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

Tapatalk works great and so does google TV remote if you have google TV. They are not in optimized but work great. I do find some don't work right or fill the screen.

I mostly like tapatalk but I can't get it to open market links. Everytime I click on a link in this thread it opens the browser and takes me to some search page instead of opening the market

It looks like the Market has been updated to show more in the tablet apps section. However, Kindle is in there when I know for a fact it's just a blown up phone version and not a tablet optimized one. They betterbe working on making that app look like Google Books.

They also fixed an issue with searching on "Tablet", something I reported to them earlier this week. As of today, you can now search on "Tablet" in the Market app and indeed can scroll through more than a page of results. I love that they are so responsive!

Soundhound got updated and takes real good advantage of the increased screen real estate!

Is this better than Shazam?

DoubleTwist ?

There was an update for DoubleTwist Player today for Honeycomb. I don't have a Xoom, so I can't say how well it works. Just thought I'd pass it along - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.doubleTwist.androidPlayer

Just tried this app out and just unclicked the compatibility option. All the apps that I had that oppened cell phone size is now full screened for the xoom.

I was kinda put off by hardwood spades telling me I had to be billed quarterly to play online. I refunded it, but it looked pretty good on xoom screen.

Yes it is. Pretty sure you get unlimited tags in the free version as well.

Doubletwist updated with Honeycomb support

I don't know if anyone mentioned "Parallel Kingdom" but it works great on the Xoom. The game uses Google maps as the "world" and uses the GPS to start you off in the world at your location. I'm not sure if it would be considered to be optimized but it works well except for a small issue i noticed. When clicking on a item in game you have to click just above the item instead of on the item.

If anyone interested in trying this game you can use this referral code "mihhi" (no quotes) to get 1000 gold to start off with.

Volume Widget has been upgraded for use in Honeycomb - nice to not have to reach for the volume buttons!

Works much better now on the XOOM. I used it quite a bit today.

I don't see it in the market unless it goes by another name?

I'm getting the incompatible message on my Xoom

That's weird. I installed it from the market. I have been using since the xoom launch.

[DerekMorr]

Glad to hear. What did they change? Could you post a screenshot ?

 

[NHBass39]

Can't take screen shots on the xoom without the use of a computer. Galaxy tab you can.

Try using Dalvik Debug Manager, in the SDK, under Tools.
