6 Apps You Should Not Miss for Your Smartphones or Tablets

It can be tough to keep up with all the new apps released every week. But in some blogs or sites, you could get recommendations.

These sites create a roundup each weekend of the favorite new and updated apps. You can get such app recommendations here. In this post, I would like to introduce 6 different apps that you should not miss for your Android or iOS smartphone or tablet. Take a look at the below content to know what these apps are.

Disney Infinity: Action!

Disney Infinity: Action! lets you create video clips starring your favorite characters from Disney’s upcoming Infinity console experience. The app uses augmented reality to bring the characters into your environment. Users get instant access to a clip in which Mr. Incredible appears to burst through the wall, and additional scenes — for a total of 30 — can be purchased within the app using coins earned from interacting with characters in the game portion of the app.

Plants vs. Zombies 2

Plants vs. Zombies 2: It’s About Time officially launched worldwide. The highly anticipated sequel to PopCaps’ insanely successful Plants vs. Zombies takes you on a quest to find Crazy Dave’s taco — you may remember Dave as the guy who kept selling you things from the trunk of his car. Since Dave ate the taco in the original version of the game, you have to travel back in time, through ancient Egypt, pirate times and the Wild West, to search for it.

Flipboard for iOS

Flipboard launched a new version of Flipboard for iOS recently. The newest version of the app adds support for GIFs, as well as a new Top Story function that helps to highlight top stories in news, business, tech and sports.

Dots for Android

Already a hit for iOS, Dots came to Android and Kindle Fire this week. Since its launch on iOS in May, the app has been downloaded more than 5 million times, and played more than 1 billion.

Yahoo Weather for Android

Yahoo’s beautiful weather app for iOS finally made its way to Android. The app incorporates images from Flickr into its weather forecast, showing you what a “cloudy day in New York” actually looks like. The app also includes 10-day and 24-hour temperature forecasts, interactive radar, satellite, heat and wind maps and animated sunrise and sunset times.

Gigwalk for Android

Gigwalk brought its mobile job service to Android this week. The app lets users pick up small jobs around their city that can often be completed on the phone itself. For instance, someone might be paid $5 to photograph a local business for a mapping company, or $10 to check the display of a particular product at their local grocery store.

5 ways to get music for free and legally on the internet from online video sharing sites and radio stations

With the improved attention on copyright protection, there’re a lot of laws being actively discussed around the Web to define the legality of free music. The only problem now is what free and legal music is and what is not. Even though a consumer has purchased the commercial music album or tracks from Amazon or iTunes, he or she does not actually own the copyright, and therefore the track cannot be legally used as the background music for video or animation. Actually, whether the free music is legal or not is depending on its usage. It’s all about how you’re going to use that music – simply listen or gain profit on its distribution. If you just get these free music for listening, you could have a look at the following 5 methods to get music for free and legally.

Video sharing websites

There are a lot of video sharing sites such as YouTube, Vevo, and MTV Music that get branded channels where singers and bands release their music videos and audio videos. You have the chance to find and listen to almost any audio track, add it to your playlists and share with friends. But you have to play videos in order to listen to music.

Music streaming services

There are numerous online services which transmit music on demand from the Internet. The most popular of them are Last.fm, Pandora, Grooveshark, Spotify, Rdio and Dezeer.

The best part is that these websites are accessible from almost any PC, Mac, or mobile device.

The services have agreements with major record labels and thus provide legal access to music. All services have free membership option (usually ad-supported and with limited features). Still to get most, you have to buy a subscription.

Unfortunately, geo-restrictions (often set by record companies) make most music streaming services useless for third world countries. This fact gives rise to local Internet radios like In.com.

Music streaming software

Various music streaming software are available for you to choose from for getting music for free, just like Leawo’s Music Recorder, which lets you easily record any sound from either internal or external audio sources of  your computer.  This music recording software could allow users get music for free from online video sharing sites like YouTube and Facebook, and FM radio stations just like AOL Music and Last.fm. No download functionality, so the software is absolutely legal.

Music archives

Amazon has a section of free music downloads. iTunes throws out a couple of free songs every week, encouraging listeners to discover new music. Fan communities such as Etree and OverclockedRemix give access to free music tracks, live concerts, and remixes on a non-commercial basis.

AudioJungle offers royalty-free tracks free or under $1.

Archives like Jamendo distribute free and legal music under a CreativeCommons license, meaning that the music can be freely listened to, used, and redistributed under the same license.

Music blogs

Music blogs are also a good source of free legal music. Usually, such blogs are used by newborn bands and artists for self-promotion. In fact, there is a great number of such blogs, each of them focused on a specific audience and offering different kind of music – from indie-rock to the avant-garde. The examples of such blogs are ObscureSound, Spinner, Elbows, HypeMachine, etc.  If it’s not always free to download music from these blogs, you may play songs on them with no limitations.
