Apps that help pass and save time
Make stickers with your selfie!
Bobble is an Indian app that combines two must-have technologies of the young-at-heart: selfies and stickers. It lets you snap your selfie, then turns it into a variety of stickers that you can share on messenger platforms like Whatsapp, Hangouts, Facebook, WeChat etc. It was recently integrated with iMessage for iPhone and iPad — the only app from India to be so featured.
Bobble's technology adjusts the expression on every face to match the emotion of the sticker. All text on stickers is customizable by users in any language. It is an interesting app to try if you are someone who prefers expressing with emojis rather than words.
Last week, Bobble added to its features by offering a series of stickers for users to place their own faces alongside the US Presidential candidates, coupled with popular one liners used by both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
You can download Bobble from Google Play
Track your time
TimeOut is an app dedicated to helping people track and manage their time. It encourages users to manage their time within limits they can set for themselves. One can choose to finish checking emails within 5 minutes or set a limit for browsing through Facebook. Timeout comes with a maximum setting time of 60 minutes and a default setting of 15 minutes. Once the 'TimeOut' notice pops up, you can choose to exit the activity or continue the activity for the same amount of time.
A special feature is the ‘time analysis’ feature which summarises your activities in a pie chart, on a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly basis. TimeOut is available in App Store or Google Play Store.
