Best Bitcoin Android apps and widgets

[nahtnam]

ZeroBlock


the fact that you missed this is quite sad.

best app ever.

I think so, this is hands down the best app for iphone and soon to be the best for android (once some additional features are added). Time to update the list.

Does it hold the secret keys in the app or are they held by the ZeroBlock servers? Does any one know?

Its not a wallet. It grabs the btc price as well as block info.

Litecoin Widget has over 30000 installs. Don't let the name fool you, it supports over 100 different coins (including bitcoin, of course!) across 19 (and counting) exchanges.

My creation:
FluxBitcoin Widget features a Sony Smartwatch 2 extension and both in the widget and on the watch you get latest rates of 4 exchanges (currently Bitstamp, MtGox, Huobi and BTC-China)

Edit: … and it's open source of course. Talking of that: Please, if you go through this list and try out the widgets and stuff, don't just judge based on the developer claiming to have it open-sourced. "Nobody" uses the source version, so a trustworthy app is not an open source app but an app that you can punch the developer in the face if he robs you. Open source only helps people that actually can code.

Edit 2: Yeah, in theory open source helps the rest, too as a more trustworthy person could cheaply provide a more trusted binary and people in general might be able to monitor the binary but open source does not equal save to install from google play.

This is actually a pretty cool app! It would be great if you could get notifications ever x seconds with the price!

I recommend Bitcoin Checker (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobnetic.coinguardian).
It shows prices for all different coins from many different exchanges (Vircurex, Cryptsy, MtGox, BTC-e, Bitstamp, coinmarket.io and much more). It also has an alarm function (e.g. you can set it up to ring when the rate exceeds x $/BTC) and even a TTS (it automatically announces the course all X minutes per text-to-speech-engine. There's also a widget and best of it, you can put the rates you need most permanently in the notification bar.
I think it's a great app, fast, easy and feature-rich.

Im not sure what you mean by "sticky notification", but bitcoin paranoid sends out a notification every x seconds (the same type of notification you get when you receive an email). I really love that app, but if you could make it sexier I wouldnt mind switching over!

Will be supported in the next release which should be avaliable on Google Play Store in about an hour
The good thing about the BitMarkets app is that the notifications are live updated and do not require to update in specific time periods.

Ok, thanks for letting us know. It would be great to have either some way to let people know that this thread is not worth their time or to have transparent rules of what may be posted or what not.

Hi, I've just published a bitcoin widget, nothing fancy, the goal was to do something a little more good looking and less boring than the others. Plus you've got latest news by clicking on it.
