How to Interpret our Rating System :

We rate the Windows Mobile on various factors like

• User Interface : is it finger friendly, does it look nice, etc
• Features : what does the app do, has it got any feature that makes it stand apart from other similar apps
• Ease of Use : is the app intuitive, has it got good documentation on how to use, etc
• Re-use Value : Once you install it will you go back to this app or just forget about it and why

For games we also consider

• Graphics : has the game for good graphics ?
• Sound : is the music and sound effect appealing or annoying ?

We rate all of the above mentioned criteria from 1-5 , one being the least appealing and five being the very best. Then we give the app an over all score.

Overall Score of 1 Star : Rating:
Sorry we had to waste your time with this boring app, we are sorry we had to do the review … Stay away from this app.

Overall Score of 2 Star : Rating:
The App might have some serious flaws and if its a Paid app we would recommend you to stay away from the app, may be future versions will have some hope.

The App does a fantastic job and we think you will be happy with what the app does. There are still some little things that are missing, but nothing to spoil the overall appeal of the app.

Saijo George

Graduated from La Trobe University, currently living in Melbourne. Initially a Symbian user who only came to a Windows Mobile with a Dopod 838Pro and WM5. Joined xda-developers soon after that and learned how useful and tweakable Windows Mobile was. To provide more exposure to the amount of Windows Mobile freeware apps released @ xda-developers , created 1800PocketPC.com in 2008 which as grown in to an excellent resource for Windows Mobile Freewares and News. Now with Windows Mobile Marketplace on the horizon, decided to start a new community to provide review of Windows Mobile apps an thus BestWindowsMobileApps.com was born.

Currently at York St John University (UK) studying Product design, I’m really interested in every aspect of design, especially furniture & user interfaces. I have a love for Windows Mobile &I do the odd bit of Visual Basic.net programming here & there between designing stuff or playing about with my Touch Pro 2. I’m a regular visitor to XDA-Developers & now enjoy making reviews for you folk to see on here, which gives me a chance to play with & show off some great apps.

Bishnoo
A management post grad from MICA, India who is currently working in a product development firm in Bangalore, India. Have been hooked onto WM since I brought my HTC TYTN couple of years back. Though I bought it primarily as a productivity enhancing tool, after discovering XDA developers, I have been addicted to the sheer customizability and range of apps in WM. Basically a ROM junkie and flash anything from 1 to 5 ROMs a week. Love trying out new applications and ROMs, be it of any nature – productivity, games or just plain cool!

A resident of Metro Detroit, Jon is a graduate of Western Michigan University and received his masters from Marygrove College in Detroit. Since ogling and finally receiving an HTC Touch Pro for Christmas ‘08 from his wife, Jon has been an advocate for Windows Mobile and the plethora of devices on which it resides. With all its quirks, the Touch Pro prevails as a his lovable buddy, with a monthly change from one UI to another, though an HD2 or Supersonic may be on the horizon. A bite from a radioactive praying mantis mysteriously gave Jon the special power of writing reviews for Best Windows Mobile Apps, and he now is pleased to share his interest for the myriad possibilities of WM applications.

Albert Becker
Currently living in Düsseldorf (GER) and studying Process Engineering at Hochschule Niederrhein (University of Applied Sciences). I am already for several years a fan and user of windows mobile phones. And every day I am still excited about the innumerable capabilities of my phone. I am a committed user at several windows mobile sites including the xda-developers. I would say it starts with heavy interest on playing with my mobile phone and now it is a advanced stage of addiction! Currently I am glad to be a user of the HTC HD2. I will try to give objective rating for each app which I am going to test on my phone. My life-motto is: “better have and not need than need and not have”

Currently a senior in high school living in rural northern Michigan, I have always been in love with highly functional mobile devices. I’ve been picking up old school palms and pocket pcs exploding the devices to my hearts content, but with the addition of a Windows Mobile phone my interests have flourished. New to reviewing, and questionably the English language, I hope to offer my opinion of the many applications currently available for this great platform. My interests extend into PC gaming, building, and modding and have lead me to try and attain a bachelors degree in Computer Engineering at Michigan Technological University.

An engineering in computing of Uruguay, that likes to try out new and amazing software’s and revolutionary UI. Had used and adjust a lot of mobile devices in order to get the most of them with out breaking them. I currently own a Samsung Omnia 2 (no ROM edition). Have added just a few things in order to have in the phone what is really need, the information that I use and nothing else.

Reviewers from the Past :

Kinnikun
College graduate with a strong interest for all things mobile. Have been a fan of Windows phones for the latter part of this decade and hope to stay that way for the next decade as well. Currently using a Touch Diamond, with hopes to upgrade to the Samsung Omnia II or another high end device in the future. Enjoys the good company found on XDA-developers and other sites where people come together to assist each other. Looking forward to informing others on the quality of intriguing new apps and games that hit the Windows Mobile platform.
