What are "Apps"?
"App" is short for "application". Applications are helpful programs on your Iphone that allow you to do different things. "There's an app for that" is an accurate statement. Yes, there are a whole bunch more that I use, but here are my nine favorite apps and why I love them! I even added links to the tutorials for those who are learning the app for the first time. ;)
Here is the link to the apple app store: link here. These apps should be free or have a lite version which is worth getting too.

For Womanhood:
Pinterest allows you to create/maintain pinboards that you can pin website links, blog links, photos, even locations onto. This is great for woman who want to be a better cook (recipe board), who want to take better pictures (photo board), or who want to be a better home decorator (home decor). There are many reasons why people use Pinterest! I love using it for new recipes, play activities for girls, date nights, gift ideas and SO MUCH more!

Evernote is a sharing note and organizing notebooks app. It enables you to have notebooks with notes inside. My husband and I have a joint account that we use. I am able to upload notes for him, like grocery list or my ultimate wish list. He uses it for devotionals and for storing his teaching lessons. It allows us to stay connected and stay organized. We like this app!

Snapseed is a great editing program for your photos. The main tools I use within the app are titled "Tune Image", "Details", "HDR Scape", and "Center Focus". Just those four allows me to turn photos from bland to something gorgeous!

This app, called Phonto, allows you to write on top of your photos. This is great for those who want to go a step further in enhancing those pictures that they love so much! It has a wide range of fonts to choose from and lots of variety on personalizing it! I love to put Bible verses on mine. :)
Motherhood:
Relax Melodies is amazing. It has over 96 different sounds that you can turn on, even combinations of sounds. I used this app to put my daughters to sleep with sounds like: "light rain", "brown noise", "night", "ocean", and even "piano". You can save your favorites and customize each sound. I even use this app for myself as a background noise. I love it!
"I hear Ewe" is a simple app for little kids. It has different animals and objects that you can click on. When you do, it tells you what it is and makes the sound. I use it when I need to temporarily distract my girls. I really like the simplicity of this app.
Classics:
1. Post only once a day.
2. Keep it simple and short.
3. Don't SHARE everything.
4. Realize your friends read what you post and what you like.
5. Pick the best photos. Post those only.
6. Read link.
Instagram is a photo sharing app. You can set up a private account with a limited friend list and share photo with updates. I use this app for my family and close friends to show them pictures of the girls, our family life and special events. It is a great app to stay connected with those I love!
One recommendation: use sparingly. This is not an album photo sharing. This is a once-maybe-twice-a-day photo sharing! :)

Pandora is my favorite app! It allows me to have stations for listening to a variety of music genre. I have created stations that are mainly gospel, kid lullabies, christian kid songs, even just classic hymns or strings. I love this app! I use it all day long. It keeps me relaxed or motivates me to get something done!
