Even with thousands of apps out there, I only end up using a select few on a regular basis. After sharing some of my favorites I wanted to add some others that have been topping the list lately.
Tripit: This app syncs with your email account to make travel much more seamless. It logs all your reservations/flights/hotels and any other type of confirmation that comes into your inbox into an organized list and it will also automatically update any changes in your reservations. With a busy year coming up with lots of events to keep track of, this app is a dutiful assistant.
justWink: I love snail mail and handwritten cards more than most but sometimes in a pinch you need to send a forgotten birthday message or last minute good luck wishes, this app has a selection of e-cards that can be texted or emailed on the go. You can also upload your own photos before you send off that instant love note or congratulations!
Mint: this site and app has completely altered the way I look at spending since I signed up three months ago. It links to all of your accounts (bank, credit cards, loans, 401k) and tracks them all. You can set budgets for different categories and even create your own then it will alert you when you are approaching or over budget in individual categories. The “ordering in”, “weekday breakfast” and “clothing” budgets were the ones that I hadn’t realized how much all the little things add up and it has really curbed my spending in those as well as other areas.
What are you some of your favorites?
