Apps From My Phone To Yours

Let me start you of with a warning, i am a little, or i should really say more then a little app crazy.  Most people first reaction when they see my phone is shock. and then they wonder, do you really use all of them? The answer is YES.

IFTTT (If this then that)
Im sure at one time in life we wished we could be in two places at once; well IFTTT helps you do that.

This application allows you to put some of your online activity on autopilot. This isn't an app that does it all for your of course, it is more like a tool that ensures you don't miss anything.

IFTTT is like an online assistant.

Here are some examples of what i use the applications for.

If i star an email then add the subject of the email to my reminder. I use this so that i remember to reply or do whatever it is that is in that email.
If I take a picture then upload that image to my Google Drive.
If i post an image on my Instagram then make it my phone homepage background.

Digg


Digg is a social news website. The name comes from the idea that people 'digg' articles they agree with and 'bury' articles they don't agree with.

The users have an option of reading articles in the popular section with a lot of digs, or they can look at the articles in the upcoming section. The upcoming section are new articles that have not received enough digs to make it to the popular listing.

The reason why i like this app is because the articles we see on newspapers and magazines are controlled by the media. They decide what goes on the front page and so on. Dig allows society to control what we see. We get to decide what is news worthy.

Beep'nGo

This is an app i have recently downloaded. 
Beep'nGo is very useful if you don't like carrying around all the cards you get from stores. You scan the cards you have, the application stores the information on your phone and you then use it on the go. It is all in the name.

These are the top three apps i would recommend to you that you may not know about. If i come across any others i shall put up a quick review.

I have also listed all the apps that i use.
