Five iPhone Apps You Should Download

If you’re looking for the coolest apps for your iPhone, you need to check out these apps in the App Store. These apps are either fun, useful, helpful, or just good old time wasters, so get to clicking.

  • Confide

    Confide is the app that turns your texts into self-destructing messages. Just like SnapChat, Confide allows the recipient to view what you’ve sent for a set amount of time before completely deleting it from the recipient’s phone and erasing all evidence. This is good for those texts you may not necessarily want floating around cyberspace. It’s free to download in the app store.

  • Rise Alarm Clock

    This is not your everyday alarm clock app. This app is designed to wake you in a calming, Zen-like method with beautiful, serene sounds and graphics. If you have a hard time waking up, this is the app for you. It’s simple and clean, and the interface is minimal and pleasing to interact with. This app is $1.99 in the app store, but according to the reviews it’s well worth the money.

  • CARROT

    This app helps you be productive, but it’s also fun! CARROT is a to-do list… with a bossy, hilarious personality. If you don’t complete your list, you will be scolded in the best way possible, and if you complete a task on your list you will be praised and cheered on. The app also sets challenges for you to make completing your to-do list more fun. CARROT costs $2.99 in the app store.

  • Waze

    If you have to commute or go on any kind of car trip, Waze is the best app on the market. It’s free in the app store and it not only works as a map, but it connects you with other travelers on the road to alert you of any upcoming traffic jams, accidents, or police stops. It even lets you know the expected miles per hour you’ll be going at certain junctures on your journey. It allows you to report problems to other travelers and you can make it on time by utilizing its estimated time of arrival feature.

  • Grocery Gadget

    This is the ultimate grocery shopping app. This app is kind of amazing because it helps you organize your pantry (and kitchen, laundry room, or fridge), remembers what you already have at home, syncs with your roommate’s or spouse’s list, and keeps up with your coupons. You can have multiple lists, compare prices, scan barcodes, and so much more. It’s $2.99 in the app store and worth every penny.
