By | February 21, 2012, 3:45am PST

Summary: These apps for Android tablets provide both content consumption capabilities as expected, but also make it a breeze to create content.

It has been a while since I shared my top apps for the Android tablet so no time like the present. This list contains the apps I spend most of my Android tablet time using, and includes some familiar apps and some not so well-known.

I use my Android tablets as content consumption devices like most, so the list has a few entertainment apps. I also use my tablets for serious work, so there are some good productivity apps on the list. These are the apps I use most but they won’t be for everyone.

What are your favorite Android tablet apps? Leave a comment sharing them, and why you like them.
