Before
migrating to another country, you must know that place’s living
conditions. You should check if the place is conducive for living and if
it is right for your budget. SHARAMOBi’s
Cost of Living
app gives you an idea of how much you will spend in a certain country.
You will be able to see the estimated cost of products, how much you
will spend for meals, the estimated cost of restaurants, cost of clothes
and apparel, and more. The app supports US Dollar, PHP, and EUR
currencies. It also contains a wide selection of countries in its
database and even allows you compare prices between countries. Get the
ad-free Cost of Living app for about US$2.00 from the Google Play Store.

you the type of person who wants to be the first to greet a friend
happy birthday through text but you keep falling asleep when the clock
strikes 12? How about repeatedly sending reminders to your friends? With
DRC INFOTECH’s
Auto SMS Sender,
you won’t need to touch your phone in order to send a message. All you

can do important things while letting your phone send your messages for
you. Get the ad-free Auto SMS Sender app for free from the Google Play

We
store a lot of confidential information on our Android phones. Instead
of just keeping that information on our handsets, it is better that we
clear that data, such as the browser history, so it can’t be accessed by
prying eyes. You can use Micropile’s
History Eraser & Privacy App
so you can erase confidential information from your Android handset.
Aside from erasing your browsing history, you can also erase your SMS
messages, Google Play Store history, search history, clipboard, Gmail
history, and video, photo, and map history. Just mark the data you want
to clear out and tap the Protect Now! button. Instantly erase
confidential data with the History Eraser & Privacy App, available
for free from the Google Play Store.

relaxing tunes. There are 4 music packages in the app which you’ll need

you’re tired at work, just close your eyes and listen to the relaxing
tune. You can download the Social BrainGym app for about a dollar from
