Android Apps for Hackers

Include links to a webpage or even a barcode to the market url or .apk file if possible. Also, feel free to use a better layout for this page if you can.

List of Android Apps suitable for the typical Hacker

Scripting

• Android Scripting - edit and execute scripts and interactive interpreters directly on your device.

• Tasker (payware) - similar to Android Scripting, but instead of a language it's more oriented as configuration templates.

Task management

• Advanced Task Killer - can automatically rid your device of battery eating apps still running.

syn₂cat

• syn₂cat - the app to open/close the syn₂cat hackerspace

References

• ElectroDroid - contains various reference tables and tools for the common electronics guy

Analyzers

• Wifi Analyzer - is a nice visual tool to see what hot spots are in the area and on which channels they operate.
• War driving? Gunstick checked out several ones, but none really pleased: WiFiFoFum, WiFinder, WiGLE WiFi, Wardrive. So no advice given here.

Geocaching

As hackers love geocaching, here is what's useful to have

• c:geo full featured app which can log online and store caches for offline use
• GPS averager is useful when you hide a cache
• MapDroyd is locating yourself on offline openstreetmaps downloaded to your device.

Astronomy

Geeks probably also have some interests in stars, ISS and other satellites

• Predisat telly you when there will be satellite overpasses and which brightness they will have
• Sattelite AR is a sky overlay showing you current satellites
• Google Sky Map ... of course

Fun

• DroidSound - plays all types of 8 bit tunes, mostly by emulating the original hardware. Get the beta from the linked site for the most recent version.
