These apps let you do many more things with your smartphone than just connecting with people 24×7. As they say, sky is the limit and truly with thousands of apps being piled on websites every day, even sky might have to shift a little further.

Here is the small list of fun apps which you can download and use extensively for making the more out of your smartphone.

LOSE IT:

Have you ever made New Year resolution which concerned your weight? I bet some of you have gone through this. We decide to shed a few kilos in New Year and thus we follow diet strictly for first 5 or 6 days and then suddenly on one day, we fail prey for some McDonald or KFC!

If you are such a calorie freak but can’t reduce your weight, this app is specially designed for you. This handy app comes with a calorie tracker and thus can play a vital role in your diet routine. This app informs you every day whether you are doing the diet right or not and also tells you if your daily intake of calories is exceeding. In turn, this allows you to keep a check on your daily calories intake.

Any iPhone user (having iOS 3.0 and higher) can download this app provided that he has iTunes installed on it.

Drop Box:

Ran out of memory space? Can’t receive or download files as phone memory is already filled up? Here is the solution. With Drop Box you can access all your files regardless of your location. All you have to do is get this handy cloud storage based app for your smartphone and move your data on it.

However one thing that should be noted is that this app comes with subscription and thus you will have to renew it every month or so. If you do not wish to renew it, you will have to move your data to other place before the subscription period expires. You can download this app from Drop Box’ website.

Taazzago:

This app works like a local guide. It provides you all the locally useful information like new deals, places, news, weather forecast, classifieds and so on. After you download this app, all you have to do is feed your position as it is aimed at local information.

Once you do this, finding new restaurant or cinema theater is just a one click’s affair. The feature I found most impressive was its ability to provide locations on Google maps along with telephone numbers and addresses of the listings. The developers of this application have tie-ups with various e-commerce websites to provide you great deals. News, great deals, weather… well, you can save webpages using this app and view them later.

It is even available for Android now but under different name, “Localbeat”. You can download it for iPhone by visiting Apple’s App store while Android version is available on Google Play.

Google Goggles:

What purpose does your camera exactly serve? Now, you will say what kind of idiotic question is this! But I had to ask this question as this app will let you do more things than just taking random snaps.

Once you download this app, you can capture the snap and Google it straight away, pretty cool eh? This app comes really handy when you are standing next to some monument or you are in area you are unfamiliar with. And since Google has answers for all questions there are great chances that you will get the information about the area or monument you are standing next to. You can get this app by visiting Google Play.

First Aid:

This is another simple yet powerful app which can come really useful in emergency situations. When such medical emergency arises, immediate first aid treatment can save a life. This app is loaded with all the information that might be required in such situations with a small picture describing more about it.

It also lists out various symptoms and cautions that you might want to pay heed to. You can select the symptoms or situations and then get directions on situations so as what should be done! So what are you waiting for? Download this app right now!

Viber:

This app incorporates Voice Over IP protocol to let users make free calls over internet. That means you won’t be charged for phone calls, though as this app uses 3G service or Wi-Fi to make calls, data charges will be applied.

This app is available at Google Play and at Apple app store for free download. One thing that should be noted is that the other person must also have this app and the 3G or Wi-Fi service enabled. The app is available on Apple’s App Store for download and also on Google Play for Android Devices.

Drive Safely:

As the name itself suggests, this app is dedicated to safe driving and improving road safety. The app has text-to-speech feature which reads messages and emails out loud while you are driving. If you have any urgent message which requires immediate attention, you can reply to such message too, in the same way.

You can use the basic version (reads just 25 words from every message) or you can also opt for professional version by paying fee. Once the app completes reading, it informs the other party about your unavailability.  Android users can get this app from Google Play while BlackBerry users can head over to BlackBerry App World to download it.
