Every week we browse the new products on the Google Play Store and do a pearl search. Five of the most interesting titles will be presented to you in this weekly overview. This week's tips were passed on to us by the community. So, thanks for that!
Microsoft Launcher
Did you repaint your smartphone? So there is no better option than changing the launcher. To coincide with this, Microsoft released this week the preview version of version 6.0 of its popular launcher.
Important areas of the Android launcher have been completely revised. These include the dark mode or memory management. Previous users may lose their view because Microsoft lists the beta version as a separate entry in the Google Play Store.
In 2019, Microsoft announced new GitHub apps for iOS and Android. Now the software giant is taking action and has launched the preliminary version of the app on the Google Play Store. Microsoft bought GitHub in 2018. Hobbyists, open source communities, large companies and other ideas providers are on the development platform.
40 million members use GitHub not only to exchange codes, but also as a social network. With the new Android app, you can stay on the ball when you're on the go.

Mobile Carbonalyser
How much fuel does a YouTube video actually consume? Mobile Carbonalyser estimates the energy consumption of different activities with your smartphone. Based on the amount of data transferred when using applications, it determines power consumption.
The tool converts this to the number of cell phones loaded or the equivalent of the kilometers traveled in a car. In times when the ecological footprint will soon become part of the tax return, such data may become interesting.
