Six apps we couldn’t live without

A few years ago, the most popular apps were casually addictive games that provided us with entertainment during our daily commute. Now there is a whole new generation of them that are influencing our offline life more and more each day. Here is a list of six of the apps we couldn’t possibly live without today.

[A] Venmo Venmo is a free app that allows you to exchange payments with people you know via your smartphone, linking to your Facebook friends and email contacts, as well as your bank. Opt to give someone enough trust and they can withdraw money directly from your account, through the app. You can also build up a pile of cash in your Venmo account, so that next time you head out to dinner with friends, it’s fairly easy to split the bill or pay someone back.
[B] Instagram When it comes to sharing photos through
our phones, most people prefer Instagram, the app bought by Facebook for $1 billion in late 2012. With 150 million monthly active users sharing 16 billion photos a day, Instagram has added a feature that gives users more control over who sees their photos. Instead of posting a photo to your entire network, you can send it to between one and 15 people, preventing strangers from viewing your pics without your knowledge.
[C] Tinder This matchmaking app lets users trawl through photos of other singles on their smartphone, swiping the ones they like to the right and those they don’t to the left. If two people swipe each other to the right, Tinder notifies them of their ‘match’. Tinder is reportedly used by more than one per cent of the population in some countries and it has been suggested that the kids of the future will ask their parents which app they met in.
[D] Uber Uber is a car-for-hire app that finds a driver within your area and, assuming you’re in a metropolis, can often send it to your doorstep within minutes. It was named tech company of the year in 2013 because of the changes it was likely to bring to our lives. Since then, however, transport authorities have accused the company of operating an illegal taxi service, and legal action has been threatened.
[E] Waze This was the first app to successfully build up an enormous databank of maps and traffic reports through crowdsourcing. Waze has succeeded in creating a highly accurate navigation service by tracking the GPS coordinates of its users. It also diverts them away from built-up traffic when enough of them report in that they’re stuck in a jam.
[F] WhatsApp WhatsApp was the first of the messaging apps to offer a free texting service that synched with your mobile number and address book so that you didn’t have to register with a username. Founded in 2009, it now has 400 million active users to whom it charges a minimal annual subscription after one free year. The app’s main advantage is that it can be used to avoid expensive texting charges when communicating with friends and colleagues overseas.

our phones, most people prefer Instagram, the app bought by Facebook for $1 billion in late 2012. With 150 million monthly active users sharing 16 billion photos a day, Instagram has added a feature that gives users more control over who sees their photos.

[C] Tinder This matchmaking app lets users trawl through photos of other singles on their smartphone, swiping the ones they like to the right and those they don’t to the left. If two people swipe each other to the right, Tinder notifies them of their ‘match’. Tinder is reportedly used by more than one per cent of the population in some countries and it has been suggested that the kids of the future will ask their parents which app they met in.
[D] Uber Uber is a car-for-hire app that finds a driver within your area and, assuming you’re in a metropolis, can often send it to your doorstep within minutes. It was named tech company of the year in 2013 because of the changes it was likely to bring to our lives. Since then, however, transport authorities have accused the company of operating an illegal taxi service, and legal action has been threatened.
[E] Waze This was the first app to successfully build up an enormous databank of maps and traffic reports through crowdsourcing. Waze has succeeded in creating a highly accurate navigation service by tracking the GPS coordinates of its users. It also diverts them away from built-up traffic when enough of them report in that they’re stuck in a jam.
[F] WhatsApp WhatsApp was the first of the messaging apps to offer a free texting service that synched with your mobile number and address book so that you didn’t have to register with a username. Founded in 2009, it now has 400 million active users to whom it charges a minimal annual subscription after one free year. The app’s main advantage is that it can be used to avoid expensive texting charges when communicating with friends and colleagues overseas.

[D] Uber Uber is a car-for-hire app that finds a driver within your area and, assuming you’re in a metropolis, can often send it to your doorstep within minutes. It was named tech company of the year in 2013 because of the changes it was likely to bring to our lives. Since then, however, transport authorities have accused the company of operating an illegal taxi service, and legal action has been threatened.
[E] Waze This was the first app to successfully build up an enormous databank of maps and traffic reports through crowdsourcing. Waze has succeeded in creating a highly accurate navigation service by tracking the GPS coordinates of its users. It also diverts them away from built-up traffic when enough of them report in that they’re stuck in a jam.
[F] WhatsApp WhatsApp was the first of the messaging apps to offer a free texting service that synched with your mobile number and address book so that you didn’t have to register with a username. Founded in 2009, it now has 400 million active users to whom it charges a minimal annual subscription after one free year. The app’s main advantage is that it can be used to avoid expensive texting charges when communicating with friends and colleagues overseas.

Six apps we couldn’t live without

A few years ago, the most popular apps were casually addictive games that provided us with entertainment during our daily commute. Now there is a whole new generation of them that are influencing our offline life more and more each day. Here is a list of six of the apps we couldn’t possibly live without today.

[A] Venmo Venmo is a free app that allows you to exchange payments with people you know via your smartphone, linking to your Facebook friends and email contacts, as well as your bank. Opt to give someone enough trust and they can withdraw money directly from your account, through the app. You can also build up a pile of cash in your Venmo account, so that next time you head out to dinner with friends, it’s fairly easy to split the bill or pay someone back.
[B] Instagram When it comes to sharing photos through
our phones, most people prefer Instagram, the app bought by Facebook for $1 billion in late 2012. With 150 million monthly active users sharing 16 billion photos a day, Instagram has added a feature that gives users more control over who sees their photos. Instead of posting a photo to your entire network, you can send it to between one and 15 people, preventing strangers from viewing your pics without your knowledge.
[C] Tinder This matchmaking app lets users trawl through photos of other singles on their smartphone, swiping the ones they like to the right and those they don’t to the left. If two people swipe each other to the right, Tinder notifies them of their ‘match’. Tinder is reportedly used by more than one per cent of the population in some countries and it has been suggested that the kids of the future will ask their parents which app they met in.
[D] Uber Uber is a car-for-hire app that finds a driver within your area and, assuming you’re in a metropolis, can often send it to your doorstep within minutes. It was named tech company of the year in 2013 because of the changes it was likely to bring to our lives.
