Ever wonder how we all functioned without our smartphones and tablets? Remember when phones just made phone calls? Try leaving your devices at home one day and you will be quickly reminded how useful they are. How did we navigate without Google Maps or find restaurants without Yelp and Open Table?
The truth is our tech world is constantly changing and one of the benefits is that new apps are coming out daily. If you can think up an app that hasn't been developed yet, you are a visionary. You should get on it and get that app to market. Apple's slogan from 2009 "There's an app for that" has turned out to be quite prophetic, because today there really is an app for almost everything.
So what is your favorite app? Everyone has a few that they can't live without and a few that seemed great but are now just taking up icon space on your phone. Below you will find a list of some of our favorites, but we want to know what you think. Please leave us a comment on what app you like and why. Who knows, you may introduce someone to their new favorite!
