App Essentials for your Phone

Phones are more than just phones, these days. They’re our connection to the outside world, to friends and family that live far away from us, a tool for work, hobbies, and even entertainment that most of us wouldn’t want to be without now. One of the main things that make mobile devices as versatile as they are is the sheer amount of apps you can get on them! While, of course, there are more app stores than the Apple App Store and Google Play, since the majority of people have either an iPhone or an Android device, these are what we’re going to talk about today.

Here are some great app essentials for your phone.

App Essentials for your Phone

A Dedicated Email Client 

For most of us, the stock email client that comes pre-installed on your phone just doesn’t cut it. They’re often clunky, difficult to use and don’t have all the features we’d like them to have. Two of our favourite email clients that we love to use are the dedicated Gmail app, and Outlook. Both of which offer more features than the stock mail client, and are a great way to keep organised if you do a lot of work by email, or that’s your main method of staying in touch with people.

A Note Taker

Google Keep is a fantastic option for taking notes, and a great option to install on your phone and various other devices. Unlike the pre-installed notes option on most phones, it syncs throughout all the devices you’ve got that you have Google Keep installed and signed in on, which makes it a handy tool for work notes, or project notes that you’re going to need on multiple devices.

All Your Favourite Social Media Networks

Most of us are avid social media users these days, and often websites such as Facebook are the primary way we keep in touch with friends and family and stay up to date on their lives. Having your social media networks installed and signed in on your phone means you’ve always got that method of communication ready to go, and some entertainment for those long commutes. Speaking of entertainment…

Entertainment

One of the things we use our mobile phones for a lot these days is entertainment, and having a few apps installed to help that along never goes amiss! Things like Spotify, YouTube and Netflix go down a treat with most people, take up very little space and provide entertainment for on the go.
