Most of the fun that comes with owning a smart phone comes from playing with all of the applications. It doesn't seem to matter which brand of smart phone you buy--there are apps being developed for just about all of the different smart phones on the market. Android users, in particular, have a large library of apps to play with.
Applications come in both free and paid varieties. Many smart phone users stick with the free applications. There are, of course, some paid apps that are worth much more than their retail prices. There are plenty of paid apps out there that are very much worth their asking prices. Here are some of the best top paid Android applications.
Wave Secure is a paid Android application that costs about twenty dollars per year. Security is the main idea behind the paid app. If you lose the phone or someone steals it, the app will lock the phone and then use the GPS system to help you track it down. It even sends out text help and alerts to you if the thief tries to put in his or her own SIM card. It also backs up your phone's data. The app can also be used via remote contact to wipe the phone which helps ensure that if it is stolen, nobody else can use it. Jewellust is one of the most popular paid game applications for the Android phone. You move some jewels, compile mosaic tiles and adventure through the ancient Pyramids in an undertaking to discover the Pharaoh's caches of good fortune. As you learn about the game you play in "Campaign" mode. When you feel like you're getting good at the game, you can play in "Survival" mode. This provides you with unlimited play and keeps track of your score for every game you play. Game applications can be an excellent time waster when you are waiting around somewhere or when you have some unexpected free time.
PhonePlus Callback might seem like an "extra" instead of a "must have" but it is great for people who don't want to feel like they are rude if they have to refuse a call. Three dollars is all you will pay for this app. The basic idea here is that the application sends text messages of apology to each phone number that you refuse to answer. This way you don't have to worry about looking rude if someone calls when you cannot answer the phone. If the caller isn't calling from a cell phone, the app will send an e-mail.
It's hard to figure out which of the paid applications are best. If you are like the average smart phone user, you probably won't venture into the paid app market until you've definitively proven that the free app market doesn't have what you need.
For the most part, the paid apps are sold for very fair prices. Most people use apps for entertainment or to make their lives easier. Wouldn't you pay a dollar or two for that?
