In another thread, it was opined there was no such animal as a
"Typical" Smartphone/Mobile Device User
So, still trying to resolve how much "internal memory" is needed
for the purchase of Android/iOS mobile devices to be used as gifts,
if I try to answer the question of:
"What apps do YOU typically wish to add?"
I can then add up the sizes, to determine how much memory is needed
for a typical gift.
To start this off, I'll list below the apps I've added to "my"
mobile device, and I ask you to add whatever I've missed below:
A backup app (e.g., Helium)
A barcode scanner (e.g., Barcode Scanner)
A car finder (e.g., Find My Car)
A checking-account manager (e.g., Mint)
A dashcam recorder (e.g., DashCam)
A document markup app (e.g., Skitch)
A document scanner/pdf/ocr app (e.g., CamScanner)
A drawing app (e.g., Paper Artist)
A file navigator (e.g., ES File Explorer)
A fitness calorie counter (e.g., MyFitnessPal)
A flashlight app (e.g., TeslaLED)
A gas station price finder app (e.g., GasBuddy)
A grocery list app (e.g., Out of Milk)
A level app (e.g., Power Bubble Spirit Level)
A memo program (e.g., Inkpad)
A memory manager (e.g., 1TapBoost)
An alternative keyboard (e.g., Swype)
An anonymity browser (e.g., Orbot)
An anonymity search engine (e.g., DuckDuckGo)
An anti-virus scanner (e.g., Avast!)
An app killer/task manager (e.g., TasKiller Free)
An app manager (e.g., Clean Master)
An automatic call recorder (e.g., Automatic Call Recorder)
An Excel viewer (e.g., Excel)
An FM radio app (e.g., TuneIn Radio)
An history eraser (e.g., History Eraser)
An installer hierarchy (e.g., FDroid)
An Internet app to remotely control your PC (e.g., TeamViewer)
An offline backcountry mapping/tracking (e.g., My Tracks)
An offline document browser (e.g., Pocket)
An offline language translator (e.g., Google Translate)
An offline map when cell signal is dodgy (e.g., Navigator)
A PDF reader (e.g., Adobe Reader)
A photo editor (e.g., Pixir Express)
A power minder (e.g., Battery Doctor)
A PowerPoint viewer (e.g., PowerPoint)
A screen recorder (e.g., ScreeenREC)
A social-networking app (e.g., LinkedIn)
A speech-to text stenographer (e.g., Speech To Text)
A streaming music app (e.g., Songza)
A task manager app (e.g., "Tasks")
A terminal emulator (e.g., Terminal Emulator)
A VOIP app (e.g., Viber)
A weather app (e.g., The Weather Channel)
A WiFi discovery app (e.g., InSSIDer)
A Word viewer (e.g., Word)
A hands-free voice-controller app (e.g., Dragon Mobile Assistant)
A caller-id white-pages lookup app (e.g., Current Caller ID)
etc
But, the question is:
Q: What apps do you ADD to your mobile device?
