Funny Pictures 2.6.0.0

Enjoy the most hilarious pics from a variety of online resources brought right onto your phone
Every once in a while most people take a short break form work to relax and unwind a bit and one of the favorite pastimes is looking for fun photos that come in heaps all across the Internet.

For those who want to take a break from their computer and still get their laughs on, having an application like Funny Pictures installed onto the Windows Phone handset could be the right choice.

Uncomplicated GUI for quickly browsing stacks of fun pics

The interface of this application is as simple as it gets, with a minimalistic look and a simple organization of the content into two main categories for fast access to the humorous content. The ad banners are a nuisance that will follow you in every section of the app.

The image quality is pretty much the same you would get if you opened the website, but in some cases the photos cannot be displayed and you will end up with a (possibly) funny caption displayed above or below a blank space.

Keep calm and carry on scrolling through the funnies

There is no search function inside Funny Pictures, so you will have to go through the myriads of photos one at a time. The two sections, "Newest" and "Classics" are enough to keep you amused for hours on end and you can keep the images you like the most by pressing the "Save" button from the menu placed in the lower part of the screen.

Sharing the content is also an option you have close at hand and this application supports several ways of sending the fun photos, either through an SMS message or via email. You can also post links to the funnies onto your Facebook or Twitter accounts.

Hits & Misses

hits

  • uses can save the pictures onto their phone with one tap
  • supports several ways of sharing the content

  • too few categories for organizing the content
  • for no good reason needs access in restricted areas of the system
Bottom Line
Design / UI5
 

The uninspired design of the application is made worse by the presence of some irritating adverts that are quite disruptive at times. Luckily, browsing the content is fairly smooth.

Function4
 

There are plenty of pictures inside this app that will make you laugh out loud, but sometimes a sudden crash will wipe the smile off your face. It's a good thing you can save the pics and share them with friends.

Security7
 

There are quite a few permissions this app requires and they pertain to locations it shouldn't be looking into, like the phone dialer or the owner and phone identities.

Battery8
 

Displaying loads of online pics and fetching new content regularly requires a bit of battery juice and thus the app has a moderate power consumption.

Price7
 

This utility is good for having a few laughs and perhaps keeping a picture or two, but there are other apps with more categories, search options and other features that are more worth taking the time to install and try.

Compatibility9
 

Most Windows Phone users can give this app a go as it only needs version 7.5 and above of the operating system to function properly.

Editor's Review
GOOD

Definitely funny, but hardly worth keeping for good
