Email app Boxer is bringing in some new features into its Android and iOS apps. The Android app can now be integrated with the newly introduced Calendar app from Boxer. Meanwhile, the iOS version gets the app rolled into the Boxer email app. Plus, they get a new contact manager as well. Let’s hope that feature comes to Android soon, too. The app is free for one account but if you want to link more, you’ll have to do so by purchasing it within the app.

Google Now’s ‘Ok Google’ adds WhatsApp, Viber, and WeChat support

Google’s voice-command system expands it reach in your phone further by adding support for some third-party messaging apps. Now, you can talk to the Google Now Launcher to send messages for you on WhatsApp, Viber, and WeChat. You just have to say: “Ok Google, send X message to Y: add message.” X represents the service and Y is the person in your contacts, that contact has to have the same name on your device and the corresponding app though for it to work. So, you can say “Ok Google, send Viber message to dad: Pick up milk today.” The app also adds support for Telegram and NextPlus for voice commands.

Star and create your own music video with Triller

The new iOS app Triller is a music video creator that doesn’t need you to have any editing chops. The app is designed to let you shoot a video from part of or one entire song from your library of featured tracks or your own collection. You then shoot multiple takes that can run for the entire length of the clip. Shoot as many takes as you want and customize these with the app’s 14 available filters. The app will then automatically edit these takes to turn it into one music video. Think of the app as your personal professional editor. Of course, you can share these on social media. I want to stay positive and think this is going to give birth to the next great pop star.
