Top Stories #Great Apps You've Probably Never Heard Of


 

A few years ago there was an app called Meerkat with the main purpose to stream live videos just like Periscope. The app received $12 million in start-up funding, but unfortunately never took off mainly because Twitter bought Periscope which later went viral.

The owners of Meerkat app didn't let that discourage them and they immediately started developing a new app called Houseparty. You've probably never heard of it, but the app is now used by millions of people in the US alone.

Naturally, this made us wonder - how many other great apps are we missing out on? So we did the research and we came up with 5 incredibly useful apps we had no idea existed. In this article, we would like to share these apps with you so you could have as much fun as we did using them. So let's begin!

Hear

This app was previously known as H—R. Hear harmonizes the sounds around you to help you  reduce stress and be less distracted. It remixes surrounding sounds with your phones’ built-in microphone and lets you hear them throughout various filters like super hearing, sleep, relax and the list goes on. This makes for great white noise if you need to eliminate sounds around you. Besides that, it is also great for city bike rides or jogging because it lets you listen to music while at the same time providing you with the sounds that are surrounding you.
