1. Mapapers
Mapapers is a wallpaper app that allows you to create a stylized version of maps. Simply navigate to anywhere on a map, pan, zoom, and tilt to get the perfect view. Then choose one of the color styles. The roads, borders, rivers, and terrain will all get a really cool look. It’s like Google Live Cases for wallpaper.

2. Nwsty
Keeping up with the news can be a chore these days, but you don’t want to be one of those people that only reads the headlines. That doesn’t tell you anything. Nwsty allows you to read short summaries of the top news stories of the day. It’s not overwhelming, but you still get more information than a headline.

4. Chilly Snow
Chilly Snow is sort of like the old Ski-Free game, but instead of skier you’re a plain ball and the hill never ends. All you do is tap the screen to swerve back and forth to avoid trees. See how far you can get down the hill before hitting a tree or the edge of the screen. Don’t worry, no abominable snowmen in this game.
