Music
Your Android phone is also a full-blown music player, so get to
grips with what it can do, and download the best apps to get
the right listening experience.
Last.fm
The original online
radio is a freely
available app with
more than 6.5 million
songs in its database.
Just fi re up the app
and stream dozens
of genre stations,
or create your own.
Be sure you’re in a
Wi-Fi zone, though –
streaming can really
rack up data charges
over 3G.
Spotify
Stream over six
million songs to
your phone with
this app, which is
available free to
Spotify Premium
subscribers. You’ll
be able to access
your playlists from
anywhere, as well as
download playlists
to your phone to
listen to when out
of Wi-Fi or 3G range.
Shazam
Heard a song you
love, but can’t identify
it? Let Shazam
record a few bars,
and it’ll comb its
database to give you
the title and artist. It
hasn’t failed us yet…
and yes, we’ve tried.
