Favorite apps

In this post, Blue Door Consulting's Heidi Strand asks for recommendations of apps that improve your life ...

Everyone has their tried-and-true apps; the ones they check frequently or rely on daily. Mine? BBC News, Pandora, iBooks, among a few others. But, the list is small. Even after hours and hours of restless searching, I'm at a loss and faced with a dilemma I'm hoping readers can assist with ...

What apps are truly worth paying for and downloading?

According to the study, created by Chetan Sharma Consulting, mobile app downloads are anticipated to reach almost 50 billion in 2012. Apple promotes it offers more than 500,000 in its store alone.

So, with all the choices available, which ones are truly beneficial? Call me pragmatic, but games simply don't cut it for me.

I want apps that improve my productivity, help me live life more fully and provide a purpose that is clearly value-added.

So, I'm reaching out to Blue Door Consulting's readership and asking the question:

What apps improve your life and why?


Please let me know and I'll check them out! Thanks.

  1. I use an app for tracking my grocery list (so I can update it when I come across a new recipe or I'm in the pantry and realize that I need to buy _______). It also lets my husband add things to the list too which is helpful if you're shopping for more than one.

    I also bought a "check list" app that I use to make lists. I can even store the list for things that we do more than once (like travel) so I don't have to remember or spend time thinking of all the things I need to pack.

  3. It's free, not paid, but Flipboard has become my favorite tablet app. It pulls in feeds from Facebook, Twitter, Google Reader, etc. and displays them in a magazine style format. Also, staples for me on any mobile device is a remote PC access app (LogMeIn, TeamViewer).
