السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته

الحمد لله  we have a few great threads on Mobile devices, but dedicated for each topic.

Please post Islamic Apps in appropriate threads Android - iPhone - Windows

This thread will be dedicated to NON ISLAMIC APPS but those which can be very beneficial to others. Please try not to post apps that are only beneficial to certain locals, for example, there is no need of posting a local Taxi app, if it cant be used by the rest of the Androind users around the world. However, some app will not work on certain handsets, but thats down to specs.

If possible please give a brief description of each app, so we can work out if we should download it or not.

I would also ask our iPhone and Windows users to start a thread on similar topics, otherwise I will have to dust my iPhone and start it my self, just kidding!

جزاك الله خيرا

PS

Androids have something called widgets, so many of these apps can be used as widgets too

Magnetic Field is used in many areas like metal detection and compass, which bring us lot convenience in our life.

- Pressure

For better performances, sensors are usually used together. Check out the live demonstration inside the application! Any feedback the email address below is the best way to get in touch with us.
