Android and Windows Phone fans, don't worry, we've not left you our just because your noisy neighbour has been shouting loudly, this week's must-have apps collection includes a file manager for the Microsoft OS and an app that brings the ease of text messaging to email on your Google-powered device.
1. Nusiki
Available on: iOS, Android
Price: Free
Publisher: Nusiki
Nusiki is a social network with a specific focus - to help music fans share their favourite tunes with friends.
In short, it's everything MySpace wanted to be but couldn't quite pull off. Sharing music is as easy as posting a 140-character update or liking somebody's latest profile picture.
What to Read Next
There's a vast library of songs to delve into, a shuffle mode, and the option to listen in the background.
2. Sizzl
Available on: iOS
Price: Free
Publisher: Oscar Mayer
Processed meat giant Oscar Mayer has cooked up a dating app aimed exclusively at bacon lovers, because there's nothing sexier than fried pig.
Sizzl matches people based on such essential criteria as whether they like their bacon fried or grilled. You'll never suffer the disappointment of being matched with a non-bacon lover on Tinder again.
You might not meet your perfect match on there, but it's all in good fun.
3. vhoto
Available on: iOS
Price: Free
Publisher: Vhoto, inc
There are dozens of apps out there for creating your own GIFs, but vhoto is worth a punt thanks to its intuitive interface, extensive toolset and free price tag.
This iOS app lets users convert the best parts from their own videos into GIFs tailored for online sharing, complete with zany filters and embedded text.
Who needs to trawl the internet for dancing cats when you can create a short-form video of your own cat… dancing.
4. BBC iPlayer
Available on: iOS, Android, Windows Phone
Price: Free
Publisher: BBC
BBC iPlayer makes this week's round-up because it's now a lot better on iPad.
That's because the Beeb's on-demand service is one of the first apps to support iOS 9's picture-in-picture viewing, allowing users to slide a shrunken video into the corner of the screen, freeing up display real estate so you can use your tablet for something else.
iPlayer is also undergoing major changes on Android, where the BBC has launched a beta version of the player so users can test drive new feature before they launch.
5. Move to iOS
Available On: Android
Price: Free
Publisher: Apple
If you picked up an iPhone 6S Plus this week and you're jumping ship from Android, you're going to need this app.
Apple's first Android app is a bit of a cheeky one - it helps users carry their messages, contacts, pictures, calendar events, emails, and bookmarks over to their new iOS device and then advises them to recycle their old Google handset at the nearest Apple Store.
As is always the way, Apple has been seriously trolled since entering enemy territory, so if this app is of no use to you, you may at least get a good laugh out of some of the comments on Google Play.
6. Microsoft Send
Available on: Android, iOS
Price: Free
Publisher: Microsoft
Microsoft's latest Garage project is a service that makes email more like texting, so you can chat away without having to faff about with things like subject lines or your overflowing inbox.
Only messages sent through the app are visible in Send, whisking you away from the distractions of your standard inbox. Any emails you receive though will still be visible in the usual places.
There are a few caveats - the number of supported email providers is thin on the ground at launch and an Office 365 account is required to take advantage of Send.
7. Total Commander
Available on: Windows Phone
Price: Free
Publisher: Ghisler Software GmbH
Total Commander is a file manager app for Windows Phone devices that is based on the 22-year-old Windows Commander series of programmes.
Not only does it help you take a closer look at your phone's storage to see what is hogging the memory, it also includes a handy zip/unzip tool.
With an easy and intuitive interface, Total Commander gives you complete command over all of the files stored on your handset.
8. Hooked
Available On: iOS
Price: Free (with subscription fees)
Publisher: Telepathic
The age where great stories were exclusive to paper is long behind us, and Hooked is an app that aims to take advantage of that by catering for fiction fans on smartphone.
Developer Telepathic commissions short stories and dishes them out to subscribers in the form of text messages, spinning each tale in bite-sized chunks tailored for mobile.
The next great novel is unlikely to be told through the medium of text message, but you can't knock Telepathic for experimenting with a new and modern approach to storytelling.
9. Seedling Comic Studio
Available on: iOS
Price: Free
Publisher: Seedling
This is one of those apps that's geared towards kids, but is just as much fun - if not more fun - for adults to get involved with.
Seedling Comic Studio allows iOS users to create their own digital comic books using either the photos stored on their handset, or ones they have taken in-app.
There are dozens of cool tools to help you channel your inner Batman, from masks to conceal your secret identity to speech bubbles to help you turn your template into an engaging story.
App of the week
Nusiki for iOS devices is our latest app of the week. Services like Grooveshark connects people to music, but Nusiki connects people through music, and the user experience is almost effortless.
After a quick search you can share your favourite song with a single click. It's a hub where people unite around their love of music.
