Since there are so many great apps out there, I want to ask the ever-so-important question: Which one is absolutely essential to your daily life?

I’ll go first: Waterllama! I started using it a few months ago because I really like to know precisely what and how much I drink each day, especially during the summer.

I’d love to hear about the app you use the most and why it’s so important to you. And if you have any tips or tricks for getting the most out of the app, I’d love to hear those too!

    A weird AI picture of a phone. Promoting a hydration tracker as “an app you can’t live without.” And your only other post is about another app, and one of your three comments is promoting another app…

    I can’t imagine shill accounts are a thing on Lemmy yet, but…

      I’m sorry if my posts have given the impression that I’m promoting specific apps. I’m simply trying to share interesting and helpful information about a variety of topics. I am still new here, but I would like for the Lemmy community to be more active. That’s all there is, really.

    I have never understood the modern obession with hydration, carrying bottles everywhere, drinking a glass of water on a schedule.

    Out bodies have internal hydration tracking. It’s called being “thirsty” or do we only use that word for sex now?

      Well, when I get thirsty i am flirting…with migraine. I don’t have a schedule I just habitually drink a lot of water… but to be able to drink regularly I need to carry it with me.

    I could easily live with out my devices so I don’t have an app that I “couldn’t live without” but some of my heavily used apps lately are-

    Voyager: Apollo like client for Lemmy

    Infuse: network media player that also syncs to AppleTV. Let’s me stream straight from Google Drive rather than needing a Plex server and local storage. Has a subscription monthly/yearly subscription or a one-time payment but the cost is pretty steep for OTP so I subscribed on a yearly renewal ($10 vs $95)

    Mastodon: I just dumped X/Twitter and the fediverse is so much better. You just see exactly who you follow and what you want to see

    Afterplay.io: a web emulator for iOS+more that syncs all your saves and ROMs to all your devices

    I also would have said Apollo. Since that died I’ve not used my phone all that much.

    So, right now it’s a tie between Home Assistant and 1Password 8.

    ReVanced. Youtube ads are either scams or viruses half the time, and they’re exhausting mentally to deal with. I’ll buy merch from people I want to support, because fuck google.

        It’s busy something I do in my spare time, and I’ve made 3500 dollars over 18 months. It’s tedious, not gonna lie, but I’ve bought myself a lot of stuff with it! There’s a couple of other apps I use too. Idk it’s definitely slow going but I’ve managed to buy myself a lot of stuff.
