Most of the entries were less than amazing. QR codes in particular still feel like a gimmick that's slower than a working system, or even Googling a few key terms. In a country with near-universal credit/debit card penetration, I don't actually want to pay with my phone most of the time - small merchants using Square totally solves the problem for me. But not switching apps would be freaking amazing. Anything resembling a decent inter-app API, or a scheduling process that doesn't suspend apps for small focus switches (which still regularly crashes even high-end apps like Amazon) would be magical. Many of my apps would be much more valuable with even minimal non-switching, and I'd write sync/communication software myself if the focus issues didn't make it so painful.
