AppWatch Review
These four apps optimized for Android tablets powered by Intel® Atom™ processors apps can capture special holiday moments or enable ways to enjoy some quality time with those who can’t visit in person.
When everyone comes together it’s important to capture the warmth of celebration so we can remember it. The developers at Venticake created Retrica, a visually stunning photo app with preset filters like Vignette and Vintage. These unique effects really give family shots a magical quality and tell the story of that moment.
If you really want to add some high comedy to that moment, PhotoWarp by Tonuzaba Entertainment, is a hilarious way to play with and exaggerate your physical features on your photos. You can create wacky family portraits using the bloat, pinch, and twirl tools. And then share your new masterpieces with friends and family for hours of laughs.
The Threema messaging app by Threema makes sure that loved ones can securely communicate via end-to-end encrypted text, chat, or photos and video. Virtually share the holidays with far away family is the next best thing to having them there. Group chat makes it possible to visit and in today’s world, it’s good to know that it’s on a secure platform.
If you happen to be traveling during the holiday, the MAPS-dot-ME — world offline maps, has detailed maps and over a million points of interest for locations worldwide without the need for an Internet connection. It makes discovering new sights and sounds exciting and stress-free.
All the apps are optimized for Android tablets powered by Intel® Atom™ processors. To download them, head to the Google Play store. You can also learn more about other applications for Android by going to the Intel Apps for Android Showcase.
