The total count of the apps installed in my phone are 57, including built-in apps, photo editing, productivity and to-do apps, but I don’t use them all. I think, only half of them. Aside from Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, I have my 10 favorites that helps me to be more productive even though I’m not home and not facing my laptop. That’s why these are my essentials

1. Snapchat

This is my most favorite app. I swear! It is so addicting. The moment I open my eyes in the morning, the first app that I would checked, is Snapchat. (Snapchat before anything else) This is my way of documenting my daily life routine. From school, the people I hang-out with, event happenings, and everything I do until I reached home, or should I say, until I go to bed. You can see it all here. But ofcourse, nothing lasts forever that’s why snaps can only last for 24 hours. They expires too. Through this app, I also get the chance to be updated in the life of the people I’m closed with, and my favorite celebrities. If you have this app installed in your phone, be sure to follow my stories by adding me (nicolesnmgl)

2. Blog Touch

Blog Touch is a life saver for bloggers like me who don’t have enough time to face their laptop all day and have a lot of errands to do aside from blogging. This app is designed to ease your work so you can manage an unlimited number of blogs if you owns 2 or more blogs. This is very helpful for me because everytime an inspiration comes to me, and it happens that I’m not home and I don’t bring my laptop with me, I can still write what’s on my mind and save it to drafts.

3. Lookbook

This is my no. 1 source of fashion inspiration all over the world. I’m also using this app to post my OOTDs easily.

4. Spotify

Who can’t live without music? Everyone, right? Music is everywhere. For me, Spotify is the best way to listen to music on mobiles, tablet, and laptop. You can search tracks, your favorite artist, and follow their albums,

5. VSCO

As I have said in my “how to edit instagram photos” blog post, VSCO is my favorite photo editing app. Although I only use two (Snapseed and VSCO) I used VSCO for applying filters and enhancing the photo if I didn’t achieve the result that I want in Snapseed. Though Snapseed is a great photo editing app too.

6. Pinterest

I used Pinterest as a visual bookmarking tool that helps me discover and save creative ideas. From, interior design, DIY projects, hair inspirations, and fashion ideas. I’m a person who loves anything that is made by the hands and anything that is personalized that’s why this is very helpful for me to find great ideas for my DIY projects and anything that inspires me.

7. Grab

Commuting is hard. I’m a Pampanga based blogger and taxi is very rare here in the province. But still, I find this app very helpful because everytime I’m in Manila, or other cities, I still get to used this app. Grab car, Taxi, Bike, Express, and even a helicopter. So I suggest to install this app for those who loves to travel because this app is not just only in the Philippines, it also works even in other Asian countries, and thousands of cities. Plus, Grab also offers different promo for their loyal customers.

8. Shopee

Shopee is a fun, free, and trusted way to buy and sell instantly on your phone. I used this app to sell my preloved clothes and brand new bags. Anything you want to buy, you can find them all here in this app, apparels for men and women, gadgets, accessories, and others.

9. Buffer

I think this app is a must-have for online influencers. You can store up to 100 posts in your buffer and it can connect upto 10 social media accounts, including facebook, twitter, and pinterest. Just add any link, photos, videos, and anything that you want to share to your Buffer, and your updates will automatically be scheduled throughout the day to post to your favorite social media accounts. Ofcourse, we don’t want to flood our friends and followers online with consecutive posts. Instead, just add it on buffer and you’ll have great social updates for the rest of the day, and the next few days. It’s also good to track the engagement of a certain post

10. Kendall & Kylie 

Kendall and Kylie Jenner has a new game app. Here, you can create your own character with hundreds of the latest styles, and share customized photos of your digital self. The start of this adventure is meeting Kendall and Kylie Jenner. You’ll make besties, enemies, go on dates, shoot vlogs, and do modelling gigs. I’m a big fan of the Jenner sisters that’s why this game app is for me. Such a lovely game!
