Let’s go for a new top 5 apps of the week. Every weekend, we recommend recent Android and iOS applications to install on your smartphone or iPhone with your eyes closed. This week, we recommend, among other things, the Artifact application, an alternative to Twitter.
This top 5 is not like our selections of free applications that we offer you twice a week. Here, we install the applications on our own smartphones and test them. We check if there are not too many in-app purchases, ads and if the applications more or less respect your personal data.
We try to select useful applications, whether for productivity, personalization of your interface or digital well-being. And our top 5 always includes at least one mobile game. Applications can be free or paid, with or without subscription. But it will always be indicated!
Moodistory (Android and iOS)
Our health is not limited to the physical, there are also emotional and mental aspects to take into account. Moods play an important role in how we navigate life every day, and I’ve found that Moodistory was an effortless mood tracker that boasts a unique and beautiful design that is easy to use while respecting our privacy.
With Moodistory, creating a diary is child’s play, since it takes less than five seconds! You don’t even have to write a single word, which is perfect for those who have trouble expressing themselves. The built-in mood calendar helps you easily spot mood patterns, allowing you to track your emotional highs and lows.
Going one step further, you can analyze your mood swings and uncover the triggers for positivity while raising awareness for mental health. Plus, with over 180 events/activities across 10 categories, there’s no shortage of ways to describe your feelings!

Memix (Android et iOS)
It’s easy to say that memes have long since become popular culture among the masses. I’m sure you’ve seen a video meme that you want to send to your friends with a killer phrase, but you’d also like to change the text in a heartbeat, right?
To use Memix is child’s play. All you have to do is type in the right text, and the video meme will pick up what you wrote. From there, you can share it with the rest of your family and friends from a series of messaging apps. This will undoubtedly allow you to become the lord of memes within your discussion groups.
Thanks to the many templates offered, it is easy to select the right meme for a given situation. You can always view them in the different categories, and the user interface allows for easy navigation. However, keep in mind that sometimes there is a bit of a lag. At least this app is ad-free and free!

Momentory (Android)
While some of us dabble in journaling to let our thoughts run free, here’s an app that makes the process much more cerebral and mindful. Actually, Momentory even made me feel better after I finished. After all, this app is all about expressing gratitude, letting go of worries, and proper self-reflection on a daily basis.
This app’s animated and soothing background gently fades as you type your thoughts, and you can even add emojis for a fun touch. Try writing down at least three things you’re grateful for each day or week to boost positivity.
This streamlined journaling experience doesn’t overwhelm you with questions, making it easy to offload your worries. Without cloud storage, your entries remain private on your device. Want to get rid of stress? Set a “worry hour” to postpone your concerns at a specific time of the day!

Dr Who: Lost In Time (Android & iOS)
Dr Who fans will definitely find Dr Who: Lost in Time worthwhile. This is a game that features the characters from the famous TV series and asks you to collect resources in order to use them to upgrade items in different iconic locations that fans are familiar with.
In fact, this is a time travel game where you have to save the timeline of events. You can go back in time by reliving past stories, and the nostalgia is strong in this game. Don’t expect to see anything revolutionary in this game, but it’s a nice walk down memory lane.
It’s always nice to receive Kerblam Boxes at the end of a task, where you can then enjoy your rewards. Also be prepared to strap in and jump into the TARDIS at any time so you can fast travel to the next adventure!
