ES File Explorer
File sharing is an important part of android. When it comes to file handling, ES File Explorer File Manager is a beast. It offers solid file management tools and an ever-expanding list of extra features that you may not have expected out of a file explorer. For file management, you can expect much of the same functionality as you would find on any other operating system. Create folders, move/copy/paste your files between folders, rename files and folders, it can even zip and unzip (RAR) compressed folders. This same functionality extends well beyond your local device, as you can access your Google Drive, Dropbox, and other cloud storage locations using the same tools. It has an inbuilt photo gallery, media player, download manager, the ability to not only access FTP servers, but to turn your device into an FTP server itself to share specified folders, and more. It has a root explorer also and recently added chrome-casting capabilities.
Telegram
Telegram is a social network that began in the year 2013, created in Russia by Pavel Durov and his brother from the source of another project called VK (famous Russian Social, Like Facebook).
The App in the course of the years has increased its functions and has become the first direct competitor of Whatsapp. Actually, the APP can say to have around 200 million active users per month. Telegram may be among the most popular messaging services in the world, yet there are still many who don’t know what it’s all about. Some pros are that you can use Secret Chat with the auto-delete feature of the media you send, group, and channels management(you can do a lot of customization).
Zedge
This is a wallpaper, ringtones, notification tones, and alarm tones app that gives you an unbelievable number of options to customize the most basic parts of your device. On top of having an exhaustive collection of things, Zedge also promotes various items during holiday seasons making it easy to theme your phone up for Christmas, Halloween, and other holidays. It’s not 100% perfect. It does have the occasional bug and some irritating advertisements. Zedge Premium is a new initiative to provide premium content at a reasonable price. You watch ads or fill out surveys to earn Zedge credits. You can buy them as well with in-app purchases. It’s a good way to support the developer and the artists.
Google Maps
This is one seriously powerful app. It also works on most Android devices. You simply download the app and then enable it. From there, you can ask it whatever you want. It also supports a variety of commands. You can control lights, ask about population control, and it can even do simple math problems for you. There are a variety of products like Google, Bose QC II Bluetooth headphones, Home and Chromecast that extent the functionality even further. There is also a second Google Assistant app for those who want a quick launch icon on the home screen. The hardware stuff costs money, but Google Assistant is free. Amazon Alexa is another excellent App in this space, but it doesn’t support Google Android quite as much as we would like, yet.
CamScanner
CamScanner is probably the best document scanner app on mobile. You use the app to scan documents into your phone and convert them to PDF format. You then send that document through email, save it to your device, and you can even fax it for a nominal fee.
Xender
This App can transfer and share any type of files, from photos, documents, music, videos, apps without mobile data usage across android to android, android to ios, and Android to PC.
Snapseed
Snapseed is a complete and professional photo editor developed by Google is one of the best photo editing app available on Playstore. It includes all the Pro tools that are required to edit the pictures like HDR healing, white balance, lens blur, and many more. Additionally, you get various effects and filters for fancy editing. This app even supports Raw images. We even get a really well design UI. With recent updates, we can now add fancy texts to the images.
Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard
Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard is one of the most powerful and customizable third-party keyboards available. It hit the market several years ago with a predictive engine unlike anything any other keyboard had and the app has grown a lot of over the years. It’s a free download and you can purchase themes for it if you want to. Other features include a dedicated number row, SwiftKey Flow which allows for gesture typing, multiple language support, cross-device syncing of your library, and much more. It’s about as good as it gets in the keyboard space. It’s true that Microsoft now owns SwiftKey, but so far they have managed not to mess it up. Gboard, Google’s keyboard app, is also exceptionally good and is an excruciatingly close second place here.
