My android study machine...

[Pengyou]

I now have two cell phones.  I received one free when I signed up for my home internet access, so I am keeping the second one around as a backup, to use when I leave China ( the newer one is CDMA) and to use a tool to help me study Chinese.  I have googled with such phrases as "10 best android apps to use to study Chinese" but a typically result shows a couple of dictionaries, a couple of flash card programs and some mp3 programs.  It is a given (for me) that I will install Pleco and Ankidroid.  What I would like to know is what other programs are there that will work on my droid and help me study Chinese?  I am trying to learn about new KINDS of study tools for the droid, not different versions of the same that I already have.  Maybe put another way, what else can my droid do for me to help me be successful in my studies?  I am going to learn to read and write, as well as improve my listening and speaking.  I want to learn to sing Chinese songs.

 

What are your thoughts?
