whats best app you have on - Samsung Galaxy Gear

since now we can side load our apps through wondershare mobile go which is the best app, most usefull or most fun for the gear , fruit ninja is pretty good
galaxy note 3 now Free

I'm interested to know what is working well for people as well. I'm trying to decide what I'd want on my watch. I know of a few things, but I don't know if there is an app for it yet.
1. Weather info from weather.com instead of the default accuweather.
2. Gmail notifications with at least the sender and subject line avail.
3. Ability to send pre-defined text messages as a response. The S voice is pretty good but there are a lot of times where speaking into your watch is just not appropriate.
I'll try the weather.com app now and report back how it goes. I have a feeling that it's gonna suck on the watch in its current form.

Subway Surfer and Temple Run Oz work flawlessly!

I just downloaded some games. I'll try to sideload them tonight or in the morning. I'll let y'all know.

My #1 Android SMS Alternative - GoSMS

Thanks to Product F(RED), I have found my favorite texting app. GoSMS! You might have heard of it, you might have not, but so far it is 5x better than Handcent and 100x better than the Android SMS Default. Let us know if you use this app, and what you think of it here! Have a great weekend!
I love gosms. I've tried to settle for others and even for the stock messaging app but the themes are awesome. And the widget is cute also.

Very! Its alot more clean and "put-together" than handcent and many others. Have you used any other sms apps before?
I'm using it too as my sms app.
It's great and it has a lot of customization options!

I love the different themes that are available!
I liked it, but saw no reason for me to switch from my default which is smooth, clean, good-looking and straight-forward. But, yeah definitely a lot better than the alternative ones (handcent etc...).
Yep! For the Android Texting app, its a great example of "Too Simple." We love flexibility nowadays

Hopefully we get Emjoi sometime soon! Keep us in the loop.
sounds like this app is just what i've been looking for
does it have any ads?
Could you tell us Handcent-users what Go-SMS actually does better than Handcent? I don't see a big difference.
I use GoSMS to and i like the app.
I tried some other before like handcent sms but GoSMS is my favorite.
Handcent SMS causes some big lags for me. Furthermore there were some errors in displaying some MMS. When i tried GoSMS this bugs did not appear.
Great APP but there is a problem with it. if an SMS comes in and the popup windows comes on and you are not near the phone and the screen turns off, the popup goes away (as it should) BUT so does the SMS notification and the SMS is marked as READ. this means the reminder function of the program does not work.
How do I resolve this? Im on the EVO4G

For starters; GO SMS, unlike Handcent, doesn't look like a giant pile of sh*t being rendered onto your Android screen.

MightyText - kinds of a substitute for MyMobiler?

Anyone see this on Engadget today?
http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/22/mightytext-pushes-messages-and-incoming-call-alerts-to-your-comp/
I know I was looking for something similar to MyMobiler for Android ... with no luck, and I'm sure some of you have been too.
This is still in beta but the idea seems cool .. at least you can txt from your PC.
I've tried to sign up but I believe they are very busy right now. Looks very cool though. Hope they do a FireFox plugin eventually.
mightytext
i got accepted into beta, love it.
Just got in too - working brilliantly!
Been using this since it was Texty. Very cool. Not without its quirks, but definitely worth having if you use chrome.

I've been using it for a while, so far I like it but one day I was unable to receive and texts until I uninstalled the app.
After the app change names to mighty text I have not had that issue recur.

Read Out of Text Messages

So I had my bionic in my car mount and received a text message. The phone then preceded to read it to me.
I haven't seen this anywhere but is there a way to gain this functionality when walking around?

Settings text to speech and accessibility should help and handcent sms allows only text message readout on the press of a button if memory serves
I kind of wish I could disable this feature.
It kind of got me in trouble one day

I can imagine....
I went through the settings and there isn't anything there to configure when its available.
The Casio G-Zone Commando has a "read out" app that will read any unread messages when you press the app icon. I have looked for the app but can't find it. If I'm able to find a Commando ROM ans extract the apk, do you thing it would work? Hmm, I guess I know my evening.
I have never liked things like handsent or third party apps that do what I already have a core app to do. It just seems like bloat

I agree but they work well as a temp fix until you find the solution
I think this would be a pretty cool thing if I could get it to work.
It didn't take me long to find a commando system dump, but a couple of hours later I am no closer to finding the apk.
I would GREATLY appreciate any help. On the commando there is an app called "read out" and it has the same icon as the text messaging app. If you touch the icon it will read your unread messages to you.
I figure (total guess) that it is interfacing with the picotts.apk like the bionic does in car mode. The bionic has the picotts.apk already, so I want to try installing the read out thing to see of it works.
Does anyone know what the read out apk is named? Or if this would work?

Give me a link to what you are working with and I will take a look, but I am no dev so no promises
Also this seems to work well https://market.android.com/details?id=de.exesmobile.messagereader

I saw there were a couple of apps, what I liked about this was it's almost more of a widget. Nothing opens you touch it and it reads. The down side to an app is if I have to open an app to use it I might at well read the message myself.
I appreciate the help. I know I probably sound like an idiot

So I was able to check out a Commando and the "read out" is a 1x1 widget, not an app. The commando is the only phone I have seen this on.
Is there a chance that the pico apk is different on the commando and has that widget? If so can I install that version and have it work?
I like the widget because I don't want every message read out. I don't see the point in a seperate messaging app, because I could just open and read the message. But the widget I could find useful if I'm on Bluetooth or busy with something and don't want to stop and read. Just tap the screen and continue doing what I'm doing!

Unfortunetely commando forums are few are far between and not a lot of help.

Looks like that ROM is froyo based so I'm going to say probably not

Sucks. Any devs got some free time, and want to work on something a little unique?
So you think that's it, its a different Pico apk?

Check out VLingo in the Market. It has a setting that will read your SMS messages for you. There is even a handy widget to turn it on and off.
I like Car Dock Home v3 for full customizing and use Tasker for everything. It would be trivial to create a task that says to read an incoming text out loud based on docking status or location or time or whatever, and even automatically respond.

I got a game that there is not a single clone of it on the market.
Quoridor but with online play like words with friends or wordfeud, where opponents have unlimited time to play a move or a certain daily limit. Also would have chat and multiple games at one at least 2 players but 4 players would be awesome.
Let me know if your interested.
Thanks

Hope Google steps up to the plate

Im really hoping google steps up to the plate and works with alot of their apps to make them work with the gear. So many possibilities with keep, music, drive, gmail, hangouts, everything.
Im not holding my breath, but it would be great to see them jump in the wagon.
I hope so too, but part of me thinks that Google won't be in a hurry to go out of their way to make the Gear experience too good when they are releasing their own watch soon.

I would agree but you have to think about the Nexus line vs the rest of Android. Google first and foremost wants their apps in your face no matter which device it is. This is more in Samsung's court than anybody else. They want control of the GG and to promote their crappy app store.
