The most interesting and useful news on Google Play this month.

Applications

1. Clubhouse

At first, Clubhouse was surrounded by an areola of mystery and elitism, because the social network was available only for iOS users. Now the app has come to Android too. You can create rooms and talk to your friends there, as well as listen to popular speakers.

2.lifeAR

You are probably familiar with the TeamViewer program for remote computer control. It allows you to help your friends and family if they are tech-savvy.

But TeamViewer only works with software problems. What if your interlocutor, for example, cannot insert the cord into the connector or press the desired button on the panel? This is where lifeAR comes in handy.

This is a video calling program with augmented reality effect. Using AR annotations, 3D pointers and emojis, you can show your family at a glance where to connect.

3. Pixabay

Pixabay is one of the largest collections of free images on the web for designers and artists to use in their projects. Recently, the resource has created a mobile application with convenient access to thousands of pictures. A great source of desktop wallpapers.

4. Clipt

Cross-platform clipboard that can sync copied text and pictures between all your devices on which it is installed. In addition to the Android version, there is also an extension for Chrome, so you can send text to computers with Windows, macOS and Linux. It's much faster than sending yourself files to Google Drive.

5. One Swipe Notes

To record in most notes on Android, you first need to find them in the main menu and launch them. It is long and not very convenient. One Swipe Notes also displays a window for writing text by swiping from the edge of the screen. You will be able to add reminders and capture your thoughts without switching between applications.

6. Wroom

This program is not particularly useful from a practical point of view, but it is extremely fun. It is intended for cyclists and simulates the sound of an internal combustion engine. Using an accelerometer, Wroom measures your speed, and the faster you move, the more intense the sound it produces. Make your Ural bike growl like the Yamaha R1 speed bike.

7. Dailly

A simple program that helps you focus on the tasks at hand. Add multiple goals, specify due dates, and Dailly will display them in large text so you don't forget about them. No trackers, registrations or other clutter of functions - all data is stored only on your smartphone.

8. Mi Band 6 Watch Faces

A large collection of cute dials for the Mi Band 6 smart bracelet. There are both analog and digital watch skins and beautiful progress bars of various themes: cartoons, sports, minimalism and so on.

9. Upnote

A new cute note-taking application, a kind of analogue of the famous Evernote. It has the ability to format text, add bulleted and numeric lists, insert photos, spreadsheets or attachments. Clients are available for Windows, macOS, Android and iOS.

2. Plate Shatter

Have you ever had it so that you want to break all the dishes out of anger, but it's a pity? The Plate Shatter game will give you the opportunity to throw out negative emotions without introducing unnecessary chaos into the world. Smash the plates on your smartphone screen - unleash your craving for destruction. But just do not get carried away and do not split your own gadget.
