The 16 best free Android apps every user should have in 2014!

Days left widget

Gentle Alarm is a superb app, great for people like myself who aren't awaken by a regular alarm. The alarm starts of quiet with an extremely annoying high pitch repetitive sound and slowly gets louder, until you wake up! Another feature which helps me wake up is the fact you have to answer three math equations, which you can choose the difficulty of, in order for the alarm to stop.

2048 Number puzzle game is a fun little game. You swipe to move the tiles on the beard and when two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one. Your goal is to reach 2048!

Flightradar24 allows you to see airplane traffic from all over the world in real-time! It's super neat for when you're waiting for someone to arrive but they're on the plane and you can track them!

Days Left Widget allows you to add cool widgets telling you the days left until an event of your choice. You can choose a number of colours, icons and sizes — so cute.

Clean Master app

Split Camera is great for Instagram addicts! It allows you to take two pictures, then puts them together in one square frame. You can change which image is bigger, as well as where it fades.

Draw Line: Classic is a simple, yet VERY effective and fun game. All you have to do is match the coloured dots together, which may seem easy at first but after 10 minutes your mind will be boggled!

Super-Bright LED Torch is an app which allows you to use your phone flash as a torch. It's simple really.

Clean Master defines itself as an optimizer and security app. It not only scans your phone for viruses in just eight seconds, but frees up RAM and deletes cache files to improve SD card performance.

TVCatchup allows you to watch live TV from anywhere you have internet connection!

uTorrent mobile app

Audible is an audiobook app which allows you to collect a library of audiobooks which you can listen to at any time, including a fully featured player.

uTorrent — it's 2014, of course you can torrent from your phone.

GoKeyboard allows you to have Emoji's on any Android phone (rather than just the latest ones).

Voltage Control (root required) allows you to overclock your phone for maximum performance (on some devices), and underclock for maximum battery!

Screencast (root required) is a unique app which allows you to record your devices screen. Great for video sharing and Youtube tutorials.

PVSTAR+ not only allows you to watch Youtube videos, but allows them to play in the background. Anybody who has tried to play music on Youtube on their photo will know how frustrating it is when the music stops when the app is in the background!

FlashFox enables flash on your device. It's not perfect, but it's great for those occasional moment it would be handy to have a flash browser!
