Android Apps of the Week! – February 12, 2012
Welcome to another edition of DroidLessons.com’s “Android Apps of the Week!”. The plan is to compile a list of my favorite apps and share them with you on the Sunday of every week. It will give you plenty of time to try out the apps and then also something to look forward to on a weekly basis. It’s always fun to learn about the latest and greatest apps out there. The Android market has over 300,000 apps and therefore it’s not always easy finding quality apps via the Android Market. My hope is to save you some time by sharing and informing you of the quality apps that I have found over the many months of using and teaching on the Android platform.
So, without further ado, I present to you this week’s edition of “Android Apps of the Week!”.

Wallbase HD Wallpapers
By: Tim Clark
Cost: FREE
Wallbase makes finding new Wallpapers for your phone both fun & easy. Wallbase started off as a website which scrapes wallpapers from 4chan and then allows users to tag/moderate the wallpapers. This is an Android client for that website and it is a great way to find new wallpapers for your device. But be warned, some images on the site may be inappropriate for children. So this app is listed as “High Maturity”. Don’t let the kids play around with this one.
Features include:
✓ Browse, set and save over 1 million HD wallpapers
✓ Browse popular wallpapers
✓ Browse random wallpapers
✓ Browse popular tags
✓ Search by keyword/tags/color
