June 05 2025 - Digital Age of Apps

Prompt: Do you use Apps on your phone? What are your favourite Apps?

***

I use lots of apps Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, various bank apps, Novelist, Story Plotter, School and childcare apps, the kids activities apps - gymnastics, Parkour, and Circus - there are apps for EVERYTHING.

The world is online and "on the go" - I don't think it would keep turning is there were not apps to help us run our lives.

I wouldn't be able to keep in touch with my family and friends back in the UK as easily if I didn't use apps. They are the ones that I use the most. Coffee groups, parents' group, book club, sometimes we just send memes and GIFs at each other - my niece and I can have whole conversations without typing a word.

I send my mum photos of the kids to help her feel connected with them, and so she does feel like she's missing out. I even send her the digital copies of the school photos so she can print them out. We are contemplating one of other digital frame where I can just upload photos and they appear on her frame at home.

I have to book childcare spot through their app. I have to log absences at the school and activities via the app. I can book extra session and pay tuition fees... it's very convenient.

I can organise my UK bank and payments while I'm in Australia. Send money at a drop of the hat.

Log ideas on the various writing ones I have.

I even access writingdotcom on my photo - though that is through Edge and not an app.

I even my train ticket/pass is on my phone!!
