The only apps I have on my phone are for the weather, ESPN for scores, and Waze for traffic (still don’t know how to use it).

 

Even those I really don’t deal with.  Perhaps I get set in my ways...

 

How about you, do you use a lot for banking, fitness, etc...?

Mint, untappd, The Athletic, Fantasy football, waze, gun deals, venmo, paypal, ticketmaster, stubhub, gmail, NYT crossword, amazon, bank apps, tunity, grocery stores, pinochle, chevy, credit card apps, airbnb, uber, lyft, ESPN, golf gps app.

 

There's some more but these are the ones I use most.

Flight Aware.  I'm still amazed that when a commercial airliner is flying 7 miles above my head, the app tells me where it's from, where it's going, duration of flight, speed, and altitude. And that's the free app, upgrades are available.

 

Sky View Light.  Again, free, with upgrades available.  Is that a star or a planet you're seeing?  This app will let you know.

It's literally just called "Pinochle."  It's made by fishdog.  Little banner ad at the bottom supports it.  Super simple, clean.  Only issue is your partner sucks, but it's a great time killer when you're stuck somewhere with ***** internet.

Similar list for me; I probably have a hundred and use 25 regularly.   Restaurant ones (Yelp, OpenTable) are very helpful.  Also real estate apps, news apps, etc.

Tell the truth! You have the potty search app in your top 3, I’m sure!  

 

 

I use Waze, weather (2 - weather is important to me), Uber, calculator, Delta,  flashlight (it’s an old people thing - Plenz probably uses that too), maps will help you find your parked car (another old...never mind), Sirius and Pandora, notes, then the other 30-40 I rarely if ever go near.

I have Venmo, for some stupid reason....but I’ll forgive you if I like America’s Test Kitchen!

I do not have one app which does not come preinstalled on my phone and would like to remove some which are on but can't.

 

My company on the other hand expects NOW that you have a smart phone with apps for work and benefits but none of this was a requirement when I took job;p in fact to save money they tried to get rid of my RSA token and I told them if they make it a requirement I can declare on my taxes it as unreimbursed work expense which is something they do not wish to do for it turns away potential employees.  They are requiring apps for some benefits but denying that they are required but after a year on inquiry how to use it without an app, they have made no replies.

My phone is too old to have root implant.  It is a flip phone and my eyesight is not good enough to use a smartphone.

I discovered how to delete 4 demo games today saving valuable memory space.

I do everything on my phone, only thing I do on desktop, laptop/notebook are Our taxes.

 

Still on Galaxy S6.  I have been nearsighted and wearing glasses since about 10.  Actually my up close vision has gotten better since using smartphones last 6 years and getting older (50), I am holding phone 2 feet away typing this with glasses off.

 

FWIW... I have numerous Apps yet, I am careful and selective on ones I choose.
