I’m on the go a lot, which means I spend just as much time–if not more–on my phone as I spend on my computer.
This would not have been possible even just a few years ago. But luckily, technology has made it easy to be more and more productive with just a smartphone. Here’s a list of 10 mobile apps I love that help me save time and get things done.
1. MobileDay
I use conference lines frequently when I’m working with people from all areas of the globe. These calls typically all have their own conference number and conference code. When calling from my cell, it’s a huge annoyance to have to search my email on my phone and keep track of all the dial-in codes. The MobileDay app works with any conference call service by looking through your calendar, reminding you of the call, and with one click calling the conference line and dial any necessary codes for you.
This app saves you the time of digging out your wallet and searching for the credit card you want to use. Instead, if your phone is enabled with near field communication, all you need to do once you’ve registered your cards is open the app, pick the card you want to use, tap the back of your phone to an NFC checkout register, and be on your way. All your information is securely stored on Google’s servers, which you can remotely disable if you lose your phone.
