Top 5 best Android Apps

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.
