What are the 4-5 top apps that you use on your smartphone and what % of time usage does that make?

Currently the only apps I use (99% of the time) on my smartphone are - * Contacts, * Camera, * Email, * Maps. In that order.

Confession:

When smartphones had just hit the scene, I would stuff mine with new and shiny apps all night long, but in the long run, none of them stuck around.

I think a big win from apps is that the system default software has to compete with something (and I guess it lowers the bar for trying new ideas).

Cheap time waster games are also nice, and there seem to be niche apps where people that need them really benefit.
