I’ve spent a lot of time downloading and deleting apps that didn’t work for me and my lifestyle. I don’t want you to waste as much time as me, so I’m going to share my favorite apps. Granted, not all of them are for blogging and God, but that’s okay. Here are all of the apps currently on my phone (aside from the ones predownloaded).
- Facebook. I hate this social site and I know I just made an entire post about deleting it, but I found that it’s really hard to be a journalist without it.
- Facebook Messenger
- Instagram. My favorite social site.
- Gmail
- CrowdRise. This is the app I’m using to track the donations for my running 200 miles for charity.
- Vanido. I just downloaded this, an app to practice singing.
- Felt Cards. Guys, you have to check this one out! Cheap, good quality cards to send to loved ones? Yes please.
- Etsy
- Instagram Layout
- ColorStory. Both this and #13 I use to minimally edit my photos before they go on social media.
- Afterlight
- Podcasts
- iMovie
- YouTube
- Hurdlr. As a freelancer, I needed a free app that lets me keep track of income and expenses.
- Google Drive
- Werdsmith. If inspiration strikes, I open this app up and type to my hearts content.
- WordPress. I’m using this right now!
- Canva. How I make all graphics for my blog, including my logo!
- Ibotta. I’ve gotten $25 back by using this app for grocery shopping in the past year. Here’s my referral link if your interested in this free grocery app.
- Goodreads. Keeping track of all the books I read.
- Walmart. If you shop at Walmart, you scan your receipts, right?
- Pokémon Go. My husband’s guilty pleasure. I catch the cute ones.
- Pandora. What I listen to when I write.
- LeapSecond. Once second videos every day is so cool!
- Rules of Survival. I’m not a big game person, but this surprisingly was enjoyable. Honestly, I’ll probably delete it soon.
- NBC. When I miss This Is Us, this is how I catch up.
- Netflix
- Spectrum. Just another way I watch tv
- Sworkit Stretching. A great stretching app I use before my workouts.
- Fitbit
- Nike Run Club
- Calm. My favorite relaxation app, but with a hefty price tag.
- P Tracker
- Happy Scale. A weight app that notices fluctuations in your weight and possible reasons why.
- Fooducate. Scan your food & it rates it, giving insight to what those mispronounced ingredients really are.
- Yoga Studio. I got lucky on this one. Years ago I bought this for a few dollars and now, you have to pay a monthly membership. But I got grandfathered in.
- Holy Bible
- MissionHub. This is an interesting one! Keeps tracks of names of friends and such to encourage you to reach out and fellowship/evangelize.
- Perspective Cards. A great, easy way to teach Christianity to people. We used it a lot in Cru.
- God Tools. Another Cru tool with info about Christianity.
I’d love to hear your app recommendations!
