, then my contacts list from wathsapp is empty, I can only write messages from conversations started by others .There is any way to enable the contacts for android apps?
Also, registering with sms code didn't work, I was forced to use the voice call from WA to get and enter the verification code.
