services it's also the software that's featured on the Prive and the D Tech 50 there isn't much to the application when you first open it because most of what it does is kind of in the background you'll also find links there to download the rest of the BlackBerry apps which all work with hub plus along with its primary security features it also features android for work compatibility and a news link to show you what's new in the world of blackberry it's free to try out if you're interested google duo came out to mixed reactions but it's actually a pretty decent app it allows you to make one-on-one video calls with other people there's a feature called knock knock that allows you to see who's calling you and their video feed before you pick it up which is kind of nice perhaps it's best feature is how easy it is to use you don't have to sign up for an account or anything special all you have to do is verify your phone number once and you can immediately start making video calls with other people who use duo it's also completely free isotope is an educational application that shows you the periodic table of elements it features 118 elements in total and most of them have

free and pay for the pro version as an in-app purchase the pro version comes with additional information about each elements along with some extra themes Microsoft Flo is a new application that aims to compete with the likes of IFTTT for those who don't know IFTTT and apps like it allow you to schedule tasks on your device that are carried out automatically for instance you can have your phone uploading photo to dropbox automatically after you share it on Instagram Flo is currently in public beta which means you can try it out right now if you want to just beware that there are bugs and other issues that haven't been worked out just yet IFTTT is still better but a little competition never hurt anyone one view calendar is a calendar application that does a lot of things a little bit differently instead of giving you a variety of ways to view your information one as the name implies has only one view it's in chronological order and you can open up the application to the current day you can then zoom in or out to get more details if you need it and scroll up or down to navigate the various dates it comes with some gesture controls and drag-and-drop functionality to create new events on your calendar it's surprisingly fun to use and it's completely free with no in-app purchases offer a free VPN is exactly what the name suggests it's a free VPN service that's run by surf easy which is a subsidiary of opera using the application is pretty simple you essentially just open up the app turn it on pick your region and then you go it also includes a feature that blocks ad tracking which can be switched on independently operas VPN isn't a full-featured VPN like some out there but it's not a bad package considering that it's free to use Prisma is a photofiltre application that's fairly unique compared to other apps it uses server-side neural networks to break down and rebuild a photograph from the ground up using whichever filter that you want there are well over a dozen filters that mimic a variety of styles which means that you should be able to find one that looks pretty awesome it's completely free and it has already spawned a host of clones that boast similar features this one is completely free and worth checking out traffic cam is a unique application that can help you catch sex traffickers the idea for this one is that you use it whenever you stay in a hotel you pop open the application take four images of the hotel room and then upload them to the database according to the apps developers many criminals use hotel rooms for photoshoots and having a database can help authorities find out where these people are it's a small thing it's completely unobtrusive and you really only need to take it with you when you're staying in a hotel keep it in mind and give it a shot it is completely free to use fern the Himalayas is a tour application that's designed to help you learn more about the Himalayan mountains it does this by placing you in control of Vern who is a Yeti as you traverse the terrain select parts will pop up and you can hear fun facts and various other trivia about the mountain you can also slide hang glide fly and move around in a variety of ways to get some excellent views of the mountains we definitely hope that Google does more of these because they're pretty fun Wolff ray is a new wallpaper application that specializes in high-res images unlike many we can find anything from 2k to 480p resolution most of the images in wall ray are massive crisp and they look great there are a variety of categories
