Decent Phone Apps

[Bjornebye]

Think we had a thread on this ages ago but I can't find it. 

 

Someone recommended 'Police Scanner' to me on Twitter. Only really picks up American plod but I've spent a good hour listening to NYPD responding. 

 

I'm also addicted to 8 Ball Pool. 

 

Shazam still freaks my nut out to this day.

Genius scan is good. Basically take a picture and it turns documents into a pdf and you can email them.

Homescapes, do levels and do up your imaginary mansion.

Natwest. You can do banking and shit

Mini clip 8 ball? It’s shite on a phone, in my opinion. Used to be ace when I had a computer and mouse, though.

Ive got a 59.2% win rate which is good compared to the vast majority of Malaysian, Indian, Iraqi and Turkish opponents I seem to face daily.

Nah its boss on the phone. I used to spend hours on the one on the PC in work though. That was more of a challenges game as opposed to playing other people though.

I used to play other people on the one on the PC. I was ace at that but can’t get the hang of it on my phone. I had a couple of Sega Mega Drive games on my phone as well but couldn’t get on with them either. Old fashioned cunt, me.

Lemmings. Works surprisingly well on the phone even with fat fingers and takes me back to my youth, playing it on the Acorn Archimedes in our school's IT room.

[Oh Buoy]

Brave. 

 

Someone on here mentioned it I think, or somewhere else. 

 

Anyway, I've been using it since. 

 

Also, the Virgin Holidays app. Because I'm going on holiday soon.

What is Brave? Care to elaborate? Does it get you in the mood before a fight?

Teaches you the technique of how to tug on stray pubes, remove dried arse nuggets from the hairy jungle and how to get at those stubborn nostril hairs. 

 

It's also a browser. https://brave.com/

Just clicked on that link and its said its a private browser. Say no-more.

Dark Sky weather app is boss, well better than the free apps.

[ZonkoVille77]

1.1.1.1 for encrypted DNS lookups. It's by Cloudflare so it's trustworthy. Helps stops the selling of user data to advertisers. 

[ZonkoVille77]

Likewise Firefox Focus browser which prevents tracking and has a cookie and advert blocker

Welcome to Nightvale.

 

Also 8 ball pool is rigged. Load of shit. I had 68% win percentage, over 2 million in coins and then couldn't win a game for love nor money. Impossible in offs, getting snookered etc.

Wild, man. Wild.

Calculator. Helps to calculate stuff. 

[Aventus]

There's a few quiz games that you can play along with and win cash. Main one I go on is HQ. Actually it might have been somebody on here that mentioned it now I think about it. 

 

Answer something like 10 questions, and the prize pool gets split between every winner. Sometimes they have special events for extra money. Great way to kill 10 minutes. 

 

 

Twilight, it turns your screen a red/orange tint at night and stops you getting eye aids. 

 

Mobdro for a list of illegal sports channel streams to avoid. 

 

SwiftKey, its usually the first thing I install and then completely forget it exists, replaces the stock keyboard on the phone. I miss it when it's not there. 

 

 

And for a weird one, wakie:

 

Replaces your phone alarm clock with a random stranger somewhere in the world calling you through the app and telling you wake up. Or you can set the app to call and wake some other cunt up yourself.

Any apps for recurring bills and etc?

 

Like a monthly budget tracker that has all your direct debits, etc..

[Remmie]

Untappd beer rating app is great. Pokemon for the pub. I've rated over 1200 beers. Think I added a couple of you hosers from the other thread.

I recently took up playing chess (always wanted to try but never got round to it) so downloaded the Chess.com app and it's excellent. It's free and you can play ramdom people from all over the world on it. I'm totally shit at it so far but I love it.
