There's no legal ones and we can't mention the others. Google is your friend.

There is also and Easy Mode on that phone.
It simplifies the home screen into 6 sections instead of mutliple apps.

I think you can choose the 6 sections, so for example instead of 'music' you could have 'Apps'.
It's also very handy on stubborn or broken/damaged screens.

Has anyone used NRG player? Is it any good/worth paying for?

Tried it but didn't like I use power amp

Thanks.
Yeah I have poweramp, but a few issues with it led me to look elsewhere. It seems okay now (poweramp).

Fantastic Humble Bundle for Android.
https://www.humblebundle.com/mobile

Pay $1 or more for Prune, Framed, and Battlestation: Harbinger.

Pay more than the average price to also receive Frozen Synapse Prime, Lara Croft Go, and Sorcery! 3.

Pay $6 or more to get all of that plus Grim Fandango Remastered and Desktop Dungeons.

Plus one for Trello, it sounds like a checklist on a single card will have you sorted.

Weather underground, the community provide local information with weather stations on their roof providing sensor info. There's plenty if them to get detailed info. There was a bargain alert some time ago that gave the premium for free but it just removed the adverts, no extra features. It's a very accurate nice clean app

Have to disagree about Weather Underground. I work outdoors & accurate forecasts are essential.

For short term forecasts, like a few hours, Arcus is very good for rain. It monitors the rain radar & will give very accurate notifications. The ME app is ok but the rada map is tiny. You are better just bookmarking the rain radar page from the main ME site.

For longer forecasts I use yr.no, their new app is very good & I also use XC weather. The reason for the two is they both use a different computer model.

Edit: Weather Underground is showing no rain for Galway - it's actually raining.

Galway city has only a few weather stations reporting at present none are currently reporting any precipitation.

Late to the party, but Trello is excellent.

Pretty decent Humble Mobile Bundle on at the moment, with Grim Fandango, Lara Croft Go, and more.

In terms of weather apps I use AccuWeather, it's free with ads and the paid version being around €3 I think.

Has a good design and allows multiple locations.

The only thing I'm not too keen on is the "RealFeel" aspect of it, it could be 9°C outside and AccuWeather says it feels like -4°C!

I use Google Now for weather too which allows me to access forecasts as Gaeilge.

As someone who relies on weather forecasts I find Accu weather the worst

Haha! Well I also dislike their feature of saying "it will rain in X minutes" as I've found it to almost never be accurate.

Try Arcus. When it says rain in 10 minutes lasting 20 minutes it's often surprisingly accurate. It actually reads the ME rain radar.

Cheers for the recommendation I'll give it a go.

Niemoj I use this one and I've had no problems with it and find it accurate.

If your preferred weather app gives you a choice then I've found weather underground to be an excellent data source for weather around the Munster region.

Otherwise I really like weather timeline as an app. Clear, quick and easy to read.

Second that weather timeline and I'll add in Simple Weather....really accurate rainfall radar alerts.

I think most agree Accuweather isn't great. From the thread so far:

Arcus
Transparent clock & weather
Weather Underground
Weather Timeline
Simple Weather
AIX
YR

I'm going to test them all out on Irish Spring Weather over the next couple of days.. The toughest challenge for any weather app .
