Prisma.

Given how many photo filter apps there are in the wild, it takes something special for one to truly stand out. Prisma’s filters and editing features are designed to turn any normal photo into a work of art. The effect is striking. Obviously, Prisma works better when you use it on a photo that’s a little more involved than a selfie, but it’s a generally well-made service for such an underrated app. Perfect for smartphone photographers looking to turn their work into something even more artistic. 

                                                                                    Wolfram Alpha.

Virtual assistants are great, but they’re not perfect. Siri struggles when it comes to quickly answering questions related to complex statistics. Wolfram Alpha doesn’t have that problem. It’s able to access a deep database to answer questions related to mathematics (simple and complex), astronomy, Earth science, and computational sciences, and more. It can also answer basic questions such a pop culture trivia, but it really shines when you ask it something that will require the app to produce a graph or chart. 

                                                                                         RunPee.

The rise of MoviePass makes it easier than ever to go to the movies, but MoviePass can’t tell you when the best time to sneak away for a bathroom break during a movie. This app actually uses the user-submitted information to let you know when the best time for a bathroom break is during popular movies playing in theaters. The math can be a little off from time to time, but for such a strange app, we must say that it works shockingly well.

                                                                                       Cheatsheet.

Cheatsheet is a note taking app designed to help you keep track of the little things in life. While you could just use a note taking app to write down things like what section of the parking lot your car is in or what your locker combination is, this widget allows you to turn those simple pieces of information into icons and little pieces of information that are easy to access at just a glance. At the very least, Cheatsheet helps you free some space on your go-to note app by taking all those little things we all jot down from time to time and giving you a better way to access them.

   The Infatuation.

There’s no shortage of apps out there that offer reviews of nearby restaurants, but the biggest ones require you to put your faith into some guy. The Infatuation is different. It’s run by a small team of restaurant critics who personally write every review of every restaurant and group them into categories that help you figure out where to eat. This app has been praised by some of the top industry critics as one of the most reliable restaurant recommendation guides out there.

   1Blocker Legacy.

There are just too many malicious ads out there to not at least consider having a blocker available. What makes this blocker stand out from the pack is its accessibility and versatility. Not only does this underrated app feature a ton of different settings perfect for “setting it and forgetting it,” but it even lets you block content on the fly without leaving your browser. You should probably consider downloading 1Blocker.

                                                                                             Flush.

Finding a public bathroom can be a real nightmare. Flush is the dream solution to that nightmare. Yes, Flush helps you find nearby toilets. It’s not the noblest function in the world, but it is a particularly useful one for most people. Flush sounds ridiculous, but we’re willing to bet this underrated app is going to sound a lot less ridiculous the next time you actually need it.

                                                                                           Deliveries. 

If you shop online, you know how annoying it can be to keep up with deliveries. Well, Deliveries makes that process a little easier by compiling all of your incoming shipment information into one place. It works with just about every major retail shipping service out there and is updated as frequently – if not more frequently – than the built-in trackers most online stores use. Deliveries makes a very common part of modern life as easy as it should be. 

     RunGo.

You know how frustrating it can be to find the perfect route. Between cut-offs, lights, and construction, running in a city isn’t nearly as easy as it should be. RunGo helps you plan and track the perfect running route while this underrated app’s built-in voice functions ensure that you never get off-course unless you decide to do so. You can even browse existing popular routes near you.
