New essential Android apps thread

+1 for Keep. The only thing I, and many others it seems, would love to see is the possibility to share notes. I use it a lot as a shopping list, sharing that with the wife would be most useful. We could just add to the list and whoever goes to the shop can tick items off as they buy them.

Are there actually any apps that do this? My missus has just moved in with me and sharing a shopping list would be very handy!

Out of Milk does this if you buy the unlocker

Works brilliantly for shopping/pantry/wine/todo etc. lists
Lets us use the tablet when at home, and a phone for getting the actual shopping in.

I've not had this since a random update on my Nexus 5, not sure what fixed it. I browse OcUK a lot on my phone and haven't had that annoying issue in any threads, even the random image and gif threads.

I still use keep for my shopping list. It's obviously not shared still though :/

Create a new google account that you both add to your phones and use keep on that. Works well!

Every version of the Chrome browser I have ever used across 3 different phones has had the font scaling issue. I really wish I knew how to fix it as clearly some people don't have it, and I've never had it on my N7.
 
Just treated myself to a nexus 7 2013 and being my first android purchase i am clueless to know what are the essentials to put on it.

Any advice guys? Slowly going through this thread but its going to take a while :p

Been having the same problem on Firefox. Just fixed it by setting the text size to Tiny; I'm not sure what the equivalent is in Chrome but I assume its essentially turning off the text scaling.

root it using wugfresh. Then use franco kernel and adaway and xposed framework - then gravity box which is an xposed module

Same here, I've set text size in Firefox to "Tiny" and it's pretty much gotten rid of the strange text resize. Tried it with Chrome's text scaling as well, it looked a bit off previously but a recent update seems to have fixed it:
