Call It App-volution or App-nia
Today we all carry smart phones wherein games, communication, shopping and banking apps are widely used. Why not make your smart phones, smarter (as quoted in popular advertisement). No, I am not hinting towards another shopping or banking app. Here’s introducing my list of 5 Must have Apps for Everyone. Let’s take a quick tour of it.
  1. The Food App: Come on !! Food is the basic necessity; you got to have an app for it. So pick your choice of app for preparing food; my personal favorite Tarla Dalal app and VahRehVah app (friend’s recommendation for all rice recipes). If you don’t want to cook, simply get a food ordering app: Food Panda, Tasty Khana or find out if your favorite restaurant or outlet has its own app it may come handy.
  2. The Health Meter App: Talking of food, you need something to keep you in check. That’s when the Health Meter App comes into picture: Calorie Counter, My weight Tracker etc. Also the importance of being hydrated is well known so, get yourself a “Water Your Body” App. Specially for females, there is “My Calendar” app that helps you track menstruation cycle and many more features inbuilt , so go explore. Also for married couples planning for a baby, might find “Get Baby” App useful.
  3. Recharge and Much more Apps: Since we all are addicted to mobiles the recharge or bill payments are a must. No worries cause we have a range of apps which will not only do the needful for you but will also give you some amazing cash back or card payment offers. Recommended Apps: MobiKwik, Paytm etc.
  4. The List App: There always something you need to buy or do. So get the “Shopping List” app for your daily shopping or monthly grocery shopping. This can be used in conjunction with Bar code Scanner- Voila! What else can you ask for? If grocery or daily shopping is not what you do, get a “ToDo” app to prioritize your list of tasks for the day.
  5.  Money Tracker App: We all know the importance of keeping daily accounts but it is kind of boring to write it down in a small dairy every single day. So get an app which you can use to update your daily expenses while traveling back home. Plus the best part is, it comes with a security lock so your expenses and income calculations are safe and restricted only for you to view. Recommended App: Daily Expenses. 
    While there are many more apps with a lot of categories such as options for music, fun (Dubsmash),  entertainment (BookmyShow) and  etc., I would recommend these to you. 

Go find the App that best suits YOU.
