1.Tap Path
TapPath is another one of those
wonderful apps from developer Chris
Lacy, if you’re familiar with his work
you might already use this app.
Essentially it lets set up tap actions for
clicking web links, so tapping once will
let you open up the link in your chosen
browser, but double or triple tapping the
link can complete some other sort of
action like opening up a completely
different app. Want to send that link to
pushbullet to share with friends or to
Pocket to save it and read it for later?
Simple, just set it up so that TapPath
allows a double tap or a triple tap for
either one of those actions. You can grab
TapPath from the Play Store for just
$0.99 if you find this to be as useful as
we did
2.Showear: Android Wear
Lock
This app just popped up today, but it is
immediately worthy of being on this list.
From personal experience with the Gear
Live for about a month, this is an app
that was sorely needed. Showear lets you
set up either pattern or swipe lock screen
sequences so you can only unlock your
Android Wear watchface after performing
the registered sequence. The initial idea
seemed to be to give users a way to wear
their watch while they take a shower but
without the hassle of the water messing
with your lock screen. It obviously
provides much more of a benefit than
that as it’ll be useful in many other
situations, but you get the idea. It has an
opaque or transparent lockscreen, and it
reduces the screen brightness to consume
lower amounts of battery. Showear is
free, so if you have an Android Wear
smartwatch and were looking for a
lockscreen app, check this one out by
hitting the Play Store link.
3.Afterlight
Afterlight is another photo editing
application and a popular one at that.
Having been ported over from iOS after
capturing the hearts of many users,
Afterlight made its way to the Play Store.
It boasts a simple design with “powerful
and snappy” tools to help you create some
really stunning pictures. It has 15
adjustment tools, 59 filters, 66 textures,
and you can add frames from a selection
of 77 different types and even crop and
transform the image. There are lots of
ways for you to make your image look
unique, and if you want to give Afterlight
a try you can grab it for $0.99 from the
Play Store.
4.Over
If you’re familiar with meme’s then you
you’re already familiar with the way
that Over works for Android. It isn’t
essentially an app to make meme’s but in
the same fashion that you can add text to
an image for an otherwise comedic
purpose,thus creating a meme, Over lets
you add text overlays on top of images to
create stylish and fun images with simple
quotes, inspiring mantras or anything
else your creative little mind can come
up with. The app provides you with tons
of preset text styles that you can choose
from, and you can add in quotes or other
bits of text that are already included, or
you can insert your own words and
overlay the text on top of your images.
Over doesn’t just let you add in text
though as it also lets you add in art
overlays if you wish. If you want to give
Over a try, you can grab it for $1.99 in
the Play Store.
5.Unclouded
Cloud storage has been one of the single
greatest things to come to computers and
mobile devices in the past decade, and
there are many great services out there to
help you manage all your files, send stuff
to friends and family and keep backups of
the stuff you find important. Sometimes
though, if you’re like a few of us at
Android Headlines you might find it a
little difficult to keep all those cloud
storage accounts organized, this usually
happens if you have more than one
service, like Dropbox, Drive, Box, and
maybe another. Unclouded helps you take
control of your cloud storage and keep on
top of your multiple cloud accounts with
ease. Right now it supports just Drive and
Dropbox, but Box and OneDrive accounts
support is coming soon. You can use
Unclouded to see which files and folders
are taking up the most space, which
categories you have the most of, know
what has been changed and when, and
search for things to make looking for
specific files or folders as easy as can be.
Unlcouded is free, and you can grab it
from the Play Store link.
