If you have a smartphone or a tablet, there’s a good chance that you have mobile apps on it. For many, it’s the reason we buy the devices in the first place. Apps often give us near-PC functionality without having to lug around an “archaic” laptop or even a netbook. The industry, as can be seen in this infographic, is becoming monstrous.
Smartphones are in a constant state of connecting. Even when they aren’t necessarily “doing” anything, many of the apps sitting on the phone are trying to connect with this database or that information hub to get the data they need to work. In some cases, they’re attempting to get this information at all times.
There are millions of applications for your favorite iPhone gadget related to every field of your interest. It will not go in exaggeration that this company, Apple has really brought some great features, programs and applications that have been designed, especially for the scientists and inventors.
If you weren’t aware, apps are huge. Most small businesses are using them to some extent, even if they don’t realize it. We stay connected through our mobile devices, of course, but there are literally thousands of other ways that apps are helping small businesses grow and be manageable.
Apple’s latest patent application could add a whole new dimension to the exploding smartphone app market: Phone-to-Phone app sharing, with incentives. Now you will be able to get paid for forcing all your friends to download yet another version of angry birds! Plus with the extremely advanced graphics above to clearly explain how it all works, how can you not get excited!
Whether you are cooking the whole meal yourself or traveling to the dinner table “there is an app for that”. Thanksgiving can be extremely fun or extremely stressful, so to make sure you have more fun than stress, check out these 5 iPhone Apps that should make this holiday season much easier for you.
1. CHOW – This app literally takes you step by step through the entire Thanksgiving week. From recipes of Thanksgiving favorites, to a grocery list of everything to need, to a time line of your cooking schedule on the big day. It might even eat the meal for you, we are still waiting to hear back about that.
2. iFeast – Similar to CHOW in that it has recipes and suggestions and also a very detailed minute by minute plan for your turkey day. What separates this app from the other is it also has plans for Christmas dinner as well as just fancy dinners in general, so this is an app that will come in handy for all of your holiday parties.
It seems like there’s an app for everything these days. That said, there are plenty of apps out there that serve no real purpose other than to waste your time. Here’s a list of the most ridiculous iPhone apps I’ve ever seen.
1. iPint—Need a beer? Download one on your phone. Turn it up and gulp it down. Feeling refreshed? I didn’t think so. I guess giving the impression that you’re drinking beer from your phone could get a few laughs. But you’ll get sick of this nonsense pretty quick.
2. Drink Tracker—Maybe after you’ve guzzled down a few iPints you can download Drink Tracker to make sure you’re okay to drive home. Okay, okay—sure the idea behind this app is noble. Keep drunks off the road, right? But realistically, this will only get used at frat parties with “dudes” high fiving the highest BAC levels.
3. FatBurner2K—Got a beer belly from too many iPints? No worries. Just turn on FatBurner2K and place it on your gut. Feel the vibration shake the fat right off of you. You’ll shed those pounds in no time. No, really.
With over 150,000 third-party apps and over 3 billion downloads since July 2008, the app store is where its at. Well, just launched is the new app from mobilaga called “Dude, Your Car!”
The app lets you prank your friends into thinking their cars have been dented, windows broken, and otherwise totally annihilated. Which is way better than actually taking a crowbar to their bumpers. If you’re in the mood to scare your friends, this may be the most timely app ever.
BOTTOM LINE: April Fools Day is right around the corner and this app is cheap enough to get some good fun out of it.
