Destination Star Trek: Essential apps for the modern Trekkie

Trekkies are where it’s at! Germany saw a ginormous Star Trek convention take place this past weekend in Frankfurt where even Captain Kirk was present. Our troupes are at the Mobile World Congress this week, checking out the Galaxy S5 and other cool stuff, otherwise I’m sure some of our closet Trek-lovers would have surely gone to Frankfurt, or maybe not. Here are some apps that any Trekkie shouldn’t have to live without.

The whole comes with the designed that we’ve all loved since 1987.

LCARS Go Launcher Ex Theme

Let’s face it, we’ve all wanted to wear a Star Trek uniform or at least own some tablet à la Star Trek The Next Generation? Thanks to the extension to the popular GO Launcher EX, your smartphone can now becomes the TNG computer console. For just 1.70 USD, are you in?

How do you fill your Star Trek needs?
