I doubt you'll find any newer apps that you can install and run on your Windows phone. It's a shame that MS gave up on their phones so easily. They were the best phones I ever owned.

Unless this request is for some retro experiment, I'd follow the advice of getting a new phone. Windows phones are very outdated while very good, strong, and usable still, they lack all the latest security patches. You dont want to get hacked. Also certain services won't even allow the use of outdated Windows Phone apps on their servers for security reasons.

So yeah, you're very limited in what you can use on your outdated phone.
