Smartphones are part of our lives. We depend on them because we need to keep in touch with our friends, co-workers or anyone else who plays an important role in your lives. Besides making calls, mobile devices come with other features and options, so the users can take photos, play games, chat with messaging applications etc. If you’re new to Android and you don’t know what applications to install on your smartphone, below we’ll give you a few suggestions.
Applications to download free music
The most popular application for Android was actually created by Google. Google Play Music can be downloaded from the official store and once you install it, you will have the possibility to download songs from famous artists, or to store up to 50,000 songs from your personal collection and listen to them on Android and the web. There is also a premium version which allows you to listen to songs without being interrupted by ads, and you have access to over 30 million songs. Another great paid subscription service is Spotify, but you should give SoundCloud a try as well.
Applications for watching Movies and TV Shows
If you live in the US and want to install a free application for watching movies and TV shows on your Android device, then we recommend you Hulu, but the downside of this application is that it comes with ads, so if you want to get rid of them, you will need to pay a subscription. There are plenty TV series you can watch and without a doubt, you will be tempted to have a TV shows marathon, then we suggest you to watch Seinfeld, Family Guy or the funny South Park animation. Other applications you can install on your Android device are Viewster, Flipps HD, Movie Tube Ex, Hubi etc.
Applications for your kids
If you can’t spend too much time with your kid because you’re busy with your work, there are a lot of educational applications, books and games that you can download from the Play Store and install them on the phone/tablet you’ll give your child to play on. You will need to select the age group and subcategory (Education, Games etc) and download the application you think it’s appropriate for your little one. For educational purpose, we recommend you Kids Place, Endless Alphabet, DK Readers, ColAR Mix, Talking Poppet etc.
Messengers for Android
There are plenty messaging applications you can find on the Google Play store. You should ask your friends which applications they are using, because if you download a messenger just because you like its features, but none of your friends has registered there, you won’t use it. Anyway, the best messaging applications on Android are Drupe, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Skype, Viber etc.
Exclusive applications for Android
Both iOS and Android are trying to be ahead of the other, by offering exclusive applications. When it comes to Android, Nova Launcher is a great application that will customize your device the way your want, being compatible with Android 4.1. You will change the font size, the interface and select how many applications you want to see on your lock screen.
Android apps you can download outside of Google Play
Many applications are not hosted on the Google Play store because of various reasons. One of them is because they’re illegal versions of famous applications – such as WhatsApp Plus and other derivates, but there are some applications that have disagreements between developers and other parts. TubeMate is a great application that allows you to download YouTube videos in different formats and resolutions, and the files are saved to the video section of your gallery. Dood’s Music Streamer and Grooveshark are free music streaming services, AdAway will block ads, while TV Portal is perfect for the regions that don’t have access to Hulu.
