Technology & News: Free Apps To Recommend Part 6


Time for another round of great apps recommendation. This time, all apps are produced by XDA-developers themselves.

One of the coolest apps is Panoramic Screen by XDA Senior Member exisapps. This totally awesome app allows you to turn any 2D images into 3D panoramic live wallpapers. It offers a wide range of customisations for you to fit the particular 2D image of your choice. Check out the video below and you'll know what this app can do.


If you are a fan of Facebook but you find that the original Facebook app lack functionalities and speed which you want, then you can give this Atrium for an Alternate Facebook Experience a go. Developed by XDA Forum Member radiantbits, Atrium for an Alternate Facebook Experience

If you are looking for more than just controlling Facebook, you can try Social Network OverView for Facebook, Twitter,Google+, Instagram, RSS-Feeds, developed by XDA Senior Member MOST2K2. It does make communications easier, though it will be at the expense of viewing less graphics.

If you are looking for a floating video app, then Popcorn Player by XDA Forum Member twondcc is one of the best out there.

It is similar to the Super Video, Floating & Popup I have recommended in Technology: Turning your Galaxy S2 to Galaxy S2.5!!! but better than it in the sense you can download YouTube videos with it!

Last but not least, XDA Forum Member PariDevelopers created an app called GeoTask which serves as a location-based task list. All you have to do is to add your tasks like all other To-Do apps, then add the location of the venues at which your tasks have to be accomplished, and then the app will remind you when you are within the alert range of the venues.

With this app, you will not forget to handle your tasks and only remember it when you get home. Excellent app for absent-minded people like me.

Have a great weekend and have a blast with these cool apps!
