You mean the ones the government seeds the App stores with so they can track you?

I downloaded a couple, like WikiHow and SAS Survival Guide Lite, but I never found much use for them. I've got all of the information in books.

My Droid Razr sends me emergency alerts by default.. even makes a cool test pattern sound...

I use an app called prep and pantry. it helps me keep track of all the items i have and their locations - food, equipment, etc. you can also enter the minimum you want on hand and as you use them (adjust inventory) it will create a grocery list. you can take pictures too (helps my husband if I ask him to pick something up) of your items. You can also share it with a group of people so you all have ability to update and use.

I believe its called "The weather channel".

The Weather Channel's android app works well.

I also like Backcountry Navigator for when wandering around in the woods. Its basically a GPS navigator (like the kind used for hiking) that'll also pull down satellite images and topo maps. Great for figuring out where you are, whether you're coming up on a road that should be bushwhacked over to or not, etc.

I know this is an old thread, but wondering if there any other such apps people might recommend?
Thanks

after using it for a while I ditched the prep and pantry app. I use a paper system now

Simple Weather Alert for severe weather app - free - one location only - here
Weather Alert Pro - $1.99 - unlimited locations and wherever your phone is - here.

Both versions can be put to sleep during quiet hours. I just bought the pro version and am monitoring the kids' locations and our worksite locations.

Ballistics calculators are fun.

Escape the wolf. You take a picture, of your safe, for example. When you return, you take a second picture. The app switches back and forth between them and highlights any changes. It lets you know if things have been messed with.
