I'm currently rediscovering the world of apps but I'm overwhelmed by so much being available. What apps do you love or have changed your life? My bank's app has changed my life, but not in a good way. Really useful. Plus, due to moving in , I live quite a distance from the actual branch I bank at.
I have been doing online banking for at least 17 years without issue. Now I have to go to a branch again. Bank's solution to my issues not very helpful. I will go into the branch in person soon and get them to talk me through their app, because there was no information on system requirements at the time they changed.
I am generally not a fan of apps as they appear far more restrictive and limited than going to a website for example, Expedia. Google maps has probably revolutionised my life the most! And the torch!
Clearly I am quite dull! Log in to update your newsletter preferences. I'm very boring. Bank apps and my local taxi rank has an app just like Uber which was very helpful before I could drive! When I was contracting with DD a contractions timer app was soo useful. Sleep Cycle in place of a normal alarm. Properly revolutionised my waking up - it senses your movement, you set a rough time to wake up and the alarm goes off when it senses you're in a 'light' sleep phase I.
It's brilliant - never jars you awake, every morning it goes off I feel like I'm naturally waking up anyway. Love it. One Note. My short term memory is appalling neuro issue , so I have running lists on there for everything. Period tracker. Online grocery shopping - no car, disabled, live semi-rural with not great public transport. Again, much easier. Morrisons very reliable IME, only had 2 subs in 3 years.
