The updated news about mobile apps this week


Android app news: Google Docs gets native app
What a lovely addition to the Android Market Google has fashioned here. The native Google Docs app for Android allows you to create and have access to your cloud documents in a beautifully clean interface, but also has a special trick up its sleeve. There's an OCR reader on-board to enable you to take pictures of text and then transform them into editable documents.

iPhone app news: You made a wrong turn, Doh!
TomTom has added Homer Simpson
to its stable of turn-by-turn voice artists for its iPhone app. The £2.99 add-on to the app will feature some signature lines voiced by Simpsons' voice actor Dan Castallaneta. Homer joins the likes of Darth Vader and Yoda as TomTom celebrity voices.

Android news: Gtalk video chat incoming
Android is getting its very own FaceTime competitor in the shape of the trusty old Gtalk IM app. Android 2.3.4, which is coming to Gingerbread phones, will feature a new version of the client which will allow video calls over Wi-Fi and 3G to Android 2.3 phones and Google Mail users.

iPhone app news: If you're not yet completely bored of...
...Charlie Sheen, there's an app for that. The MaSheen app for iPhone features a host of the Mind Torpedoes and Fastballs of Truth from Hollywood's No.1 screw-up. The £1.79 app will give you your fill of Charlie on the go, but truth be told we had our fill of him the first time somebody quoted "Duh, winning."
