The Google Play App Store has exploded in recent years, with a proliferation of Apps that can cater to your every need. The problem is that it's a rather difficult track to keep track of them, including overall trends and which ones would be perfect for your needs, or your company's.

That is why we have made this list, rounding up on the best cellphone Apps for the Android platform come every quarter, so you can read about the cream of the pie. So here we are, for the top ranked Apps of Q1, 2014 then:

1. Dropbox

Pretty much essential for anyone juggling a work and home PC, laptop, tablet or phone, Dropbox's key functionality lies in letting you access any files anywhere. It can also automatically upload photos taken on your phone to your account, meaning that after a bit of uploading and downloading, all your snaps are available on any of your devices anytime, anywhere.

2. eBay

A long time coming, eBay's cellphone portal lets your browse, watch items and buy stuff, as well as integrating a Paypal sign-in for quick purchases. Better still, Android phones increasingly have immense cameras on them, making it easier to sell items straight through the app - take a photo, upload it, whilst having most of the listing data pre-filled for you.

3. BBC Weather

Free from the BBC, this weather App arrived late to the weather party in the first month of the year, and delivered a completely stonking, triple-A meteorological experience. A variety of stylish widgets, long-range forecasts, location-aware settings and support for multiple locations make finding out how much it is raining everywhere a joy!

4. Google Keep

Google has a new cross-platform note-taking tool. Called the Keep, the major has recently also started pre-loading it as part of the core Android feature set. It comes with a stylish widget, integrates Voice Dictation, and also syncs with the Chromebook - should you own one. A reat way of coordinating mobile and laptop lives, overall.

5. FlightRadar24

One for the flight nerds, FlightRadar 24 pulls open data from air traffic control departments worldwide, letting you see exactly which flights are up there generating that attractive vapour trail. As well as listing all local flights, the app can also use Android's positioning tools to work out what you're looking at, making it dead simple to point your phone at the sky and get flight details pinged straight back.
