what's going on guys that your average consumer and today we're gonna be taking a look at what's on my android phone in 2018 and if you saw last year's version then you've got a good idea of the layout I like to use but I'm gonna show you how I change things up this year right here I've got the huawei mate 10 Pro and huge shout-outs wallet for sponsoring today's video but if you haven't checked out my video on the May 10 Pro it's a solid phone worth checking out with amazing battery life great performance and a few tricks up its sleeve if you want to learn more and catch that video I'll have a few links down below in the description but on to the apps and layout that I've been using on Android this year first up on the home screen you'll notice my live wallpaper and honestly guys I used to use this way back in the day like when live wallpapers just got to Android and this one is called Galaxy pack it has a few different preset live wallpaper themes and they all look great come in a variety of colors and have some nice motion effects and like I said these wallpapers have been around forever but they still really good on 20:18 flagships there are free versions with separate galaxy themes but if you want the entire pack it'll cost you just 2 bucks now in terms of my layout I'm using Wally's main date and time widget which is actually pretty clean it gives me the timing whether very simple stuff is accessible and absolutely necessary now on the bottom is where you find more of my standard stuff like my Google search bar widget my phone and messages apps as well as my browser and camera all essentials that I want quick access to at all times I've also making sure I have access to the Play Store for whenever I want to download a new app as well as a folder that has all the Google apps that I use on a daily basis I'm talking Gmail Google Maps Google Play Music YouTube you get the picture now of course to the left of that we've got the Google now section that gives me updates on all of my interests like basketball tech and even gaming in headphones if you haven't really taken the time to let Google now know the kind of things that you're interested in you probably should there's a lot of great articles and information in there and let's face it Google probably knows already now to the right of my home screen is where I have my secondary but very important apps at the very top you guys have seen this before this is my YouTube life section where I have a lie sub count widget doesn't know how many of you folks join the UAC fan and so the right of that is RAB my studio app right jump into the comments section to talk to you guys as well as check out the analytics to my videos I've got that YouTube app and the subscriber count app where that widget originates from and the socialblade app that lets me keep an eye on how the channel is performing every day some days are better than others put underneath that I've got the calendar widget called calendar widget but with this I can see the items on my calendar right at a glance right on the home page I love the transparent look since it keeps the homepage looking nice and clean but of course under that you guys know I like to keep all of my apps in nice clean folders and I've got a few right here of course I got my games right now I've been spending way too much time playing this game called hyper heroes they called this marble-like RPG where you can power up heroes and send them dashing towards opposing enemies and honestly if you're one of those people who just like to see their characters progress and grow in strength this is a very fun game and it's super addicting and of course you guys have seen me talk about this a lot in my real day-in-the-life videos sonic forces now I'm a big Sonic fan so this game is an absolute must for me and it's just downright fun once you get the hang of it and you know I have to get pop G mobile on here and I'm not gonna say I play this a ton I played it a few times and I can see why everyone's going crazy for it I do wish for it and I was on Android but you know it's obviously coming but right now pub G mobile it's pretty solid and I've even got some of my older games like Pokemon go which I really don't ever play anymore but I can't bring myself to delete it I got asphalt 8 which is a racing game I feel like I've got to have at least one racing game on all of my phones at all times just for when I'm like stupid bored so I got asphalt 8 here which is a classic for me now next up is my entertainment folder where I catch all of my latest shows mainly consisting of anime so I've got Netflix where I'm watching the Apocrypha as well as the latest episodes of Voltron must-watch shows trust me as well as the typical stuff that I watch over dinner with Airi but then I've got the more hardcore anime apps like crunchyroll and Funimation and I can't not have Hulu I highly recommend watching my hero cata Mia it's on Hulu I believe crunchyroll as well it's probably all over the place definitely watch that and double Oh Gundam definitely watch that one I've also got Amazon Prime video but you don't typically hear much about but there are some nice gems over there and I've got all the standard social media apps in this folder over here I'm pretty much on everything if you're not following me on Instagram or Twitter or anything like that I've got links to all of my accounts down below in the description hit me up and next up I've got my music folder now I've always been a hardcore Google Play Music list in there but I started to try out Apple music once it came out and now even though I am super super late I recently got on Spotify and I'm really starting to see the benefit of being on Spotify for discovering new artists and kinds of music that I haven't been listening to before it is amazing I understand why everyone's on it now my last folder is kind of like a miscellaneous folder but I've still got some very important apps in here I'm checking over important but besides the regular uber app I've also got a bird eats which me and Ari have been using way way too frequently you guys know us we don't cook it's terrible but it is so so convenient I've also got Microsoft OneNote which is hands-down my favorite note app I love it because you can use it on pretty much any platform no matter what device I'm using it's one of the first apps I make sure it's on there so whether that's an iPhone or an Android device or even just a regular Windows desktop my macbook being able to access my notes of my scripts on any OS is just amazing so I love it for that reason I've also got some pretty cool apps like Adobe Lightroom which is where I edit all of my photos before I upload them to ig or Twitter it's an easy to use app that allows for some great control to really bring your photos to life there's also this other really cool app that I definitely recommend called know in now this is a pretty cool app if you want to add a reminder or a note of any sort to your notification bar it's really simple you just type up your message and it stays in your notification bar until you send it away it's great if you want to have this constant reminder for something or if you want to just write a nice little positive message to yourself it's really simple but it's really cool to have and while I don't have it in a folder one app that I really do reckon and is G Boyd I love it because it's nice and easy to type on it has swipe functionality so I know a lot of people are familiar with that I also like the ability to Google search something right from the keyboard so if you're in your messages you can quickly send somebody a link to something you got access to your emojis your gifs all kinds of great stuff I use this thing on all of my Android devices as well as iOS so this is my main keyboard for almost every smartphone that I use now this is pretty much my layout and all of the new and old apps that I've been using this year I'm always interested in hearing cool new apps so if you guys have some nice recommendations let me know down below hopefully you guys enjoyed it if you did be the cool guy oh that gives this video a thumbs up and I'll catch you guys in the next one till then it's your average consumer base
