band camp
To download
- Discovery of new independent artists
- Transparency on the remuneration of musicians
- Huge community
Bandcamp offers an original and attractive concept: that of discovering new independent artists and being able to directly support their work by buying albums or derivative products. In addition to a pleasant interface, the application is free and greatly distinguishes itself from the competition thanks to its fair and transparent approach to royalties.

Bandcamp is an application that allows solo musicians and groups to distribute and sell their creations. It differs from streaming giants such as Spotify or Deezer by its transparency regarding the royalties paid to artists. The concept carries ethical values, allowing artists to make themselves known and listeners to encourage and support them.
Skillshare
To download
- Quality of speakers
- Variety of courses offered
Skillshare leaves us a little skeptical. If we appreciate the variety and the quality of the various speakers, we regret the way in which the publisher pushes for the subscription of a subscription. The video player is devoid of any options. We would like to find more international teachers. The course search is not very intuitive and could be improved. The application is not uninteresting, but other completely free alternatives exist and deserve to be preferred.

Skillshare is a platform for anyone wishing to acquire new skills. Accessible on a computer via a web browser, but also on smartphones thanks to the iOS and Android mobile applications, Skillshare has no less than 7 million learners registered with the service. If the platform provides courses oriented business and personal development, its first strength lies in the creative field. Photography, illustration, animation, music… Skillshare works on a subscription model. The only problem for those less at ease in foreign languages, the courses are given in the language of Shakespeare. On the other hand, note all the same the presence of subtitles in French.

Twilight is a somewhat special application since it responds to sleep problems related to late use of the smartphone. Indeed, it is well known that the blue lights emitted by screens are harmful to the circadian rhythm, that is to say the process managing our biological clock. The concept of the Twilight app is to change the color temperature of the smartphone screen. It is perfectly possible to program this change in the evening or to choose to activate the screen filter permanently. Although Twilight is quite effective, it is specified that the rendering on the screen is “yellowed” and that the application does not surpass the anti-blue light treatment given to certain pairs of glasses.

From Niantic studios, already at the origin of the great success granted to the mobile game Pokemon Go, Pikmin Bloom uses the codes of the eponymous game while introducing the use of the pedometer and geolocation. Here, the focus is on the distance traveled as well as the number of steps taken. In the case of this game, it will be a question of planting virtual seeds and growing these plants by walking different distances. As you will have understood, these are counted thanks to the pedometer of the smartphone as well as its geolocation.
