What are your must have Nexus 7 Apps?

[heyitsruss]

Just got my Nexus 7 yesterday and it really did surpass my expectations. Basically replaced my laptop and my iphone for everything but making calls. Love how i can manage my website all from my tablet. But my Nexus is pretty empty, what are some of your must have apps?

I just ordered mine this morning so it should arrive Saturday.
This is exactly the type of thread I was looking for

I'm definitely gonna have Hulu and Netflix on there but I'm not too sold on games on my mobile devices yet. I've bought many and tried them, but never really liked them on my phones. Maybe my first tablet will change that though.

Let's hear some other great apps.

World of Goo and Plants Vs Zombies were great games I played on various tablets and phones in the past. You should give those a try. It's almost like they made the games for this type of interface.

Flixster is good if you have Ultraviolet movies.

It works for me. Though I do download them first, haven't tried streaming.

Nope just tried again. It won even let me get to a point to download them. When I click on episodes it just tells me there that feature is not available and go to flixster .com to watch them.

It might be due to them not having an agreement with the particular studios (yet) that you have movies for. I'll check what studios my movies are from after work.

Edit: Are you rooted, that might be a reason it isn't working too.

Update: I have movies from Universal, New Line and Warner Brothers. I have some other movies that I'm not sure of the studios.

Must have apps for my new Nexus 7:

• SwiftKey 3 (for Phones) - Makes typing that much faster.
• Titanium Backup - If you upgrade your ROM often, this is a must!
• Aldiko eBook Reader - Best eBook Reader (FBReader is a close 2nd)
• DosBox Turbo Emulator - I tried them all, this is the fastest DOS emulator for Android! It can even play Half-Life (by running Win98)
• DropBox - Easier to get more free space than with Google Drive.

For me it Tablet Talk, Kindle, Groceryiq, Facebook, Pandora, GoMarks and Tapatalk.

DeskSMS/TabletSMS combo. I tried Tablet talk but it was too annoying having to have them "paired". This app has desktop/tablet syncing that works flawlessly without even needing your phone near you. It costs five bucks a month after two week trial but it's worth it to me.

Camera Launcher for Nexus 7 of course!
Amazon Appstore - free app every day!
Tegra Zone - find games for Tegra
Weather Bug
Google Voice - so you can not worry about your phone and just leave it in the other room, at least receive voicemails depending on how much you've configured Voice
Ultimate Rotation Control (home screen landscape!)
Flow Free - addicting game
