5 Apps To Make Your Android Smartphone Even Better

Smartphones have become such an intricate part of our life that spending even an hour without looking at the gleaming screen may seem like an insurmountable task. We are carrying a small and powerful personal computer, which keeps us up-to-date with all personal and professional news and enables us to do our tasks on the move. The Google Play Store has numerous alternatives for almost every need that you discover while using your indispensable Android phone. I am intentionally using the phrase 'the need that you discover'. Who would have thought that anyone would ever need 'Yelp' until it arrived on the scene, That being said, in the sea of applications, searching for a few good and productive apps could be a daunting task for anyone. It has been quite a time since I am an Android user, and listed below are the applications that may not be very common (except Evernote) but could be extremely useful for any Android smartphone users.

Duplicate Photos Fixer is one of the simplest ways of organizing a picture gallery. It is an impressive application that allows you to detect and delete duplicate images from your Android device. After scanning your phone, the tool automatically categorizes all the duplicate photos in groups (each group holds the set of identical photographs) and enables you to preview and delete those pictures. There is an 'Auto-Mark' option that automatically marks all duplicate images (except one in each group) for deletion and allows you to remove them in one go. By not marking one photo of each group, the app holds back the original image and deletes all of its duplicate copies. Duplicate Photos Fixer supports both internal and external memory storage. Over the time, the address book of your phone gets filled with hundreds of half-baked or duplicate contacts, which do little more than cluttering the address book. Duplicate Contacts Remover is an excellent utility that allows you to detect duplicate, invisible or empty contacts.

With the help of this contact management utility, you can effortlessly revamp and organize your address book. As the name suggests, Right Back-up Anywhere takes the backup of your Android smartphone so that if you lose access to it, you can restore all backup files of your phone on any other device or computer. Once you have taken the backup, you can access the backup files on your computer or on any other smartphone, and all you need is just an Internet connection. Right Back-up Anywhere can be assessed through its application or with the help of any web browser, and hence, it gives you an extremely flexible way of accessing files on the move and keeping them safe from any accidental loss. Plus, you are keeping all the files secure in cloud without any risk of data theft as the data reside on encrypted servers. Designed with user-oriented features, it also lets you share any files with your friends and family members.

Evernote provides a modern way of writing, editing and saving all your notes, checklists and research. It lets you organize web articles, docs and photos online. While signing up with the app, you will be greeted with a monthly limited space that you can use to upload your worksheets or checklists. You can create and organize to-do lists, checklists and notebooks. It also allows you to attach Office docs, PDF files and even images. Within the app, you can discuss about the notes, share your notebooks with your team and even create actions or items. The best part is its cloud-based service. You are just required to create an account, and all your notes will be automatically synced to any device through which you log in to your Evernote account. Everyone wants a spectacular camera for his or her Android smartphone. But how big a camera sensor, which is responsible for capturing light and generating the image as we see it, can be fitted in the small and thin body of pocket-sized smartphones, Not as big as that in a DSLR, right,

And thus, even if that camera is capable of clicking superb photos in day-light, the low-light images are far from perfect. Using flash often results in annoying little speckles or grains that are called Noise. Photo Noise Reducer Pro is the quick-fix for such grainy pictures. With one-tap it corrects any noisy image to give it a spectacular look without sacrificing on the photo's details. With its three noise-reduction modes, i.e. Light, Medium and Custom, you can remove grains per their significance on a particular photograph. Before saving, you can preview the corrected image and compare it with the original one. A slider named 'Smooth' is also there to clean-up the remaining issues. The app has a built-in camera through which one can click a photo and correct its noise immediately. These are the applications that I will keep in my phone for time to come. I hope you also find these applications useful and productive.
