3. Opera Mini
Scared of roaming fees, but need to look up something online? The Opera Mini browser shrinks webpages to as little as 10% of their original size. Your websites will load faster and cost less, since you’ll use much less data. Opera Mini helps with crowded Wi-Fi and poor internet reception, too.

6. TimerCam
If you are in remote places with no one to take your photo, but you’re tired of taking selfies, try a self-timer app. TimerCam is pretty awesome. It has a wonderful interface and the self-timer gives delays of 5, 10 or 15 seconds. It supports both back and front cameras.

Laptop Batteries

If your laptop battery can not backup as it used to and you can only get thirty minutes or at most forty five of work done before you need to start  searching for an AC outlet? Sounds like it's time for a replacement battery.
