Top 5 Free Android Apps you should install on your new Smartphone

Did you just get a new Android Smartphone and you keep wandering around on Playstore and other App markets for good Applications to download, but you keep downloading only the boring and irrelevant Apps ? If that's the case then this post you're reading will help you choose the most important Apps which you really need on your Android phone.

As you already know, Android is the world's most popular mobile operating system and it has a gigantic ecosystem of Apps with nearly 1.5 million applications on the Google Play Store, leaving you with so many apps to choose from thus it’s hard to find the essential apps, the ones that truly enrich your experience in a meaningful way. So, in order to help you discover the very best Android Apps on Google Playstore. We've decided to release this awesome list. There is something you have to get right here, almost all Smartphones have some necessary Instant messaging and social networking apps pre-installed on them (e.g Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, Instagram, Pinterest etc). Even if not pre-installed, we've used our initiative to judge that you'll eventually install those messengers and social apps of your choice, so you won't be seeing any of them on this list. The Apps you'll see in this list will be the outstanding Apps in their own category. Here you go !

Nova Launcher

There are so many launchers on the Google Playstore, in fact, I've tried so many out myself but Nova launcher just proves to be the best in this category. If you're looking for a better interface for your phone just because you're getting bored of the usual display, you can give Nova launcher a try. It is really unique with its amazing set of features, regular updates, and smooth performance.

ES File explorer

While switching to a new phone, the first App I often download is a file manager because it makes copying, moving and transferring of files easier. ES File Explorer has established itself as the ultimate free and full-featured Application in this category because It has all the basic functions you'd expect to see in a file manager (copying and pasting, quick navigation between folders with a side panel, and so on) without annoying ads, and it works smoothly across various devices. Advanced users would also know that ES File Explorer comes with all the features of Root Explorer, meaning that once you grant ES File Explorer root permissions, you get to access apps at the system level and use drives in the cloud.

MX Player

Phone geeks often argue on which one is the best between MX player and VLC player for android. For real, they are both great ! But MX Player has an edge over other video players because it has been around for years yet it remains a great video player. MX Player is the most used in Apps that require the use of video players, an example is that of Sybla TV which makes use of MX Player as its required video player. Sybla TV is an android App which makes it possible to watch live football matches and programs on your Android Phone. Also, MX player's swipe-based interface is tailor-made for touch devices: swipe left and right to skip backwards and fast forward; swipe up or down (on the right half of a device) to adjust volume, and swipe up or down on the left half to adjust brightness.

Swift Key

Swift Key is an alternative swipe-based keyboard which makes typing faster on Android devices. The popularity of Swift Key has grown tremendously immediately the app was changed from paid to free. Swift Key allows you to customize your keyboard by choosing between tens of custom themes, but it is the speed of typing, as well as the rich language engine that recognizes your swipes and turns them into words that is the big highlight here.

Belle UI Icon Pack

Unlike iOS and Windows Phone, Android allows you to customize pretty much every aspect of the platform, and we love the option to change all the icons on our device. The latest update to the Belle UI icon pack brings a set of beautifully drawn icons with a distinct round style that stands apart from the stock icons. You'd definitely love this icon pack.
