Top New Windows 10 Apps Worth Trying Now

Microsoft Store may not be on the same level as Google Play or App Store, but it is certainly growing rapidly. Microsoft has expanded its range of apps in the store to help users get the most out of the Windows 10 operating system. In addition to supporting developers from all over the world in publishing their free apps on the store, most of which are valuable, while the rest are just junk! So let’s review below 5 of the best new Windows 10 apps that we have recently tested and believe you should try because they are useful. It is worth noting that Kareem Ali previously prepared a topic including distinguished applications that you might need to review as well.

I do not know who is behind the development of this application, but he is certainly a creative and professional person, as Quran-All-in-One offers a fantastic experience – or the perfect experience for any Muslim who wants to read, listen and interpret the Holy Quran from Windows 10. The application is completely free, and once you start it, you will get a simple graphical interface with modern design techniques, as well as excellent arrangement of buttons and related options; on the right side, you can select a specific surah or verse from the surah, and then the application starts displaying the verses in full in both Arabic and English, with the knowledge that it supports the translation of the Holy Quran into different languages (specifically 45 languages).

By right-clicking on any verse, you can choose “Show Tafseers” to read its interpretation according to the most famous interpreters of the Holy Quran (more than 10 interpreters), or choose “Play Recitation” to recite the verse with a melodious voice from the most famous Quran reciters in the Arab world (more than 30 reciters). You can easily copy the Arabic text or the translated text, as well as resume reading from where you left off by adding a “bookmark” at the verse you stopped at. The application allows you to create an account and save all your favorite verses, the surahs you have completed, and your personal notes associated with the Quranic verses, so the application truly has a terrific number of advantages.

Other aspects related to this application include the ability to change themes, the displayed font and its size, font color, and other options that it offers to users who are looking to customize the application to their specific needs. So, I think it is a very important application that should be tried. [Download the app]

Windows comes with built-in backup tools that help you create backups of important data. However, sometimes files may be lost or accidentally deleted. Therefore, Microsoft introduced its new application, Windows File Recovery, to assist users in these cases, as it provides a simple – but not easy – way to attempt to recover files that are no longer on the local storage unit.

The application is free, but it only works on Windows 10 version 2004 and later. For unknown reasons, it is operated by a command line, as it does not come with a regular user interface. Still, you can overlook that considering that Kareem Ali has previously written a post explaining how to use the application simply. In addition, the application offers advanced features that give you more control over the data recovery process, such as searching for deleted photos only, or searching for files that were in a specific folder. Moreover, it allows you to exclude certain types of files during the search. It is worth noting that the application supports recovering files from internal, external, or portable storage drives.

The Files UWP application provides a concept of what the default file management tool for Windows should be (File Explorer), coming with a very sleek, modern, and highly practical interface to access files stored on drives connected to the computer, reflecting ease of use. In other words, working with the application will not make you feel that it is a third-party application that was not developed by Microsoft because of its smooth usability and compatibility with the new design of Windows 10 while maintaining the basic layout already used in File Explorer.

In addition to the graphical interface, Files UWP also comes with two very useful features. The first and most important feature, of course, is that the application allows users to open multiple tabs and browse multiple folders or disks from a single window. However, the main drawback of this feature is that you cannot control and manage these tabs with the same flexibility found in web browsers, but this may be overcome in the final version as the application is still under development. The second feature is the ability to go back to the root of a path with one click instead of pressing the back button multiple times. Overall, it is an alternative worth trying if you are tired of using File Explorer. [Download the app]

Screen Recorder Lite is one of the professional applications you can rely on to record your computer screen video or at least capture a screenshot of the screen. The Screen Recorder Lite application comes with a huge number of useful features for anyone who wants to create promotional videos, record tutorial videos, record gaming progress, record video calls and live shows, etc. The application interface is simple, making it easy to select video resolution, format, frame rate before recording, workspace, and also disable the webcam or record audio from the microphone. And the great thing is that it does not add a watermark to the video after recording, even though it is completely free. [Download the app]

Amazon Prime Video service may not be as widely known as Netflix, OSN, Hulu, and other services for watching movies and series, but it is truly an excellent service and should not be underestimated. It offers a somewhat unique viewing experience, and the subscription cost is reasonable compared to the pricing plans of other services. Anyway, if you are already using the service, let me tell you that there is now a dedicated Amazon Prime Video app on the Microsoft Store.

It was possible to watch content from Prime Video through Chrome or Edge browsers, but the site does not provide a way to download this content and keep it on the computer for offline access. So, the Amazon Prime Video application has come, which allows you to watch movies and series and the ability to download them for offline viewing, which is a unique feature, as the Netflix app for Windows 10 does not offer the download feature as it does in the smartphone app. And, of course, we tested the application as soon as it arrived in the store, and we found that it provides a smooth viewing experience and the download feature works excellently as the application gives you 3 options to download any movie or episode, with each option representing the display quality (Good, Better, Best). However, there is a downside that we must mention, as during testing we noticed that the highest display resolution of movies is 720p, although it is possible to stream in 1080p resolution through the website via the web browser. It is also worth mentioning that the application signals that the movie is viewable in “4K UHD” resolution. But perhaps this will change in the future. [Download the app]
