Also, stay tuned with us on Google+, Twitter or Facebook for more next week and so forth.

LinkSwipe

LinkSwipe lets you add different actions to clicks on a web-link outside of an internet browser app on your Android device. The app let’s you add swipe actions to a link, for example you can set the link to be opened with a particular app when you Tap and swipe left on a link, while performing a single tap still opens the link in a browser.

filtxr

Filtxr is a screen filter that can dim the brightness of your device’s display even lower than the default minimum brightness. There are four modes – comfortable, pure, night vision and eye care. All serve for different conditions. A must have app if you happen to use your phone in low light.

Stop Log ☆Root☆

A super simple and very basic app that lets you improve the performance of your phone by disabling various logs that Android runs all the time in the background. The app disables the Main log, Radio log, System log and Event log. Also, by disabling logs you safeguard yourself from any sensitive data leaks from your phone.

Who said note taking apps has to be plain boring and ugly? 5Ways is here for you! It is an amazingly beautiful note taking (sharing too) app with a neat user interface and simple features. The app lets you share beautiful picture notes and text notes to other 5ways users.

Wakie

This is by far one of the best way to wake up I have found! You can now wake up by a phone call from a stranger, everyday! Another Wakie user will call you for 60 seconds at the morning. Don’t worry, the call will be through the app and your details won’t be shared.

The app is only available in select locations.

I’m in love with this one! Pixel battery saver is a boon for AMOLED screens. It works by adding a mesh layer of black dots over your phone’s display (look at the above picture). These black dots means the pixels in these dots are turned OFF by the display, there by reducing the power consumption of the display. It may make your display weird, but it will come in handy at times when you’ve to use your phone but are low on battery.

Narrate is a note taking app with the new material design UI from Android L. It has a pretty good user experience with all the new material design elements and some nifty features. It also has a pass code lock so that your notes are kept safe. The app integrates with Google Now’s Note to self functionality for taking notes by voice. Also, on the Pro version, you can get Dropbox sync, in addition to many other features.

Passwords are one of the most important things on the web now.Twik is a password manager app with a lot more features than a basic password manager. Generally, a password manager generates random passwords for different websites and saves it, no need to memorize or write down these random passwords. But, Twik works differently, you have to provide the private key which is stored in your device, this acts like a master key. Every time Twik generates a random password for a website, you’ll have to enter the master key. Simple!

SelfiKon – free emoji, sticker

With SelfiKon, you can make your own stickers. That’s right, your own personalized stickers. All you have to do is to search and download the pictures from google images and edit it. It can be shared with any messenger app. The coolest thing about this app is that, you can view and download the stickers made by other users too!

Pocket Lock

Pocket Lock can lock and unlock your device automatically. It keeps your phone locked when it is in your pocket and unlocks the phone when you take it out of your pocket. It can also be useful if you have a broken power button. The app uses the gravity sensor and the proximity sensor to automagically lock and unlock your device.

This app brings Facebook messenger’s chat head feature to the WhatsApp messenger! Yes that’s right. It shows new messages in a Chat head style bubble, which when clicked opens the conversation in whatsapp.

Instalicious lets you upload videos optimised for instagram square. The app contains many options for editing and many fancy effects to make your video awesome! It is very simple to use, and have a very beautiful UI. It can also store the video to SD card.

With Location Saver, you can save your locations and places and forget about remembering places in your maps. You can even save and search with your name, number, address and picture. Also, you can share the contact and even search for contacts.
