What is your essential go to app?

With the advance of technology, our lives today are much easier thanks to it. We can use Acorns as a way to invest our spare change, livescore to check on the latest sports results, Yelp to find out the review of a place and the list goes on.

Even paying our bills are much easier these days, all with the touch of a button on our phone.

Which is your go to app which you use everyday? (Not the generic WhatsApp/Mail app, but something which you think not everyone here would have heard of before)

Mine would be Flipboard because it is where all my latest updates from social media or news outlet are compressed into one magazine tho the ease of communicating with my peers on Slack for project discussion makes it a close second.

I am looking for a good podcast app.. Does it let you speed up the podcast playback?

Overcast for iOS
MM IB -> Corporate Development -> Strategic Finance
 

In no particular order:

GroupMe MyFitnessPal Spotify Dropbox

I'm a steady Mint user as well, but mostly on a laptop. The mobile version isn't as functional.

 

Dude, seriously these app games are insane these days. I hadn't played a videogame since 2012, but then started playing madden mobile. Shits so addicting, it's all I do on the train now. It's like playing madden on PS2...

Transit, because it makes it really easy to see when the next bus is coming.

Youtube, banking, and email apps haha. My iphone 5s IOS hasn't been updated in 2 years so I had to put youtube.com as a bookmark app thing and now it works great. Also can play music while not using it unlike how it is now with the youtube app.
