I use Gas Buddy and Murphy often to find the lowest fuel prices.

What kind of app? Games? Battery Saver? Navigation?
I have a Droid Global 2 and have several apps. I have a couple free apps that I use many times. I have an app called "Bump App" which allows you to exchange information with someone else that has "Bump App". This is almost like handing someone a business card, except it is transfered to their phone and their information is transfered to your phone.

I have also have an app called "Kik Messages" which gives me free text messages to others with Kik Messages app.

Those are a few apps I have, so maybe if you let us know what type of app you are looking for, we might be able to help you better.

c:geo.

Geocaching is a super fun activity that involves hunting for hidden prizes, or special locations. The c:geo app makes it really easy to lookup caches, and then use the GPS to find them.

I guess I could have been more specific.

I've had Android for several years so I've got the standard navigation, Nook/Kindle apps, Gas Buddy, Places, games and such. Actually for reading I take my Nook Color.

I'm looking for more RV, camping, etc type apps.

There's a few by a company called AllStays. You could check them out here but I am pretty sure most cost a few $.
