Sony started the whole water-proof smartphone trend with their Xperia Z smartphone, but truth be told, you can't really do much except take videos and pictures underwater. Well, now you can do something else as Sony release their new Underwater Apps for the Sony Xperia Z and Xperia Z1 smartphones, and even then, they must be from the US region. Most of the apps don't do much except to showcase your waterproof smartphone but the Goldie, Photo Lab, Plantimal, Sink Sunk, Rainy-oke and Tiny Umbrella do let you show it off a bit more. The only functional app to us would be the Sink Sunk app for those of you who'd like to play a game while scuba diving. As it is, Sony has opened it up to developers so we might see some useful underwater apps in the near future. No news when non-US Xperia Z and Xperia Z1 smartphones may get access but we'll let you know as soon as we find out.
Goldie lets you keep an interactive pet goldfish that gasps for air when it isn't in the water.
Photo Lab lets you develop photos darkroom style
Plantimal is another interactive pet, this time with an underwater plant + animal creature that sprouts when you water it.
Sink Sunk let's you play with your submarine underwater
Get water-proof lyrics with Rainy-oke
See how much rain you can stop with this Tiny Umbrella
