Favorite Apps

There are lots of apps available for in the Apple store and in the Google Play Store.  It is often difficult to determine which apps you need for your smart phone or for your tablet. Today I will discuss some of my favorite apps that I use on my iPhone and why I think they would be helpful for other baby boomers.

1.      AnyList https://www.anylistapp.com/AnyList is advertised as a grocery shopping list.  There is a free version and a yearly subscription option.  The paid version allows you to share your lists with other members of your household and to take photos of items. 

2.    IQNote https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/iqnote-my-quick-note-smart/id784426575?mt=8 or http://goo.gl/uxtNC2  IQNote allows you to take short notes by typing , taking a picture or creating an audio record.

3.    QRReader https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/qr-reader-for-iphone/id368494609?mt=8  or http://goo.gl/RBnTj.   There are versions for the iPad and Android devices. QR readers allow you to scan QR codes on items found at different types of stores.  The scan will take you to the website. 

4.    The Reminders app comes on your iPhone and iPad.  It is a great app to create reminders or use as an extra brain.  I will discuss another reminder/to do apps on another day.

5.     Google Maps is easy to use and helps someone like me who has no sense of direction.  I can use Google Maps on the computer and then send it to my phone.

These are only a few of my favorite apps.  I will discuss more apps on another post.  Have a Great Day.
