The Open Camera app by Mark Harman is a great alternative to the native Camera app on the OnePlus 15. It is one of the few camera apps on Android that let you shoot RAW images.

Additional features like auto-level, scene modes, voice countdown for timer, Bluetooth LE remote control, voice-controlled shutter, upside-down preview, and noise reduction make it one of the best camera apps around.

If you’re still keeping track of your passwords by scribbling them on a physical notepad, you need to upgrade to a password management app. LastPass is one of the best around.

Strong passwords can secure your accounts to an extent. With big data leaks becoming more frequent every passing year, a strong password should not be the only thing safeguarding access to your accounts and private information. Two-factor authentication adds an extra and unbeatable layer of security. The Google Authenticator app is perfect for this task. It is compatible with almost every platform that supports 2FA. It can summon unique 6-digit codes in an instant, ensuring that no one else but you can access your accounts.
