"If there is an app for that"

Xayn, Screenshot Journal, Beatsy and other apps to check out this weekend

December 12, 2020 by RSS Feed

In this week’s edition of our Apps of the Week roundup we have a new take on web searches, a productivity tool for screenshot-takers, and a fun AR app that brings your music to life. And as always, we’ve selected two great games for you to check out.

Xayn – Web Search as it should be

I can’t tell if this is a full-blown browser or just a web search app, but either way it’s super interesting. The interface is sharp and it has great features, but the focus here is privacy. The AI is behavior driven—your behavior—and it all happens on your device.

Screenshot Journal

Here’s a nice little productivity tool. It’s called Screenshot Journal, and as the name suggests, it helps you archive and organize your screenshots. I know not everyone takes a bunch of screenshots, but for those that do, this app is worth checking out.

Beatsy

Beatsy is an AR music visualizer that uses your phone’s microphone or music to modify real world surfaces. Turn your wall into a giant speaker or transform a road into a rolling wave of notes. You really have to see this thing in action to get it.
