Speaking of applications, whether it's iOS, Symbian, or Android, there are huge applications on the market (app store) waited to be installed on our precious mobile devices. Some are paid and others are free to try and some applications can even generate an earning just by completing tasks. With the rapid growth of digital technology applications are becoming more and more utilitarian, but we can't evade the fact that some applications also are just bogus and scam, created to invade our privacy and get access to our confidential and sensitive informations. Having said that, it's very important to choose wisely and before installing a certain application you must cross check the application's background to prevent any intrusion that the app can make on your mobile devices once installed.
As a techie, heavy gamer, and an on-the-go kind of person, I need specific application/s that's suited for my daily adventures and here's my "best" applications so far:
Android Device Manager - For me security is the most important factor that needs to take into consideration before anything else. So setting this up can give you a certain peace of mind when you ever lost your phone.
Kaspersky Internet Security - Surfing over the internet using our mobile device can be risky, specially when we are diving deeper into a certain domain and sites that are a lot of ads attached to it. Setting up an additional security like this will give you confidence that phishing sites cannot intrude over your phone.
Facebook and Messenger - I believe that this app is always present in everyone's phone. A very convenient app for converging and sharing our valuable thoughts, experiences, business, and adventures with anyone on our friends list or in public.
Instagram - Another social media sharing platform where we can post our precious images and share it to our friends and loved ones.
Google Chrome Browser - This bloatware I believe is the most used browser on every single phone out there.
Google Drive - If you want to save your precious documents then this cloud storage is a good catch. Based on my impression some android users doesn't utilize this bloatware and just let this app sit on the system for no good use. It's limited storage is quite sufficient for small chunks of data alone, and it's free.
Mega - A premium cloud storage where you can have a 50GB of
FREE storage once you signed up. Not all cloud storage offers this huge storage capacity for free, so this app is a must for me.
Google Map - As a biker and a motorcycle rider I need this kind of app to guide me for my long drive together with my friends on a weekend ride. This app is very useful, based on personal experience, specially when you're traveling on unfamiliar roads and or terrains.
Uber - A networking transportation company that let us book a ride and makes our travel much more easier and comfortable. This is a must have for me because the traffic here in my country is worse and daily commuting is very challenging and tiresome.
Grab - Another networking transportation company just like Uber.
Gmail App - This app is one of the essentials on every phone out there. This is important specially to us that are in contact with our clients, colleagues, and friends. Having this present on our phone will make it easier to check our emails on the fly.
Youtube - A streaming platform where I believe every smartphone user has this application installed.
Netflix - This is a very cool app wherein I can watch a movie together with my friends, loved one, and members of the family without spending too much and subjecting myself into a long queue on a movie theater. I can even watch the latest TV series while I'm traveling or inside a public transport. How convenient it is.
