New apps and games for Android: the best of February

Applications

Noterly

There are a huge number of applications with reminders: note organizers, task managers, and calendars with attachments of appointments and files… But if all these systems are too complicated for you, try Noterly.

In the program, you just need to specify an event, set the time, as well as the repeat interval, if necessary, and at the right time it will send a notification. No accounts, links and registrations. You can also add a description or color to the reminder, but this is optional.

Heark

Have you ever transcribed long interviews or lectures by hand? Pleasure is something else. Fortunately, there are several servicesthat allow you to do this automatically.

Their list will now be replenished by Heark. This app lets you transcribe lectures, event recordings, podcasts, interviews, whatever. It recognizes many languages ​​and does so quite accurately.

You can use the program for free for a week. Then you have to pay for a subscription, which will open access to an unlimited cloud to store your audio files.

Geekbench 6

Owners of gaming computers love to run various test applications to test the capabilities of their hardware. There is even a joke that some build PCs to play benchmarks.

Geekbench 6, a new version of the popular application for testing the processor and memory of mobile devices, will boast of the coolness of the smartphone. With the help of the program, you can not only determine how many "parrots" your gadget is gaining, but also measure the results with other users.

In addition, Geekbench 6 will come in handy to find out if your smartphone has the performance declared by the vendor. A useful thing if you buy products from little-known sellers from AliExpress.

FilterBox

If too much comes to the smartphone notifications, FilterBox will help solve this problem. The program lets you know how many alerts are coming in and which apps are distracting you the most so you can remove or disable the top troublemakers.

In addition, with its help you can see the history of notifications, which can be useful if you accidentally swiped one of them and now you can’t remember if there was something important there.

Memory Note

A note-taking app that lets you take notes and then randomly reminds you of them from time to time. This is useful if you need to memorize something or keep an interesting idea in mind.

You can add a new English word or rules to the program growing carrots, or a quote that inspires you. After a few days or weeks, Memori Note will remind you of this note - and you will immediately restore its contents to memory. If you receive such notifications from time to time, you will surely remember the information.

planta

Quite an interesting application that will come in handy for lovers of room greens. Add a room and light level to the program, as well as plant names, and Planta will tell you what to do to make these pets feel better.

Also, the application can notify you when it's time to water, fertilize and replant plants. It also has a premium version that can recognize flowers according to the photo, but even without it, Planta is quite usable.

Picso

This application uses artificial intelligence and can either turn your selfie into an anime avatar or create a portrait from an English text description.

The quality of the drawing depends on whether the neural network understands you - so we advise you to write detailed and precise requests if you do not want to get a standard cartoon girl with disproportionate breasts in a bikini.

Without a subscription, you can create three pictures per day. You will have to pay for more.

Games

Sackboy Ultimate

Pretty good runner with nice cartoon graphics in the spirit of Ryn Mario Run. The plot is simple: you run in a three-dimensional world along an endless road, trying to beat the previous record. Locations and characters are bright and varied. A great way to kill time while sitting on the bus.

White Out Survival

famous laurels Frostpunk still do not give rest to mobile developers, and they rolled out another survival simulator in the snow - I must say, pretty good.

Unlike the harsh realistic progenitor, White Out Survival has cartoonish graphics. But the dangers are still the same: severe blizzards, hunger and constantly decreasing fuel. Additional problems are sometimes created by bandits and wild animals wandering into your town.

Checker Clash

Good old checkers that can be played both against artificial intelligence and against a live opponent online. There are several variations of the rules, as well as the choice of a large or small board. Players can earn rewards and points to face opponents of their own level on the battlefield, rather than green beginners.
