The 5 Apps You Need on Your Phone NOW

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Illinois chapter.

I don’t know about you, but I am a college girl who loves to play games on my phone. Whenever someone introduces me to another game I am automatically hooked. Yes, this may not always be the best thing, and yes, sometimes we all choose to play games instead of doing our homework, but these are the apps you need to download! If you have more tests this week (because midterms never end) then I advise you not to keep reading. These are the top five games you need to download now and I promise you will live happily ever after with your device.

 

 

Dubsmash

This app isn’t very new, but if you don’t have it yet then you definitely need to get it now! This one isn’t really a game, but actually one of the best, most pointless app inventions ever. All you do is pick a video voice you want to do, reenact it yourself and voila! You now have a hilarious masterpiece. Celebs are even into this app!

 

 

1010

This app is basically just a twist on good ol’ fashioned Tetris. You are given three blocks at a time and you need to place them in position and your goal is to make a full row so it can disappear and you can keep playing. Simple right? Wrong. This game is a lot harder than it sounds which makes it even more addicting. Good luck with this one!

 

 

Diner Dash

Oldie, but such a goodie! This app can definitely cause stress sometimes because you’re trying to help your customers sit with each other while delivering them their food, all while watching their anger levels rise. This game is the perfect sick day activity! When you have no other responsibilities why not lay in bed and serve virtual food to your customers?

 

 

Covet

This app is the perfect game for online shopaholics. You enter in style challenges and have to design the perfect outfit with different requirements. The best part is that the clothes you “buy” are actually real clothes and brands you could buy in real life! The better you do in challenges, the more money you get (which means you can buy more clothes)!

 

 

Episodes

I know what you’re thinking, yes this is the Demi Lovato game and yes it’s amazing. You start off trying to get tickets to Demi’s show and then all the sudden you’re on tour with her! You only get two tickets, which allow you to play the episode, every three hours, which is kind of a bummer, but it is so addicting! You get to make choices during each episode, which leads you to different scenarios every time! This game is better than pizza, and this is not a joke (sorry pizza lovers but seriously, check it out and see if I’m wrong). Go download it now for free!
