PixelPhone
Your phone app probably has smart dialing. There's a good chance it has a blacklist too and support for favorites and groups. It's less likely to have caller ID, a selection of themes and customizable gesture controls.But you get a whole lot for free and it really embodies the spirit of Android, by allowing you to tweak the look and feel of the app until you're happy.
Motion
Ever wanted to bring all your old Warhammer pieces or children's toys to life? Well with Motion you can, or at least to some kind of stop motion life.The app couldn't be simpler: you just point your phone at whatever you want to animate, press the big yellow button on the screen, then slightly move anything that you want to show in motion. From that, press the button again and continue like that until you've created your masterpiece.
You can always go back and add more frames to a project at any point, so you don't need to set aside a whole afternoon to get an intricate animation done in one go. Once you finally are finished you can save it to your phone and send it to your friends/your kids/anyone else who'll still talk to you after seeing your shonky stop motion.
Flytube
The YouTube app does a good job of bringing convenient access to millions of videos but there's one glaring limitation: You can't multitask with it. If you go back to your home screen or jump across to another app the video stops playing.Flytube fixes this by opening the video in a small window, which sits over the top of whatever screen you're on, but can be moved to wherever is least in the way.
While viewing a video in a small window isn't ideal, it works well for songs that you're listening to (rather than watching), or for quickly checking something before returning to full screen footage.
Prisma
You might never be the next Picasso, but with Prisma you can make your photos look convincingly like an artistic masterpiece.The app sports dozens of filters, largely based around specific painters or art styles and with a single tap (and a bit if a wait - plus you need to be online) you can apply any of these to any of your photos.
Once you've applied your filter of choice you can lessen the effect with a swipe if it's veered too far from the source image for your liking, then you can save and share your creations with another few taps.

Zinio
Ereaders are great for books, but if you want a digital library of magazines a tablet, or even a smartphone, is a better bet and Zinio makes building that library easy.
It's both a storefront and reader, offering over 5,000 different magazines from across the world, though not all in English.
Your whole library is stored online, so you can access it from other devices, but you can also download your magazines if you want to read them on a plane or elsewhere with no internet connection.
Fluenty
Replying to a message isn't usually hard, but if you're walking, have your hands full or are just swamped with texts a one-tap reply can be useful and Fluenty makes that a possibility.
And Fluenty works on both smartphones and smartwatches. It's especially useful on the latter, where typing out a message really is a pain, but you might be surprised how often a one-tap response comes in handy on your phone too.
ASAP Launcher
ASAP Launcher at once feels minimalist and powerful, thanks to a wealth of features all tucked away into an intuitive, uncluttered interface.It only really gives you one true home screen, so if you like having all your apps visible, rather than leaving them in folders or the app drawer, ASAP Launcher might not be for you, but by limiting you it forces you to keep your home screen tidy.
Pi Music Player
A high-quality, feature-packed, easy to use music player with a stylish aesthetic and no cost. That might sound too good to be true, but somehow Pi Music Player delivers on all fronts.For one thing it looks great (not that you'll probably spend too long looking at it once you've queued some tracks up), but with album artwork and a classy interface you won't mind the time you do spend in front of it.
But Pi Music Player has the basics covered well too, with an equalizer, several different ways to sort and view your music, multiple themes and easy-to-build playlists.
Music Maker Jam
You're not likely to compose a masterpiece with Music Maker Jam, but if you want to get started in music creation it's a simple, approachable tool and even if you're already an expert it's fun to fiddle around with.There's less to it than something like Caustic 3, but that means you can learn the basics and start making music that actually sounds good in a matter of minutes, by combining up to eight samples and looping and tweaking them until you're happy.
A bunch of samples are included for free, but you can buy extras or even record your own if you're really feeling creative.
Dango
If you prefer to use emojis and GIFs than words, then Dango could be your saviour. Dubbed an 'emoji assistant' it's essentially a cute little icon which pops up whenever you're using a messaging app. Tap it and it will display relevant emojis, GIFs and stickers to whatever you're typing, so you can quickly add them to your message.But it can also analyze the text in messages you receive, so you can send a relevant emoji response with a tap, and Dango is smart enough only to display GIFs as an option in apps which fully support them.
You might understandably be concerned about privacy with the app analyzing your messages, but it promises that data never leaves your device, so the only thing to worry about is an emoji addiction.
Gravity Gestures
Bored of tapping and swiping? Then Gravity Gestures could be for you, as it allows you to launch four apps or functions of your choice with gestures, which for the most part take the form of a couple of quick rotations of your phone.
The app itself has adverts, but once you've set your gestures up you never need to set foot in it again, so they're not remotely intrusive.
Patreon
If you've ever wanted to be a patron of the arts now's your chance, as Patreon is designed to help artists find backers and you don't have to be rich to get involved.
But rather than a one off pledge (and a one off reward), on Patreon you donate an amount every month, and get ongoing rewards, such as monthly concept art and behind the scenes access.
The app is easy to navigate and gives you the ability to browse projects, follow creators and read your messages, so you can invest in creativity wherever you are.
Kids Place - Parental Control
Letting a child loose on your phone or tablet is asking for trouble. If they don't find something inappropriate, fire off a gibberish email to your boss or accidentally delete all your photos you've got off lucky, but with Kids Place - Parental Control you can create a safe environment for them, where they can't access anything you don't want them to.
The app lets you choose exactly which other apps you want to allow them to use and then they can launch them from within Kids Place itself and won't be able to exit to the main home screen without a PIN.
The look of the app feels slightly lacking in polish, but it's easy for children to navigate, with big icons to launch other whitelisted apps.
AmpMe
Playing music out of smartphone speakers is never ideal, but with AmpMe you can at least pump up the volume, if not the quality, to impressive levels.
The app lets you start playing a song through SoundCloud, YouTube or your own music collection and then any nearby friends with the app can join the party, with the music syncing up and playing out of everyone's phones.
It's a shame there aren't more supported music sources and the app does have adverts, but it's free and it works at the push of a button.
Lens Launcher
We're always on the lookout for new launchers, especially those which are a bit different and Lens Launcher is certainly that.
Where most Android phones give you four or five rows of apps spread across a number of home screens, Lens Launcher puts all your apps on a single screen.
It does this regardless of the size of your screen or the number of apps you have, by shrinking the icons down as much as necessary- though you have some control over the amount of shrinkage from it's settings screen. Then you can just tap an app to launch it as normal.
You might think they'd be hard to find laid out like that, but as they're listed alphabetically you can quickly home in on the approximate area.
It's a neat visual trick and ensures that even if there are hundreds of apps onscreen it's never overwhelming.
Sesame Lock Screen
With Sesame Lock Screen you might never need to venture into the app drawer again, as it has all the same features and more stuck to your lock screen.It even features a kind of 'live widget' functionality, where you can hook it up to apps like Uber or Lyft and see live car availability without having to launch their apps.But Sesame is smart as well, learning what apps you use the most and putting
You can stick Sesame Lock Screen either on your lock screen (while leaving any security settings intact), or get to it with a long press of the home button from anywhere on your phone to add a little extra sauce to your Android experience.
Quik - Free Video Editor
The Google Play store is full of powerful video editors, but Quik isn't one of them. That's not to say it isn't worth your time though, just that it won't take up very much of it.
It can automatically detect faces and colours, so it usually does a good job of framing photos on its own and it cycles through your images and clips in time to the music, so with a few taps you can come away with a competent creation.That's all handled through a simple, colourful interface with just a handful of screens and menus, making it as quick as the name suggests.
Boost+
There's no shortage of apps that promise to speed up your smartphone or clear up space on it, but Boost+ stands out in a few ways.
For one thing it comes from HTC, so it's got the backing of a big brand. As such it's also suitably polished, with a clean, colourful interface that's easy to navigate and shows you the state of your phone's storage and memory at a glance.
Head beyond the main screen and there are options to clear out any temporary files to claw space back on your device and find the apps you never use, so you can delete them and get even more MBs.
Finally, for some reason, it also lets you lock other apps. That in itself is a useful feature, but feels somewhat unrelated to its core functionality - but hey, privacy is privacy, right?

Call Recorder - ACR
With Call Recorder – ACR the days of having a pen and paper to hand to write down important information mid-call are over.The app will record your calls for you, as you can probably guess from the name, and it records both sides of the conversation, so you won't just be listening to the soothing tones of your own voice.
Add in a range of different recording formats, support for cloud storage and a simple system for playing back recordings, which allows you to pause and jump around to different points in them, and Call Recorder – ACR is a full-featured solution. Just remember to tell people you're recording to stay legal and all that.
Snapseed
Snapseed is Google's own photo editor that's been designed from the ground up to make tweaking your snaps as easy and fun as possible on a touchscreen Android device.
Although the interface is simple enough to use with just your fingers, there's also a lot of depth to this app as well. You use tools to tweak and enhance your photographs to make them look the best they ever have, as well as playing around with fun filters that can transform the photos you've taken on your smartphone or tablet.
Cardboard Camera
VR is far from mainstream yet, but with Google Cardboard it is at least affordable. If you've got yourself a Google Cardboard viewer (most of which are literally made out of cardboard and cost very little) then you'll want to check out Cardboard Camera.
This Google app is designed to take panoramic photos, which you can then experience in VR. Images are given real depth, you can look around them as you wish and even hear sounds as they happen if recorded.
It's a new way to experience photos which brings them to life more than ever before. You'll look ridiculous wearing the viewer on your head in the process, but it's worth it to relive embarrassing drunken antics in glorious VR.
VLC for Android
It might not be quite as glamorous as other media players, but if you want a no-nonsense app that can play pretty much any media file under the sun, then VLC for Android is the app for you.
It spent a long time in beta, but it now delivers a stable, full-featured experience, complete with support for subtitles, multi-track audio, DVD ISOs and network streams.
That's all packaged in an easy to use player, with widgets and gesture controls. So you don't need to worry about getting your media to work, you just need to launch VLC and press play. The app will do the rest.
Nova Launcher
Swipedge
If you've been getting edge-envy at the sight of the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge then Swipedge could be the answer, or at least the closest thing to an answer that doesn't involve shelling out hundreds on a new phone.
No, it won't magically curve your screen, but it will give you access to some of the same features as the edge display.
Swipedge puts a bar on the edge of your screen, similar to the one on Samsung's curved phones and wiping your finger inwards from it will bring up shortcuts to apps of your choosing, along with the ability to change the volume of any media that's playing.
It's a little rough around the edges at the moment and not as full-featured as Samsung's offering, but that's forgiveable given that it's still in beta.
The important thing is that it works, even if your screen is as flat as a table. It's also quite customisable, allowing you to change the size, position, colour and transparency of the bar, or hide it altogether with an upwards swipe.
SketchBook Express
If you're a budding digital artist on the go then make sure you download Sketchbook Express, an amazingly powerful and versatile app that can turn your Android phone or tablet into a digital canvas.Once you've finished sketching you can save your creation to your gallery, or share it straight to the community on deviantART.
App Lock
Sometimes locking your phone isn't enough. Say you want to lend it to a friend or colleague but don't want to risk them digging up those ill-advised photos you took in Ibiza or that Harry Potter fanfic you've got planned out in your notes app.With App Lock there's no danger of anyone getting into anything you don't want them to, as you can use it to lock individual apps with a PIN, pattern or fingerprint.The lockscreens it presents you with look good too, with colours to match the apps they're locking. But if you're using a fingerprint scanner you won't waste too much time looking at them anyway, as you'll be swiftly in.
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom has been available on Android for a while, but previously it required a paid subscription to Creative Cloud. Now it's free, giving you all the tools you need to edit your images through an intuitive interface.
You'll still need to subscribe to Creative Cloud if you want to use Lightroom on desktop, but this free version is perfect for mobile modders.
YouTube Kids
With millions of child-friendly videos, YouTube has the potential to be a digital playground for kids, the problem is there's also a lot of unsuitable content. That's where YouTube Kids comes in, automatically filtering unsuitable content and providing a simple, colourful interface which your child can easily navigate.
Being automated there's a chance some unsuitable stuff will still slip through, but if you switch the search option off your child will be limited to the app's recommendations. This still gives them a lot to watch, while completely cutting them off from the wider world of YouTube.
Photo Editor PRO
Stagelight
Stagelight not only lets you create music on your smartphone, through simple and easy loop-style production, it also teaches you how to, with lessons on building a beat, recording instruments, editing audio and more.
The app includes keyboards, a drum machine, effects and thousands of sounds which you can add to your composition if you don't fancy creating your own. That's all free, but a built in store lets you add new sounds and features as and when you want them, making for a truly full-featured music production app.
