My favourite apps of February

[It's me]
A recent study suggests that people check their phone's about 85 times a day (don't you just love all this incredibly useless information I provide you with? ;)), so you know, that pretty accurately represents the addictiveness and importance of our phones. And I'm not gonna deny it; I'm a pretty frequent user of my phone (although I have no problem with not having a phone for a few months when I've lost or broken my phone for the 127083987 time again). Although I sometimes doubt what I do all this time while I'm on my phone (I swear, time just disappears or something) I do know what some of my favourite apps are, so for today's article, here's a list of my favourite apps of February :)
♥Games♥
1. Subway surfers:
When I'm in awkward situations, when I'm bored or just when I'm procrastinating... I love to play games. One of the favourite games at the moment is Subway Surfers (yeah, I know, old but gold).

♥Tools♥
1. ColorNote
Albeit I'm incredibly annoyed by the fact that Color isn't written as Colour, I do absolutely love this app. Although most of us, if not all, will have a notes application on their phones, this one has more functions. For example, you can add widgets to your home screen, colour-organize your notes (duh), protect your notes with a password and give titles to your notes. I absolutely love it!
An alike-app can be installed for iOS, although it is produced by a different developer (free): Here
Available for Android (free): Here
2. Unseen
I'm prepared for all the hate I'm gonna get by posting this, but... sometimes I just wanna read someone's message without having to reply instantly; like when I'm busy I just want to know if it is urgent or if they can wait for an answer. The problem is that Facebook has this incredibly annoying read-receipt that can't be turned off, resulting in friends being annoyed with me
. So, I found this great app that lets me read messages from WhatsApp, Facebook and Viber (which I don't use) without my friends seeing that I read their message.
I couldn't find the exact app for iOS but there are tons of alike apps out there for iOS too.

1. SAMApp
SAMApp is an app that with breathing tips / games and other games that can help calm you down in stressful situations. I have found it to be incredibly helpful when I'm stressed or when I need to give a presentation for example. The app was produced by the University of the West of England and there is a lot of information about anxiety and coping mechanisms. Although it was particularly developed for people with anxiety, I have found it to be helpful in stressful situations too. :)

2. Merged!
A friend recently introduced me to this game during our obviously super-interesting history class. You get dice-like blocks with dots ranging from 1 - 6. If you place 3 of those blocks next to each other, they will merge so to create a new block with the next number (e.g. if you place 3 blocks with one dot, the new block will have two dots). Once you get three "M!"'s (created by merging three sixes), the surrounding 9 blocks will disappear. Your aim is to stay in as long as possible without filling up the board.
