Think most of us here already got hold of windows 8 phone d so what apps you recommend? My old lumia 610 i use to use instacam for instagram alternative. Metrotube for youtube. Just purchased my lumia 920 and was figuring which apps to download for the phone. As i never really explored the windows 7 market last time as my lumia 610 alot of apps could not download. In windows 8 I realized i could not download metrotube not in the windows 8 market place  So any apps you guys recommend for windows 8 to make my phone more interesting.

Metrotube was hidden for a bit because of Google is screwing with 3rd party youtube app recently... try download several lenses so that you can play when you're taking pics... probably you can try to play with photobeamer or creative studio

Other than updating the Nokia apps...
I would recommend the app Battery Status, which is FOC. The main app if you open the app has adverts but if you put it as a tile then u dont see it.
Makes life easier to see how much batt the phone has and also how long b4 it runs dry.
Cheers
