28 of the Best Apps of 2014

This year has been a big year in apps — from wearables and phablets redefining what and how we download, to the Great Devicewide Emoji Takeover of ‘14 and the launch of this very series here at Brit + Co! We’re taking a break from our regularly scheduled weekly app roundup to bring you a look at 28 of the best downloads that took our smartphones by swipe this past year. Scroll back through some of our favorite DLs, some you missed and some worth taking into 2015 and beyond.

1. 7 Minute Workout: If fitness goals are anywhere near your New Year’s resolutions list, this app will make squeezing in a daily quicky no big thing, no matter where you are or how late you are to work. Plus, science says it’s technically the only workout you need (we’re paraphrasing) so why fight science? The other mini workouts it will eventually unlock the more you use it are just icing on the cake/abs on the tummy.

DL It: $1.99 on iOS

2. Adobe Creative Profile: In October, Adobe released nine (!) new apps that all have different, unique little keys for unlocking your creativity. Color lets you create themes, swatches and palettes from a photo you snapped, Shape turns your phone into a vector machine and Brush lets you make brushes from images of textures and shapes that you capture with your camera.

DL Them: Free on iOS

3. Autodesk Sketchbook: This app aims to give every artist a mobile toolkit for your tablet and smartphone with 100 pencils, pens, markers and brushes that you can customize and get creating with.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

4. Bitmoji: While we twiddle our thumbs and wait for our beloved emoji to catch up to speed in the diversity department (get it together, Unicode Consortium), you can make your own emoticons that look just like you with this app. And then put them into comic strips or pair them with your favorite phrases.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

5. Cinamatic: If you thought you were over Hipstamatic, this app made you reconsider abandoning it forever. It takes all of the stuff we loved about beautifying our photos before Instagram become our all-in-one and adds a video element that makes us all mobile indie doc makers.

DL It: Free on iOS

6. CosmoBody: Turn your living room, dorm room or hotel room into a full-on fitness class with this collection of motivating move it, move it sweat sessions. Pick from body specific classes (“Legs for Days,” “Score Flat Abs Fast,” “Shake That Ass!”) or take on one of the many multiple day challenges to get “Sexier By Saturday” or score that “Revenge” or “Wowza Wedding Body.” Warning: The app has snagged some one star reviews for difficulty canceling the one-week free trial.

DL It: The download is free (on iOS, Android, your computer and even Roku) but the service is $9.99 a month

7. Emojiary: Emoji had a big 2014 — and not *just* the girl in the pink shirt, the whole bunch. This innovative app works like a daily diary, prompting you to tell it how you’re feeling using just emoji. Tell your red dress dancing girl days apart from your syringe days in these textable therapy-on-the-go sessions.

DL It: Free on iOS

8. Flic: There was certainly no shortage of swiping this year in App Land but at least Flic wanted to help you find something much longer lasting: a cleaned out camera. We can *definitely* fall in love with that.

DL It: $1.99 on iOS

9. Fridge App: Like an activity tracker for your fridge, this app boasts the ability to monitor the perishables going in and out of your kitchen (with emphasis on moving them out). When you can’t afford those Jetsons-esque smart appliances just yet, apps like these are the next best thing.

DL It: $1.99 on iOS

10. Glow Nurture: Download a view of what to expect when you’re expecting in real time with an app that extends the life of fertility tracking Glow into all three trimesters and now even postpartum. Track every stage of your pregnancy with helpful health questions, important appointment reminders, a forum to speak with other parents in your same position and articles (including Brit + Co kids content!) relevant to your trimester.

DL It: Free on iOS

11. Heirloom: TBTs will never be this easy again, people. This app’s photo capturing capabilities for IRL prints are unparalleled and will help you digitize those stacks of albums in minutes… or over a fun evening with the fam.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

12. Humin: This is the upgrade your contacts app needs, espeeeecially if you’re a superstar networkers. Or a superstar forgetter. OR a superstar pick up artist. Humin lets you add context to your contacts, then search for them the same way. Find the new friend you “met Friday night,” or call up a biz contact who “works at Twitter,” even see which friends are in town this weekend so you know who to add to that group text.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

13. Hyperlapse: One of the top free apps of the year, this baby of Instagram lets you take easy, gorgeous time lapse videos and rack up all the likes from it.

DL It: Free on iOS

14. IFTTT: In 2013, we were all about recipes for fusion tacos and hybrid sweets. In 2014, it’s all about recipes of the digital variety led by bespoke “If This Then That” commands for our phones. If it’s sunny tomorrow, then set my alarm for 30 minutes earlier so I can get up and run. If I post a photo to Instagram, then delete it from my phone to save space. If I open Tinder past midnight, then just lock my phone already?

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

15. Kim Kardashian: Hollywood: We suppose you can’t have a 2014 app review without including Kim K’s mega money maker, so here it is. Honestly, as much as we want to throw shade at this game, we want to applaud Kim for giving the people what they want and continuing to bring home the bacon anyway she can.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS (but you pay to really play, natch)

16. NailSnaps: We were jazzed about this idea when it was just a Kickstarter, but now that it’s the real, downloadable deal?! Even better. Use it to create your own custom nail wraps out of beautiful designs from their own artists OR your own Instagrams and photos.

DL It: Free on iOS

17. NextGlass: Forget your go-to friend to text when you’re looking for a wine rec, this smart sommelier will recommend wine and beer that fits YOUR taste, which it learns over time from you rating different bottles you’ve tried.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

18. Paper by FiftyThree: Joining Adobe’s Creative Suite and Sketchbook, here’s another app that promises to make an artist out of you yet with the added bonus of a connected community called Mix where you can show off, share and re-scribble on Paper-made works of art.

DL It: Free on iOS, but the $3.99 Essentials pack is, well, essential

19. Post-It Plus: Take a picture of your wall of Post-Its and this app digitizes and organizes them and allows you to access and email them even when you’re nowhere near that mess of a desk. Mind blown? Yup, ours too.

DL It: Free on iOS

20. Spring: 2014 also rang in the year of the combo app. Like Instagram meets Pinterest meets your online shopping destination of choice (aka a decade ago: a mall), Spring lets you follow, scroll, swipe and double tap through your favorite brands and designers. You can then shop straight from the app, alerting you to when your favorite pieces go on sale or your highest ranked brands have new merch.

DL It: Free on iOS

21. SwiftKey: Standard keyboards are a thing of the past — or at least early 2014. This one lets you swipe your way through your emails and iMessages, using smart technology to predict what you’re about to say. Oo, and it comes in all kinds of pretty colors and festive skins.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

22. Shyp: Like TaskRabbit solely for shipping your packages, you can call up a shipping “hero” with this app to come and save your day from a trip to the post office. They’ll pick up whatever you need to get from A to B and make sure they get it there in a package that looks darn good too. We’re particularly partial to this app because you were able to get gifts wrapped in beautiful Brit + Co wrapping paper during the holidays with it.

DL It: Free on iOS

23. Somebody: We’re giving this one love for being so darn weird. Before there was an app where strangers could set your alarm for you, there was this brainchild from Miranda July, where you could get a stranger to deliver a message for you IRL.

DL It: Sorry, Somebodies. You’ll have to wait for 2015 to DL version 2.0.

24. Spruce: The doctor is in — 24/7 thanks to this on-demand dermatology app that lets you upload photos of problem areas to get a diagnosis and treatment for acne.

DL It: Free on iOS

25. Super! Is Biz Stone just trying to make fetch happen again? We’re willing to throw a bone and a download his way for this super fun meme maker that makes you think and create beyond our usual social media habits.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

26. Threes!: We’re always game for a beautiful game that gets our brains working in ways our Pinterest habit and our LC obsession don’t. Threes! is a math teacher’s dream and your commute’s new BFF.

DL It: $0.99 on Android and $1.99 on iOS

27. Wink: The smart home takeover is ON thanks to tech we’re able to connect to with our smartphones. Quirky’s Wink is a mobile control center for your home’s connected devices and a good preview for what to expect more of in coming years.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

28. Yo: Not to be confused with Yo Bitch, which is also great, this is the OG two-letter app that did nothing more than just let you send and receive Yos to contacts. This sleeping giant (or, this sleeping giant’s API) could be gearing itself up for an even bigger 2015. Or not. TBD.

DL It: Free on Android and iOS

Alright, this was definitely an interesting Halloween makeup tutorial to do for y’all, but it had to be done! There seems to be a handful of pop culture-inspired opportunities to rep this look on Halloween. From Bey’s awesome sad streaks in her “Why Don’t You Love Me” music video to the repeated "Girls will cry and girls will lie" in Sabrina Carpenter's "Lie to Girls," you can pretty much turn anything into a sad version as long it’s done well. Whether you are going for a scary or gory look — BTW, you can totally switch out the black liner here for a red one to make this bloody eye makeup (Max Mayfield anyone?) — you’ll still look pretty. Sad, but pretty.

The Best Cry Makeup Ever

Brit + Co

See how good this looks?! Let's get into it.

Prep: Flawless Face + Smokey Eye

Brit + Co

Follow this tutorial to get your base makeup started. Add a pretty dramatic smokey eye. Layer up the eyeliner on both your upper and lower lash line — you’re going to need the extra pigment to help get those sad little makeup streaks to fall down your pretty little cheeks.

Step 1: Concealer

Brit + Co

Normally I say keep it light on the concealer so it does not get cakey or look too heavy. In this case, you are going to be adding water and messing with the under eye area more than normal, so you want to go a bit more dramatic in this department. Apply an upside-down triangle shape and then blend in with a brush.

Step 2: Visine

Brit + Co

Add a few drops of Visine to your lower lash line. Be sure to start off by focusing on one eye, because you want to take the next step immediately so you don’t lose the Visine drop.

Step 3: Smear

Brit + Co

Use a thin makeup brush to gently encourage your eyeliner to bleed in the same pattern that the Visine drops are falling down your face.

Step 4: Highlight

Brit + Co

Add a pop of deep silver metallic shadow to the inside corners of your eyes. This is going to give the highlight and dimension we want, but it'll maintain more of a moody vibe.

Step 5: Repeat

Brit + Co

Go through these same four steps on the other eye! Easy peasy.

Brit + Co

Get your acting skills on and have fun with this pretty cry baby look! Play your go-to sad tunes to really get into the mood.

Brit + Co

So. Sad. (But so pretty!)

Despite his (very) questionable communication tactics, the world was immediately enraptured with Jeremy Allen White's Carmy when The Bear premiered on FX in 2022. And thanks to the show, and its various Emmy Awards, Carmy and his blue apron are instantly recognizable, as is Jeremy Allen White's next role: Bruce Springsteen.

The biopic joins a lineup of other highly anticipated movies like Timothée Chalamet's A Complete Unknown, about Bob Dylan, Selena Gomez's upcoming Linda Ronstadt biopic, and Paul Mescal's rumored role in the Beatles movies. And in addition to White's excitement for Deliver Me From Nowhere, the movie also has The Boss' stamp of approval! Here's everything we know about the upcoming movie.

What has Bruce Springsteen said about the movie?

It could be a very strange experience to have your life turned into a movie, but Bruce Springsteen seems to be having a great time. “It’s a lovely cast and I am involved a little,” he said on the Graham Norton Show (via People).

He also doesn't shy away from the fact that Jeremy Allen White's performance won't be exactly the same because "you can’t do an imitation, you have to do a personal interpretation."

“It’s difficult but he is a great actor and sings pretty good," he continues.

Will there be a Bruce Springsteen biopic?

Columbia/Sony Music Publishing

Deliver Me From Nowhere Plot

Yes, a Bruce Springsteen movie is on its way! Deliver Me From Nowhere will follow Warren Zanes' book of the same name, which chronicles the process of creating Bruce's 1982 album Nebraska. The movie comes from 20th Century Studios, who's behind other smash hits like Avatar: The Way of Water, The French Dispatch, and Alien: Romulus.

“Bruce Springsteen, and Nebraska, in particular, have had a profound impact on me and my work. Through themes of despair, disillusionment, and the struggles of everyday Americans, Bruce has formed an unparalleled legacy, painting an unflinching portrait of the human condition,” director Scott Cooper said in a statement (via The Hollywood Reporter). “Yet, amidst the darkness, a sense of resilience and a sense of hope shines through, reflecting an indomitable spirit. That’s the Bruce I’ve come to know and love and will honor with this film.”

When does the Bruce Springsteen movie come out?

Deliver Me From Nowhere Release Date

We don't have an official release date for the move yet, but they start shooting in November!

Who will play Bruce Springsteen in the movie?

Deliver Me From Nowhere Cast

Jeremy Allen White stars as rock icon Bruce Springsteen. “I’ve got a really beautiful team of people helping me and Bruce has been really lovely and supportive and available, which has made this whole process an extra joy," Jeremy Allen White told Deadline in September 2024. "His support and Jon Landau, his management's, support, who has a large role in the film as well. So I feel really lucky.”

He also told Variety in June that he's “gonna try [his] best" to do his own singing in the movie.

Jeremy is joined by Odessa Young, who's playing one of Bruce Springsteen's love interests. Since she nabbed a spot in the film, she's been “weeping multiple times a day, but tells Variety she hasn't met the rockstar yet. “I really think that it will send me down a path for which there is no return,” she says. “Like I cannot come back from that experience as the same person.”

Stay tuned for the latest news on Jeremy Allen White's Deliver Me From Nowhere! Read up on why the A Complete Unknown Trailer Cements Timothée Chalamet As An Oscar Contender for more biopic news.

In the realm of celebrity families, the Kardashians reign supreme. Among them, eldest sister Kourtney Kardashian stands out with her dynamic personality and well-documented (Hello, Keeping Up With The Kardashians!) foray into motherhood. She recently made it known that being a mom is her number one priority, and she won't allow anyone or anything to take her away from that. With that level of dedication, it's clear that Kourtney is an amazing mom with lots of love to give! Here's everything you should know about her sweet kids!

How many biological kids does Kourtney Kardashian have?

Kourtney Kardashian has four biological kids! Their names are Mason, Penelope, Reign, and Rocky. She shares her first three children with ex Scott Disick, and now shares Rocky her current husband, Travis Barker. Kourtney also appears to be very close to her step children, Landon and Alabama Barker.

What is Kourtney Kardashian's new baby's name?

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker announced the birth of their beautiful baby boy on December 22, 2023. His name is Rocky Thirteen Barker, which has a special meaning for Travis' father. Travis told Grazia Magazine that Rocky George was the guitarist for Suicidal Tendencies, and 13 is "just the greatest number of all time."

Will Kourtney Kardashian have a surrogate?

According to Daily Mail, Kourtney's pregnancy with Rocky wasn't easy, eventually ending up with a rush to the hospital for urgent fetal surgery. Because of how difficult (and likely traumatizing) that was, Kourtney and Travis have apparently decided to go with a surrogate for any future children they have.

Mason Dash Disick, 14

Mason Dash Disick, born on December 14, 2009, is Kourtney's first biological child. He's also the first grandchild of the Kardashian family, and his birth was actually filmed for Keeping Up With the Kardashians! His middle name might sound familiar, as it also belongs to the set of stores that Kourtney, Khloe, and Kim previously ran. "Dash" parallels their last name and simultaneously serves as a tribute to their late father's (Robert Kardashian) nickname.

Penelope Scotland Disick, 11

Penelope — often affectionately referred to as "P" — was born on July 8, 2012. She was also born on Keeping Up With the Kardashians and is very close with her famous cousin, North West. They post their hilarious antics all over TikTok, making us miss those childhood mems with our own cousins.

Reign Aston Disick, 9

Reign is Kourtney and Scott's youngest child, and he was born on the same day as his older brother Mason! He's nine years old, and seems to bring his big personality wherever he goes. You can find a lot of his goofiness all over Kourt's Instagram.

Rocky Thirteen Barker, 3 months

Image via Instagram/@kourtneykardash

Rocky Thirteen Barker is the latest addition to Kourtney Kardashian's kids! Kourtney was very open about her struggles with conceiving Rocky, as well as the complications that arose during her pregnancy. Thankfully, all worked out well, and now Rocky is living his best life with his parents and siblings!

How many kids does Travis Barker have?

Outside of Rocky, Travis Barker shares two biological with his ex-wife, Shanna Moakler. He also has a step-daughter named Atiana De La Hoya who he — and Kourtney — are very close with.

Travis Barker's shares his step daughter, Atiana De Le Hoya, with her mother Shanna Moakler. Atiana was born on March 29, 1999, and she's the eldest of the combined Barker-Kardashian clan. Atiana acts, and she recently starred in a thriller called Maya.

Landon Asher Barker, 20

Landon Barker was born on October 9, 2003, and is a musician — just like his dad! He's released a number of songs including "Trust" and "Holiday". In June of 2022, Landon began dating Internet celebrity and TikTok star, Charli D'Amelio. Sadly, in February of 2024, the two called it quits. They expressed that they're still friends and still have a lot of love left for one another.

Alabama Luella Barker, 18

Music must run in the family because Alabama Barker is a budding musician, too! She was born on December 24, 2005, while her family was starring in a reality show called Meet the Barkers. Today, she's still in the spotlight and is very active on TikTok. She posts a lot of her music across her platforms — which have collectively over 3 million followers!

Norman Mailer, I'm pregnant! This might be a memorable line from an equally memorable Gilmore Girls episode, but it's now also a reality for one of the show's stars because Milo Ventimiglia is expecting his first child! The actor married model and entrepreneur Jarah Mariano in the fall of 2023 at a tiny, private ceremony (a move that was very Jess Mariano of him), and on September 29, Jarah announced she's pregnant!

Milo Ventimiglia and Jarah Mariano just showed up at Brian Bowen Smith's ‘Joyride’ exhibit at Studio CT in California, and one source tells People Milo was “sweet and attentive to his wife throughout the whole event.” Duh!!

He “seemed very proud to be with her" while Jarah looked "radiant and glowing," as she always does. “Milo was kissing her and whispering into her ear," the source continues. "They were just genuinely lovely together.”

Is Jarah Mariano pregnant?

Jarah Mariano/Instagram

Yes, Jarah Mariano announced her pregnancy with an Instagram post featuring a surf session with Milo Ventimiglia. In the photos, Jarah is sitting on a surfboard wearing a brown bikini top, polka dot bikini bottoms, and a pink lei. "Baby on board!" she says in the caption.

After his time on Gilmore Girls, Milo played patriarch Jack Pearson on NBC's This Is Us, and told US Weekly in 2017 that "I think I’m built to want a strong family unit. “It will happen when it happens. I’m not out seeking it. It’s just kind of, I’m present in the space in my life that when it presents itself and it’s right, I’m sure it will work out.”

And it looks like it worked out at the exact right time.

Does Milo Ventimiglia have a wife?

Yes, Milo Ventimiglia & wife Jarah Mariano got married in the fall of 2023, and Jarah recently posted some new photos from the special day. "Last year I married my best friend," she says. "There aren’t enough words that exist to describe all the special qualities that make him who he is. AlI can say is that I am grateful for the life that we have together and the happiness that we have created🤍 Aloha wau iā 'oe my husband Milo."

"Things are good," Milo told Extra in February 2024. "We've had relationships that have come and have gone and then you get to a point where you kind of meet your match and meet someone that inspires you in a way different than anybody else...I'm grateful for her and I’m happy to have arrived in this moment, so married life is nice."
