Those are the "functional categories" of the things everyone does on their
phone. People will name them different things, and people will split them
up differently, but that's the first question.

Q: What functional categories do you organize your phone by?
By way of example, here are mine: http://i.cubeupload.com/2FkLuw.png

For my list of best-of-the-best freeware apps for each of those functional
categories, what you need is the second level, which was in the OP, but
which I reproduce here.

a. *todo* http://i.cubeupload.com/5dayFF.png
b. *communicate* http://i.cubeupload.com/U1RwzI.png
c. *image* http://i.cubeupload.com/p1iDmw.png
d. *audio* http://i.cubeupload.com/JSsFcm.png
e. *video* http://i.cubeupload.com/y9Xhws.png
f. *browser* http://i.cubeupload.com/Y5FixO.png
g. *roadmap* http://i.cubeupload.com/rytr0A.png
h. *outdoor map* http://i.cubeupload.com/C5w9E5.png
i. *buy* http://i.cubeupload.com/r8Omha.png
j. *files* http://i.cubeupload.com/hsrbfN.png
k. *google* http://i.cubeupload.com/pxtfs9.png
l. *network* http://i.cubeupload.com/Zwpxlu.png
m. *system* http://i.cubeupload.com/zUOXcg.png

Q: What best-of-the-best free apps in those functional categories did I
miss?

For example, in the "todo" category, I haven't yet found a best-of-the-best
freeware app that did what I need, which is:
1. I start the todo app
2. I speak
3. It does what I need

What I need is usually one of three things at that moment:
A. I might want it to add a line to an existing file (e.g., a buy.txt file)
B. I might want to add an appointment to my calendar (e.g., call mom at 5)
C. I might want it to remind me to get milk only when I am near the store.

Do you know of a todo app that can do those three things well?
