Life’s A Little Better With These 10 Awesome Apps

10 Free Apps to Make Life A Little Better, A Little Easier and A Little Fuller
Filed Under > Life Skills

“Being happier is something we can all choose to do” explains Happier, an app that serves as a handy, virtual gratitude journal.  Happier‘s mission is simple; it encourages you to celebrate the good around you.  Since celebrating the good stuff is something we take very seriously here at WOM, this app quickly became my new favorite discovery in iPhone App Land. 

But then I kept on a’ downloading, and I discovered Acorns and Trippeo.  Two apps that all seem to make my life a little easier (investing spare change from everyday purchases and auto-generating expense reports both sound great to me). It’s safe to say I was geeking out by the time I was playing around with Sleep Cycle (I’m a data nerd)… and how can I forget Splitwise? A friend recently told me how Splitwise took all of the headache out of planning a guys’ weekend at the cabin by perfectly divvying up grocery (and beer) runs. Genius.  And then of course I always love a good photo editing app for Instagram like the rest, and always appreciate any apps that help me find the best deals when I’m traveling. 

It’s amazing how some apps can truly make life a little brighter, quite easier and a lot fuller. Check out the list of 10 awesome apps for iPhones by clicking on the image above. Do you use any of my favorites too?  What other apps are rocking your world?  I’d love to add them to my list!  Cheers, Kat
