Its quite obvious that each and every South African probably want to have an awesome year in spite of the uncertainties in trends? I will share with you some apps you can easily get from the play store or iOS store, that will provide everyday solutions to your challenges as you hustle to make it big this year, It is unfortunate to note that most people get their goals derailed before the first quarter of the New Year lapses. However, with these apps on your jealously-kept companion… your personal assistant… your smart device, I trust you will be influenced to exercise some more discipline and have the best year of your life.
7 Minute Workout
You made resolutions to keep fit and build some muscles. You started grand, and in the third week, you crashed. Your body still looks the same, but you are hoping that next year comes early so you can start ‘afresh’ again. I ‘beseech’ you to skip the gym and give 1/144th of your days’ time to this app. At mid-year, send me a picture of your ‘then’ and ‘now’.
iSentry
This is a free home security system. From your mobile smart device, you can detect motion inside your room, in your car or from anywhere you have positioned your computer’s webcam. You can live a little freely knowing that the back you left is covered with a ‘Russian-Style’ sensory device. You can alert the police before all your properties are burgled.
This is free for iOS only.
Focus Booster
You need to get a lot of things done on your smart device; however, you get distractions by Eden-Apple crafted notifications every other 20 seconds.
This app applies a technique to keep you disciplined to stay to a task for an allotted time, followed by a break, then to another task, followed by another break…in that shuttle.
The technique is used by some of the highly effective people like Elon Musk, Bill Gates and Warren Buffet. Focus Booster will definitely make you highly effective.
.
MoneyWise
If you constantly wonder where all your wallet cash sipped into, then this app is definitely for you. MoneyWise is your budget checker on the go. It should be the first app you make space for on your device. Very important.
See how money comes into your hands and discover which outlets are bigger or sizeable. You will develop a prudent spending habit and reduce your debts.
Duolingo
You definitely have an advantage when you understand another language. This app provides a fun way to learn a new language, at your own pace.

Dropbox
Alright, so you grin whenever your phone alerts you, “Memory Full. Delete Items.” You have so much information you just can’t let go – pics, videos, documents and gifs…haha! Well, this app gives you the option to store as many items as you want safety in the clouds.
You can access your data from anywhere, anytime. Never feel like you have to cut your arm again, just upload all your documents to Dropbox, and voila!
Google Keep
If you didn’t know, ideas are wealth in crude form. It is estimated that your mind processes over 16,000 thoughts per day. Imagine the wealth you have lost because you lost some thoughts.
Google Keeps allows you to quickly capture what’s on your mind and get a reminder later at the right place or time. Keep custom-made notes and voice memos of incredulous ideas in a fun way, and one of them could make you a billion dollars!
OLX/ Gumtree
I will get some critique for this. I don’t have a favourite though. Nonetheless, it is important you have an e-commerce app on your device this year. They come with a lot of convenience and perks…Black Friday…Cyber Monday…Christmas Discounts…Valentine Give-Aways.
So, there you have it, my list of 11 apps that will cover the important areas of your life in this year: from mental, to physical, to financial and to social. Note however that this list is not exhaustive; these are apps I have used and want to share with you.
