Apps
1. Frequaw
For many, the Android home screen is littered with apps they don't use. Do you really need this picture editor that you open every couple of months? And Skype, on which you only talk with your granny, while all your other contacts have long been in Telegram? All these icons are only distractions, and there is not enough time to sort them all.
Frequaw allows you to collect them in one place. It records how often you tap on certain icons, and then displays them on the widget – everything is simple. As a result, you will have at hand only the most frequently launched programs. And apps you don't want to show to anyone can be added to the hidden list.

2. Remind Me
Not everyone likes to bother with notes, ToDo managers, and setting up a Google calendar to get reminders. Instead, they tritely create an alarm clock that should ring at the appointed time. But it can work, but remembering why this reminder was needed is not always possible.
Remind Me will come to the rescue. This program can give a signal at the appointed time, and at the same time it also shows notes. So it can be used not only to get up on time, but also to turn off the kettle or water the flowers. Recordings can also be hidden with a password if required. Most importantly, turn off battery optimization for Remind Me: on Xiaomi smartphones, it interferes with normal operation.

3. Statsfy
The app displays the statistics of your Spotify account. In it, you can find out the artists and tracks that you listened to in the last 4 weeks, 6 months, or for the entire time you used the streaming service. In addition, the music playback history is displayed here, which is very useful if you heard some cool song, but did not have time to save it to the library.

4. Goal Planner & Habit Reminder
All fans of productivity and mindfulness know that the right habits and routine are much more effective than any motivation and discipline. By creating a ritual for yourself, you will perform useful actions without spending willpower on them, the supply of which is limited. The only difficulty is to endure the first 2-3 weeks, and then the movement on the thumb will simply begin.
Habit trackers help a lot with this, and the Goal Planner & Habit Reminder is just in this category. From all others it is distinguished by free and no restrictions in functions. You create several reminders for yourself: “drink water”, “get up at 6:00”, “exercise”, and so on. You can assign different icons, colors, deadlines, days and times to tasks – there are enough settings here.
Then, when performing planned actions, mark them with a tick by dragging the slider. And Goal Planner will display on the calendar how well you are doing your things. This is great for reinforcing good habits.

Games
1. Downhill Smash
A simple yet insanely addictive toy. You play as a boulder operator who crushes all the zombies in his path. Here, in general, that's all. The only problem: if the boulder slows down, the walking dead will fill it with their carcasses. So it needs to be pumped in time – to install shock absorbers, spikes, bombs, machine guns, wheels and other devices that will look very organic on the stone. Arm yourself and cleanse the world of the brutal undead.
