50 Featured Free Apps for Windows

Windows Metro apps or modern apps is Microsoft's creation of a database of apps that run on mobile tablets or laptops with windows operating system

These applications made their appearance with the advent of windows 8. Microsoft designed Metro, also known as Modern interface to simplify the use of applications making them easy to use even by the most ignorant.

Through the Windows Store, thousands of applications are sold every day and many new ones are added. However, as is also the case in the respective Stores of Apple and Google, although free applications are many, very good free applications are few.

And to make it even more clear, good, for us, we mean those apps that either don't show any ads at all, or show minimal, or non-intrusive ads, but at the same time are reliable and fully functional.

So, based on the above reasoning, we searched, identified and present the best applications we found that we believe meet the above characteristics. Of course the list is long and there are certainly many more worthy applications that have not been considered and will be added in the near future. 

However, you can also help by writing in your comments applications that we may have missed and that you think deserve to be published so that our other readers can get to know them.

THE PROGRAMMS



f.lux

1.

We know that nighttime exposure to blue light affects the circadian rhythm. The science behind this has made leaps and bounds in the last 20 years, with the discovery of a new photopigment in the eye called Melanopsin. 

A wide range of colors appear to be able to stimulate the circadian rhythm in humans, and so while we refer to "blue light" to distinguish it from light seen by our visual system, it also includes lights that appear as green, blue, cyan , even orange. Computer screens, tablets and mobile phones emit full-spectrum light around the clock, just like the sun. 

Exposure to blue light at the wrong time of day can keep you awake and affect your sleep quality. f.lux tries to help you by removing blue and green light and help you relax at night. 

It may take a few days to get used to the new colors at night, so we recommend that you adjust the night colors in the app to what suits your eyes best. After a few days of use with f.lux, and after experimenting a bit with the settings, find which color suits you best. 

The default setting of 3400K in Windows removes about 3/4 of the blue and about half of the green light. You can remove even more notification light by selecting Color Range Expansion to unlock other colors as well. 34

Viber

43.

Viber is probably the best free Messenger app out there. Uses your mobile internet connection (either Wi-Fi or mobile data) to send text messages, share photos and videos, add stickers, or make calls and video calls - all for FREE!

Send messages, photos, videos, contact information and audio recordings and make free calls and video calls with audio quality. Express yourself with fun stickers and bring your messages to life by sending colorful stickers, animations and emoticons.

 Have group chats with up to 200 participants and like messages. Delete a message even after it's been sent. Use Viber on your tablet and mobile phone at the same time. Now let's see how to use it. In principle, we should first download the application to our mobile phone and activate it by writing in the relevant field our phone number. We will receive an SMS with the code that we must enter in the corresponding field in order to activate it.

For the computer we follow exactly the same. After installing the program, run the viber icon from your computer's desktop and write your mobile phone number in the corresponding field.

In a very short time we will receive an SMS on our mobile phone and we will put this code in the corresponding field in the application on our computer just as we did for our mobile phone. Simply put, in order to be able to activate Viper from our computer, we must first run and activate our application from our mobile phone.

Whatsapp

Send messages to friends and family, chat via voice and video, and exchange files. WhatsApp uses your phone's internet connection to send messages, so you can avoid SMS charges. Keep in touch with the groups of people you care about most, like your family or friends. With group chats, you can share messages, photos and videos with up to 256 people at once. You can also give your group a name, mute or customize notifications, and more.

With WhatsApp Web and Desktop versions, you can seamlessly sync all conversations on your computer, so you can chat on whichever device works best for you. Download the desktop app or visit web.whatsapp.com to get started. With voice calls, you can talk to your friends and family for free, even if they are in another country. While with free video calling, you can have face-to-face conversations when voice and text just aren't enough.

WhatsApp voice and video calls use your phone's internet connection, not your voice plan, so you don't have to worry about expensive call charges. WhatsApp full encryption is used when you message another person using WhatsApp Messenger and ensures that only you and the person you are communicating with can read or listen to what you are discussing. No one else, not even WhatsApp itself. 

This is because with full encryption your messages are protected with an electronic locking system, and only the recipient and you have the necessary special key to unlock and read them. This is all done automatically, so you don't need to activate any settings to protect your messages.

You can even send photos and videos instantly. With WhatsApp, sending photos and videos is fast even if your connection is slow. Finally, you can send PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, presentations and more up to 100MB.
