We can’t guarantee that every app featured below is a real winner, but each is worth at least a quick look. It’s all in an effort to help you, our faithful readers, get the most out of your Android handsets. Read on to see what we found today!

QR Pal – Looking for  new way to scan, save, and share QR codes? QR Pal could be your new best buddy. The app seeks to be the last resource you could need for scanning those oh so helpful tags that seem to be showing up in more places than ever. For added value, QR Pal lets you earn points with each scan and even create and use QR codes for PayPal transactions. At first glance it’s one of the most full-featured scanning apps we have seen to date. [Market]

UNO – UNO isn’t a newcomer to the Android market, but Gameloft has updated the classic card game of colors and shapes with enhanced HD graphics designed to look great on high-end devices and tablets. The game itself remains the same, save for some improved online multiplayer. For fans of the game, taking UNO with you anywhere you go couldn’t get much easier. [Market]

GetGlue – Another update app, GetGlue has updated their social media app for those that love taking in media (a social media media app?) with an overhauled interface and other improvements. A new Quick Rate button, universal search, and integration with Android’s menu buttons all enhance the experience of using GetGlue to “check in” to the movies, shows, and music you consume. New are sports check-ins. Fans of GetGlue won’t want to miss this update. [Market]
