Good Android apps for the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1

Summary: I have been using the Galaxy Note 10.1 for a few weeks and find the big screen is great for most apps. This is a collection of some really good ones including some apps preinstalled on the Galaxy.

gReader Pro

Google Reader is going away, but until then, I am using it as heavily as ever. The gReader Pro app is a good way to work with the many RSS news feeds I follow, and the multiple column display is tailor-made for the Galaxy Note 10.1

This app also works well in multiview on the Note 10.1, and I often use it on the right pane with another app in a narrow pane on the left.

  • Clock widget

    What is that clock/weather widget you are using on the first screen shot?

  • HD Widgets

    A great collection of widgets for both phones and tablets. Another similar good set of widgets is Beautiful Widgets. That comes with the live wallpaper I'm using in that screen shot.

  • Value Add Apps

    I rarely comment on anything but was disappointed in this list. Almost all of these are included apps. The list is really remiss to not have included SketchBook for drawing/sketching and LectureNotes for taking handwritten notes. I liken SNote to how I use a sticky note and LectureNotes to a real notebook for meeting notes, ideas, etc.

    For a PIM PocketInformant 3 is superior to SPlanner I think in every way imaginable.

    • Missed your PI2 Screenshot

      But still worth mentioning PI3 and Lecture Notes.
