The number of apps that are available on the internet is ridiculously huge- in fact, it is surprisingly easy to believe that there are applications for just about everything! With so many options available, however, it may be a little difficult to decide which Android apps you should download and eventually use!

Below you can see a list of six Android apps, which, even though they are not the kind of apps that are used on a daily basis, they can be very useful the moment you decide to use them! It depends on the situation... everything is relative!

So, let's see the list of those six really interesting Android apps:

1. Tunity

Suppose you are in an area with a lot of fuss and want to watch TV in peace, however you can’t listen to it. It has probably occurred to all of us at least once, right? Well, with this app, you can listen to the TV’s sound via your device! It has the ability to scan the TV and identify what that the current channel is showing- then, the sound begins playing from your phone.

2. Photomath

This app is claimed to be the most intuitive calculator in the world. Would you believe it? The application, by using the device’s camera, can record math problems and guide you step by step in order to reach their solution. If you are having difficulty solving a math problem, you can take a look at it and let us know whether it worked for you or not! Note that it is not aimed at those who want to use it during exams.

3. RunPee

Its name is funny indeed, but it is absolutely accurate, since it suggests what it does, and we’ll explain you instantly! Suppose that you are watching a movie on your couch, with a beer or a soft drink, and feel the need to visit the bathroom. This has happened more than once for sure! So, this app will let you know what is the best time to pause the movie and visit the bathroom! It’s definitely a must-have app if you visit the bathroom often while watching movies.

4. Pushbullet

Controlling your phone’s notifications while working can be a quite difficult task! This application solves your hands as it can redirect notifications from your phone to other devices. You can also forward links and files from your phone to your desktop. And the best thing is, there is full SMS support so that you can view entire conversations from your computer! Isn’t that cool or what?

*Note: Pushbullet is also available as an extension for Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Opera, as well as as an application for Windows. You can get it here.

5. Listen on Repeat

Just by reading its name you will probably understand what this is about. But we’ll explain it anyways: There are several reasons why this app is great. Not only it will let you listen repeatedly to your favorite YouTube videos (without having to do it manually of course!), but it will also allow you to turn off the screen while listening, which is a big plus since normally YouTube videos pause if the screen is turned off. Subsequently, it will also help you save your battery’s life.

6. Twilight

No, not the movie! It’s about your sleep... If you have trouble sleeping at night due to your phone, then give it a try! According to the app’s developers, exposure to blue light before bedtime can disrupt the cycle of your sleep. The application therefore helps reduce the blue light emitted from the device. The best thing about it is that it can identify the time zone you’re located in, and can adjust itself automatically.

*Note: This app is only available for Android devices. If you are using an iOS device, then you have two choices: either upgrade to iOS 9, which includes a Night Shade option that does the same as Twilight (to enable Night Shade on iOS 9, go to iOS Settings, and find the option under the Display & Brightness menu), or alternatively, use f.lux, which requires jailbreak.
