Apps for Savvy Gals and Guys!!

Once, every few months, we’ll start deleting all those apps we rarely use. The clutter on our phones starts to seriously get to us and we need to get rid of any space-wasters. Of course, this is followed up by plenty of new apps we want to try out. It’s a vicious cycle. Of all those downloads, there are a few keepers we’ll hold on to. Here are 7 savvy apps you should know.

1.GOODGUIDE

3. EVERNOTE FOOD

You probably already use Evernote to store all those random memos and webpages you want to remember, well with Evernote Food 2.0, you can do the same for your entire gustatory life. Now available for the iPad, the free app is ideal for finding restaurants, storing recipes, and saving shots of the things you’ve devoured. Since a good portion of our Evernote was already food-related, this one’s a no-brainer.

4. EVEREST

What’s your “Everest?” Learning another language? Getting to the gym daily? Eating your weight in bacon? With this app, you can finally start working towards your life goals. Think of it as a social network for people who get things done. Share your goals, get tips on how to break each down into steps, and track your progress towards a more productive life.

5. CARROT

Simply having a to-do list does not guarantee you’ll get anything done. In fact, most of our to-do lists start with “Make a To-Do List,” just so we can cross something off. With CARROT, your to-do list becomes a game, and you get more done because of it. Whether you accomplish your tasks and CARROT rewards you, or you upset it is totally up to you and your productivity.

6. HASSLE ME

If you’re the forgetful type and Carrot didn’t work, Hassle Me will literally hassle you to get stuff done, from finishing up your work to picking up something for dinner. It’s quick, with a simple layout and you are able to customize the amount of times per day it will hassle you.  A handy notification will also pop up in the live tile, alerting you of any outstanding to-dos, meaning a quick glance will all but remind you.

7. BEATS MUSIC

Beats might be a newcomer in this category, but the headphone company knows a thing or two about making music look and sound great. That experience carries over to Beats Music, a streaming app with a strikingly sleek interface and a song library that will satisfy even nitpicky audiophiles. Beats is built to help you find the perfect music for any mood, and hardcore music buffs will find plenty to love in the app's wealth of curated playlists from top producers and music publications, such as Dr. Dre and XXL Magazine.
