B612, a fun application to take selfies

B612 is an interesting application that allows you to take selfies and put all kinds of filters on them in real time. It is very easy to use, and has a large number of filters.

When we start the tool, it will turn on the front camera and start recording.At the bottom we have options that allow us to create a collage that will ask us to take several photos and change the selected filter. And if we move our finger from top to bottom we can switch from the front to the rear camera.

B612 is an application designed and very easy to use, making it a perfect tool for a quick selfie.

This application is free, and we can download from the application store.

Slack, use the service from your Windows Phone

If you're a heavily engaged user of Slack, you should definitely try the service's Windows Phone app.

With this you can enter the different chat rooms where you participate and send messages. It works well and has smooth animations, making it very easy and comfortable to use.

On the right we can see all the rooms where we participate, and by selecting some of them we can see the latest messages sent. Obviously we can also send messages, and we will receive notifications on the phone of the last people who tag us.

Slack is currently in open beta, so we may have bugs along the way. And obviously, it's completely free.

Enpass, an application to manage passwords

Enpass is a useful tool that allows us to manage passwords and private data that we want to keep and protect. It uses SQLCIPHER as a method of encrypting our data.

When we log in to Enpass and set our master password, we will be able to save credit card information, email accounts, monetary data, and more. In addition to that, this application allows us to synchronize the information with services such as Dropbox and OneDrive, and download the data to other devices (by the way, Enpass is also available on Windows 10).

It is a very functional application that ensures security in our sensitive data. For that reason, it retails for $9.99, so it's up to you whether it's worth a try or not.

Feedlab, a Feedly client for Windows Phone

Although there is a good variety of RSS readers that are good (Nextgen Reader, for example), Feedlab is another option available that allows us to read Feedly articles from our smartphone.

The application has an attractive design faithful to Feedly, with green pastel tones. On top of that it has a smooth interface and it works pretty well. On the main screen, the application will order the most outstanding articles by category, and then if we press on the top left we can see all the categories and articles from specific sites.

Feedlab is free, but it has at the top that we can make a payment (defined by us) to help the developer continue working. Unfortunately Feedlab does not have content download for offline viewing, so we hope this important functionality will come later.

CamScanner, scan physical documents and convert them into editable files

If we are looking for an alternative to Office Lens, CamScanner can undoubtedly be well adapted to what we need. With this application we can scan physical documents and then send them to different cloud services for later editing or saving.

When we enter the application, after registering, we can take pictures of any document that we have nearby and then edit, for example, the brightness level. When we have finished editing it, we can save it as an image or use the recognition system so that the words now become editable sentences, which we can copy or take to Word.

CamScanner has a very polished interface and you can tell from afar that it was made with a lot of effort and dedication. This app is not new as it has been available on Android and iOS for quite some time.

CamScanner is a free application, but it has a premium subscription that allows us to export files to platforms such as Dropbox, Box, Google Drive and more, recognize texts and copy them to txt, send files with a password , and more.
