Four Kinds Of Apps Everyone Should Have On Their Phone

There is something of a - slightly snobbish - tendency to assume the worst of someone who frequently has their phone in their hand. Either they must be addicted to social media, or they’re texting someone, or it is for some other “bad” reason. However, this is deeply unfair, considering just how pivotal phones are to a human life these days. That person with their phone in their hand could, just as easily, be doing tomorrow’s grocery shopping, paying their bills, making a doctor’s appointment, ...
