[NTLK] OT - Off Topic - Looking for people who can tell me what some Chinese Android Apps are for

[Forrest]

Frank:

Did you try cutting and pasting the apps' names (in Chinese) into a Google search?

In my Internet searches for stuff I often run into foreign language sites...Google's Chrome browser can automatically translate a language foreign to the user into whatever language you prefer. Whole blocks of text can be translated in this way.

HTH.
