Software to unleash the true power of your Galaxy S4's 1080p
screen, super-fast innards, myriad sensors, IR blaster and 13MP camera.
Take
full advantage of the S4's myriad sensory powers: predict the next
coming rain using the pressure and humidity sensors, or plan you where
to take snaps using the light sensor. It’ll leave you feeling like an
all-seeing cyborg.
Google Play
Hyper
real racing on a mobile. A year ago this level of graphics was reserved
for consoles only, but now you can race the likes of Audi R8s and BMW
M3s in full 1080p resolution with next-gen lighting. We defy you to play
CSR Racing without leaning round the corners as you steer.

Sometimes,
science is so clever that you feel like a person from ancient times
crying “witchcraft!” – and that's the case here. Using algorithm smarts,
Magisto seamlessly combines your video clips and snaps with themes and
music to instantly create movies. And thanks to the S4 processor you
won’t have to wait around too long while it works its magic.
Google Play
Take
advantage of the S4’s floating apps with a browser that, at a touch,
brings up a web window that’ll let you continue using some of the screen
for other tasks. Taking notes from a site? It’s easy with this app.
Google Play
Use
the IR blaster on your S4 to control anything – well, over 300,000
devices anyway. That should cover your TV and set-top box, with some air
conditioners and DSLRs chucked into the mix too. It’s certainly cheaper
than a conventional universal remote, and in this case you'll have it
everywhere you go. Good for turning up the volume in the pub then.
Google Play
Stream
full 1080p movies and TV shows directly to your eyeballs, via your S4.
Anywhere. Assuming you have Wi-Fi, or don’t mind paying the data
charges, this library of entertainment is easily accessible from an app
that’s designed with such minimalism even Jony Ive would be impressed
(not that he'd ever admit to that about an Android app).
Google Play
Simply
some of the best graphics you’ll see on a mobile. From beads of sweat
to fountains of blood, the gory action will have you enthralled in this
3D boxing game. It sports over 30 fights, three belts and 20 opponents,
which should keep you busy for a while. Just don’t get too carried away
and launch your phone across the floor.
Google Play
Take
advantage of the S4's super-fast Internet connection and giant screen
by letting Everything Home guide you. Just type or speak what’s on your
mind and it’ll find everything locally on your phone, and online,
associated with that. A simple but experience-expanding way to search
beyond the limits of Google. It's still in beta, mind you – so you may
encounter a few quirks along the way.
Google Play
This
does exactly what the name suggests. Unlike normal notifications, these
pop up in a handy bubble on top of any app. One tap tells you what it
is and another takes you to it, or you can double tap to get rid of the
bubble. It's simple, effective and runs smoothly with the mega RAM of
the S4.
Google Play
While
the app is free, you’ll have to shell out for a live animation of your
favourite hero on your lock screen. But that includes custom alerts like
Daily Bugle headlines, screen tap actions, 3D graphics that can be
viewed by rotating the phone, and character-specific widgets like
clocks.
