| Gboard - the Google keyboard |
Gboard is the ultimate keyboard for Android. That's partly because it’s borrowed the best features from elsewhere – Glide Typing is remarkably similar to Skype for example – but it's more than that. Google search is built right into it, meaning that wherever you in Android you can quickly search for things. Someone wants to know where you're meeting? Get the address without leaving the chat window.

| Gallery Doctor – Photo Cleaner |
Let's face it: we all take a lot of photos, and not all of them are world beaters. The trouble is with limited storage; your phone can quickly become overrun with mediocre snaps. Yes, you can manually delete and back them up, but with the help of Gallery Doctor, that process can be entirely automated.
Gallery Doctor hunts down duplicate images and highlights them for deletion, but better still it knows what makes a good photo and can highlight your weaker efforts for deletion. Don't worry, you can check its working to make sure you're not deleting any classics – but it's a helpful extra critical eye when trying to reclaim precious space.

| LastPass Password Manager |
We all know the rules about password security, but we also know it's really, really boring to be good. Fortunately, LastPass takes away the hard work, making it easy to be secure. And it's free, to boot.
You'll need to spend a little time setting it up, but once you're done on a desktop, you're good to go on mobile. LastPass will generate long and hard to crack passwords unique to each site. The beauty is that you never need to memorise it. The app will detect a login screen, you sign in with your master password or thumbprint and it will automatically fill in your details. Security for the lazy!
Greenify (free)

| Greenify |
Getting the most from your phone’s battery is always key. A lollipop may have its own set of battery-saving tools, and many phones now offer power-saving modes, but these should be seen as a last resort.
Greenify sits in the background helping to regulate how much battery various apps are using. It freezes the apps you tell it to when you’re not using them and instantly defrosts them when you need to gain access.
Clean Master (free)

| Clean Master |
Nobody likes having a slow device, and Android somehow manages to grab digital detritus like a magnet in a junkyard. Clean Master is the mop and bucket you need to scrub your phone or tablet clean.
Clean Master’s Junk File Cleaning feature scans your Android device and chucks out any unwanted cache and residual files.

| Next Lock Screen |
Microsoft’s Garage project lets employees develop Android apps in their spare time, which is very fair-minded of the company. One of the best-known results of this scheme is Next Lock Screen, and this new version adds fingerprint scanning, provided your phone supports it; Smart Contacts and Smart Lock settings that let you configure how you unlock your device; and even location-sensitive wallpaper that changes automatically depending on where you are. Other useful features include detailed notifications that show all your missed calls, text messages and app alerts without you needing to “wake” your phone.
Because Next Lock Screen looks different to the standard Android layout, it effectively forces you to relearn your home screen, which is jarring, but it has already amassed many devotees and recently won a “best lock screen app for Android” award. Using it is almost like having a new phone without needing to pay for the upgrade.
Opera Max (free)

| Opera Max |
Unless you’re lucky enough to have unlimited data on your phone or a bottomless wallet, you’ll want to get the most out of your data package.
This is where Opera Max comes in. It crunches down the size of images and videos, speeds up website load times, and typically saves you from around a third to almost half of your general data use. You can restrict some apps to only ever connect via Wi-Fi, and temporarily turn off connections if you want to save some data for the end of the month.
