Price: Free; in-app purchases available between $1.49 and $1.99

The basic version of Fresh Paint is free, but there are plenty of in-app purchases for people who want more from it. You can even buy activity packs that include drawing and painting activities for the kids.
Netflix

Price: Free, but Netflix subscription is required
The Windows 10 Netflix app makes watching TV shows and movies easier than ever. Instead of navigating to the Netflix website, you just launch the app from your desktop. It will remember your password, so you don't have to worry about losing access to content.
The Netflix app is specifically designed for viewing TV on multiple devices. This is convenient, for instance, if you start watching a movie on your laptop, you can switch to your tablet to continue watching when you get in bed. As long as you have the app on your other devices, it will pick up where you left off.
Dropbox

Price: Free (additional storage space requires payment)
Cloud storage is becoming increasingly popular as people want to share files and access them from multiple devices. With Dropbox, you can share files without attaching them to emails (which rarely works well for large files).
Signing up for the Windows 10 Dropbox app gives you 2GB of free space. You can always purchase more storage space if you need it. This is useful whether you have an expensive desktop computer with 6400GB of storage or one of Lenovo's affordable Flex Series laptops like the Ideapad 100, which has 500GB of space.
This version of the app also lets you download favorite files. This makes it possible for you to view the file even when you do not have an Internet connection.
Drawboard PDF

Adding Drawboard PDF to Windows 10 gives you several useful features such as:

With Flipboard, you can:
Instead of visiting several websites for news and social media updates, you just make Flipboard one of your live tiles.
There are thousands of apps that you can add to Windows 10. Most people will find that these five apps significantly enhance their experiences. If you need something slightly different, though, there are plenty of choices out there.
