You can also track your food with an app to help keep you weight in check. Apps are great. They can waste our time if we get addicted to certain appps like games for example flappy bird
Do apps help you or is it a waste of time?
ReplyDeleteApps can help you or they can be a total waste of time. It depends on which apps you use and how you use them. On one hand, there are gaming apps like Flappy bird, temple run, subway surfers, which just provide some entertainment but can get us addicted and waste a lot of our precious time. On the other hand, there are some really useful apps like dropbox, expense tracker, myfitnesspal, pocket, which can simplify life considerably.
Since apps work with the device’s built-in features, they are easier to work with and also perform faster on the device
ReplyDeleteBecause these apps have to get the approval of the app store they are intended for, the user can be assured of complete safety and security of the app. There are Million different types of apps like gaming, fitness, news, beauty, books, Entertainment, Music. Apps Are Really Easy To Use, anybody can use them. They are approved by the app store so you don’t have to worry about them affecting your phone. You can apps in most of the gadgets Like phones, tablets etc. In my opinion apps help us a lot in daily life and make are our life really easy.
Different types of apps we use in our daily life: Twitter, Youtube, Gulf News, Facebook

ReplyDeleteApps sometimes help you and also it is a waste of time. Some apps are of great productivity and some apps are completely pointless. Appssuch as Photoshop, Gmail, Chrome etc, can really help one but some apps are just meant for hours of fun. My young brother plays Flappy Bird, Angry Bird, and Subway Surfers etc. for hours in the corner of the room hoarding over his Ipad. Maybe you can play some game, watch videos after some serious work but playing the games for hours is completely futile plus playing these games and watching the videos are just going to waste your precious time. Some apps which include productivity are really useful for:- checking mails, news etc.
Things get done faster my apps are very helpful because I can check my bank balances at any time, from anywhere. I also always have games to play to keep me busy while I wait at certain places. I also track my food with an app to help keep my weight in check. Apps are great. You can also play games to waste time if ur on a trip or waiting for someone you can also communicate with you friends

Everyone has an app these days. TV shows, web sites, major multinational corporations,through an iPhone app -- but what are they?
ReplyDeleteWell, apps are basically little, self-contained programs, used to enhance existing functionality, hopefully in a simple, more user-friendly way.
Take one of today's modern smartphones. They all come with powerful web browsers, meaning you can do pretty much anything you can do on a desktop computer in a phone's browser.
But fiddling about with a URL bar and managing bookmarks on a mobile phone it still a pretty awkward, cumbersome experience. Which is why many online sites and services now go down the standalone app route, giving them better control of the user experience and, hopefully, making everything simpler and quicker to open and use.
APPS which I have used or helped me:-ADOBE FLASH PLAYER,BBC,MLG,SKYPE
I think that applications help a lot in our Daily lives. They make our work a lot easier at times. And some are really entertaining too. They help you in almost field of life. Whether it be keeping track of your health or doing multi tasking . Some apps also help to boost the mobile experience of the user like battery saver, ram clearing apps. This makes your mobile using experience really better. Then there are games which kill boredom and refresh our mind. In conclusion apps are really usefull.

Apps have become a very important part of our lives. At times they help us and at times they waste our times. Things get done faster.
ReplyDeleteMy apps are very helpful because I can check my social networking accounts at any time, from anywhere. I also always have games to play to keep me busy while I wait at certain places. I also track my food with an app to help keep my weight in check. Apps are great.
Although, apps mostly waste time.
It sounds good to have an app for everything one could imagine. But basically people are just putting gadgets on their phones that they first have to figure out and then find themselves playing with. There is nothing wrong with having to do a search for a particular fact or taking some responsibility for figuring something out.
In my opinion apps have their own advantages and disadvantages and it depends upon how you use them.
I think that apps help us a lot. For example we can use the google app to search anything we need wherever we are and whenever we want because it is with us in our phones. Even instant messaging apps like whatsapp or bbm etc. help us to communicate to other people on the go and the best part is it is free of charge.So personally I think that apps are a boon and make life a lot easier.
ReplyDelete| I think that applications are waste of time. Nowadays all teenagers spend their time on social networking sites. They are constantly hooked on updating statuses and improving their social networking images. Teenagers spend most of the time playing online games than studying. The games are very addicting and drop of grades is what results. Sounds of an application like for a example when a message is received or in a game are also very distracting.
ReplyDeleteThere are way too many apps on the market. I feel like most of them are time consumers, like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. Also, all of the games that are out there! Most of these apps are to fulfill someone's boredom. But the technology advancements in this world are making humans lazy. We used to go out and do things without thinking about, "Oh! Let me sit here and play another game," or "Let me check my notifications first!"
ReplyDeleteMost apps are truly a waste of time. Unless they help you with academics, news updates and information or sports, then I think they are completely irrelevant. They don't help you go forward in your life because they turn you into addicted couch potatoes. I can't stand when I see people glued to their cell phones over a stupid app. But that's just me.

I think that most applications are a waste of time. Most of the people for the future generation are focused on Facebook, what’s app etc. These applications are distracting the young minds of children and teenagers from things like studies and outdoor activities. There are a few cases where teenagers get too addicted to their social network that it spoils their eyes, this happens by staring at the computer or mobile phone phone-Douglas Beckham Hardy
ReplyDeletehi its bev :3
DeleteWithout app there will be no latest discoveries, but at the same time they are a waste of time as people get addicted to it
ReplyDeleteUses of app:
It makes work easy for you. My favourite app is showbox cause it has all movies and tv shows and it is a great entertainment
Waste of time:
Many people get addict to it.Even me I got addicted to my apps and waste a lot of time
So overall it depends on how you use so app has made our world entirely different
Do apps help you or is it a waste of time?
ReplyDeleteWelcome to my blog, guys. I am Chamodh Lasika, almost an expert in logic.
Well, it depends on the sort of app you are using. If its FlappyBird or IronPants, well, you are wasting your time. If it is something useful like CutTheRope and Angry Birds that stimulates your mind and strategical skills, it’s okay. But I am seriously recommending the Lumosity app which is fun and productively trains your brain for everyday tasks. So there.
In my opinion, apps are both useful and a waste of time. It naturally depends on the person who is using it. For instance if he downloads an app to play the game, then that’s a waste of time. This doesn’t mean that apps are not useful. Lots of apps provide social networking in which we can communicate with our friends and family. There are also a few useful games that can increase brain power. Yousef Saeed Taha 9B1 +)
ReplyDeleteAn application, whether it is a time killer or just an “edutainment” application, can only serve its purpose depending on the approach the user has towards it. Many people tend to get ‘addicted’ to certain games and practically waste their valuable time while they are supposed to concentrate on other important things. While on the other hand, we have edutainment which provides you the best of both worlds; education and entertainment, at the same time.
