The 100 Best Android Apps of 2014

Productivity and Finance
Keeping track of your information and your money has never been easier.


Mint 

 

Free 
Mint is a fantastic online service to keep track of all your finances, and it really shines on Android. Once you've entered all your information, you can easily see where your money is going. I really like Mint's budgets, which help me make spending decisions on the fly. Mint can be a bit overwhelming at first, but well worth the effort to learn.


Check

 

Free 
Check (formally Pageonce) is focused on one thing: paying your bills. Enter your bills into the app, along with your payment options, and Check does the rest. You can also use Check to send money to anyone with an email address or a mobile number—like your landlord or that guy you owe money too. It's not a broad financial tool like Mint, but it will help you stay on top of your bills.


RescueTime—Work Smart

Free 
It can be hard to buckle down and get work done on your Android, especially when there are so many great games just begging for your attention. Enter RescueTime, which tracks everything you do on your Android and delivers reports about how much time you spent productively and how much time you spent on Candy Crush. The design is a bit wonky, but it's a powerful tool.


OfficeSuite Pro

 

$9.99 
Creating and editing documents on your mobile device still isn't as easy as on your desktop or laptop, but OfficeSuite Pro comes close. It supports most Microsoft Office files and PDFs, so you can quickly create and edit PowerPoint, Excel, and Word documents wherever you are. It also integrates with cloud services, putting all your documents at your fingertips.


quickoffice
Quickoffice 

 

Free 
Creating and editing documents in Google Drive is easy, unless they happen to be Microsoft Office documents. Enter QuickOffice, which serves as a highly capable bridge between Office and Google Drive. It supports Word and Excel and is perhaps the best mobile editor for PowerPoint I've yet seen. It's got a limited scope, but it's great at what it does.


SugarSync

Free 
Not just another cloud service, SugarSynccan automatically backup all your photos and videos from your Android to a free 5GB online account. In addition to the standard sharing, syncing between devices, and very nice interface it's one of the best cloud storage services out there. You need to try this one.


eFax

 

$16.95 
While the rest of the world may have moved on from fax machines long ago, the business sector still stubbornly clings to this tool. Enter eFax, the service that lets you send and receive faxes without the hassle of a fax machine or a dedicated phone line. All from your Android. Slip on your Members Only jacket and send faxes just like in the good old days.


Adobe Reader

 

Free, $9.99 per month upgrade 
Many apps will open PDFs, but Adobe Reader lets you markup documents and even make changes. If you find yourself having to fill out a lot of electronic forms, or reading long academic texts, this app is for you. With a $9.99 per month subscription, you can convert any file to a PDF through the app.—Next: Organization »
