Have
you found yourself browsing through
a napp shop on your phone or tablet, looking for something new and
cool, and you found
some really weird apps? Well, I am
sure you
have, and you
have downloaded some of them.
Like this one app,
that can unlock and unblock your phone using your finger print. Well,
that was a waste of space. You guessed well! All of my friends could
unblock my tablet. But at least it was flashy, ha ha.
Another fantastic
app
will present to you Ellen:
I must say, that the
Fan app is the best so far, and the most ridicules. The
worst is that some people actually
said it worked!
But there’s
another interesting
app: GymShamer. It humiliates
you publicly if you don’t go to the gym, by showing your current
location on FourSquare. I don’t know
about you, but
I don’t need this app to feel bad
if I don’t hit the gym. My spine does it for this app.
Another app, is
Ghost Radar Classic. This app tells you if you’re in a ghost zone.
It basically looks like a radar based on sonar and shows you where
the nearest ghost is. Watch out! You can get killed by it!
Better yet, there's
an app, that's called "useless app". It's created just to
waste your time on some dull nothing, ah ah.

And that's just sad....
Another is called
"the most useless app ever" and it's even worse than the
other one. Just
imagine giving someone a piece of paper with the text on both sides
"the other side" hoping that everyone would go back and forth
trying to read the message. Well,
it's something like
that...https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chris_economou.themostuselessappever
If you are really
bored, and some kind of
competitive, there's another useless, or weird app, if you'd like...
Whoever touches the screen the
longest,
wins!http://www.appcraver.com/hold-on-the-game-you-love-to-hate/
Another app is just
funny. It's a proposal app, that asks your girlfriend
to marry you. It's tacky, and.. well, if a girl agreed
after showing her THAT, run away
man....http://gizmodo.com/5158809/proposal-iphone-app-lets-someone-propose-to-your-future-wife-for-you
Another one. A mood sensor. No idea how it works, but it just takes space on your phone, believe me...http://www.appolicious.com/omg/apps/30342-mood-sense-lite-lauren-schmitt

You can google many lists of the weirdest apps from around the world. If you are interested, here is one: http://becomingacomputertechnician.com/the-20-most-outrageoususeless-iphone-apps
The same issue bothers me when browsing app stores - most of apps there are completely useless. I always wonder who installs "fart sound" apps and such, and to my amazement they are on the "top downloaded" list. It somehow makes me lose faith in humanity, but at the same time I think of all the great programmers making pretty awesome apps that I find useful, that get heavy usage on my phone, that many people would find useless - but hey, they are at least functional.
tones which repel insects. Of course it's not working. Moreover, I don't like apps which only redirect to another web page - you don't have to be a developer to put a link under a button. The simple games or funny apps like kwejk help to kill time, for example in queue. I still remember an app to draw on a steamy window. It's useless, but if you don't have a steamy windows at hand, you can take your smartphone and draw heart to another person.
But ofcourse there are a lot of usefull aplicaction, but sometimes weird. I really like "sky map". I don't know it's usefull, but it was fanny to look from it to sky :P
usually i prefer free apclication.
I only one time buy aplicaction it was DS emulator, it was really good buy :D
Another example is the already mentioned applications that don't do anything or send millions of notifications to the user. Another portion of useless applications are repeated games. The same game under several names.
When I already find free, useful app I'm flooded with tons of advertisements or micro payments ;D
The app I liked the most, was the alarm clock that didn’t stop ringing until you’ve taken a picture of a specific object.
It’s not so easy though, because it gives you different things to photograph. You need to take a picture of a sink, for example. So it won’t stop until you go to the bathroom. But how does it work? How does the app know that it’s a sink you’re photographing? Never mind, I came up with a perfect solution! Just sleep with an IKEA catalogue next to your bed, you’ll find everything there :)
The truth is, most apps are useless, they are made for fun.
My brother uses an alarm clock application where you have to do a mathematical task. After you’ve done it, the alarm stops. He likes the app very much! Even the slightest intellectual effort can you wake up!
