Over the past couple of years I have tried so many apps, but the ones which have stuck are:

Nova - my favourite launcher on both my phone and my tablet.
Executive Assistant - allows me to see quickly my emails, texts, calendar, tasks and missed calls all from one screen on my phone.
Pocket Informant - the best looking calendar/tasks organiser I have tested on my tablet.
Tapatalk
Tunein pro
Dice - has coped with every video I have thrown at it.
Flixster - I travel a lot and this is just perfect for quickly letting me know what is on at the local cinema
BBC News - perfect on my phone for giving me a quick update on the news and sport
Yahoo cricket - very quick and reliable cricket updates
SwiftKey keyboard - I use this on both tablet and phone
Firefox beta - I have tried so many browsers and this one has caused me fewest issues. It has even caused me to return to Firefox on my Macbook so that I can make full use of the bookmark and password sync.
Kingsoft Office - pretty decent at handling my work documents
CloudPrint - does what it says
Train Tickets by Cross Country - never failed me yet on UK rail timetables and ticket purchase
Skyscanner
London Underground - has both a map and a route planner
Green Power battery saver - only used on my phone, but simple and reliable
exDialer - contacts and dialer in a nice simple interface on my phone
MoveApps2sd
Evernote
Dropbox

My top apps are, in no specific order:

Tasker (automate tasks on your phone)
NFC Launcher (automate tasks via NFC tags)
FlipBoard (news aggregator)
TouchDown email
Android notifier (receive desktop notifications for SMS, calls, battery alerts)
AirDroid (control your phone from your desktop)
SlideIt Keyboard
Remote Launcher (launch apps on your PC via your phone, or power down/reboot your PC)
XBMC remote
Google Maps
GTalk (IM and video conf)
Dropbox
HandyScanner (scan docs using the camera)

I'm probably missing a few, but these are most of them.

I have found that a good way to get books on to my Nexus 7 (in the absence of USB flash drive access until my adapter arrives from the US of A!) is to use Dropbox and Mantano Reader. (snip)
I can now add Nexus Photo Viewer and Nexus Media Importer to my list of favourite apps. My USB pen drive adapter has arrived, and both of these apps work with it, enabling me to view or import photos and video that are on a pen drive. You can use an OTG cable but they are very expensive in NZ compared with the price of an adapter.

This means that the absence of an SD card slot on the Nexus 7 no longer is an issue. The adapter cost $US2.00 for a pair (free postage to NZ by the way), and I already have a collection of USB drives. The apps are free from the PlayStore.

Please link to the USB pen drive adapter. Everything I've seen is an OTG cable, such as http://www.amazon.com/T-Flash-Adapte.../dp/B005FUNYSA
