Daily Apps and Hardware I use
I work on a computer daily, 7 days a week in fact. I turn on some way somehow every day. I also use a ton of software, apps, and services on a daily basis. I have used Windows PCs and Macs, iPhone and Android Phones, and I have used thousands of apps.
These are the apps, tools, and services I use daily (Updated October 2018).
Hardware
I often stay up to date with the latest gadgets and hardware. I have tried to cut back on spending on gadgets but I still impulse buy sometimes. These are the devices I touch daily
- iPhone 8
- Macbook Pro (2016) – 8GB RAM, 512 GB SSD
- Smart Home – Nest Thermostat, Nest Protect, August Smart Lock, Philips Hue
- Apple Watch Series 1
- Samsung 4k Monitor
Apps
These are the apps I rely on for staying productive and keeping myself sane. These are the top ones that I touch or use on a daily basis at work or at home.
- Adobe Creative Cloud – Photoshop and Lightroom
- Sketch
- Flume
- Tweetdeck
- Slack
- Gyroscope
- Trello/Teamwork
- 1Password
- Skype
- Google AdWords PowerEditor
Services
These are the services that I pay for or lean on to stay productive and keep my life in order
- Amazon Prime
- Creative Cloud
- Hulu Live TV
- Google Drive/Google Photo’s Storage
- Lemonade – renters/home insurance
- T-Mobile – phone service
Overall
I will update this list and improve upon it as new apps, services, and tools get added to my arsenal.
While I use these services on a daily basis, I am always looking for better options that will either cut costs or make my life easier. Creative Cloud, while powerful, is extremely expensive and eats up a ton of RAM on my Mac.
