HEy Guyz!
Everyone loves free stuff.
And there's plenty of it on Android, with more than 927,000 free apps available in the Google Play store right now.
But a word of warning - much of it is rubbish: a frustrating mix of non-official rip-offs, shonkily designed bedroom projects
Fortunately, for every 10 bad apps there's at least one good one. Which still leaves 92,700 good apps out there. We'll be honest, we've not tried all of them - but we have rounded up 35 crackers for you here. Read on, download and enjoy.
here is the List of my favorite apps of android.
The core app can do all this with a data connection, and language packs can be downloaded for free so you can use it abroad without the need for Wi-Fi or the fear of roaming data charges.

You can load it with paid extras if you like, but it's fine as it is. Download the local variant for any country you're visiting before you leave and you'll always have a map and a sat-nav tool at your hip.

You point your phone or tablet at a scene (say, your office, the street or your garden), and then the app records a short video clip with a destructive missile attack or perhaps a hovering UFO superimposed over the live action. Motion tracking allows you to pan as you film, too.

1. GOOGLE TRANSLATE
We've seen a few clever translation apps in our time, but recently Google Translate has crushed them all. It now offers (sometimes clunky, word-for-word) translations of over 70 languages with input via text, handwritten words or symbols, spoken words or even text recognition via the camera. It can then give you the translation in the form of text or speak it for you. i like this app.
The core app can do all this with a data connection, and language packs can be downloaded for free so you can use it abroad without the need for Wi-Fi or the fear of roaming data charges.

2.Navfree
Here is another version of free app. You've got Google Maps already and that's lovely. However, that relies on a data connection, which isn't always available even in your home nation and will sting you with ludicrous charges abroad. Navfree is based on an open-source map database and provides mapping and voice-guided sat-nav for no cash at all.You can load it with paid extras if you like, but it's fine as it is. Download the local variant for any country you're visiting before you leave and you'll always have a map and a sat-nav tool at your hip.

3.Hangouts
"Hey! Who wants brunch at Choochies today?" "Count me in! I've got
tickets to the Nicks game, wanna come too?" Etc. Alternatively you can
use Hangouts to message friends via text, video and emoticon-style
"emojis" in a more realistic manner. "Train cancelled again", or "Dad,
get on the video call so you can show me how to fix the boiler". That
sort of thing. Woah! Hangouts rocks!

4.FxGuru: Movie FX Director
This slightly gimmicky special effects app is nonetheless very clever, verging on useful. It comes with a batch of free effects (the kind of things you'd see in a disaster movie) with additional packs as in-app purchases.You point your phone or tablet at a scene (say, your office, the street or your garden), and then the app records a short video clip with a destructive missile attack or perhaps a hovering UFO superimposed over the live action. Motion tracking allows you to pan as you film, too.

5.SoundCloud
SoundCloud is great because it's not just the same old music rehashed in
a new, futile money-making shell. It does hold a lot of full-length
commercial tracks but it's the unique user-generated music that makes it
special. That means DJ mixes, remixes, cover versions, live recordings
and recitals, snippets, sounds and spoken word contibutions. If you want
to listen beyond the sphere of Spotify, cock your ear this way.
6. VLC For Android Beta
Wouldn't it be lovely if there was one video format to rule them all,
like MP3 is to music? Well, dream on... Until that day you'll be
thankful for VLC, which aims to play every video format you'll ever
encounter. If you like to source your movies from varied locations
you'll find this one of the most useful apps on your phone or tablet.
It's ad-free and doesn't try to harvest all your personal data either,
which makes a nice change.
7.Dropbox
As Android moves closer to home computer territory, syncing photos,
music and work documents is increasingly important. As a free service,
Dropbox offers 2GB of pleasingly simple online storage which is
automatically synced whenever you log in from any of your devices – very
useful for occassional file transfers, semi-permanent documents and
shared folders. The Android app is nothing fancy but it doesn't need to
be, getting the job done without fuss.
8.WiFi File Transfer
Google's liberal management of the Play store leads to some strange
situations, such as the presence of six apps with exactly the same name.
Here we're referring to the one developed by smarterDroid. We find it
the easiest way to move files wirelessly to and from a computer and an
Android device on an ad-hoc basis. The free version has a file size
limit of 5MB, but you can buy the full, unlimited version for £0.88.
9.Vine
One of the best ways to get your fix of LOLs is to flick your way
through Vine's stream of micro-movies. The quality is always going to
vary, but the way the app delivers them is beautifully quick and simple.
Just check out your feed or do a search (say, #skatefails), then enjoy a
string of LOLable 4-second loops. Maybe even upload a few of your own.
