What is it: a newsreader app
Why we love it: If you’re in the market for a free newsreader, you may want to give LeadStory a look. This new app is minimal but well-designed, with all the features you need to keep up with what’s going on in the world. LeadStory has advanced personalization and customization features to bring you the stories that interest you the most and a helpful Live Tile that displays the latest top story.

What is it: an app to find service providers
Why we love it: Need a plumber, tax pro, babysitter, or other service provider? Finding the right person for the job can get a bit messy, and no one wants to spend their time sifting through reviews from strangers. Well, the problem has been solved. Home Team lets you find out who your friends trust for hire and share your own favorite recommendations. The free app from Microsoft Garage also lets you import contact details for all of your current service professionals. For more information on Home Team, check out our announcement post here.

What is it: a mobile banking app
Why we love it: We’ve been seeing many new mobile banking apps join the Windows Phone Store each week, and each one makes us smile. This week one of Ireland’s major banks, Ulster Bank, released its own app. Features include the usual handy banking help, such as the ability to get cash from your account without using your debit card, bill paying, money transfer, balance check, a branch and cash machine locator, and more.
Who it’s perfect for: anyone who banks with Ulster Bank

What is it: an image editing app
Why we love it: PicsArt is wildly popular, and for good reason. This feature-packed photo editing app has everything you need to create fun digital projects. Hundreds of editing tools, filters, effects, overlays, and brushes let you do just about anything that you can dream up. To top it off, PicsArt is also home to a blossoming social community where art lovers can share, collaborate, and compete in contests. So what’s new? Now you can save JPEG and BMP, and several new effects are available for your artistic pleasure.
Who it’s perfect for: creatives and artists

What is it: a video sharing service
Why we love it: If you prefer your entertainment to come in the form of six-second video loops, you’ll be happy to hear that Vine has recently received a few new features in its latest update. Now you can show love to your favorite Vine stars even quicker with the new double tap to like feature and find new Viners to follow using the Find People feature.
