I'm sure everyone's got their favourite mobile apps and computer programs etc. Thought I'd start a thread for suggestions to share with other TWFers.
Start the ball rolling. Ever had the message "This content is not available in your country/geographic location"
I used to get it when wanting to watch F1 news clips in the UK. Maybe you want to watch catch up TV in the US, UK etc and get that message also.
There's a very cool extension to your web browser that lets you watch programs in another country. It's multi browser/operating system. It's called Hola, is free and simple to use and can be found here

Ever looked up at the night sky and wondered what star/planet that was?
App 'The Night Sky' uses the GPS in your phone to name the different things in the sky (that's as technical as I can get)
Night Sky Lite is free,
IIRC the full bottle version is $1.99
If you are a Sky watcher...Iridium Flares is a cool app.
on my phone, "tiny troopers" have saved my mental state during various boring times, cant remember if I paid for it or not, but its possibly the best app/game Ive ever downloaded

Listen to Tunein Radio every day - awesome app - need good net connection though
LogosQuiz is great - also 4 Pics 1 Word is extremely addictive - on Android and Apple via App Store
I got an update and he disappeared. Which is good because on Sunday morning when I opened it up I probably would have thrown my phone

Pandora is a good music app. You start off with a genre or pick some music and then it plays similar random music which you can like or dislike and then it works out what you like and only plays that with an occasional red herring dropped in.
Tank Hero is a good game
coz Stone Cold says so
