By now, most of us are aware of the iPhone and it’s ever expanding selection of applications known as �apps.’ The iPhone App Store currently boasts a selection of over 150,000 apps, many of which fall into the categories of either time savers or time wasters. In this article we will examine some ways in which iPhone apps can help us save time, waste time and make our lives a bit easier in the process.
1. They ease frustrations – Sometimes all you need in life is a little distraction. Studies have shown that taking small breaks from work or other potentially frustrating activities can result in more productive returns to those activities. The next time you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed or in need of a break, take a browse through the app store. There are many classic games from video game consoles of yesteryear, as well as a wide selection of new and innovative games and applications across all genres and subjects. While a browse through the app store can be as effective as a purchase when it comes to relaxation, with all of the free games and demos available, there is no reason not to download one and start playing!
2. They solve problems – If you are lost, there is an iPhone app that will get you home. If you are hungry, there’s an app that will guide you to the nearest restaurant. You can even filter the restaurants based on feedback provided by your peers. There are apps that will allow you to log into your home computer from anywhere in the world, shop at one store while you’re in line at another, and even pay your bills while out at dinner. Multi-tasking and problem solving with the aid of an iPhone has become a way of life for millions of people around the world.
3. They teach us – There are iPhone apps for learning foreign languages, elevating your higher brain functions, and figuring out geometry. You can even find several apps that are designed to help develop your musical ear. The next time you come across a subject you are interested in learning more about, check the app store for a relevant app. You just might find a game or program that both entertains you and increases your grasp on the subject.
