10 Smartphone apps to keep you organized

10 Smartphone apps to keep you organized

In this age of emerging technology everyone has a smartphone but are you using yours to it's maximum capacity? Smartphones are capable of much more than talking (do people still use them for that?) or texting, you can literally organize you entire life through your smartphone by way of the apps you choose for your phone. I personally could not live without my phone, it holds the keys to juggling a very full schedule and making it look easy. This app literally can manage your life! Need to make a to do list, can handle it, gotta find an easy way to catalog your recipes? to the rescue. Planning a trip? can keep your itinerary right at hand. I can't say enough about this app, and did I tell you it's web based as well? Go check it out for yourself you won't be sorry.

gives you instant access to all your documents, photos and files across your computer, mobile and the website. Ever needed a document only to realize that you forgot to download it to your phone? With that will never happen again, within seconds you can have the file you need.

is a Siri like virtual assistant for android phones. This may be my favorite app, not only is it a super productive assistant but it is downright fun too! You can make your own custom assistant right down to the hair, skin color and clothing. I no longer have Siri envy once I latched onto this.

Google Mobile Apps have revolutionized the world as we know it. It all began with their powerful search engine and they keep on churning out some of the best productivity apps I've ever used.

Are you a power texter? If so then this is your go to app Go SMS Pro makes even a text novice like me a texter extrodinaire! You can schedule texts, personalize the look and feel of your texts, it even has a private box where you can keep contacts and texts away from prying eyes. Video, MMS, emoticons are all available there's even a feature to chat with other Go SMS Pro users. This is a million times better than your stock texting app.

Passwords are a way of life now, the more secure the better but creating them and keeping up with them are another story. This is app is toted as "the last password manager you'll ever need" and I agree, is a password manager, password generator, automatic form filler and much much more. It syncs instantly with all your devices so your data is secure and at hand when you need it.

Need to find a restaurant that serves chicken and waffles at 2 am on a Tuesday? Yelp can find it, Yelp makes searching for businesses easy with its knowledge base of local insiders who can tell you what's hot or not.

Do ideas or things to do jump into your thoughts at the weirdest times? can help with that, it's like a brain dump for your smartphone. Forget about paper stickies that you may forget to take with you, with Bug Me you create custom stickies to leave notes for yourself but on your phone. Genius right? There is a alarm feature so you can be reminded of when something needs to be done.

is the visual voicemail that should have come with you phone but didn't. It allows you to personalize your voicemail greeting with stock greetings, your own voice and the coolest feature of all is that it greets your callers by name.

Mint is all about keeping you financially organized and solvent at the same time. I was particularly impressed with the option to make a budget to help you meet your financial goals. It also sends weekly reports about your spending, it's your own accountant in a mobile app.
