What App's are you using you want to share with the rest of us.?

[original PM]

I'll start

Try 'Word Lens' Free for the moment - its superb

Position your phones camera over a Menu, page in a book, hold it up to a road sign and it will translate into English (or vice versa) from several lauguages. - Its Fab

Google have just purchased them so only free for a short time.

What else are we missing.?

Google goggles will do that - and much more! Take a photo of a building and assuming you have a data contract it will tell you what buuilding you are looking at and then give you links to various websites - real useful if you like a bit of urban exploring.

Also got the Jalvasco world cup app - not sure if it the best one but....

Slightly OT but related - what is the best Sat Nav app at the moment?

I need real time data about jams etc. and the ability to be shown different routes to avoid it, my new commute will potentially span 3 motorways so I have a lot of options but need to know which ones to take!

I like the tomtom hd live app for android £50 first year £25 thereafter. It's paid for itself quickly enough from my point of view. If there is a criticism it is that the route calculator reduced to a 100 miles (or some such figure). I guess the makers thought that you can determine an alternative route with a 100 miles notice (some believe that this is debatable).

My toyota's got in built sat-nav with real-time traffic alerts (from radio channels) and it's not so great. The tomtom uses historical and mobile phone data (sets registering at base stations - vodafone I think) and seems more accurate.

Me too - the traffic alert seems to be half an hour out of date or something.

I've got built in SatNav in my car but I have Co-pilot on my phone since I paid for the maps years ago. It's still a good system for a reasonable price and I think it's £10 a year subscription for the live traffic updates.

The maps are downloaded onto your phone so you don't need a mobile signal to be able to use them.

I use an app called "getareallife". It switches off your phone and you talk to people.
