Android apps

In the past I've written about a lot of iOS apps. I did not write about Android apps simply because I didn't have an Android device. But I got a Motorola Moto G some time ago, so I might as well write about Android apps now.

I noticed that there seems to be more decimal time apps for Android than iOS. This may be because there is a lower barrier to entry. You do not have to pay anything to develop for Android, nor do you need a Macintosh computer, and it's easier to get apps published, so there is more freedom to play around without worrying about a return on investment. I thought about making one of my own, but haven't had the time. I've also noticed that the iOS apps are mostly very old, and have not been updated. This is indicative of issues with the Apple App Store generally.

These are just the free apps. There are enough that I don't feel it necessary to spend money on them. Later I'll post the stardate and Swatch .beat apps.
