Hailo - lets you catch a proper black cab with a meter from anywhere in London, tells you how far away it is, drivers name and phone number etc, pay automatically by credit/debit card and only pay the meter price.
Having been fleeced by minicabs before when a black cab was quicker, more convenient and knew the roads, I never use anything but Hailo now when I'm in London. They even email you a receipt for if you are expensing back. Love it. Saves me time and stress, which is money in my book ;o)0 -

Free Apps:
iPlayer
"Google Now" cards
It's not a separate app but part of Android on 2.2 and above, basically it gives you usefull things based on your searches and emails, like if you schedule a meeting in google calander with a location address Google Now will pop up a "card" with map information and travel times. Also if you use public transport a lot it will tell you the nearest bus stop train station and times.

It's got to be 'filmon'. I am living in Cyprus & expats here are losing channels from their satellite dishes.
Last week I got the local telecoms company to put in an adsl line. The result is fantastic - UK tv (min 4mb broadband).
Admittedly thats using an ipad but the app is available for android too.:j0 -
More for phones than tablets, but Amazon and EBay apps.. If I'm out shopping (especially Christmas shopping!) and see something I like, I can compare prices online and see if it's a good deal or not0
