In today’s world, people like to use smartphones more than personal computers. Who would not want to use smartphones?
Smartphones are like powerful mini-computers that we can carry in our
pockets. Especially if we talk about the Android platform, the users
are growing in a large number every year because of budget price and
advanced features.
Android ROMs come with many useful features but are those features enough for an Android Geek? of course not!
Here we’ve filtered out some cool and fun applications who can extend or add more features to your Android smartphone and will give you the feel of a pro user.
Are you ready? Let’s see what we have in the list.
#1. Beta Maniac
Price: Free
This application is for them who love to use the Beta version of apps
to get early access to the upcoming features. But isn’t it boring to
look for the beta version of apps one by one by going through the Play
Store?
Beta Maniac application lists all the beta versions of apps from the
Google Play store. You just need to sign in to the app and there you
will see a never-ending list of the beta versions of the apps that are
available on the Play Store.
If you see a greentick mark on an app, then it means you are already using the beta version of that app. But if you see a bluetick mark on an app, then it means the beta version of that app is available on the Play Store.
Click on the beta version to install it. You can also scan for a new
beta version of any application authorized by the Play Store using the
Beta Maniac application.
#2. Typewise Keyboard
Price: Free/Pro
Who doesn’t like to use different gesture control ideas? Most people
hide there navigation bar and make their smartphones full screen just to
use the gesture feature. Well, only those who use the latest models of
Android smartphones.
It is okay to use gestures for navigation or to take a screenshot but
if it comes to gesture typing, not so many people are interested to use
this feature. Google keyboard already comes with the gesture typing
feature but we bet you most people don’t use it.
But Typewise Keyboard is different. If you use this keyboard only for once you will fell in love with gesture typing.
There are many gestures in this keyboard and it was not easy for us
to find out all the gestures but we’ve managed to figure out that if you
swipe it horizontally to the left it will delete the sentence or word
and if you swipe it horizontally again to the right, it will restore the
deleted sentence.
Figure out the features yourselves!
#3. Google Activity Bubbles
Price: Free
There are some developers who really worry about the time we kill by
using our smartphones. They constantly work on building digital
well-being apps to let us know how we are wasting our time by using our
smartphones day and night.
Google is constantly working on this category too! Most digital
well-being apps are boring and not all like to open and check out what’s
going on with the app, but Google has sorted out this problem.
Google Activity Bubbles allows you to set wallpaper and depending on
your smartphone usage bubbles are gathered on the wallpaper. The more
you have bubbles on the screen the more you used your smartphone on that
day.
The next morning, you will find the screen neat and clean, and as you
will start using your smartphone, the bubbles will start gathering.
#4. Volume Style
Price: Free/Premium
Most of us are very sensitive about the look of our smartphones. Even
with a simple and little thing. If you are sensitive about the look of
your smartphone, then this application is for you.
Volume Style lets you customize your volume bar to replace it with
some popular ROMs. Choose the look of the volume bar in the app and
simply apply it.
#5. WiFi AR

It wasn’t expected that this app will be this cool while we were
trying to figure out how this app works. WiFi AR shows your WiFi
strength around you by giving a feeling of virtual reality.

#6. Crono
