My mom introduced me to PaperKarma several months ago, and I love it! PaperKarma is an easy way to reduce junk mail. Simply pull out your phone and snap photos of any mail you don't want. It will figure out what it is and how to stop it! The system is simple: Using a massive…
Kelly from Faithful Provisions mentioned the Daily Audio Bible on Instagram last week, and I immediately downloaded the app. While I've resolved to read through the entire Bible multiple times, I still haven't successfully done it, but I love the idea of listening to the Bible each day, and the Daily Audio Bible is divided…
While most of the apps I've shared this year have been for adults, this app is hands down our favorite for preschoolers! Our youngest has been playing it for more than a year and still loves the matching, counting and puzzles. Monkey Preschool Lunchbox is one of a suite of educational yet fun apps from…

Hillary recently introduced me to this great FREE app, which lets you scan the barcodes of grocery products to get information about their ingredients. What I love about Fooducate is that it doesn't focus on the "nutrition" of an item but on really providing information about the ingredients used. For example, it knows all of…

With this app you can: Send live audio Listen to messages live or play them later Communicate with friends who have iPhones…
I'm a huge fan of Dropbox, which lets you backup your documents, photos and other files automatically to the cloud and access them from any computer or device.
