    Power Tune-Up

    Price: Free

    Bitdefender Power Tune-Up helps you save the battery life and manage performance on your Android. You can view and stop the processes that are hurting your CPU and RAM, and see how much talk or standby time you have left. The app also helps you to clear up unnecessary files from your phone's internal storage and memory cards. If you're worried about 3G data roaming, you can also keep track of how much data you're using, and setting up thresholds to receive notifications.

    Klout

    Price: Free
    Platform: iOS (iPhone)

    Those who like to see how important they are can now look at their Klout score at any time on their iPhone via the official app. You can use the app to look at your Klout score (Klout measures influence based on your interaction on social networks; for example, how many people like your Facebook posts), or to discover new people on social media. You get to see your score all the time, since you can see it from the home screen, even if you're not using the app. If you still miss when your score goes up and down, you'll get notifications. Alternatively, you can choose to forgo all of that by turning off these features.
