So I got my new Samsung S5 the other week and after setting it up found that the Navigon Navigation that came with the Smasung for free for the last 2 phones is no longer supported.
Samsung (and Optus) haven't removed it, in fact it requires you update it after creating a Samsung Account before it tells you it won't work.
So I look in the Play Store and found I could get Navigon Australia for AUD$29.95. Better than that I find I have a prepaid credit card attached to my Google Account with money on it.
So I've installed Navigon and found Carmageddon (Full) for AUD$1.31.
So what else do I "need" to purchase next? I have a Nexus 7 (with SIM but not HD screen) as well as the S5.

I haven't had to purchase anything for my Samsung Note 4. I use Google maps for navigation. Don't know if that is available in your area.
|

|
|

For navigation, I use Google maps with traffic updates. Other than that, I have only purchased SwiftKey keyboard for all my android devices.
|

Swiftkey is definitely worth getting.
Keeper for passwords
WIFI channel analyzer for trouble shooting home wifi and ensuring I am on an unused channel.
X-plore for managing files on the device.
Teamviewer.
S Planner for calendar management.
Media Monkey for music.
Onavo Count for figuring out how much of my mobile data package I have used.
Avast for virus protection.

I use the free WiFi Analyser[^] for that, and jolly useful it is too!
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Thanks for the tip 
I will give that a try too.

I have installed those free applications:
1. Here maps (offline navigation).
2. Waze (online navigation, our government adds news there regarding the road status which is good).
3. Skype.
4. tapatalk (some forums use that).
5. FBReader (to read some ebooks).
6. VNCViewer.
7. TeamViewer.
8. ES File Explorer (when you have to change a file extension...)
9. VLC
10. FTP Server
11. SuperBeam
...

Ooh, I'd start with ES File Explorer[^] and/or Total Commander[^] and a bunch of its plug-ins.
Hacker's keyboard[^] is, IMO, the only one worth using.
GPad Remote[^] is something that I use a lot more than I thought I would.
NAP[^] is handy, if your copy of Tie a Yellow Ribbon is on your computer.
Draw![^] is cool for writing or drawing things to show to people without having to piddle about with editing tools (Handwriter[^] is similar, but I preferred the simpler app).

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

I'll bet that at least three-quarters of them don't meet the immigration requirements.

Three quarters? You're an optimist!

Just confirms my built-in aversion to any software/service that starts with 'Turbo'. I think it started some twenty years ago with TurboCAD, followed by some nasty run-ins with TurboCash.

Haha, yes. I do, however, have some good memories of Turbo Pascal, being the lingua franca for first and second years of my varsity diploma. I had hacked on C++ here and there, but jumped solidly into advanced data structures and such with Turbo Pascal.

Yeah. The word turbo is not even being used correctly.
Got this from the internet of stuff:
Turbo is short for turbocharger, which itself is short for turbosupercharger.
The etymology: A supercharger is any device that compresses the intake air - the intake "charge" - so that more air can be taken in by the engine and burned.
So, if your software is not taking in more air to be burned, then you should not be allowed to put "turbo" in your product name; false advertising.

Damn! I always thought it stood for the TurboBoost on Michael Knight's KITT.
I think the label "Turbo" comes from speed gained in two ways: 1) Making software simple enough for Dummies to learn in 24 hours, 2) Making software fast and simple by ignoring a whole boatload of quality.

Yup, and the word "metaphor" obviously isn't in the same dictionary that you got that from.
