    The rte news now is a good app but it badly needs an update, especially on tablets!

    Agreed!

    Also the Facebook App is very poor on Android Tablets!

    Some apps don't work as well in Android as they do in IOS - in particular

    Munster Rugby
    Irish Rugby
    Heineken Cup
    Sky News

    On my phone the most used/favorite would be

    Beyond Pod/tunein
    Twitter
    Rte News Now

    My Tesco mobile would get a favourable mention due to being able to send webtexts.

    On my tablet the most used/favorite would be

    Twittercast
    Simpsons Tapped Out
    Netflix

    with skygo getting an honourable mention, been able to watch Ulster hold by their finger tips on my tablet was priceless. Should also mention FotMob which is used on both devices.

    P.S Fingal Libary now let you download audio books, has anyone got any recomendations for apps to be able to listen to one on your phone.
