For working professionals and pretty much any of us who have a job, our phone is like an un-official clock-in that can become really toxic. Daywise tries to assuage this toxicity by managing your notification for you.
The barrage of notifications that can pile up in your notification center can become really overwhelming. Daywise puts more control in your hands by identifying and organizing important notifications. It will also batch notifications to ensure that you are not disturbed and remain calm and focused whenever necessary.

This app is for Pinterest boarders and organizers, but if you’re not one and still want a decent curating app, we recommend Curated.

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite
The Wizarding world has definitely made a pretty exciting entry into the digital world. Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is a delightful experience, even if you aren’t a Potterhead.
Besides the great AR experience, the fact that this game is highly interactive and serves a noble purpose making it a tantalizing play for those of us who love adventures.

Survive The Bridge
As the name suggests, you have to try to cross and survive the bridges while they fall apart. We like this game for being simple with minimal controls. The nifty controls also ensure that you can navigate this game like a pro in very little time.
The game certainly has a lot of potential and we look forward to the different cityscapes that it will eventually expand into. Meanwhile, you can still enjoy the current lot and decide if more are worth the purchase.

Gravity Box – Minimalist Physics Game
We like Gravity Box for its minimalist set-up. This physics puzzle uses blasts to push a box around, till you can ensure it reaches the finish point.
The early levels are fairly simple and you will be equipped with a rocket launcher that you will control by tapping the screen. Once you master the trick of using the right amount of force by launching rockets at the right distance and angle, the game will go to the next level.
Download: Gravity Box
Sea Stars: World Rescue
This adorable runner dash game uses the Flappy bird mechanism, except you’re navigating a cute dolphin instead of a bird. Also, all of this will be happening is an epic underwater setting.
The premise of Sea Stars is simple. You will navigate the Dolphin to save the ocean and make it through rough tides to earn points and power-ups. Also, do not underestimate the savagery of this game just because of the cute theme.
Download: Sea Stars
UniCorn – Born of Corn
Impeccable aim and flip management are key to cracking UniCorn. This absurd game has one goal, to transform a normal regular horse into a magical unicorn by throwing a corncob at it.
You can also do this to other animals, as long as you get the aim right. You can turn anything into a UniCorn as long as you get a perfectly placed cob on the animal’s forehead.
Download: UniCorn
If you like strategy gaming on mobile, chances are this game is already in your list. But if you are still unaware of this one, we recommend that you try Empire Warriors Premium.
This game is an intense amalgamation of powerful heroes, unique towers, epic challenges and humor that will get you hooked. Everything you do in this game has a cool backstory as well.
Download: Empire Warriors Premium
Stickman Legends: Shadow War Offline Fighting Game
One of the best offline fighting games available, Stickman Legends is an interesting mix of RPG and PvP in which you’re a ninja who has to beat enemies.
The biggest perk of this game is access to stick fight style even offline. So if you want to get a good fight in without having to watch ads and go online, this one is a great game available on the Play Store.
Download: Stickman Legends
Buff Knight – Idle RPG Runner
The retro feel and controls of this game will take you on a lovely nostalgia trip. Buff Knight is a continuous runner game except that you will focus more on defense and offense.
Buff Knight definitely takes some time to get used to, but once you do, it will be difficult to stop. If you loved being on your Gameboy, definitely try this one.
