Instagram's 23 filters not enough? Infltr has infinity filters! (Sort of: 5 million, actually.) The app lets you shoot in a filter, and you simply tap the screen to change to a new one. If you enjoy swiping through all of a photo app's options to decided on the perfect choice, you might become overwhelmed by Infltr's 5 millions of filters. But there's something refreshing about using an overlay you haven't seen before. It will certainly break you out of your Mayfair dependency.

You might think that Kanye has two modes (shrug and stone-faced), but Yemoji proves there is a Kanye expression for nearly every situation. Surprised Ye, sad Ye, angry Ye—it's all there. If we could get a hair toss Ye, then it would really round things out.
Venmo is easily one of the best unintended social networks on the Internet. Scroll through the public feed of transactions sometime if you want to be simultaneously amused and terrified. Now Venmo is beta testing a groups feature, so you can easily pay for things with your friends using fun/lewd emoji in the description field.
