Shadowing Practice: 10 Apps - EVERYONE should use!!! - Learn English Speaking with Video

There are over 10 million apps out there, and I found 10 that are so useful.

You're going to want to start using them right now, starting with this one.

Okay, now I recommend everyone gets this app.

It's called Blip, and you can get it from the Play Store or the App Store.

And actually, make sure you also download this to another device, like your laptop or PC, and you can get it at blip .net.

Once you've got it installed, enter your email address on both your devices.

Then how it works is you can select a bunch of files or photos, documents, videos, anything, tap the share icon, Look for the blip icon with your other device's name,

tap on it and bubam, you have sent those files to it instantly.

Which is so awesome, but what's even better is if you tap

that search icon and type in the email address of anyone else using blip, like your friends, if you just tap on their name, then select photos or files, again, whatever it is you want to send,

and then click done, boom, it even sends to them, even if they're in a completely different location.

Meaning the other person or device doesn't need to be right next to you.

You can blip any files to any device from your house to your friend's house, or you can even send massive files to your work device,

and it'll automatically accept them no matter how big they are.

This all works by basically connecting any two Wi -Fi's together, and it is totally free, just so useful.

But definitely not as useful as the last app on my list, which basically gives you YouTube Premium for free.

But before I show you that, check out this next useful app.

Now this next app is called QR Alarm and see if you can guess what it does.

When you open it up you'll see there's not much there except the option to create an alarm.

But before we set that up you're going to need a QR code

and you can create one at qrcodeeditor .com then generate your own one it's super simple.

Now you're going to print that QR code and stick it up somewhere in your kitchen you'll see why in a sec.

Then you jump back into the QR Alarm app and create an alarm now.

You set it for whenever you wake up.

You can choose what days you want it to repeat and trust me, you will not need the snooze option so turn that off too.

Here's the final part.

You click on scan your own QR code then go ahead and scan the QR code you made earlier.

Click save and now check this out.

If you're a heavy sleeper and struggle to wake up, QR alarm will ring like a normal one but the only way to turn it off is if you actually get up,

walk to where you stuck that QR code and scan it.

That is the only way to turn off the alarm.

It is surprisingly useful if like me you have a gazillion alarms every morning.

But now that you're out of bed and awake you might want to try this useful app.

So this next app is basically if Google Maps had a baby with the weather app but with a twist.

It's called weather on the way and I wish I knew about this one sooner.

At first it kind of looks like a boring map app

but once you punch in where it is you want to go

and select it it doesn't just show you the route it

also shows you the weather along the route based on

when you'll actually be there uh wow there's this nifty little slider

that shows you how long the trip is going to take plus the weather

that you'll hit at each point based on the time you arrive

so it's literally like looking into the future on top of

that you get a timeline that lets you scroll ahead

and see exactly what the weather is going to be like depending on

when you leave there's a whole bunch other cool things as well like checking the precipitation, the wind or even the UV index.

You can also add stops along the way if you want to do

that and you can even change your form of transportation so whether that's driving, cycling or hiking.

Like that's extremely useful for any trip you want to take

but if you want a fun way to count down to that trip check this app out.

Now this is seriously something I wish all phones came with out the box.

This app is called countdown pretty progress.

Go ahead, give it a download, and when you open it up, the first thing you'll see is this option to create an event.

You've got a few different options to pick from, but if none of those work, click on give me an idea and you'll get a ton more.

Or if you want, you can choose any one of these and rename it yourself, like a mine.

Lol.

Okay, then once that's done, you're going to pick the dates you want to count down to, whether that's this year or next year, and you can even choose a specific time if you want.

But now here's the fun part, you can actually customize it.

So you can change the style of the font, you can change the colors, and once you're happy with everything, just tap on create event.

And after that, you just need to add the pretty progress widgets to your home screen, pick the countdown you just created.

You can also resize it if you want, very nifty.

And just like that, you've got the sick new widget that is constantly reminding you about that important date.

There's a few different styles you can choose from as well, depending on your wallpaper and your app icons.

But for some reason, the iPhone gets a few extra fun styles like this Windows one.

Very ironic.

But still cool though.

So now that you know how to do that, set a countdown timer for when the robots are going to take over because this next app...

The woman was too stunned to speak.

Now, let me tell you guys, if you install this app on any phone, it'll instantly turn into a super smartphone.

It's called Panda Automate with Voice.

And let me just show you what it does.

When you open it up for the first time, you've got to log in with your email and give it permission to a bunch of things.

Like, I'm honestly surprised it didn't ask for a blood sample.

But anyway, let me show you why it needs all that access.

Once you've done everything, when you tap on this triangle it activates it

and then you can ask it for anything like open YouTube find a tips

and tricks video on the Samsung s25 ultra

and select the first one then give it a few seconds

and bam sure I'll open YouTube search for Samsung s25 ultra tips

and tricks and play the first video for you task completed successfully

so cool you can also tap and hold the side key to activate it

and also ask it to do something straight from here, like open the camera and start recording a video.

Sure.

I'm opening the camera, switching to video, setting the zoom to 3x, and starting the recording for you.

Task completed successfully.

Okay, that's pretty freaking crazy.

But what's even crazier is we got tech like this before we got GTA 6.

Come on.

I mean, sure, you are giving a robot full control over your phone, but is it going to take over the world?

Well, not unless you're using this next app.

So I've actually recommended this app before, but it is so useful, I gotta recommend it again.

It's Surfshark, and yes, you've probably heard about its VPN already, but have you heard about their new features?

Because they're actually super nifty.

Okay, so right off the bat, at the very top, you've got the obvious one, the VPN, which you can basically use to watch free movies and series on Tubi anywhere in the world,

unlock the entire Netflix library, and most importantly, browser internet without anyone ever knowing what you're searching for.

But here's what's new.

There's now an antivirus that if you turn on, you basically become unhackable.

Wow.

You've also got data leak alerts, which lets you know if your emails, your credit cards, or identification ever gets leaked and falls into the wrong hands.

100

And you can actually prevent that with a new alternative ID feature.

101

So this creates a fake email, a fake address, fake name, you name it, and you can then use that online to protect your real info, which is so useful.

102

And to top it all off, there's even this new incognito search browser in here that's probably safer than using Chrome.

103

So yeah, this isn't just a VPN anymore.

104

So if you want to stay safe, then head to surfshark .com forward slash hails or use code hails at checkout for four extra months of Surfshark VPN.

105

But if you want to get focused, then check this out.

106

All right, so this app actually went viral not too long ago.

107

It's called Focus Friends, and it's actually kind of addictive.

108

You start by giving your bean a name.

109

I'll explain what that is in a sec.

110

I just went with Mr. Bean, of course, but you can pick anything.

111

And once that's done, this is your bean, and this is your bean's home.

112

So what now?

113

Well, when you tap on Focus and set a timer for something like 60 minutes and turn on Deep Focus, as soon as you hit start, but your bean starts knitting socks.

114

And here's the catch.

115

If you leave the Focus Friends app to open a social media app like TikTok or Instagram, you actually get a warning and it won't open the app.

116

The only way to open it is to go back into Focus Friends and stop your bean from knitting.

117

But if you do that, the socks it knitted will get ruined.

118

And if they're ruined, you cannot use them to upgrade your beans home from this to something like this.

119

Yeah.

120

And that's basically the whole app so it stops you from doom scrolling

121

so you can focus on whatever it is you're doing

122

and then it pays you in socks to upgrade

123

and customize your beans home just like i've done for my little mr bean why is it a bean

124

and why is it knitting socks i don't know

125

but it really is a fun way to save time

126

and now that you've got all

127

that time why not use it on this next app so

128

if you have ever tried to cook something then you need this app.

129

It's called D -Glaze.

130

Give it a download then open it up and sign in with your email.

131

And now check this out.

132

Next time you're on socials and not knitting socks.

133

If you find a recipe

134

that looks good tap the share icon then share to find the D -Glaze app

135

and once you select it click this add to your library.

136

Now this is where the app gets so useful.

137

Inside it if you tap that little book icon voila your Instagram video recipe is saved as an actual recipe.

138

There's a title, there's a list of ingredients, and even instructions on how to make it.

139

You can then click start cooking and it'll show you every ingredient so you can check them off, plus the instructions.

140

And if you ever get stuck, you can always jump back and watch the video.

141

There are actually a bunch of other apps out there like this, but...

142

They're all super expensive and this one's basically for you.

143

So yeah, that's basically how you can hack your clicking.

144

But here's how you can hack something even better.

145

Okay, now this is such a cool app.

146

I've got this frame right and to make sure it's leveled, I just opened up my quick settings panel, turned on the secret bubble leveler and done.

147

Easy peasy.

148

I even have an SOS controller that uses my flash.

149

I have a coin flip controller plus a dice roll controller and a bunch of other tools.

150

And if you're wondering how to get this, it's from a secret app called Toolkit Tiles.

151

And the reason it's secret is because it's not actually on the Play Store.

152

But to get it, it's super simple.

153

You go inside your settings and look for Google Play Protect.

154

Open this app, then select the settings icon, toggle it off, choose pause, and don't worry, this is actually safe.

155

Then next you're going to head to this website.

156

And don't worry, there's a link in the description scroll down to the bottom

157

and under assets download this apk then install it

158

and once that's done go to your quick settings panel tap the edit icon add a new control

159

and verb bam you'll see a bunch of new controls here

160

like the coin flip the dice the leveler there's even a compass option

161

and a screenshot option just so useful am i right

162

so that's how you hack your quick settings panel but what if you could hack youtube

163

now youtube if you're listening take notes

164

because this app is nuts it's called youtube advanced

165

and it looks like normal youtube and some of you may have heard of it

166

but it's basically youtube premium on steroids like for free like

167

there's literally zero ads completely gone the dislike button is back

168

you can play youtube videos with your screen off whoa and a bunch of other awesome features like this.

169

I mean, that's pretty freaking crazy, but there is a catch.

170

It's kind of really hard to get, so prepare yourself.

171

First off, you're not going to find it in the Play Store, obviously.

172

The only way to get it is through this website.

173

Again, link in the description, but in here, you've got to download something called Revanced Manager.

174

Once it's downloaded, install it, then open it up and give it permissions.

175

Luckily, nothing too insane, no blood sample or anything.

176

Then once it's all done you're going to go into the patcher.

177

Tap select an app, choose this version of YouTube.

178

It'll then prompt you to follow a link.

179

Go ahead follow the link and tap this first option.

180

In here will be another APK.

181

Go ahead download that and then head back to the revanced manager.

182

Now you're going to select YouTube again, select from storage and choose the one you just downloaded.

183

Then click on patch.

184

It'll do its thing and stick with me here once the install button pops up.

185

Hit install and you're done.

186

Now you've got a clone of YouTube, but this one's called YouTube Revanced and you can use it instead of the normal YouTube app,

187

except remember it is totally ad -free with a bunch of cool features.

188

Told you it was difficult, but so worth it.

189

So now that I've shown you 10 super useful apps, make sure you hit the subscribe button because we're on the road to 3 million.

190

And if you want to see some more app videos, you can check out these, but I'll see you in the next one.

Toodles!

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
