Best Android Apps on Play Store
Apps are an essential part of everyday life
Apps are an essential part of everyday life. From online shopping to paying bills, apps have made our lives simpler and more productive.
But, in a world of zillions of apps, with editor’s choice, top free, and top charts, some apps you haven’t heard of are super awesome, helpful, and productive.
So, here we are, presenting the best of the best Android apps that deserve to be on your phone. These apps are popular and widespread; of course, you might already have some of them installed on your phone.
Without any further, let’s get right into the best android apps.
1. CamScanner
If you are tired of xeroxing and scanning your important documents like ID cards and photos, CamScanner is here to your rescue. Capture the image using your smartphone camera or import it from your gallery, and CamScanner will convert it into a scanned document. CamScanner is the world’s no. 1 mobile document scanning app with over 100 million installs. You can Scan your ID cards, invoices, notes, certificates, results, and more. You can convert your scanned docs to PDF, JPEG, or docs files. It uses OCR (optical character recognition) technology which means you can extract text from images and even edit it to share in .txt format. The smart cropping and auto-enhance feature helps text and graphics to look sharp and clear. You can also save and sync all your docs on various devices.
2. ES File Explorer
ES File Explore might be the most popular file manager made for Android. It is a top-rated file manager app with over 500 million installs worldwide. It is free, simple, fast, well-organized, and equipped with intelligent features. One of the best things about ES File Explorer is that it is brilliant; it helps you manage your phone space creatively by getting rid of redundant files and analyzing and suggesting space reports from time to time. It enables you to free up your Space by effectively offering useless files hogging your Space and which files you should consider removing. The other features include file receiving and sending via wifi, Zip/RAR support, root explorer, Bluetooth file browser, remote file access, and functions such as FTP and FTPS. It supports cloud storage such as Dropbox, Box.net, SugarSync, OneDrive, Google Drive, Yandex, Amazon S3, etc. App Manager helps categorize, uninstall, backup, or delete your apps; a note editor can edit almost any type of note or script.
3. Google Duo
Google Duo is Google’s video calling app in classic Google style. It is fast, simple, and free to use. It may not contain advanced features like skype, but it does what it’s designed to do best: video calling. Along with the video, it also supports voice calling; the knock-knock feature lets you preview the person calling.
Unlike other Google apps, you will not need your Google account to get into the app, it only uses your phone number to set you straight up, but you can add your email later. There is nothing much here to explain about this app with these features. The only reason it is here and I prefer it over skype is its speed. It works well even with bad connectivity and is helpful for many individuals still using 3G technology.
4. 9GAG
9GAG is a social community that is the best place for fun and entertainment. Of all the social networks I have used, 9GAG is the best and most addictive. If you love memes, funny images, and GIFs, 9GAG is for you; it is the place to find and share the most comic, trending memes and pictures on the Internet.
If you are a fan of a particular topic, you can search for posts and follow them. The best thing I love about 9GAG is UI – it’s simple, clean, and powerful, and the community is more humoring and funny than any other social platform.
5. PicsArt
With over 450 million installs, PicsArt is the number 1 app for editing photos, and it might already be installed on your phone. It has many image editing tools, clip art, filters, and millions of stickers. With a collage maker, you can create beautiful and awesome collages and memes; the best thing is it’s free!
With 100’s free templates, or if you prefer freestyle arrangement collages, PicsArt is the best and easy way to create fantastic collages. The photo editing features of PicsArt are unique. No other app on the play store provides so much photo editing under one roof. It also offers Prisma-style Al-Powered effects.
6. Lifesum
If you are a guy trying to be more healthy or a fan of fitness and health, this app will help your lifestyle goals. It comes in both free and premium versions. The free version contains essential functions like a calorie counter. The premium version has advanced functions like personalized meal plans and more.
Lifesum contains the database of nutritional values of millions of foods worldwide. So, no matter where you are from or what you eat, you can always count your calorie and nutritional intake on the go. Lifesum offers workout tips, healthy food recipes, and diet tips that help you train better and achieve weight gain/loss and overall fitness.
7. Touch VPN
Have your college blocked social media sites on wifi? Want to access regionally blocked sites? Worried about surveillance and want to surf the Internet anonymously? Using a VPN is the best option for you. Touch VPN is a free, fast, and secure VPN that provides everyone with free, unlimited service. The main reasons I like touch VPN are –
8. Google Drive
With tons of apps, photos, videos, and files, our phones are not always the best place to store our essential files and data due to some physical constraints. As our technology advances, we require more and more storage space to store our data. The solution here is cloud storage.
Google Drive is Google’s cloud storage solution which can help you free up some space on your phone. All the files stored on google drive are synced across devices, so you can access them using any device you want. You can share specific files with others and quickly view your data online without downloading it. You can even access your pictures and videos from Google Photos. The best thing about Google Drive is that it’s crazy fast, like any other Google service.
9. Pocket
Pocket is a popular Android, iOS, and Windows app. It is a service that lets you save and store articles or web pages offline for later reading. All the papers and URL you kept on Pocked is synced, which means you can access them using any device you want.
It also features follow feature, so if you want to see what famous people are reading, you can follow them and see their shared articles on their profiles.
10. LastPass Password Manager
Keeping a tab of every password on every site is often challenging. What if you have to remember only one password instead? Yes! LastPass is a password manager that stores your every password in a secure vault and autofill them every time you visit the site. The only thing you have to remember is your LastPass Master Password.
All the data stored on LastPass is synced, which means it can instantly be available on your every other device. Along with passwords, you can also keep your private notes, photos, and audio notes in your vault. All your data is encrypted with bank-level AES 256-bit encryption; not even LastPass has a key to your encrypted data.
The password generator helps you create a new, customized, robust password to replace your weak one. Sharing allows you to share your vault with friends and family. You can even share your password for individual sites.
