I've been using Moment to track my smartphone usage. I keep the time I spend on my phone to under an hour and a half per day with mostly work applications and emails. You don't realize how much time you waste on your phone, and this was a huge wake up call for me.

Whatsapp. The most important. Unless you don't travel outside the US where no one has the foggiest idea what it is.

Skyscanner for ticket prices.

Accuweather. Knowing weather forecasts is pretty handy.

XE for currency rates.

This app finds all the other Jews in your area so you can have a meetup.

Or it can tell you just how Jewish you are based on your name.

HERE Maps

I can download the map of an entire country for use later so I can store the addresses of bars and nightclubs to roll in and get there via real time GPS coordinates.

Mobile data is only needed if you want up to date public transport information.

I live outside of US and almost everyone in my address book has Whatsapp.

I think you should travel more outside of US before making such conclusive statements.

I'm not sure how good directions are with HERE maps but you can also do this with google maps. Downloaded maps expire after a month.

Pardon me for living perhaps it wasn't clear. That meaning inside the usa no one knows what it is while the rest of the world does. Maybe you should check my countries visited list before you make such conclusive statements. I travel quite a bit thanks.

Ok, I see your point now, by the way you wrote it is hard to tell whether the object of your sentence is "US" or "outside the US".

What the hell

We need to code and design an app for SpectrumWalker, an app protecting against triple-posting or even drunk-posting.

How would we call it though? NoTripl? SinglCom? DrunkNoMore? BoozNpost?

Anyway, one app if you go to Cuba is, imho messaging. For some reason Cubans use this app.

Myfitnesspal was great for the 3 months I was cutting. Great app for counting calories and macros.

Can anyone make a recommendation for a good music player and a good video player for my computer? I used to use Winamp for music and VLC for video, but both of them seem old and slow now.
