if i had a magical android phone,

Google voice - so i could call for help through VoiP.. or after I use the other apps to make life comfortable, call to invite friends to party :)

Facebook - so i can annoy everyone with my cool photos of my island.. and remind them that i need rescuing or having a party

Google maps - so i could tell the rescuers where I am when i call them, as well as call for a pizza and beer with its built in business locations and delivery info.(its a magical island with internet, someone has to deliver darn it! lol)

Pulse - gotta have something to read.. nothing better than the whole net, organized :)

Amazon App store app - yo, now I get all sorts of apps.. lol :)

Amazon.com app - now i can buy everything I need to build a cool shelter, furnish it, get supplies, ect. What cant you find on amazon? lol

Google Music - gotta have my tunes

Netflix - what better time sink is there than 10k+ different series? lol

Instagram - to make my facebook photos even more annoying.

Pandora - for when i want to stream stuff I dont have.

Yup, I'm good. :)

Android has a solar charger. This is most critical in a deserted island. Android FTW!

My top app would be one that can book me a boat/plane ride back home.

*warning, this is a troll... if you don't like it, you're welcome to piss off*

I think you've forgotten the most important app in these situations, the phone app... and face it, it's an iPhone...
It doesn't even get reception in normal situations, and i doubt it'll get reception there...

*end of troll*

Is there a suicide app? Because if i was stuck on an island with an iPhone I would want to kill myself.

this is what annoys me, im sure tons of people who visit this site are looking for the biggest and most important Cell Phone news around, and then theres some journalist at the PhoneArena offices who decides hes so bored writing about important news, that he should take the time to bring out a pointless article like this... there are sooo many more important articles and interesting news he could be bringing up, but being an Apple fan boy like im sure he is, he needed to make this article... im not against having apple news on this site (even though its been very clear the user ratio on this site is about 4 Android users for every iPhone user) but put up important things, not a fun little hypothetical. Im sure the apple users want real news... not just a poorly thought up article on what he thinks the top 10 apps would be on an iPhone when stuck on an island.

this is the stupidest article i have ever read. if i'm deserted on an island and have great service, perhaps i would, i dunno, CALL FOR HELP instead of reading a book.

if there is no service whatsoever, most likely, my phone would die eventually. then what? what's gonna entertain you now? huh? beat that!
