Though I only had this tablet for 3 days do to me really disliking it, here is the list of the apps that I use and like.
Lancher; Smart Launcher Pro
Browser; Maxthon, Google Chrome
FileManager; ES File Explorer (this is a must have program, you can access all of your cloud, network, local, FTP and SD Card storage in one place, just awesome)
CloudStorage; your tablet comes with 50GB of DropBox but I would defiantly also use the 15GB of free Google Drive and OneDrive from Microsoft. The latter is fantastic)
News; FlipBoard(a must have), Google Newsstand, Appy Geek, CNN Tablet, News 360 Tablet
Video; VLC and the built in video player is all you'll ever need
Music; I use Spotify, love it but others like Pandora are also good
Torrent; Vuze, Utorrent Pro
Shopping; Amazon, eBay, Best Buy(even if you don't buy from them it's still a good app to see what the prices for things are and if especially if a certain new product is even being offered yet)
Social Media; Pinterest(this is a fantastic app and like Flipboard is a must have) and of course the usual suspects like Facebook and Twitter if you use those services, I prefer Google+
Information; Google Search, Wikipedia Tablet, Wikitionary
EBook; Aldiko Premium, Google PlayBook (I use this app the most because I can store all of my eBook on Google Drive and this app can sync with them easily)
Torrents; Vuze (this is a very nice app), uTorrent Pro
Office; QuickOffice, Kingsoft Office (very nice interface but again I use QuickOffice for the same reason I use PlayBook, it's a Google Service and I can sync my docs with ease)
Music; I'm done buying music, I use Spotify and it fits my needs wonderfully
Notes; OneNote, EverNote and SpringPad all fantastic and worth an install, I use OneNote the most because I have a Nokia 1020 phone and a Nokia 2520 for work, I scan all of my documents using Office Lens then sync with OneNote.
Chat & Video Conferencing; Viber (use this the most), Skype, Facebook Messenger and of course Google Hangouts
Photo Editing; Pixlr Express, Photo Editor (this is a fantastic program but it ran like molasses on mm Tab 3, there has been update that supposedly fixes some performance issues with the Intel but don't hold your breath, Fotor (also a great program for your phone), anything by Aviary is also good.
Wallpapers; Premium Wallpapers HD (the best wallpaper program for tablets as every wallpaper scales to portrait and landscape perfectly though the quality of some of the Photos could be better, on the crappy 1280 x 800 rez all should be fine, I was commenting about when using an ultra high rez like with the Nexus 10
Miscellaneous; 500PX, IMDB, Flikr, Photobucket
Well that's it for me, it would be a good idea to search for Android Tablet Apps in Pinterest, that's where I find a lot of great stuff to install.

After using android phones and tablets for over 5 years starting from droid1 to one m8,
I actually wanted to know why people use iphone so I bought that about 5 months ago.
Couple days ago, Google released Android wear app for the ios devices.
I was able to get phone app, message app, gmail app, 3rd party messenger apps, and 3rd party music apps working.
Does anyone else use moto 360 with ios? If so, what other apps can be used?
Another nice question here, really i want to learn that too.I have just got a Moto 360 and i want to use it with full productivity.
Can you tell me how you got 3rd party music controls?
Hi! Just bought this phone because it's just too cheap and has decent specs. Actually, bought 2 of them, they were about 70$ each, with some 15$ extra headphones bonus
Phone came with Fire OS 4.6.3. Managed to install Google services and store, Google now launcher and make default with Home Switcher(listed as "incompatible" in Play store, had to sideload it...many other apps are "incompatible"). That was problem number one...
After that, installed Youtube app, which works, but 360p only and no cardboard option(360 vr videos). Installed iYTBP(modded youtube app) and videos work at higher resolution(720p default) but still no VR. Also default app player doesn't work well.
Installed Facebook and seemed ok, but videos open in browser and don't autoplay in app. I understand whatsupp has problems playing videos...
All these seem to happen because phone is not really known to the apps and they run in "simple" mode.
Is there any way to make apps think it is another phone that they "know" has enough hardware to run them fully? Because it really has...the soc is still strong enough and gyro is there. I will try my best to keep it as stock as possible for warranty reasons(2 years...)
Stumbled across some post where someone said you have to modify build.prop, I think, but can't find it anywhere. Of course, I would need to root it first...
Any more tips welcome, this is best buy for 70$ + bonus and it's really selling well around Romania right now, it seems.
As a side note, battery life seems ok, I got around 5h SOT without sim first day of use, gestures and sensors enabled and Google launcher.
For those other newbs, this site is useful to a point: http://spinyourfire.com/. Home switcher app is attached here, as it does not show up in Google play for this phone.
Google now works fine for me, including wallpapers and widgets and seems to have full functionality.
Thanks!
Hi guys
Any chance someone had similar issues, please assist.
This tv is really great and smart, screen is amazing, has guest/professional modes, loads of settings and cloning options, networking access and etc. But...
As a simple and single user now, I want to have play store, or any other way to install some certain apps. (I.e. Netflix, plex, IPTV)
This model has some preinstalled apps (i.e. YouTube news, weather, but no market/play store and settings letting to install from usb.
I can't even tell android version. Seems like GB?!
Where do I start?
Thx
Hi,
Was wondering if there is any help with the above question as I also have the same issue? Thank you for any help/assistance
UK poster here.
I'd be really interested to hear the experiences of those running the Matepad Pro out of the box without a 'hacked' version of the Google play store running.
Being Google free (ok, almost Google Free) isn't a bad idea in principle - as long as I'm not totally hamstringed by the alternative. Given I've other devices running the full compliment of Google services it may not be a deal breaker.
Plus I'm mainly interested in purchasing it for the M-Pen functionality - I can't afford the more expensive devices that come with a pen - I've had a Samsung S3 + S-Pen and it didn't particularly impress me anyway!
I do have a Huawei M5 and have installed the Huawei app store to get an idea of what to expect - plus I'll do my due diligence but it would still be really useful to hear from someone who uses it without any hacks to get Google working fully.
I have the Matepad Pro WiFi now from July and I think it is outstanding allowing the fact it does not have Google services. I tried all the hacks to date to install them with no success so settled for VMOS virtual machine and find it allows me to use the Google apps I need/use with no problems.
Other than Google I am running Amazon, Netflix, BBC iPlayer, Twitter, Disney and a lot of other apps natively.
