Re: Fav Free Phone Apps
I sent this list to Tania back when she got hers:
My top most used are:
(arranged by the folders I have them in)
*On my homescreen:
- The Weather Channel
- Google Voice (if you go to voice.google.com you can sign up for a free phone number to forward where ever. It's completely free texting AND you can text for free through this Google Voice app. AMAZING!)
- Starbucks (entire menu, drink creator WITH calories/macro nutrient info, finds Starbucks around you!! Haha
- Pinterest
*Accounts Folder*
- Mint.com - finance app
- PageOnce - You can set it up to remind you when your bills are due
- MyWireless - AT&T app that will show you your usage info and you can pay your pill by just clicking a button. LOVE how easy it makes it.
*Blogging Folder*
- Wordpress - free app to blog on the road. I rarely use it, but it's good to have. Blogger makes one, too.
- MobileRSS - A free feed reader. It's OK.
- Feedly - The best feed reader ever made. Imports right from your google reader, makes it pretty to read and displays everything really nicely. It's like a dollar, but the features and organization make it so worth it!
*Food Folder*

*Health Folder*
- WebMD - basically, I'm a geek.

*Lifestyle/Entertainment Folder*
- Fandango - buy movie tickets right from your phone.
*Music Folder(
- Shazam - Know when you hear a song on the radio and want to know what it is or who sings it? This app "listens" to a few seconds of it and tells you what it is!
- Pandora Radio - Streams radio from your phone. I plug it in to my radio/MP3 in my car and stream it all the time. Free satellite radio!
- Spotify
*Photo Folder*
- Flickr - great app for Flickr
- Shutterfly - same thing
- Instagram - one of my fav apps, photo sharing.
