This might be the best month ever for Android. We've seen Android 2.2, the future of Android and even Google gleefully mocking Apple. Oh yes, and there were a ton of awesome apps. If you'd like to view the following gallery as a single page, click here. Mint: You know Mint, right? Pretty much the best online personal finance manager around (so good, the company behind Quicken bought it).

One of the latest apps to make the migration over to the Android Market from the land of iPhone exclusive apps is RunKeeper, an exercise tracking application that has been well-received on the iPhone platform. Android already has a decent selection of these apps — my up-to-now personal favorite being CardioTrainer — but RunKeeper is a welcome addition. The free version currently available in the market only runs on Android 2.x devices, and will track all the basics such as pace, distance, and time, and provide GPS map tracking. Signing up for a RunKeeper account provides the added functionality of online synchronization of your daily exercise for long-term tracking of progress and goals. If you are coming from an iPhone to Android, this means you can pick up right where you left off in your training by entering your account credentials into the Android app. A “Pro” paid version is expected Read More

Once upon a time I was a dedicated iPhone user, and during that time I used a wonderful app called RunKeeper to track my bike and run workouts. I then started using an Android phone on a regular basis and was (in an effort to have a cross platform app) forced to ditch RunKeeper. Well, in a little bit of happy Monday news, the RunKeeper app is now available for Android and can be found in the Android Market. For those unfamiliar, RunKeeper is an app that tracks the progress of your outdoor workouts by taking advantage of the GPS in your phone. It offers data including total workout time, distance traveled, average speed, average pace and calories burned. It also offers a map of your workout route which can be viewed both on your phone and on the web. In terms of the newly released RunKeeper app for Android, it Read More

RunKeeper, coordinated nicely with the Boston Marathon, takes the starting line on Android 2.x devices today. This software is among my personal favorites as it uses a phone’s GPS to track and report on any type of mobile exercise: running, cross-country skiing and hiking, to name a few. Up to now, however, I was missing RunKeeper because it was iPhone-only and I adopted a Google Nexus One over three months ago. RunKeeper, it’s good to see you again. This first version, free in the Android Market, offers just the basics but I’d expect to see an offering comparable to the RunKeeper Pro app in the near future. For now, expect time, distance, speed, pace, calories and map tracking with RunKeeper for Android. Of course, you can listen to music while using the app, and there are configurable voice cues for pace on the iPhone version which I hope to see added Read More
