The officially unofficial "Optimized For Honeycomb" List (n=292)

Re: The officially unofficial "Optimized For Honeycomb" Apps List

BTW, I've decided to rename my honeycomb app to "Netflix Guide HD" to make it easier for people to find in the android market. With the old name, if you searched on the exact title, my app would show up about 8th or 9th in the list. Hopefully with the new name, people would be able to find it.

Would you mind adding Netflix Guide HD to your list?

Thanks

Can you add my recently released "What To Watch On Netflix" app? It's a Netflix discovery app, designed specifically for Honeycomb tablets. Here is the link: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.greggreno.whattowatch

Re: The officially unofficial "Optimized For Honeycomb" Apps List

I know there have been several threads asking what apps are optimized for tablets, but I thought a definitive list along with market links is in order.

Obviously, for right now the majority of these happen to be listed as "tablet" applications on the Xoom's market. That said, I've found at least several that are properly optimized for tablets/3.0 that aren't specifically listed as such. If you find any others, I'll update them to the list.

***NOTE***
I can not vouch for the quality or functionality of any apps here. While I have installed and ran most of the free ones, I am going off of your recommendations, user reviews, and developer screenshots/features lists for most of the paid apps.

NUMBER OF APPS ON LIST AS OF LAST UPDATE: 232

Re: The officially unofficial "Optimized For Honeycomb" List (n=2

The B&N Nook app is still missing. It's Honeycomb-optimized now (they just haven't posted updated screenshots in the Market).

Also, we should decide how we are going to handle apps that aren't HC-optimized but scale well and work well on the larger screen. I'm thinking specifically of games such as Plants -vs- Zombies, Peggle, and Doodle Fit. All work very well on, say, a Xoom (in fact I much prefer using them on a Xoom than on a phone).

Perfect Viewer is a comic reader and it works perfectly on a tablet, in my opinion the best comic reader on android market.

Mango is a free, ad-supported manga (Japanese comics) reader for Android. Choose from a huge library of thousands of fan-translated manga

Re: The officially unofficial "Optimized For Honeycomb" List (n=2

Actually Komik is the best comic viewer for Honeycomb imo. You should totally add this to the list.

The Android version required is 3.0 and up. And it's the best so far because it actually adds some hardware acceleration. Reading my manga is almost seamless because it is so much smoother than the competition. And the best thing is that it auto detects and rotates dual pages to landscape while keeping single pages to portrait which is I think the best way to read my comics. This has replaced Perfect Viewer as my comic reader.

Open Manager for Tablets... not ready for prime time.

Nice attempt, but needs the ability to recognize the appropriate apps for the files. If you click on a .ppt file, it gives you a list of all your apps to open it. It does not recognize which apps are appropriate for that particular file. This is handled well by several other file apps. I like the graphics and layout, but just can't live with the annoyance of scrolling through all my apps to find the appropriate one to open a .doc file. Ridiculous.

I have googled it to no end trying to find a list of, `scales well/no leaks` apps, let us know if you eun across such a list.

Actually Komik is the best comic viewer for Honeycomb imo. You should totally add this to the list.

Komik has been on the list for a while. It should probably be moved from the "Misc Apps" section to the "Book/Magazine Apps" section where the other comic reader apps are listed.

I believe nook has been optimized for honeycomb but I could be wrong. Either way it works great in tablets.
