People nowadays are just aware of the apps that are shown to them. The apps that gain hype due to good marketing are the ones people tend to use the most. But do you agree with me that there are thousands and lakhs of apps that are unknown( Or say rarely known…) to the world. Here I will mention a few with you all and I guarantee every single of you will definitely use or love at least one of these.

Note: Some apps are available in Play Store/ Appstore while others are the APKs.

1. Todoist

Todoist is a to-do list, task manager, calendar, planner, and reminder app that makes you feel good. It comes with a great set of features to help you plan and organize your projects and goals.

A to-do list is a valuable part of being a productive person. Todoist is an app that takes the standard to-do list and adds a bunch more functionality to it. Not only can you keep track of what needs to be done, but you can also set reminders, access your calendar, and keep track of all tasks. It’s a powerful productivity app.

2. Dolby on

Dolby On is a free iOS and Android application designed to make recording and live streaming sound and video with unparalleled audio quality incredibly simple, using nothing but your device.

3. Sleep Timer (Music & Screen Off)

Sleep Timer is a sleep timer for your screen in general, and music in particular. The app lets you set a timer and when the timer expires, it will sleep the device and turn off any music that is playing. Putting the device to sleep means that perhaps you fell asleep using an app that keeps your device awake but if a timer is enabled, it will sleep your device and save precious battery. The best part is this app will turn off WIFI or Bluetooth as needed and ends up saving a lot of battery consumption.

4. Spotiflyer

If you are someone who loves keeping songs offline on their phone then this app is definitely for you. With the help of this app, you can download songs on your Android device and play them with any offline music player. The app allows you to download music from Spotify and YouTube music for free. You can even download YouTube videos in this app. All the music you download has very high quality and also has album art. Now we have also added Spotiflyer for Windows & Spotiflyer for Mac.

5. Floating Notes

Quickly create sticky notes that keep visible while using other apps. Write down all you need to remind and have it on hand whenever you need it. Easy to use and simple. This app is useful especially nowadays in online classes and whose phone doesn't have a split-screen feature.

· Dock notes to the edge of the screen as little icons.

· Lots of icons and colors to your notes

· Set notes transparency

· Access notes also from inside the app

· Turn visibility on or off for watching movies or playing games

6. YouTube™ Vanced

YouTube Vanced is the best Modded YouTube App than any official YouTube version you used before.

If you don’t have a YouTube Premium membership, you have to suffer the YouTube ads. The most horrible thing is that few advertisements were shown in a short video. Also, it does not support background playback, download video offline use. Of course, YouTube Vanced can solve these problems.

Simply download the Vanced manager and download the required app.

NOTE: Installing MicroG is also necessary for logging in with your Gmail account (Don't worry you will find the same in the Vanced manager).

7. TeraBox- Cloud drive, Extra storage space & Backup

Most competitive services don’t offer a massive amount of storage(Generally, 10–20 GB is provided). If it’s free, and there’s something they want you to buy, it’s clear you won’t get the best of the best at no cost.

What makes TeraBox unique is that it provides a whopping 1 TB (1024 GB) for free. You can share files with an automatic expiration date and even require a password before the recipient can download them.

Files can be uploaded individually or in bulk via folder uploads. Everything is automatically organized into sections to make it easy to find pictures, videos, music, etc.
