Every year there is one or more apps that everyone is talking about. Every year, the most downloaded apps also talk about global trends and fashions.
Photo retouching, online payments, healthy eating… There is something for everyone. If you want to know which the best android or iPhone apps were, here is our selection.
The best apps of 2019
If we look at the ranking of the most downloaded applications of the year 2019 according to the page, you will not be surprised. What Sapp, Messenger, Facebook, Instagram or YouTube are still among the most downloaded applications, even if they are no longer relevant.
FaceApp
This was without a doubt one of the revolutions of the year, although not a new launch. This photo editing application uses a neural system based on artificial intelligence which analyzes the photo uploaded by the user to apply the desired retouching: change of sex, age, rejuvenation, and improvement of the smile … Many options are available.
However, the request was not without controversy. The fact that its servers are in Russia and the footage is stored has led to the emergence of almost as many fans as critics of the app, in a year when users are starting to be more aware of privacy issues.
TikTok
Used to images with filters, the latest big trend is a social video network that focuses on naturalness, creativity and humor . TikTok is a social network of Chinese origin, but in 2019 it was one of the most used around the world. These days, this app has just reached one billion active users, although it did so in less time than other apps like Facebook, Twitter or WhatsApp.
Users share short videos up to 60 seconds long, in which they create sketches, recreate memes, perform viral challenges, or show off their talents as dancers or artists in general.
The app is so successful that Instagram is already following it closely and is testing some of its features to integrate them into Stories.
Likee
… Born after the success of ‘TikTok’, the ‘Likee’ app is another of the most downloaded apps of the year. The concept is similar, short videos in which users seek to interact with their audience through viral challenges, humor, and cooking or makeup tutorials
However, Likee has a lot more options for customizing videos with filters, emojis, or stickers. This application also facilitates the editing of videos thanks to options which, otherwise, would be reserved for more professional software: special effects, video duets with friends, animation of photos or dubbing of film scenes…
SHAREit
While this might not yet be one of the more well-known apps, it is definitely one of the most useful you can install. Especially if you regularly use your smartphone for work.
This is one of the tools that allow you to transfer files between devices without using mobile data. Moreover, as its creators explain, it is around 200 times faster than Bluetooth and allows you to transfer any type of file.
Moreover, it incorporates an encryption tool to help you protect your privacy in photos and videos. If you haven’t tried it yet, install it now. It’ll get you out of trouble when data is scarce.
Yuka
Eating better and knowing what the healthiest foods are is a growing interest. In this context, several applications have appeared with the aim of helping to detect which products you should leave on the shelf and which ones are best to fill your shopping cart.
Yuka is one of the best known apps of this type. Scanning a food or cosmetic product gives us information about its composition, which helps us better understand its label.
Thus, it classifies foods according to a color code: from excellent too bad. The function is similar for cosmetic products, where it analyzes their composition and the use of components that could be harmful.
Ivoox
2019 was certainly the year of the podcast’s emergence. There are shows on every topic you can think of that will serve as entertainment, information, or training. Ivoox is one of the best-known podcast and app hosting portals in our country.
