"There's an app for everything," is a phrase you hear a lot these days, and in fact, there is an app for almost everything you can imagine. Many are unexpectedly useful, some can save you money, and others are perfect for shortening the time you spend on the toilet. When you consider how easy it is to implement brilliant app ideas, it should come as no shock that some of the Google Play and App Store offers are less spectacular. Here are some of the most absurd Apps that exist and that nobody really needs.
Send Me To Heaven (SMTH)
«Send Me To Heaven», or SMTH for short, works by measuring how high you can throw your phone into the air and catch it again. This is the only way to play the game again and again. But as you can imagine, for many users it is the last game they play on their device. Because the required coordination of eyes and hands does not work for everyone. Especially if you want to win and throw it several meters into the air. The inventor of this app has openly set himself the goal of mobile devices To eliminate devices from the world because he is annoyed by the many devices and he is very successful at it.
Is it dark outside?
The app does exactly what the name suggests. The app tells inclined users whether it is dark outside or not. In addition, there is information on longitude and latitude and on sunrise and sunset. «Is it dark Outside?» reveals the result of her sophisticated calculations in this universal app without frills and without beating around the bush. For this, however, it is necessary for the app to be able to access the GPS location. Because unlike some other apps, the current location is not used for better tailored advertising. Rather, this is an indispensable prerequisite for a reliable calculation. You certainly don't want to risk the app delivering incorrect results.
Fix a fight
Everyone knows couples who simply cannot develop a proper culture of argument. There are great conflict apps that help to end a fight digitally. With "Fix a fight" (4,99 euros), for example, the parties to the dispute can easily state their state of excitement before, during and after the conflict (you can choose between "exhausted" or "angry") and inform the other person via smartphone notification . So instead of throwing vases and phrases at each other, the dispute is fought out digitally.
Cry Translator
"Cry Translator" (EUR 4,99) evaluates the cries of a baby that the smart parents have previously recorded with the iPhone and gives recommendations for action. Empathy 2.0 so to speak. The app developers recorded over 200 different baby cry samples over a period of around two years. Alleged experts then evaluated and categorized these sounds. Hunger, for example, is said to be assigned by a particular sound in a "crying sample" that accompanies the sucking reflex that a baby develops when hungry. The cries of your own offspring are then flux compared with the database and the app gives the parents information in a matter of seconds about what the baby supposedly wants to say with his cries.
Virtual cigarette smoking
As you can easily guess from the name, the app is a cigarette smoke simulator for mobile phones. To do this, you take a glow stick from the virtual pack, light it and watch the virtual cigarette slowly burn down on the phone screen. To smoke the cigarette, you can blow into the microphone, free of charge anywhere and without any health consequences.
Taxi Hold'em
Taxi Hold'em is not a poker app, as one might assume, but a taxi app. And there is nothing more or less you can do with it than turn the display into a taxi sign. All you can do now is hold your cell phone in the air to hail a taxi. At least that's the idea behind it. And to make the whole thing even more effective, the app whistles continuously after switching it on. But if you can't raise your arms, whistle or at least call "Taxi" with your fingers, it's probably better to take the bus...
Daily water
This app tracks how many glasses of water you consume during the day, because we all know how important it is to drink enough. I don't need an app like this myself, because I drink when I'm thirsty ... 
Couple
Let’s take a look at an app whose description actually sounds so useless that it almost makes sense: «Couple». A free app for iOS and Android, which is committed to being the perfect digital connection between two partners - the app equivalent of engagement rings, so to speak. Logically, the app only offers a single connection, so it is not for those who want to connect their entire community. Both partners have various features at their disposal, many of which could also be done with apps such as WhatsApp and/or Facebook Messenger: Messages can be sent, pictures and videos, voice messages, and location can also be shared. There are also one or two other (cheesy) gimmicks. For example, you can send your loved one a little drawing, or both can draw colorful knick-knacks at the same time. You can also ping the other person and send them a little "I'm thinking of you" message - in Facebook terms you would probably call this "nudge". What else is there? Oh yes, the “thumbkiss”: You press your thumb on the same spot on the display for about a second – which then turns red and… well, nothing and…
Yo
On the surface, the only function of "Yo" is that a user can text the word "Yo" to a friend who also uses the app. Nevertheless, "Yo" was only recently able to collect 1,5 million US dollars from investors. The valuation is now between 5 and 10 million dollars. Co-founders Or Arbel and Moshe Hogeg explained that they were offered a lot more. Yo has been downloaded more than 2 million times so far. The approximately 50 active users have already sent more than four million Yos. If Yo is indeed an app curiosity, it would be one of the most successful of all time.
iBeer
With «iBeer» there is free beer for everyone! Now you can treat yourself to a cool blonde beer on your smartphone whenever you want. Funapp turns your smartphone into a virtual beer glass that you can fill with the popular beer at any time. But you shouldn't move your glass too abruptly so that you don't spill anything. And if you drink too quickly, the glass can break. As soon as you move your virtual smartphone glass, the contents react. Gentle movements create more foam. Of course, the beer runs out of the virtual glass when you put it to your mouth. Funny sounds provide additional fun, for example when you pour and drink. Not to mention the burping sound after you've emptied the pot...
"Dravens Tales from the Crypt" has been enchanting for over 15 years with a tasteless mixture of humor, serious journalism - for current events and unbalanced reporting in the press politics - and zombies, garnished with lots of art, entertainment and punk rock. Draven has turned his hobby into a popular brand that cannot be classified.
My blog was never designed to spread news, let alone get political, but with current affairs I just can't help but capture information here that is otherwise censored on all other channels. I am aware that the design page may not seem "serious" to many in this regard, but I will not change this to please the "mainstream". Anyone who is open to non-state-compliant information sees the content and not the packaging. I've tried enough to provide people with information over the last 2 years, but quickly noticed that it never matters how it's "packaged", but what the other person's attitude towards it is. I don't want to put honey on anyone's mouth to meet expectations in any way, so I'll keep this design because hopefully at some point I'll be able to stop making these political statements, because it's not my goal to go on like this forever I leave it up to everyone how they deal with it. However, you are welcome to simply copy and distribute the content, my blog has always been under the WTFPL license.
It's hard for me to describe what I'm actually doing here, DravensTales has become a culture blog, music blog, shock blog, tech blog, horror blog, fun blog, a blog about found items on the internet, internet bizarre, trash blog, art blog, water heater, zeitgeist blog over the years , Scrap blog and grab bag blog called. Everything that is right ... - and yet not. The main focus of the blog is contemporary art, in the broadest sense of the word.
