This is our selection of the best apps for the month. Take a look at our picks for best Android, iOS and Windows Phone games for November 2014
.
With another month behind us, it's time for our usual recap of the best Android, iPhone, iPad and Windows Phone games for the past month of November 2014, but what's not habitual is that we've had some fairly exciting new applications arrive to the Android and iOS platform.
As for Windows Phone? Some key players from the two largest platforms have made their way onto Microsoft's app catalog, and that's always welcome news.
From a surprising new launcher by non other than Nokia (yes, an Android launcher), to a major update to one of the best cooking apps out there, a fresh new live wallpaper application, and also new entrants in various other categories of apps, you can check out the best new Android, iPhone, and Windows Phone apps right below.
Z Launcher Beta
Category: Launcher
Price: Free
The Z Launcher Beta is an innovative solution from Nokia's emerging platforms group, which aims to omit the use of multiple home screens. The launcher only has one page, which displays a list of apps that it "thinks" you might need for the particular time of day. Of course, as with every prediction-based app – this one will need some time, before its guesses get more accurate.
Secondly, the launcher allows users to look for specific apps by scribbling letters on the screen. For example – if you are looking for the "calculator" app, just scribble a "c" anywhere over the screen, and you will be presented with a list of apps, starting with the letter. Typing out a second character (in our case - "a") will further narrow down the list of choices.
Minima Live Wallpaper
Category: Customization
Price: Free
For all lovers of minimalist shapes in motion, the Minima Live Wallpapers brings a truly good looking and fully customizable wallpaper experience. You get to pick all aspects of your live wallpapers and it all moves as you swipe between home panels. If you like the app, you might want to also get the premium version where all 'Pro' themes are unlocked.
C Notice
Category: Productivity
Price: Free (in-app purchases)
C Notice allows you to receive floating notifications from selected applications and keep track of everything that is important to you, directly from the lock screen, without needing to open the status bar. Plus, all notifications are styled in the Lollipop material design language and color coded. Nice!
QKSMS
Category: Messaging
Price: Free
Texting apps are not the most inspiring field right now - all with fairly plain uninspiring looks. Many people would love to see more color and liveliness in their texting app, and that's what QKSMS delivers.
Lumific
Category: Image gallery
Price: Free
A smart gallery app, Lumific organizes your images in a neat manner and does all this without annoying ads. It does a few things for you: automatically picks the best photo from similar photos and automatically enhances, straightens and crops all photos. Let us warn you - the results are not always admirable, but it does no harm and often improves images.
Getaways by Groupon
Category: Deals/Travel
Price: Free
If you're looking for good deals on travels, as well as ideas about where to spend a few blissful days off work, the new Getaways app by Groupon is a great place to look for ideas.
Yummly Recipes & Recipe Box
Category: Cooking
Price: Free
Yummly is one of the best cooking apps available for both iPhone and Android, but what makes it even more appealing is the filtering capability, allowing you to choose between recipes for each occasion, by cuisine (Asian, Mexican, Italian, etc), taste (sweet, sour, salty), diet (Pescetarian, Vegan, Gluten Free), nutrition (low carb, low fat, low cal, etc.), and so on.
