Top 5 slow motion Android apps for camera lovers

Are you looking for slow motion android video apps for your inner videographer. These are five of the best slow motion video apps for Android.

Android phones and tablets have cameras that you can record video with, but not all of them have slow motion recording options for them. However, slow motion playback is undoubtedly a very handy option to have for editing videos and sport coaching. With it, you can check parts of the video in greater detail before editing.

AndroVid Video Editor

Firstly, AndroVid Video Editor is a freely available app, which is a bonus. It's not specifically a slow motion video editor, but a more general editing app for videos. Among the numerous options it includes is slow motion video playback. Furthermore, you can then add extra effects such as fade in, vintage and sepia to the video with this app. With AndroVid, you can also split the slow motion video into a couple of separate clips and extract frames from them.

Coach's Eye

Coach's Eye is an app getting some rave reviews on Google Play. As the title highlights, this is a slow motion app more specifically designed for sport coaching. With this app, you can record things and then slow the videos right down. It's more specifically geared to sport coaches so that they can record sports such as athletic races, but anybody can use it. This app includes extra drawing tools so that you can draw arrows, lines and circles on the videos. It also has record audio commentary for videos, which is another handy option. There is a free version of the app, but the Pro version is retailing at $4.99.

Slow Motion Video

If you have a higher resolution camera, Slow Motion Video is one app to note. It enables you to record high-resolution videos and play them in slow motion. You can also watch through the videos frame by frame. Also, users can now select videos from their galleries to play in slow motion.

ReAction Slo-Mo Pro

If you need to create some slow motion action sequences in videos, check out ReAction Slo-Mo Pro. With this app, you can add the slow motion effect to the video without any loss of quality or motion blurs. The best thing is the app's flexibility, as it enables you to add slow motion to smaller portions of the video. Slow Motion Pro also includes IAPs for slow motion Speed Bump profiles, which are more specific video effects.

Slow Motion Free

Slow Motion Free is a freely available Android app that also has a Pro version with no adds in it. The good thing about this app is it that you can both record in slow motion or play a recorded video and make adjustments to its speed. This app also has some additional handy options such as its frame rate bar sensitivity and unlimited recording. Furthermore, you can also save videos to external storage. However, note those extra options are only available in the Pro version.

So these are five of the best slow motion video apps for the Android. Some of the apps are also available for the iOS. With them, you can record slow motion videos and then edit them. You can also check out our 10 best android online storage apps list.

Windows Mobile Weekly Digest: BUILDing new features, Facebook universal apps, and Minecraft customizations

There's a lot going on in the world of Windows Phone. So much, in fact, that it is sometimes tough to catch every important story.

Device rumors come and go. New apps join the Windows Phone Store, and your favorite app can get a big update with a new look or new features.

Therefore, every week we will compile a list of the Windows Phone news that you just shouldn't miss. Welcome to the "Windows Mobile Weekly Digest."

1. Windows Mobile

The Lumia 650 officially went on sale at the Microsoft Stores in the U.S and Canada this week for the low price of $199.00 unlocked. If you're considering picking one up, be sure to check out our review.

Microsoft's developer conference Build 2016 took place in San Francisco, and there we learned about some of the upcoming features for Windows 10 Mobile.

One thing devs will be able to include in their apps will be "chaseable" Live Tiles, which, when pressed, will bring the user directly to the story in the app that is appearing on the tile.

Toast notifications will be much more "interactive" as well. They will be capable of including larger images, more information, and different options for when they are acknowledged.

But far and away the coolest feature demonstrated at Build 2016 was Xbox controller and game support for Continuum Not only will gamers be able to use their controller on their phone, but they will also have the option to beam their game to a nearby PC. *Windows Central went hands-on with the Xbox controller support to give you a closer look.

Microsoft's Windows and Devices head Terry Myerson ruffled some feathers when he said that Windows Phone is "not the core" for its developer interest for the time being:

"We're fully committed to that 4-inch screen, there will be a time for it to be our focus, but right now it's part of the family but it's not the core of where I hope to generate developer interest over the next year

However, he did reiterate the company's commitment to the platform and when you take a moment to look at Microsoft's strategy, Myerson's comment actually makes a lot of sense.

Other notable items: 2. Apps

Bank of America has begun internal testing of their Windows 10 app. Though leaked pictures of their internal website had people thinking it may actually be released to the public this week, the banking app is not due out until sometime this summer.

The Windows 10 Mobile Camera app got updated adding the previously promised forced HDR option with on, off and auto modes. The update also brings video pausing to the phone app, which was already available on Windows 10 PCs and tablets.

Speaking of videos, Instagram has rolled out support for video uploads of up to 60 seconds, quadrupling the former 15-second limit.

HD camera maker GoPro confirmed that it will discontinue providing updates for its Windows Phone app. It's unclear whether or not this is in preparation for a future universal app, but all logos and mention of the Windows Store have been removed from the company's website.

And the Windows 10 social media experience will soon get a whole lot better. Microsoft announced at Build 2016 that Facebook universal Windows 10 apps will be coming "soon." This includes not only the primary Facebook app, but also Instagram, Messenger, and Facebook's advertising SDK.

Other notable items: 3. Games

We reviewed MouseCraft, the popular puzzle game that recently made its way over from other platforms.

And Minecraft's developer, Mojang, said they to bring the same customization that players on PCs have to the mobile and Windows 10 versions with the help of command blocks.

"Using command blocks, you can add new Minecraft rules that do things like teleport players to a different part of the virtual world, reward them with a powerful sword, confine them to a jail, summon a flying pig into existence and obliterate all dangerous zombies."

Though there's no concrete timeline yet, Mojang is assessing the requirements and forming a game plan.

WhatsApp Updated InBuilt Camera Interface for Android Verison

Once you download the WhatsApp 2.16.9 SIS file to your Nokia Symbian device, you will need to uninstall the current WhatsApp application from your smartphone.

One of the most requested changes in the comment section of each WhatsApp article we post is an updated camera interface (well, beside GIF support).

The look of WhatsApp was overhauled a year ago when it finally got a Material Design update but the camera interface remained stuck in the past. In the app, big blue-colored shutter button has been removed and in place of that, a related looking white color button has been fixed.

WhatsApp for Android is getting another update, this time completely revamping its in-app camera interface so that users will actually want to take and share photos. Instead, there's a new white shutter button, new flash and switch camera icons, a roll of your most recent images (camera photos and saved images from other apps) for easy sharing, and a small tip at the top that explains how to take videos. For stopping, the users can simply lift their fingers up.

After you capture your photo or video, the interface for sharing and captioning has also gotten a bit of a facelift. Now the big circular send and cancel buttons have been replaced by a single teal-coloured send button, same which we see in a regular chat window. If the user doesn't want to send the media, they can tap on the new arrow located to the left of the recipient's name on the upper-most top of the screen.

The new WhatsApp 2.16.9 version for Nokia Symbian doesn't come with any changes, but it fixes some bugs and issues that the developers have found on the previous version of the update. Users who are interested in becoming a Beta tester of the messenger app on Google Play Store can go to the https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.whatsapp/ and tap on "Become A Tester" button. As part of the app's version 2.12.17 for iOS and 2.12.535 for Android, users just have to type specific symbols before and after the word or phrase to format it. For example, add asterisks before and after the word (*bold*) in order to bold it. They can also download and install it manually using the signed apk files shared by APK Mirror website.

Pratyusha Banerjee was dressed as bride for last ritesShe was even part of popular shows like Sasural Simar Ka, Bigg Boss 7, Jhalak Dikhla Jaa 5 and Power Couple with Rahul. Although police is quizzing Rahul in this suicide case, however, no such proof has been traced against Singh yet.

WhatsApp Revamps In-App Camera Interface In Latest Android Update

WhatsApp for Android is getting another update, this time completely revamping its in-app camera interface so that users will actually want to take and share photos.

Previously, the popular messaging app's built-in camera was far from impressive. It was functional — users could open the feature and snap a photo to send — but that was pretty much it. It had a dated blue shutter button in between the flash and selfie mode icons that were not displayed all the way to the bottom of the screen. This made the icons feel intrusive.

Now, the redesigned camera interface features a more modern and sleek design, displaying its icons like other messaging or photo apps. Instead of a blue shutter button, users will now have a white one, where they tap to take a picture and hold down to record a video just like Snapchat. The flash and switch icons also appear whiter and more bold as part of the redesign.

Once the user takes a photo or records a video, the caption screen will appear. This screen has also been revamped to have a more transparent caption section, as well as to display the photo in full-screen.

To send the message, previously, WhatsApp users would see an "x" button to cancel or "check" to send. Now, the in-app camera features a bluish-green arrow button to send. If the user doesn't want to send the media, they can tap on the new arrow located to the left of the recipient's name on the upper-most top of the screen.

The changed camera interface is available via the 2.16.4 and 2.16.5 beta versions of WhatsApp. The redesign of this feature is expected to hit the Google Play Store for the public in a few days. 

While the camera redesign isn't a huge new feature, WhatsApp recently added formatting features that allow users to now use bold, italic and strikethrough in their messages. As part of the app's version 2.12.17 for iOS and 2.12.535 for Android, users just have to type specific symbols before and after the word or phrase to format it. For example, add asterisks before and after the word (*bold*) in order to bold it. 

WhatsApp is available to download for free for iOS and Android.

Samsung Galaxy S7 tips and tricks

Samsung Galaxy S7

$649.00

Amazon

The S7 is packed with useful features to make things easier. / © AndroidPIT Samsung Galaxy S7: use split-screen mode

You don't need to wait for Android N to get split-screen mode on your Galaxy S7: you can do it by tapping the square button and looking for a double rectangle icon on each app. Not all apps will have it - some apps don't support the split-screen mode - but apps that do will pop to the top of the screen and enable you to choose another app for the bottom half.

Samsung Galaxy S7: see more icons at the same time

Wish your home screen were even bigger? Samsung offers the next best thing: a grid of smaller app icons, enabling you to cram more icons onto a single screen. Tap and hold an empty spot on your homescreen and you should see customization options including Screen Grid. The default is four icons by four, but you can choose 4 x 5 or 5 x 5 to fit more app icons in.

The screen defaults to a 4x4 icon grid but you can have 4x5 or 5x5. / © ANDROIDPIT Samsung Galaxy S7: get to the camera more quickly

Never mind scrolling through apps to find the camera: bring it up instantly with a double-tap on the Home key and use the volume keys to take photos. And while we're on the subject of Camera, you can also take Apple-style Motion Photos, which capture the moments before and after a shot to give you little videos when you tap on them in Gallery.

Samsung Galaxy S7: get complete control over the camera

Samsung's automatic camera modes generally do a great job of taking photos in all kinds of conditions, but if you like to mess around with ISOs, contrast and white balance then you'll find the equivalent of a DSLR's manual mode in the Camera app's Pro Mode. Tap on Mode > Pro in the camera app to access it and tinker with the camera settings to your heart's content.

Samsung's automatic mode is good, but pros should tap Mode > Pro for more control. / © ANDROIDPIT Samsung Galaxy S7: don't let anyone interrupt your gaming

The Game Launcher widget isn't just a game launcher: it's a sanity preserver. You can use it to ensure that notifications don't interrupt your gaming sessions, so you won't miss a headshot because somebody's trying to sell you insurance, and it can also ensure that accidentally hitting buttons won't boot you out and into the camera app. You can also record your gaming sessions to share with others, and if you're feeling particularly good about yourself that can include the front-facing camera so people can see your in-game gurning. That one's for braver gamers, we think.

Samsung Galaxy S7: turn Always On off

We really like the Galaxy's Always On display, which displays the time and key information without powering up the whole display, but if you don't want or need it you can turn it off by going into Settings > Display > Always On display. Don't expect to see a massive increase in battery life, however: Samsung says that Always On uses no more than 1% of battery power per hour, so its effect on your battery life is hardly worth worrying about.

You can turn Always On off, but don't expect a big battery boost. / © ANDROIDPIT Samsung Galaxy S7: dial the screen down

Samsung's a big fan of super-bright Super AMOLED displays, which deliver eye-popping color. But not everybody enjoys the retina-blasting characteristics, so Samsung offers an alternative: go into Settings > Display > Screen Mode and select the Basic color profile. This calms the Super AMOLED down a bit.

Basic mode makes the screen a little calmer. / © ANDROIDPIT Samsung Galaxy S7: move apps to a microSD card

After a brief holiday in the S6, expandable storage is back in the Galaxy - and that means you can free up internal storage by moving apps to the memory card. Stick the card it and then go to Settings > Apps > Application Apps. You can't move the default apps, but you can move third-party apps.

Have you found any other top tips and tricks for getting the most from your Samsung Galaxy S7, or have you found third-party apps that make it even more useful and fun? Let us know in the comments!
