<![CDATA[Useful Apps]]>What apps do you have that honestly make your life easier?

What made me think of this:
I downloaded Rocket Money a month ago because I was stressing after a few large purchases that took a bite out of our savings. I did the free trial and having the little AI tell me my finances were fine as long as I kept those purchases to every few years was super reassuring. Then I let it lapse, but brought it back a month later because I missed talking to the AI. It has helped me craft a better budget and lay out for my husband some of his poor purchases.

It legitimately also found a second Disney+ account we were paying for. Husband thought he had cancled it when he got the Hulu+, ESPN, Disney+ bundle.

Organic Maps to track my running without feeding me to a data miner or worse.

Foobar2000 for music.

VLC for non-music media.

Foxit for reading and filling in .pdfs.

First Aid and Pet First Aid from The American Red Cross.

One time payment for DroidcamX so I can use my phone in lieu of a webcam, resulting in much better quality than any retail webcam.
