Color Blindness Simulator
This one is an amazing app that lets you see from the perspective a color blind person. Using the camera the view is divided into two types of views, one is the normal view and the other is the color blind view. This will enable you to compare and see how color blindness affects people.

Another great feature of this app is the fact that it utilizes text-to-speak technology — which lets your friends avatar speak their newest Twitter or Facebook status update in front of you. It UI is not that great but still it works really nicely. Quite a fun app, I say.

It is a large MMORPG and you have the ability of building resources and then trading them with other players. You can create your own kingdom and flags, houses and hunt creatures. There is a huge online community associated with the game with players across the globe. Geeky, but still awesome.

Shake Fighter

Then get this sweet tiny app that identifies the shape of your hand in front of the camera and then you play against the game’s AI over a series of rounds. The camera obviously picks up your hand’s shape better in good light, still this app is really cool. The UI of this app is quite nice too.

wow !! now i am going to tease my brother. he is having iPhone 4S and i am having Samsung Note.. THANKS A LOT !!!!!
I’m the author of colorblindness simulator. Just wanted to point out that a few months ago I added a compensation function that allows colorblind people – like me – to map the color channel they cannot distinguish (e.g. red) to a one they can (e.g. blue or green). So now we can see those Isihara plates and also verify that some autumn leaves are, indeed, red.
I think the Color Blindness Simulator is an awesome app. Thanks for this list 😉
Looks like Android is getting cooler by the day dude.
