Best Android Apps on Google Play Store Week 5

This time we discuss in ‘best apps’, among other things, a medicine alarm clock and an app for beer lovers. Discover them here.

Medicine alarm clock & pill reminder & inventory management

You can get a grip on your medicines with the Medicine alarms and repeat prescriptions app. Which pill should I take and when? Where did the package insert go and how many medicines do I still have in stock? This app can answer all these questions on the basis of medicine alarms, notifications when you run out of medicines and an overview of package leaflets in the app. With the last notification you can order new medicines from your pharmacy from the app. This app can also handle complex medication schedules.

In addition, you can use the app as a medication passport and record medical data in it and, if desired, share it with family, carers and healthcare providers. You can send them a report with, for example, your medication passport, your intake history and your intake schedule.

Untappd – Discover Beer

Untappd is the app for beer lovers. With this app you can check in at pubs, discover new beers and unlock badges. The emphasis is always on the social element, because you can also share your photos and check-ins of your beers and get to know other beer lovers.

Besides a social network, Untappd is also a useful app if you want to learn more about beer in general. There is a discover function that allows you to search for local breweries, pubs and beers. A list of trending beers has also been integrated into the app, including user scores and basic information such as alcohol percentage.

Tor Browser

If you really want to get the most out of your privacy, Tor Browser is the undisputed number 1. This browser hides your real IP address and replaces it with another copy. This way, the site and your internet provider do not know that it is you visiting a website. In addition, your browsing history is not kept because you get a new IP address every time. This is very privacy-friendly but not always fast: because your traffic is also heavily encrypted, Tor is certainly not the fastest browser.

COWBOY – Electric Bike for Urban Riders

D Cowboy app connects you to your Cowboy e-bike. The app automatically unlocks your bike and gives you real-time directions and support. The app is also a navigation app and provides you with the fastest and important information on the go. The navigation part has been completely renewed. For example, the app now also recommends routes based on air quality and COWBOY has a first with this. This data is real-time and at a so-called ‘hyper-local’ level; this way you can also see the quality in your own street. The company would like to offer cyclists a healthy option in addition to the usual fastest route. The app also comes with GPS tracking, theft alarm and theft insurance. The latter two are part of Easy Rider Standard and Plus, which are subscriptions.
