Hey guys. I've been using apple devices for over 5 years now and I've come to the note 3 through careful analysis. I love it. It's fast and got a beautiful screen. What apps a can I get to utilize the phone in the best way? I'd also like to get some themes. Any idea where I can get the best ones?

Dive into the play store, be sure to check out the ratings. Dual Boot makes great live wallpapers. There are numerous launchers that can be heavily customized, most are free. That's the best thing about Android! Have fun!

I love it. The note 3 is so good. Isn't it the best phone for the android platform ?
 
I'm also upgrading from a 4s and the Note 3 blows the 4s out of the water... I haven't been this impressed with a phone in a long time!! I saw the 5s in the store but it didn't impress me much at all!
 
Hi Jelepilly and welcome to Android Forums!

The apps I cannot live without:

Cerberus anti-theft
AVG anti-virus/malware
Camscanner scan/fax documents
Chrome Beta, my browser of choice
Robin a great assistant
Gas Buddy helps you find the cheapest gas around
Quickoffice is a Office editor for documents, spreadsheets and presentations
Google Keep an awesome to-do organizer
Chrome-to-Phone for sending stuff from your PC to the phone
CameraZoom FX and HDR+ are awesome camera apps
Soundhound for identifying songs: even produces lyrics!
SwiftKey Keyboard the best keyboard for Android
Tune-In Radio for great streaming FM radio stations all over the place
Thunderstorm Live Wallpaper - drop dead gorgeous on this screen!


Someone else will help you with Themes, as I prefer my phone pretty much stock Android. Hope this helps.

It's great to have you here and enjoy your Note 3!

You know what other phone it blows out of the water? Any other phone that's over 2 years old.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.
