What is your single favorite app?

I will be boring and say Google Maps with Nav. Others are very good but with so many features good ol' Maps takes it for me.

Now I'm off to try screebl.

That, in combination with Voice Search, are what truly make the Droid unique. No other phone comes close...

I like Screebl. It keeps your phone from locking when you hold it in a working position, but if you move it to an unusual position, like flat, it will do a normal lock.

Kind of hard to describe. Try it and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Does it affect the black out during phone calls?

It has a setting for that.

PandaHome!!

You can have six launchers pop out from the sides of the screen that can either remain on the screen or scroll back to invisible when you're not using them.

I have a pop up launcher that scrolls in from the right that's 1x wide and vertically stretches the entire screen: all main phone shortcuts I stored here (phone, contacts, messaging, browser, settings)

My second launcher is 1x tall and stretches horizontally across the entire screen: It has my five most important contacts as a 'direct dial' shortcut.

You can place any shortcut icon onto any of the launchers, and you can make all 6 launchers as wide/narrow, short/tall as you like!

It also supports a total of 12 screens!

Best FREE app by far, in my opinion

DroidForums.net - Phone might as be a brick without it.

1) Home ++. Amazing, free, being updated all the time with great new additions. For those who don't know it replaces your Home screen with a much better one.

2) K-9 Mail - Email is junk on this phone unless you use K-9 Mail. It gives you the functionality of near blackberry proportions. Add Email Popup - Self explanatory.

Quick question - K-9 looks very useful. Does it have a widget or similar that will sit on the home screen and show you your current unread number of emails (off exchange server in my case). I know it can incorporate Email Popup, but I'm thinking of just a small icon/widget with a number that you can touch to open the client and view the messages

Facebook app it too addicting looking at everyone's status updates every 5 minutes..

Home++ is a must have. Google Sky is very cool to play with if you like star gazing. Handcent for the best SMS texting.

PandaHome, Screebl and App Organizer

For me, it's a tie between Google Maps/Navigation and Shortyz. Nav keeps me from getting lost and Shortyz helps me lose myself in a sea of words when I don't particularly want to be where I am.

Shazam is one of my favorites. Finds that music you hear but don't know who it is. Still amazes me each time it finds the song and it hasn't failed yet.

The popup application that I downloaded a few days ago hasn't been working since I downloaded screebl.

As far as notifications go I just use the top bar - it shows when you have a new email and then you can pull it down to go right to it. I will show all your different accounts when you pull it down to see where the emails are. It also has an option to mark all read in each box so you can keep it clean.

There have been a bunch of minor updates to Screebl, maybe he's done now. Remember to restart the app after you update.
