Between Apple’s App Store and the Google Play Store, there are tons of extremely useful apps out there designed to make our everyday lives easier. This article, however, is not about any of those apps.
Some applications exist to waste space in the App Store and eat up our time — or at least that’s what it seems like. If you use your smartphone like most people do — to check your email, surf the Web, play games or send text messages — you’ve probably never heard of these apps. That’s because they won’t help you do any of these things. Here’s a roundup of the strangest, stupidest and most pointless apps we could find.
Human To Animal Translators
Price: Free
we felt like apps that did that to animals deserved its own slot. There
are a variety of human-to-animal translators, dog whistles, animal sound
effects, fake laser pointers, and whatever else people can think of.
Obviously, they don’t work which means these are just really fancy
noisemakers that your animals probably hate anyway. You can get squeaky
toys at the pet store that make the same obnoxious noises, but at least
you have the comfort of knowing your animal will eventually destroy
them. We won’t tell you not to get these useless apps, but we really
should. Please note, these don’t include apps that make animal noises
for the purposes of education for kids.
Fidget Spinner
Price: Free
Fidget spinners are the rage these days. Invented in the 90s, this
spinning toy has reached unimaginable levels of popularity and is being
advertised as helpful for people who have trouble focusing.
But
for some reason, you can’t get yourself an actual fidget spinner, you
can use an app for it. Therefore, there is now an app for it. Fidget
Spinner provides a virtual fidget spinning experience, where you swipe
left or right to spin a virtual spinner and collect points.
iFrenchKiss
Price: Free
I don’t know if this is more stupid than it is gross, but it’s definitely both. This app claims to test your smooching skills by analyzing your kisses. “Use common sense and do not slobber all over the device,” the app description reads. Or, you could use common sense and not use an app to determine whether you’re a good kisser. I don’t know about you, but I think making out with your iPhone is way more embarrassing than being called a “bad kisser.” Just saying…
Virtual Cigarette Smoking
Price: Free
Just like the name suggests, Virtual Cigarette Smoking displays a virtual cigarette on your smartphone’s screen and lets you pretend that you’re smoking one.
You can even blow on your smartphone to make the cigarette ‘burn’ faster.
I am rich
Price: 999$
Am Rich is an iOS application developed by Armin Heinrich and which was distributed using the App Store. When launched, the screen only contains a glowing red gem and an icon that, when pressed, displays the following mantra in large text:[1]
I am rich
I deserv [sic] it
I am good,
healthy & successful
