Recommend a Good Android App for Practice

What Android App do you use for practice?
Lots of options, no obvious concensus among APs.

TIA

Advantage Blackjack by Darkwoods Labs is a pretty good free app.

Any good PAID apps for AP practicefor Android? I've been hoping Norm would come up with something based on CVBJ, as I am a big fan of that software and also own an Android phone. Norm - I would pay quite a bit for such an app. Something to ponder...

I would pay for Norm's Android APP to practice FELT or REKO. CVBJ is the greatest on this planet.

Ditto, but would like to see it on iOS as well as Android, and with a broader range of systems that just REKO and FELT.

Perhaps a free/demo version with REKO/FELT/Basic Strategy practicing software; and a paid/full version with CVCX or CVDATA capabilities and more counting systems.

Realize that these devices are still a tiny fraction of the speed of PCs. I wouldn't try to run a simulation.

I just got my first cell phone(smartphone) and am less than
impressed with their computing power, despite the GBs of
storage and MBs of main memory. OS = Android Gingerbread,
2.3.3, iirc.

I'll settle for a nice practice app.

Awe c'mon; you never get the urge to compare games AFTER you get to a casino?

Off subject a little, I have a question I have been meaning to ask you, Norm: I downloaded the demo versions of CVBJ, CVCX and CVData. I then purchased all three and used the license numbers to unlock the demos. Would doing a complete re-install be advised, advantageous, or even make ANY difference? I fear this might be a dumb question, but curiousity has eaten at me enough to 'go for it' regardless. Also, owning license numbers for both CVCX and CVData is supposed to allow me to use an alternate version of CVCX with additional CVData options - is this simply the CVCX simulator that is selectable from CVData? or am I missing something? Thank you for your time

Sorry, I hadn't thought of that. A good practice app would still be awesome

Using Advantage Blackjack now. I guess w/ a smartphone you could still access CVCX Online through the Qfit website

There is no need to reinstall CVBJ or CVData. CVCX should bereinstalled to load the canned sims. They are too big to download.

Yes, select CVCX from CVData. It adds many CVData features.

Thanks, Norm. I appreciate the expediate and helpful response. I assumed as much, but to get the final word from the man himself is reassuring. Also, if I may, I'd like to say thank you for designing software that is both elegant as well as comprehensive - truly "the gold standard", and keep up the good work!
