Insta3D

Insta3D by Speed 3D allows you to turn selfies into animated cartoon avatars of yourself, so if you’ve ever wanted to have a cartoony avatar, this free app is what you’re looking for. While this isn’t the first avatar creator for the iOS and Android, there are features here worth checking out.

Krita

Krita is an image editing application, but before you dismiss this as just another GIMP knockoff, it isn’t. While it has all the basic tools you’d expect, it also comes with several features that make image manipulation and photo editing easier such as multiple masks per layer, color history, clone layers and more.

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.

Google Slides

Google Slides is a free productivity app from Google that allows you to edit and create Google Presentations and share them with your co-workers. It’s also compatible with Power Point so you can open and edit and save PPT files, and apart from offering several editing tools, you can even use this offline.

Photo Private & Lock

Photo Private Lock from Metro 8 has a pretty descriptive name, because that’s exactly what it does, keep your personal photos and videos private. These days we use Widows Mobile as much for work as for personal matters and entertainment, and to prevent people from accidentally seeing your personal stuff, you can use this app to hide them.

Autodesk SketchBook Free Edition

Autodesk Sketchbook Free Edition was developed expressly for mobile, and while the company is best known for their 3D software this 2D drawing app is well designed. There’s a single in-app purchase option to access some features, but the free edition should be sufficient for casual doodling and sketching.
