Top 3 android apps you're crazy about

Hi everyone.
I was just curious as to what apps can be most likely found on your phone. I'm not too fond of installing a lot of apps on my ASUS phone but what I'm after is necessity. My top 3 apps are:

1. ASANA - allows management of complex workflows, multiple tasks, due dates, goals, etc.
2. Hootsuite - social media is important to marketing and it's one of the best apps I've encountered that provides user friendliness and allows me to save a lot of time when it comes to tasks.
3. Evernote - it works as my digital planner and I've been using it for 2 years. The best feature I love about it is I can take photos and save it as part of my journal.
 
My recommendations for all Android users.

1. Blue Mail. Best email client I've used that incorporates everything I need for multiple accounts. Wish it had a PC version!

2. Cymera - I started using it before it became an uploader/service, and keep it because it has some of the best auto editing filters (portrait/landscape/text), and also makes easy quick collages.

3. Tapatalk. I wish they'd stop changing the layout and UI every update, but it's a solid program that I use for multiple forums.
 
QuickPic was superb.
QuickPic was my gallery app of choice.
When it was purchased by Cheetah Software I gave it up and started using A+ Gallery.
A+ Gallery has some grouping options I have never seen in any other app.
Any app from Cheetah Software puts you at risk.

The approach is to add apps over time.

That list is the result of recommendations from a lot of other people. I learned about many of those apps at Android Forums. I use all of them.
