a friend just messaged me “you and your apps, you should have an app to recommend all your apps” and I realised that yeah I really do love a good app. I may do separate posts for apps in the future, but apart from the obvious ones (Insta, Spotify etc) here are some of my favourites: PI.FYI
Notion
Letterboxd
Natural Cycles
Planta
Shuffles
Swipewipe
Borrow Box
GG
Serialisd
Substack (love substack notes as a Twitter abstainer)
Heads Up
other than PI.FYI (and letterboxd) of course… how we feel
as someone who isn't the best at using words to express her feelings to someone verbally, i really enjoy using this app to log my emotions and subtly sharing it to the two people in my friends list collective
intended to be a safe space for the lgbtq+ community, it’s not just a social media app. there’s no need to maintain a following or aesthetic, and it’s place to share your life with the intentions of making connections paired
i haven’t used many couples apps, but i love how interactive this one is. everyday, you either answer a question or take a quiz with your partner and as scary as it can be being honest with some really personal questions, it’s fun learning about one another. it also keeps a streak as an incentive to do it daily, which i appreciate with my goldfish memory lapse
its literally a film camera on your phone and you get to wait for your photos to develop. i love an affordable film photography simulator
when i want to listen to music, i never think "yeah it's time to listen to a podcast". i don't want all of my notes drowning out my daily todo's. i love having distinct destinations for everything on my phone, and usually dedicated apps for one type of task have better features that places who want to do a little bit of everything.
