What App Can You Not Live Without?

[gemz4the1]

Apart from the standard apps which come with most phones (messages, calendar, calculator) what app can you not live without? What is the app that you have to use at least once a day?

I have to admit, although I claim not to be a Facebook or Twitter addict, I have to at least check them everyday.

I also like to keep up-to-date with the news so if I don't go on the news websites on the computer then I check the news apps on my phone.

In contrast, the one app that I will never use is the stocks app.

Has anyone experiemtned with Google GOGGLES - it is a super app you can use to identify buildings, artworks etc.  If you see a  photo of a famous landmark or building say - using GOGGLES you scan it and it tries to identify it for you.  For instance I saw a photo of Daniel Craig that I knew was a still from one of his films. I scanned it and within a few seconds the correct identification was displayed.  Highly recommended.

@Anonymousis that also available for iOS? Never heard of it before...

I can't live without

- Whatsapp

- Threema (a secure IM-App)

- Facebook (-Messenger)

- Springfield (Simpson's game)

- Movies Pro (a list of all the dvd's/blurays you own... You just have to scan it. Very useful if you don't know for sure if you already own a disc)

Hi @ComaChameleon 

Not sure if this answers your question:-

Google Goggles is currently available for the following devices:

• Android devices running Android 2.2 and above can download Goggles from Google Play . To see which version of Android you're running, go to Settings > About phone > Android version.
• iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 devices with the Google Search App.

Just discovered over the past few days how difficult life can be without  wifi access to Google Search and Google App Play Store.  Thankfully all systems restored and back to normal but it has taught me just how dependent one can become on certain services.

Some very different and interesting apps.

I like whatsapp too. I think a lot of people use apps to send pictures now rather than sending them as MMS.

Very true Gemz

One of the suggestions I always make when someone is trying to find out how to use MMS and don't perhaps know the cost of each one.
