The indispensable applications for Windows Phone
Windows Phone smartphones are not yet the most popular on the market, but they are gradually steadily increasing their user base and the number of applications. If you just bought a phone with Windows Phone, you may be wondering what apps you need to have (and which ones you have access to). Stop thinking and searching, we have the answer. In .com we tell you what are the essential applications for Windows Phone .
Yes, if Facebook is essential in your life (and by now it sure is), you will need to take it on your phone. The Facebook app on Windows Phone works quite well and allows you to do the basic activities: update your status, comment or say "like" to other users, upload photos, say where you are, consult groups or pages, and even use the chat From Facebook.
The Twitter app is also one of the essential in Windows Phone: you can keep informed of what is happening, update your accounts (there may be several), receive notifications when replies are made or send messages, check hashtags. Basically, everything you can do on Twitter also from your computer.
Evernote
Evernote is one of those apps that you think you do not need until you use it for the first time: in addition to taking notes, it serves to save web pages, add voice notes or images. The most interesting thing about this app, which in Windows Phone also has a very attractive design, is that it is synchronized between devices: you can save a web on your phone and see it on your computer, record a voice note on your tablet and listen to it on the smartphone, etc.
We all know the problems that WhatsApp has, but also that while alternatives such as Line or WeChat do not become more popular, that is where our friends are. Fortunately, having an almost marginal mobile platform like Windows Phone does not mean you have to give it up. They are improving little by little (there are still problems with notifications), so update it whenever you can.
6tag
Did you think you had renounced Instagram? Of course not! While the official Instagram app for Windows Phone does not arrive (although they have already announced that it is being prepared), you can update your account and see what your friends do with 6tag, a client app that replicates the original Instagram quite faithfully. You will not notice the difference.
Skype
Skype has been owned by Microsoft for a while now, so they have worked hard to make their Windows Phone app the best one. The voIP service par excellence has a pretty Windows Phone app that works very well, with which you can chat and call your contacts, in addition to making video calls with the front camera.
Fuse
For those addicted to the present, Fuse is an RSS reader with a very elegant and functional design that will allow you to be always up-to-date. In addition to consulting your favorite blogs and websites from an interface whose design you can choose, you can group your different sources by theme.
AccuWeather
To be always informed of the time you are going to do, AccuWeather is one of the most reliable sources. You can set the app to always show you on the lock screen the temperature and a Bing image with the expected time. A prognosis always at hand!
QuickSettings
One of the apps that solve one of the Windows Phone problems. If there are aspects of the configuration of the phone that you use often (flight mode, bluetooth, flashlight), you would like to be able to activate and deactivate them directly from the home screen. This app makes it possible: it offers icons that you can anchor to the screen and use directly as switches.
TuneIn Radio
Although now you can finally listen to FM radio in Windows Phone 8, sometimes these stations are not enough. Do you want access to thousands of stations around the world? The TuneIN Radio app connects with them over the Internet and allows you to search for them by name, genre, language, location, artist or song.
