Apps of the Day: PacDroid, Memonic and More
Hump Day is back! Another day, another bag of apps. Considering how effortless it is to search the Android market and download applications these days, we’ve been swimming in a sea of these apps and have no shortage of them to talk about. The ones we came across today are some of the most interesting and best that deserved a shout, though, so take my word when I say that you should at least check out the market listing for each one.
PacDroid Live Wallpaper – It’s PacMan, except with an Android robot. It’s a live wallpaper. And instead of pellets, it eats Apples. With a capital A. What more could you want? There isn’t much to it other than that, but you can change that Apple if your green friend is allergic to them. Go ahead and grab it for free. [Market]
Memonic – In a world filled with note-taking applications, it seems there can never be too many. Memonic has finally brought their wares to the Android platform. Like Evernote and many other competitors, you can organize notes with tags and notebooks, save a picture as a note, and sync all of that back to the cloud for use on the web or other platforms.

GO Launcher EX – We’re sure you folks have heard of this one before, but one of our favorite readers asked us to give it a shout. Go Launcher Ex is yet another home alternative, but is quickly up and coming as many’s favorite. All of the things you’d want are here, such as themes, scrollable widgets, fancy transition animations, a customizable dock and more. And the developer provides frequent updates that improve and add more things than they break. Go ahead and take the free download. [Market]
Paradise Island – It’s no Sim City contender, but being able to build your own island and civilization on Paradise Island is loads of fun. The city lives while you sleep, so you never know what you’re going to face when you start it back up in the morning. There are tons of buildings to be made, tons of people to make happy, and tons of experience points to earn. Best of all, it’s free with no ads. (But don’t be surprised to see micro-transactions pushed on you.) [Market]
