While Pencil Sketch Free is easy to use, it does lack some great features that its competitors have, and the final outcome leaves much to be desired.

The installation of Pencil Sketch Free takes only a few seconds and the program loads very quickly. The interface is very intuitive and well designed. Upon startup users are presented with the option of selecting an image from the gallery or taking a new photograph. When capturing a new photo, users will notice that the camera window does not have all the same features as the stock camera application. This is a huge … Read more

Adding text bubbles to a photograph usually involves an overly complicated editing program such as Adobe Photoshop, or at the very least, Paint. Thankfully, there are now a few applications that serve this specific function. Photo Talks is one of the better offerings on the market. It gives the user tons of options and allows them to customize pictures effectively.

Users will have no difficulties installing Photo Talks. It downloads quickly and is fairly light on the device's resources. The main screen opens very quickly and the program seems very stable. The user interface is well designed, featuring brightly … Read more

Picture IQ is challenging, thought provoking, and never-ending. Even though it's a basic puzzle game that features a format repeated often on the market, it still executes it very efficiently compared to its competitors.

Picture IQ installs and sets up incredibly fast. Within seconds, users will be playing the game with little or no instruction. The gameplay is very intuitive and the clean user interface adds to the usability. The four pictures that are displayed at the top half of the screen are clear and fairly easy to see. The images are not in the highest resolution and some … Read more

QR Code Reader is a basic application that allows the user to read QR codes and take action depending on the information stored in them. There are many good applications available that are capable of this function, but this one doesn't seem to be one of them.

Once QR Code Reader has been downloaded it opens quite sluggishly. On the Samsung Galaxy Nexus it took 15 seconds to open the application. For such a small application this delay seems unexplainable. The user interface features no controls. It simply displays a viewfinder window that must be lined up with the … Read more

Ringya solves all your contact management worries. This app manages contact lists with ease and organizes your life. It can actually add an entire list of contacts to your device by simply taking a picture of a document.

The installation of Ringya goes quite fast given that it's only about 5MB. The size of this application is surprising given all of its functions. After installation completes there is a lengthy registration, which includes both an e-mail and phone number verification. This process may seem a bit overboard, but it's necessary for the application to function properly. The user … Read more

Ruzzle Free features fast gameplay and includes integration with social networking platforms. This game is rather easy to play but was still challenging.

Ruzzle Free installs very quickly but does require registration to play the game. Users can register with one click via Facebook or they can enter their information, manually. If you take the route through Facebook, all your contacts will be added to the permission list. This game offers an easy-to-use interface. The main screen allows the user to start a new game, continue with old games, or view previous scores. When the user starts a new game … Read more

Skyfire Web Browser 5.0 is superior in look and feel to some Android browsers but does not provide any significant features not found in the built-in browser.

Following a quick installation the first impression of Skyfire Web Browser 5.0 is very good. Users will notice the modern layout and the social media menu at the bottom of the screen. The problems arise, however, once the user truly compares it to the default browser or uses it for a long period of time. It does have all the basic features such as a bookmark list, offline browsing, and multitouch … Read more

Smart RAM Booster increases the speed of Android devices through several functions. It can stop the functions of applications running in the background with a multifunction widget or through the applications' user interface. There is also a cache cleaner that seems to speed the device up.

Smart RAM Booster installs easily. The small size allows the app to download almost instantly and there are no advanced features or registration needed. The user interface is pretty basic but the advanced settings can be confusing. For users not familiar with this type of application, some of the options may need more thorough … Read more

EagleEyes(Lite+) lets you monitor your business remotely, but it's really limited in its reach. EagleEyes won't let you view cameras from any old manufacturer, but it's a decent app to have if you use a specific type of surveillance software.

EagleEyes only works with AVTech surveillance equipment, so look for another app if you don't use that. If you do use AVTech, this app gives you enough features and seamless operation in the free version. If you want full control, you'll need to pay $5 for the pro version. Either way, setup is easy. … Read more
