Draw Something is an incredibly fun game along the lines of Pictionary. You are given a choice of words, from which you pick one. You then proceed to depict by crude drawings and funky colours what that word is on the player on the other end. This can turn out to be a lot of fun even if you don’t have an artistic side because the drawings are hilarious. The difficulty of the words to be described increases as you progress through the game.

Instagram is one of the most hyped photo apps for Android and iPhone. While it may not have as many filters as its competitors, it more than makes up for it with its robust social community. You might try other apps,but you always come back to Instagram. I did.

2. Pixlr-o-matic

“So many options to choose from, there are more than 5,000,000 possible finishes to make your photos look spectacular!”

That’s from the app store description. Over 5,000,000 possible finishes. I am sold. In case you aren’t, Pixlr-o-matic probably allows the most amount of customization than any other app offers. And the best part? Its free.

 Productivity:

1. Dropbox:

Dropbox logo and website

Dropbox as you might know is a cloud storage service which can also be used for collaboration with users for business or home applications. It has a very user friendly interface and is available across a wide range of platforms, be it desktop or mobile. The only true competitor is Google drive which needs a lot of polish and has a long way to go even though it offers considerably more storage space.

2. Flipboard:

Flipboard logo

Flipboard is a news aggregrator which can also pull in information from linked social accounts and present it to you in a magazine like aesthetic format. One of the most important plus points of this app that is often underplayed is, instead of having apps for Google Plus,Twitter, Facebook and instagram, you can link those accounts to Flipboard and save a lot of phone memory. Not to mention I love the clean interface and the pleasing flipping action.

3. Quickoffice Pro:

Quickoffice pro for documents

While there are quite a few other office apps available,the reason we chose Quickoffice pro for this list is because it is available over a wide range of platforms. While almost every other office app can open and edit documents, quickoffice also has support for cloud storage services like Dropbox, Box.net and Sugarsync to name a few. Also they have recently been acquired by Google, so we can expect a few good changes in the long run.
