New Android Apps and Games: The Best of September

1. Schedule Mate

This program will help you increase your productivity. Its meaning is to visualize tasks so that they are always in front of your eyes and you can understand at a glance what kind of work will take you how much time. Create multiple categories such as Work, Household Responsibilities, Sports, and so on. And then add cases and indicate the deadlines for their completion. They will be displayed on a round color chart, clearly demonstrating which actions should be paid attention to first.

2. TallTaskk

If the previous pie chart app doesn't seem intuitive enough for you and you prefer the good old to-do list - try TallTaskk. The program is as simple as possible: add a task, set a deadline and get to work. In addition, it automatically sorts cases into three categories: Deadline, Deadline, Completed. No accounts and registrations.

3. Wit

It is a highly configurable interval timer. There are two presets in total, but that's okay, because you can create as many of your own workouts as you want. You can assign colors to them, set arbitrary periods of activity and rest, and share complexes with friends. And also integrate them with apps like Spotify, YouTube, Audible, and more to combine certain types of exercise with the right music. The program is free and no ads.

4. Privacy Dashboard

Android 12 introduces a new Privacy Dashboard feature that shows you when which app is accessing your camera, microphone, or geolocation. The presented program is an analogue of this privacy manager for earlier OS versions.

The app displays an icon at the edge of the smartphone screen when an app is tracking your location or records video and sound - you can quickly recall issued to applications permissions. Useful for those who do not want to follow it followed. The Privacy Dashboard itself does not spy on users and is open source.

5. Swop.it

Let's say you bought something and realized that you don't need it. Instead of leaving a purchase to gather dust in a closet, you can give it to someone and get something more useful with Swop.it.

This program allows you to swap things with other users. You create an ad in which you indicate what you are going to give and what thing you would like to ask for in return. Then you go through the options, negotiate with the owners of the items that suit you, and in the end everyone gets what they want. No purchases - just barter.

6. Audio Editor Pro

Free but quite functional audio editing application. In it, you can trim audio files, change their volume, convert them to other formats and add various effects. The interface is simple and intuitive. Of course, Audacity falls short of the desktop version, but if you need to do something with the sound literally on your knees, this program will do just fine.

7. AceScreen

AceScreen allows you to prevent your smartphone screen from turning off on its own. The program detects when you are holding the gadget in your hand and does not allow it to deactivate the display backlight. Or tracks movement in space - you can attach your smartphone to the handle bike and use it on the go without having to touch the screen periodically. Quite a useful thing.

8. Barquode

A program for working with a wide variety of barcodes and QR. It allows you to scan, decrypt, save graphic combinations. And also - create your own codes. Barquode has a nice interface and a lot of customization options.

9. Camo

The application is able to turn your old smartphone into a webcam. Install the program on a computer, synchronize with the client on a mobile device - and you can communicate with friends in Zoom, Skype and other services. The only problem is that the smartphone cannot be attached to the monitor like a regular webcam. But this problem can be easily solved with an inexpensive stand.

10. Mr. Rumble

Stealth action game in which you play as a robber trying to steal diamonds from guarded premises. You are confronted by cops who need to be carefully avoided, deceived, distracted or lured into traps. Many events here happen completely by accident, so you will definitely not get bored. V the game funny cartoon graphics and simple controls.
