There are tons of apps out there for Android user both the good, the bad and the ugly ones. There are some that are almost totally useless to our everyday kind of life style, while there are some that we just cant do without daily.
In this article, i will be making a list of JUST 7 (out of the numerous) android application that i have found useful in one way or the other to me. You too might find them of great value too.




1. CAMSCANNER
This app does a great job of cleaning up the pictures and jumbling them into one PDF.
 Turn your phone and tablet into scanner for intelligent document management With CamScanner, any documents you see in real world can be digitized and saved right away with your mobile phone.

Just take a photo, and CamScanner take care of the rest. - Scan any kind of document in seconds, texts or graphics. - Scan multi-page documents - Batch scan documents - Auto-crop scanned photos - Smart-enhance the scan results - Several Enhance Modes available - Save scan results to system album - Create PDF files for scans - Customize PDF page size: 10 page size options (Letter, A4, B5 and etc.)






  2. PVSTAR+



This is NO AD version of PVSTAR+. With this app, you can create and manage playlist for Youtube, DailyMotion videos and MV.

Moreover, continuous playback, background playback, repeat playback are also supported. The main features are as follows. - Video search (YouTube, DailyMotion, NicoVideo, Vimeo) - Voice search - Search Youtube playlists - Search Youtube channels - Category Search - Playlist playback .

it can play YouTube videos and more in the background/with the screen off



   3. LLAMA


This is an automation app for Android. it allows you to create customized if/then events based on your phone's current state, such as your location (from cell tower, WiFi, or GPS), time of day,
current app, charging state, etc.

For instance, Llama can detect when you're near your workplace and switch to a quiet notification/ring profile. You can create an alarm that only goes off based on time and location, for example if you're at home running late for work.

I've used it to toggle on/off my dashcam app when I'm driving. There are similar apps out there, such as Tasker (not free), but I've found Llama to be the most versatile.
 Particularly useful is that Llama can reliably deduce your location from cell towers, in addition to having 'variables' you can set to create more complex triggers with greater ease: one to correspond to whether I'm sleeping, driving, working, etc. that can be used to determine if other events should trigger.




   4.  WORD LENS TRANSLATOR

Word Lens Translator is an app that lets you translate any poster or printed text in real time using the camera on your Android device.

The only thing you have to do to use Word Lens Translator is select the language you want to translate, point the camera at the text, and keep it as stable as possible for a few seconds. Within moments you'll see, like magic, the translation as it appears in real time on your screen.

The best uses of Word Lens Translator are for restaurant menus, posters, signs, and news headlines, since the clearer the text the smaller the chance of errors in the translation. It's important to remember, though, that the app has a very hard time deciphering handwritten script.  Word Lens Translator is an incredibly useful app for people who travel often. With it you can find out the exact meaning of any sign in any language that's not your own.



  5.  TEXTRA


Use Textra default messaging app instead of the stock one- it's way more customizable (including sending delays so that you can stop a message from being sent if you accidentally send it too soon).

Textra is simply outstanding!

Comes with a bunch of great features, notably 100+ material design theme / bubble / app icon colors, dark & light modes, bubble styles, scheduled (future) SMS & MMS, delayed sending (stop while sending), slide to delete / call, quick snap camera, multi-select picture gallery, quick reply popup, awesome MMS GROUP messaging, quick voice memos, 21 text sizes, SMS blocker / blacklisting, auto video & picture compression and lots more...

Customize your preferred bubble colors, signatures and notifications (icon color, LED color, sound, vibration, privacy, reminders and muting) PER CONVERSATION as well.

 
     6.  PUSHBULLET


It allows you to send messages between your phone and your computer and it shows you messages you receive on your phone as a desktop notification.
Pushbullet is "the app you never knew you needed"
SAVE TIME
• Text from your computer using your keyboard instead of grabbing your phone

       AND NOW TO THE ONE I LOVE MOST (DRUM ROLL. . . .)
   

   7. Greenify


Never should your phone or tablet become slower and battery hungrier after lots of apps installed. With Greenify, your device can run almost as smoothly and lastingly as it did the first day you had it!

Greenify help you identify and put the misbehaving apps into hibernation when you are not using them, to stop them from lagging your device and leeching the battery, in an unique way! 

They can do nothing without explicit launch by you or other apps, while still preserving full functionality when running in foreground, similar to iOS apps!

    



 THESE ARE BASED ON MY OPINION. I KNOW THERE ARE OTHERS THAT HELP YOU PERSONALLY IN YOUR DAILY LIVING. CARE TO US THAT "NOT SO POPULAR" APP THAT YOU JUST CANT DO WITHOUT OFTEN?
