An idle mind is the devil’s workshop, sure. But, for some of us, an idle mind is a brewing pot for weirdness. Take these 14 apps for example. These are some of the utterly strange, and to a large extent pointless apps, some people actually came up with. No, I am not judging their skills, after all, there is creativity in everything now. Even the most stupid of ideas, apparently, can be expressed creatively.
1. Drunk Dial No! – To prevent you from drunk dialing people you absolutely shouldn’t!
Drunk dialing can be extremely dangerous, and this app helps minimize your chances of facing the danger of calling someone you absolutely should NOT under the influence of alcohol.
It holds down your out-of-control mind and fingers for like 12 hours, and, it also has a feature that can help retrieve the Snapchats sent the night before.
Now you must be thinking, “hey, this is useful”, but as it turns out, according to some reviews, it doesn’t even work.
2. Annoy-A-Teen- To set the teens right by screeching in their ears
Too hung up on fluctuating hormonal levels, teenagers are never easy to deal with. Yes, we all have given annoying times to our parents during that phase, that’s true. But, they didn’t have the advantage of this (absolutely weird but useless nevertheless) app to fight us. This app plays mind numbing sounds that you as an adult probably won’t be able to hear but a teen, very well can!
3. Fake Call-Â To help you escape the socially awkward situations
Call up yourself on your own number, because vellas we all are. Specifically, this app allows you to text and fake call yourself. It also has a feature that allows you to pre-record your own voice so that when you actually get a fake call (by you to you), there’s actually someone talking on the phone (you to you!).
Voila! You are no more alone.
The makers of this app, however, call it a saviour that can help you escape awkward social situations like a boring meeting, annoying party, etc. But, in order to make the utmost use of this advantage, you will have to decide in advance and pre-set the time you want to be escaped at.
Also, there is another app of similar nature (but jazzier) called, Celebrity Fake Call!
4. Beer FREE-Â When you are totally out of cash and want a beer, this app will (not) give you the beer!
Because drinking actual beer is too mainstream?
Also, once you finish off all the beer by tilting your phone, it burps.
Doing their best to give a real experience out of something totally virtual, oh yes.
5. Honey, It’s me!-  She is Mina and she will always be good to you
Well, its function is just as annoying as the term given to it! For men, though, it is annoying to whole another level because this is one girl in the world they definitely can’t get. The chic’s name is Mina and the maker of the app says that she possesses enviable beauty and voice. Ooooooh! (NOT)
No matter how hard a day you have had and how badly you behave, she will always eat up your bad mood with a smile and wish you good night on Facetime.

6. iVoodoo- Because voodoo dolls aren’t very easy to find these days. Hence, the app.
You can simply drag any image (of anyone) from your gallery and place it as the face on the doll, or you can also click one and put it up! There are 7 pins in total signifying: Positive, Negative, Power, Success, Love and Spirituality. You can use any to infuse the value into the doll.
(And they thought science believers are not blinded by superstitions!)
Or,
You can totally forget about the symbolism each pin carries and about the whole spiritual connect with the voodoo dolls. Instead, you can simply put up the picture of your hater on it and keep pinning it to vent your annoyance over the person. Yeah, that’s a good one.

7. Hang Time- Throw your phone &Â record the time it stays for, in the air.
Now, if you do want to play a catch game with your phone, make sure you or, your friend (if you are not playing solo, that is) actually catch the phone. Another safe version can be jumping with the phone in your hand on a trampoline or on your bed. Or, throwing the phone on your bed.
But, if extreme falls are what you want to test your phone for, there are high chances that it will not work, well mainly because your phone won’t be alive enough for the app to function.
8. Pimple Popper- No words
The single most gross (yet addictive for some) act has an app made out of it now. Ooze out the fluid and it will reward you with a ‘Good!!’
9. Kawaii Assistant- Treat her like a lady, and she will be good to you. And yes, you can poke her too.
This Japanese assistant not only makes critical decisions for you but also entertains you when boredom strikes. Known by the name Suki Yamamoto, some even find her better than the traditional Siri, yet less smart! Also, the feature has a ‘mood meter’ that tells you if you start to irk her. She needs good lady-like treatment to be of any help. There are also additional stupid features like ‘poke’, which when used to poke her at different places, makes her react. What’s more? You can also play rock-paper-scissors with Suki!
Fun, no? NO?
NO.
10. Sheep Counter- For the insomniacs
Sheep keep jumping over a fence one by one. They just take the leap and land.
Take the leap and land.
Take the leap and land.
Take the leap and land.
-zzz zzz.
And this happens for as many times as you make ’em jump.
Exciting and not at all dull, isn’t it? Well, they made it being mindful of the insomniacs, so that explains it.
11. Ingrown Nail Remover Surgery-Â To teach you about it
Okay, it is basically to educate about the causes of ingrown nails and medical procedures that can help you remove it. But, the point is, would you still download it? Wouldn’t going to a doctor be a better option any day?
13. Bubble Wrap- Yes, it is just as fun as bursting the real bubble wrap. Only, less flexible.
Yeah, so now you don’t have to buy the handle-with-care objects in order to play your favourite game.
Who new bursting bubbles could be so addictive that they would actually make an app out of it?
Useless yet addictive, this app is.
13. I Am Rich- To show off how rich (and stupid) you are
This app is an utterly weird kind of way to show off how loaded you are. It displays a red coloured gem on your screen, grabbing the attention of people near you and telling them you are rich AF (and also stupid AF). This app was formerly a part of iOS app store and required you to shell out about $1000 to enrich the already pretty expensive iPhone. Now, this symbol of the rich can be bought for free of cost from Android play store.
If you ask me, they should have just stayed in bed and stared at the ceiling, instead.
