Cool Apps You Love

Mon Feb 19, 2018 9:09 pm

I'm always on the lookout for cool apps that are going to transform my life with negligible effort on my part, or at the very least do cool things.

Seriously though, I'd love to hear if people have made any cool app discoveries lately.

What tablet and/or phone apps are you living for at the moment? Let's take grindr as a given.

Specifically I'd love to find something to replace my beloved FlightTrack, whose shut down I'm still coming to terms with.

I'm considering deleting that app. It's mostly due to the area I live in, but it's just an ad-fest for even looking at it. It works when traveling or in a city since you see new faces. Not so much when you're in the middle of nowhere.

Among the apps I use on a daily basis:
-Scruff (gay dating app). The only one I'm paying to use as well. The worldwide reach of the app is a blessing and a curse: I get to meet guys I get along with but we're too far from each other.
-Sleep Cycle. Tracks my sleeping pattern and attempts to tell me how well I slept. It's sometimes a bit off (if it doesn't detect motion, it tells me I had an irregular night).

I use Stitcher every day. They have all the podcasts you want in one place.

I like Heavens Above which you can use to find out when to watch the ISS and Iridium Flares.
