Spinrilla

Spinrilla is called the 800 pound gorilla of free mixtapes, and that’s exactly what it is. There may be other apps designed like this on the iOS, but in terms of features and content there’s nothing like it. Though the app doesn’t have a lot of fancy features, it’s more than capable, and it’s easy to use.

Courtesy of Twitter Inc., Periscope makes it easy to transmit video in bite sized sessions, and you can even save them on replay for later viewing. Everything from live events to friends engaged in fun activities can be streamed here, taking social interaction to another level.

Insta3D

Subtitle Edit

If you watch a lot of movies you’ll notice that in many cases the subtitles are not in sync or just completely wrong. In that case you might want to use a program like Subtitle Edit, an open source application that does exactly that, edit and correct movie subtitles.

GoPro

GoPro app is the official app for the GoPro camera, courtesy of Woodman Labs, and it’s definitely a must. With this you get more from your camera using either the iOS, Android or Windows Phone.

Rain Sounds HQ

Rain Sounds HQ is an app that, as the name makes clear, contains high quality rain sounds which can be used for relaxation.

If you used to have one of these on CD, now you can get one on your iOS app courtesy of Phase4 Mobile.

FaceQ

FaceQ is an avatar creator for the IOS and Android. Rather than just use emoticons to express how you feel, you can create a custom avatar that shows what you’re doing and how you’re feeling as well. Aside from being free, the avatars you can create here are more detailed than regular smileys. The app was developed by Erick Kuo and Mantan Studios.
