An Android App a day - 27. ZigWheels - New & Used Cars

Hi Guys,

Not all apps are worth the time, effort or the memory from the ever reducing Gigabits of your smartphones but some of them you love the most and want to keep forever. We all have passion to drive cars or bikes and always wants to know about them first. We all remember the specifications difference between various models of cars. We go on word-of-mouth and advice from a lot of people before actually going in to buy the specific car or model we want to have. Autosector advice and websites offering new car features and review are ages old concept but not many have been able to leave a mark unlike Zigwheels which has topped the charts in India (www.zigwheels.com)

With more than millions of followers on their websites and facebook pages they have come up with this new App which will always help you to guide yourself and support others from the distress to find the perfect car within a budget range. Moreover, this app also finds the used cars available within your area and the interface is really very fast.

I tried the app and instantly fall in love with the various features available in the app. It has car and bike reviews, comparison between two cars, new launches, special coverages, latest news from automobile sector, motorsport etc. The features are unlimited in this new app.

An Android App a day - 26. Guiddoo

Hi Guys,

We all have travellers embedded deep inside all of us. Many a times, we go to the Wonders of the World and misses out hiring a Guide to explain about the history of the place. Now an app has hit the market which really gave the tour around the wonders of the world a new meaning. I virtually travelled the TAJ MAHAL AGRA using this app and felt great to know in detail about the place which I have or generally missed during the real trip. This app has built in commentary which really helps. It gives you a detailed info with right pictures from the start to the end of those places. Try it for yourself and really relive all those memories of the place and know about the place a lot more than the original guide must have told you. 

Checkout the app at - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wi.guiddoo

There is only a tour that is free at the moment and that is of TAJ MAHAL, AGRA for which all the data is available to be downloaded for free. For rest of the places, you need to purchase and virtually tour the place in detail. At the moment only 7 places are available in this app but the developers are going to launch 200 of them. The ones available are Eiffel Tower, Hagia Sophia, Statue of Liverty, The Colosseum, Angkor Wat, Great Pyramids of Giza and Taj Mahal.

App Rating - 3.5/5

Cheers!!!

An Android App a day - 25. BrainBox Business Quiz

Hi Guys,

I have been a fan of General Knowledge and quiz competitions since school days. I used to participate in all of them and used to win a lot of lunch boxes, pens, pencils, books etc during those days. It really helped me groom my brain to think quickly and come up with an answer asap. During the course of life, I was unable to groom myself further and wasn't able to make it big in the quiz competitions. I came across Tata Crucible Quiz competition for the first time in Hyderabad when I was doing my MBA. Since then I have always tried to attend this competition whenever it happens in my city. I have fallen in love with the type of questions PickBrain asks during preliminary rounds and main finals. I have always tried to watch all the episodes on TATA_Crucible youtube page http://www.youtube.com/user/TataCrucible/videos.

This was the first time in many years that I was unable to win any Audience prize since I knew the answer but was not fast enough to raise my hand. It was a great day though as I won in their twitter contest #tweetasithappens for Delhi Zonal Finals.

Now after this 2013 season finale, the game has come up with an Android app for all the business quiz lovers. And again, I won the twitter #tweetasithappens contest because of the live streaming that was done by Team on Facebook page from Taj Mahal Hotel, Mumbai.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tatacrucible.brainbox&hl=en

It has questions divided into 5 rounds of 5 questions each based on several categories like Automobiles, Technology, Retail, Trivia, Marketing, E-Commerce etc to test the knowledge of fans around the world. 

I hope that more and more rounds with a lot of questions will be added to the app later. 

App rating - 3.5/5 More information about the quiz is available at - http://tatacrucible.com/

An Android App a day - 24. Candy Crush Saga

Hi Guys,

We all have played these color matching kind of games, where you match three of the same kind and it goes. If you four of them at one go, you get some extra power thing. And if you could do 5 or 6 in one go, then you are given very great power to demolish the whole pattern.

All my life I have been playing these kind of games and never ever I felt great about them until I came across Candy Crush Saga. This is one of the most difficult game with most amazing graphics. The theme built up in the game is also great as you move to different campaigns. 

The game is difficult because there is no way you can bypass a level unless you got some extra powers bought up or earned during the play of the game. I am stuck at some level bypassing which is going to take me ages. 

The game is available for free on Android at -

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.king.candycrushsaga 

App Rating - 4/5

Do check this one. It's simply amazing.

Thanks to King.com for making this game. 

Cheers!!!
