13 Best Android Apps 2013

1.Pocket(free)

                       Let’s say you find a long article on the web — something you need at least 10 minutes to read — but you’re at work or otherwise too busy to read it all right away. Just install the Pocket extension or bookmarklet in your browser, and you can save the story for your lunch break. Pocket’s Android app formats web pages in a clean, booklike view, and it stores content off-line so you can still catch up on reading in a dead zone



2.Flipboard(free)


                               Flipboard is like a personalized miniature magazine for Internet content. It takes stories from around the web and reformats them into little pages of text and images, so you can flip through by swiping up and down. You can also plug in your Twitter or Facebook profiles, and Flipboard will pull the links that people share into the mix — along with the occasional tweet or timeline post.


3.Mighty text(free)


                                 Want to make iPhone owners jealous? Tell them about how you can send and receive all your text messages right from your laptop or desktop web browser. To make it happen, install the MightyText app on your phone, thenset up the web app on your computer.


4.Pulse news(free)



                                           Pulse News is a great way to scan through the headlines and find the stories you want to read. Just pick the news sources you want — or use the built-in suggestions — and you’ll get a scrolling view of thumbnail images and story snippets. The app also has a widget, so you can glance at your favorite news sources from your phone’s home screen.

5.Stitcher radio(free)


                                      Why settle for one talk-radio source when you can choose from thousands? Stitcher brings together live stations, recorded talk-radio shows and podcasts from around the web into a single app and lets you create custom stations based on your favorites. Plus, it doesn’t get all weird around power lines the way AM radio does.

6.Fandango movies(free)

                                                         Fandango is one of a few apps for movie listings, trailers and ticket purchases, but its simple interface and clean design leave it a cut above the rest


7.Songkick concert(free)


                                                  Songkick helps you find concerts with minimal effort. The first time you open the app, it scans your music library, Google Play Music account and Last.fm account (if you have one), and then lists nearby shows for the bands in your catalog. You can also get alerts for new concerts and add a widget to the home screen to keep an eye on upcoming shows. It’s perfect for people who aspire to see more music but always forget to look things up.

8.Convertpad(free)


                                               ConvertPad isn’t the prettiest unit-conversion app around, but it’s free, and it’s loaded with pretty much everything, from weight and distance to energy flux and radiation absorbed dose. It does currency conversions as well and keeps itself up to date on exchange rates. You can also customize which categories you want to see, just in case viscosity and capacitance aren’t things you’ll be converting anytime soon.

9.Triply(free)



                                      With a little extra effort up front, TripIt spares you from digging for your travel details later. Just forward your flight, hotel, car rental and restaurant reservations to plans@tripit.com, and the app pulls them into separate itineraries. And if you use Gmail, Tripit gathers those details automatically.

10.Onavo extend(free) 


                         If you regularly run into overages or speed limits with your monthly data use, Onavo Extend can help out. The free app reroutes your mobile Internet traffic through its servers and compresses data when possible so you don’t use as much of it. (Here’s a tip, though: if you don’t want the app to pester you when it’s turned off, go into its settings and turn “Savings Alert” off.)


11.Shazam(free)



                                   You hear a song you like. You don’t know who plays it. You open Shazam and press the big button, and a few seconds later, the app tells you the title, the artist, the album and even the lyrics. It’s basically the embodiment of what mobile apps are all about.

12.GOOGLE KEEP(free)

                                                  Keep is a relatively new addition to Google’s stable of homemade apps, and it’s definitely worth checking out if you need a quick way to get your thoughts down. You can create notes with text, by voice (with automatic transcription), with photos or as a list, and they’ll show up in chronological order. Notes are automatically saved online, so you can access them on your computer’s web browser at drive.google.com/keep.

13.TeamViewer(free)


                                             TeamViewer is a free app for remotely accessing your PC over the Internet. The app can transfer files between devices and provide direct access to your desktop from anywhere, as long as you’ve installed the desktop software on the PC you’re trying to access. Keep it handy in case you forget a file or need to provide some remote tech support for a loved one.
