5 applications for your Windows mobile that you should try (XIX)

We have a new roundup of apps to try on our Windows smartphone. This time we have tools that let us see the current weather, create comic-style collages, sort photos, scan cards, and read news.

Meteolens, an attractive weather application for Windows Phone

Beyond the large number of weather applications that we can find, it is always a good idea to see the new ones that are arriving. Meteolens is an interesting option to keep in mind, as long as we don't mind paying for it annually.

First let's talk about the application: when we enter we will see the weather data for our city on the main screen, and if we swipe down we can see more details such as humidity or where the wind is coming from.

If we go to the left we can find the predictions for 24 hours and 7 days. The application has a background photograph to decorate, and it also allows us to generate a Live Tile with the latest predictions.

The bad thing about the application is that to continue using it we must pay an annual cost of $1.99; If it were just a one-time cost, there wouldn't be so much of a problem. And it is that, in addition, except for the fluid interface and an attractive design, it does not have functionalities that add extra value (in fact, it does not have compatibility with the lock screen).

In any case, this does not mean that the application itself is attractive and functional, so it is up to each individual's discretion see if it is worth paying the annual price or not.

Comic IT, create cartoons with photos you've taken

Comic IT is an application that allows you to create comic caricatures with photos you've taken and add text vignettes and more.

When we enter the application we can choose different layouts to put our images, and then in the other options we can find images such as mustaches and bows, and bullets to include text in the photos.

The application is interesting and works quite well. Then when we finish we can save the photo and share it on social networks or by message.

Comic IT is free, but unfortunately you can't get it out with a payment.

Feed Viewer, read articles of all kinds from your Windows Phone

Feed Viewer is an application that lets us read news from sites that interest us from our smartphone. It is simple and does what it says very well.

When we enter the application, we must choose the sites we want to follow. Once this is done, if we go back, we can read the latest news from the chosen medium. The good thing about Feed Viewer is that we can read all the articles from the same application; it is not necessary to open the explorer as it can happen with, for example, Flipboard.

The design it has is simple and without many twists. You could even say that it is somewhat obsolete. In any case, it works well and smoothly.

Feed Viewer is a free app, but it only lets you add up to 3 feeds. If we want more we must pay for the premium version.

An important detail to mention is that it is available in Windows 10 as a universal application.
