15 Best Android Apps You Must Have In 2016 by Aaree(m): 1:27pm On May 06, 2016
last year was a very great year for the tech industry around the world witnessing a phenomenal rise in the mobile market, now we are into the 5th month of 2016 and it promises to be even better, most or a lot of people are now using android phones , also there has been a lot of talk about the best android apps and as android continues to dominate the mobile market it is important to say that the android OS offers a lot in terms of capabilities and use and it certainly has a lot of apps that continues to help users by making their life a lot easier.


Here are the top 15 android apps in no particular order

1.Evernote

According to Wikipedia Evernote is a cross-platform, freemium app designed for note taking, organizing, and archiving. It is developed by the Evernote Corporation, a private company headquartered in Redwood City, California. The app allows users to create a “note” which can be a piece of formatted text, a full webpage or webpage excerpt, a photograph, a voice memo, or a handwritten “ink” note

Evernote works on every smartphone and tablets, essentially It’s an app that serves as your personal notetaker, PDA or to-do list, The app is made up of notebooks and notes, like it is done in real life where You create a notebook for a particular topic, then fill that notebook with notes. I must say that this is one of the best android apps out there

2. Pocket
This one is the best android apps out there and my personal favorite, not just because of the features but because of the simplicity and ease of use. Evernote is an app that allows the people to save an article or web page for later reading. The article is then stored on the user’s Pocket list for later or offline reading. This is just like you saving something in your normal pocket and retrieving it later when you need it for instance let’s say You were reading an article on your phone and was interrupted by say your sister, all you have to do is put them in pocket and come back later to read it.

3. Duolingo
Duolingo is a free language learning tool that helps users to learn different languages In a very effective and yet simple manner, the app allows users to learn over 23 different language with over 56 available language courses and some still in the works. So with duolingo you can now learning that language you have always wanted to learn Spanish, French, Latin, Arabic and a host of others. The wonderful thing here is that you are getting this for free, isn’t it wonderful.

4. Action launcher 3

Android Launchers gives you a simple way to customize the look and feel of your Android phone. It uses a combination of new icons, a new app drawer layout, a new homescreen and new wallpaper to make your device fit a certain style or theme. this app is easily the best android app for many people.

If you have not used it before then you are missing out on this great app, Action Launcher 3 gives you clear and intuitive interface changes giving your android incredible look and feel. With Action Launcher 3 you can make simple changes such as changing the app drawer layout, changing app icons, and even customizing the way you use your homescreen folders. It offers genuinely useful interface improvements.

5. Dropbox
Dropbox is an app that allows you store files and access it from anywhere on your desktop, dropbox website or app or any device connected to dropbox. Among other things It solves the problem of you having to carry your flash drive or hard disk containing your files around, this means you don’t have to take your flash drive with you everywhere you are going. All you have to do is store the files on your dropbox folder and you will be able to access it from anywhere you are using the dropbox website or any device connected to dropbox.

You can remotely set up Dropbox in just one click, for yourself and for your friends, family and colleagues too. You can store any kind of file ranging from document, music ,video etc

6. SwiftKey
SwiftKey which some users and experts have labeled the world smartest keyboard is reputed to offer the best keyboard features and a must have for every android smartphones, giving you the best typing experience. It uses an algorithm built by analyzing text to predict what you are trying to type, and what you want to type next and as the more you use it the better it gets in helping you to type. For instance if you type what in SwiftKey, it will automatically help you predict what you want to type next like “are you” you get the gist. It is indeed a very lovely tool.

7. Pushbullet
Pushbullet is an app that allows you to transmit items from desktop PC to Android device, or Android to PC, quickly and easily. This app in my judgement is one of the fastest way to send links, notes, lists, files, and addresses both from your desktop computer to your mobile device and vice versa. This is done from the Pushbullet Android app, the service’s Web site, it allows you to send the files or links a s a push which makes it extra convenient and easy.

Another interesting thing about this app is that it allows you to view notifications from your phone on your desktop, isn’t that awesome. It is a must have

8. Google translates
Google Translate is a free app provided by Google to translate text, speech, images, and video from one language into another. For instance let say you are visiting a country that speaks a language different than yours, Google’s Translate comes handy as helps you to translates text or speech to the country’s language .It offers a web interface, mobile interfaces for Android and iOS.

9. Feedly
Feedly is an application which aggregates news,post and information from your favorites blogs, websites into one account, it brings you news from any and every platform into your smartphone all in one place for your enjoyment, having used this app my self I must say that its a very lovely app.

Feedly works on various web browsers and mobile devices running iOS and Android, also available as a cloud-based service. It compiles news feeds from a variety of online sources for the user to use.
