One Thing Well

Thanks to APNdroid for sponsoring this week on One Thing Well. I’m really pleased that the first site sponsor is such a simple, useful piece of software.

So, what does APNdroid do? It gives you fine-grained control over your Android ‘phone’s connection to the internet, letting you disable and enable 3G, EDGE and GPRS connections through a minimal but powerful interface. And once you’ve set which services you want to enable and disable, APNdroid becomes a simple toggle switch, so you can switch services on and off with a single press.

It’s the ideal tool to have on hand when travelling—with APNdroid disabling your internet connection, there’s no risk of accidentally racking up extortionate data charges—for users on limited data plans, and for anyone who wants to squeeze every last bit of juice from their Android device’s battery.

APNdroid is £0.99 or $1.60 on the Android Market.
