Fanly

HeadsOff

Touchscreen input has come a long way, but there is still a lot more to be improved. Inputting+ aims to fix that by adding shortcuts for undo, redo, and find & replace on touchscreen keyboards. When you’re typing a bubble will pop up with the shortcuts. [Download]

Portal

Pounce

pounce

Pounce is a shopping app that lets you snap a photo of any item and then instantly identify it, find it at a favorite store, and buy it. It’s a lot like the “Firefly” feature on the Amazone Fire Phone, but you don’t have to buy a crappy phone to use it. [Download]

Redub

Editing videos on mobile is still something that not many apps have perfected. Redub attempts to fix the problem by keeping it simple, but removing the limits that other “simple” video editors impose. You can edit your own videos with filters and effects, or remix publicly available videos. [Download]

Shoot

shoot

Shoot makes it easy to send a big batch of photos or a large video directly from your Android device to your friends. It doesn’t matter what device they use or which network they are on as long as they can scan a QR code. Just select all that you want to send and a QR code is generated for you to share. [Download]

Siz

siz

Sometimes you just don’t have time to watch a full video. You just want the best part, and in a GIF. Siz creates a strip of GIFs made with the highlights of videos. No more wasted time looking randomly for the interesting parts of the video. [Download]

You know what dogs really need? Tindr. You never thought about that? Well, someone else did. Tindog is like Tindr, but for dogs to make new friends. You can chat with other dog owners and set up play dates. It’s a little bit insane, but also kinda cool. [Download]

Ever since I flipped open my first phone I've been obsessed with the devices. I've dabbled in other platforms, but Android is where I feel most at home.

Android 5.1 is rolling out tomorrow for the DROID Turbo

  1. Kodi Media Center and Fanly. Thank you Phandroid!!!! This is why I come to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. Fanly looks like a great app and one that I want but I don’t use Facebook or Twitter so I can’t even use the app because you have to log in with one of those two

      1. i’m with you on that, I tried it out but cant use Fanly because I’ve been on FB for like 3 years now. I hate when they need that as a requirement.

  2. “Heads off” saved my phone! Can’t live without it, recommended!!!

  3. Seems we haven’t had one of these posts in a while. I’ll be checking out a few of them. Pounce- “It’s a lot like the “Firefly” feature on the Amazone Fire Phone, but you don’t have to buy a crappy phone to use it.” LOL. It’s too bad Shoot only allow 3 free sends, I’ll stick to BT.

  4. WEATHER LIVE!!! Check it out, it’s beautiful!

  5. Vessel, it’s just like Youtube except you have to pay a monthly fee! Great idea!

  6. I haven’t tried most of the stuff on your list. But I recently downloaded this app called GrabPoints and so far I’m liking it. They have lots of offers in a day and the surveys aren’t long. Points given out are quite high and they’re fair about giving the points. Oddly enough they always give out points on their social media accounts too! hahaha! Anyway here’s my invite code: S6FMAC you get 50PTS right away for using it. If you download GRABPOINTS you get $1 just for signing up. You guys have to try it.
