 Featured Apps of 2023

We have witnessed the launch of new applications  that have won over a large number of users during this year. Others have received various novelties, giving them back a prominence perhaps somewhat lost. But here are things that do not change over the years.

We refer to those veteran applications that are maintained on a day-to-day basis without having a worthy alternative. So do not be startled if you find some other classic in the following list. I leave you with the applications for 2023.

Amazon Alexa

The application in charge of helping us to configure any device compatible with Alexa. Which also offers the user the option of listening to music, finding out the latest news or creating shopping lists, among a wide range of options. This makes it a must-have for any Amazon assistant user.

Something inconceivable a short time ago is now a reality: the autonomous store is among us. And the entry key to one of them is using the Amazon Go application in which we will register, and we can make the purchases we need. A few minutes after leaving the store, we will receive the invoice for everything purchased. It’s not magic; it’s Amazon.

Firefox: the Safe Browser

A classic that continues to stay on the crest of the wave: Firefox has received great news this year. Among them is its new Quantum engine , which offers more agile navigation and a redesign of the interface that makes the browser more attractive to the eye. All this while maintaining its commitment to security, a hallmark of the Firefox brand.

According to Google, the nerve center of the connected house: thanks to this application, we can configure and interact with various devices. Whether it is the Google Home assistant or the essential  Google Chromecast, we can turn off / on connected devices or send content wherever we want.

Google Keep: Notes and Lists

One of the handiest applications that Google put in the hands of users: this year, it has received some news—highlighting above all the premiere of its new design, following the new lines of Material Design. Take notes, generate lists and everything you need to have our day to day organized.

Google Podcast

The big news this day has been the Google podcast around the application. It allows us to listen, organize and keep track of our podcasts. In addition to discovering new content: Google Podcast is a simple, efficient application that occupies very little on our device.

Microsoft Edge

We are facing one of the pillars of the ecosystem that Microsoft has built on Android. Together with Microsoft Launcher, its Edge web browser makes an almost perfect match possible. It integrates perfectly with those Windows 10 users, moving the experience from one device to another in an almost transparent way, offering fast and safe browsing.

Netflix

The streaming amenities are here to stay, and Netflix is the one that has a thriving – established foundation. Despite restricting its use to unrooted or modified devices, the popularity of the service has remained intact. So it is still the favourite application for movie or series lovers.

Youtube Music

After its passage through gaming, one of the tentacles of YouTube became a possible rival of Spotify. Transporting all the experience of the most famous video portal in the world, now to the musical universe. Records, playlists, suggestions according to our tastes … Of course it has all the necessary ingredients
