8 Most Useful Android Apps I won't Probably Uninstall (Hint: No Game)


We all have different needs and wants as to what apps we will keep in our phones especially that we have a wide array of choices in the world of Android where you can find almost anything you want to help you make your life easier every single day. That's if you are keen enough to use your powerful smartphones to its maximum advantage.

Here are some of the most useful apps in my smartphone that will probably survive un-installation this year because they have been part of my daily life and they have made my life easier in the past-year.

1. Google Photos - This is the number one app in my list. For some of you who has no idea what Google Photo does, it's actually where I am storing all my 38Gigabytes+ worth of photos. You probably wonder why I'm not used to store and upload all my photos in Facebook? Try downloading the photos you have uploaded then you will know why and.. (I think we should take photos for memories and not for social media)

2. Google Maps - Who doesn't love the recently rolled-out feature that lets us use it offline? (actually that was last 2015 I think) I love that feature because it's really useful. I survived Cebu wandering with Google Maps offline last February of 2016 and, not just Cebu but Metro Manila. Guess what, I've downloaded MM and constantly updating it just in case when I needed it.

3. Coins.PH - I think you aren't familiar with this yet. It's actually an all-purpose app, let's you pay bills, send money using money remittances, buy load and get rebates, and my most favorite, send money thru card less ATM withdrawal for FREEEEEEEEE! Plus, I can buy and sell bitcoins and grow my money. You can read on here how I sent money to anyone for free using CoinsPH.

4. LastPass - This is in short a password manager where you store and manage all your login details in all you instagram, twitter, GMail, yahoo, plus your second, and third and maybe fourth account in FB??? Yeah it's hard to remember all of our passwords, if it's not, I bet you are duplicating your passwords in all your accounts or putting in the name of your crush or your birthday as your password, and guess that's very dangerous. We need password manager to just remember one master password, don't ask if it'll ever get hacked and all your passwords are compromised, read more of it, also they have recently rolled out a feature where syncing in all devices is FREEEEE!

5. Wallet by Budgetbakers - I used it to track my expenses and have a broader understanding of my expenses and adjust it for saving. If you are fond of saving your hard-earned money you can try it it's a great FREE app. Some things I learned using wallet in a year is summarized here.
6. Google Drive - I love Google Drive especially that last year Google rewarded me of FREE 1 Terabytes worth of Google Drive storage for 2 years and I only have 1 year left already to upload all my important files before it expires. Currently, I have only used up 57Gigabytes+ worth of data that's including photos already. If you ever wonder how I availed my FREE 1TB Google Drive Storage it's here.

7. Google Keep - The app that syncs all my notes and reminders in my laptop, workstation and phone. You can make a checklist and tag them as well, plus if you're lazy typing, you can just draw it instead anyway you want it.

8. Timehop - The last but not the least, I think some app might be more useful than this but I choose it because it's unique. Literally this is your app for throwbacks, although Google Photos also lets you see some throwbacks but what timehop does is lets you see photos you have uploaded or taken during the same day a year ago or two from your favorite social media such as Google+, FB, Twitter, your SMS, Photos etc and. Share them or just for your own viewing, it's cool.

This are just one of the many great apps available to everyone for free and it's up to us on how we will maximize the use of our powerful smartphones.

Just be careful installing apps, we must beware of the permissions it asks us to grant that are way farther than their intended use to avoid falling for bad hackers.

Reaction Paper for the movie The Count of Monte Cristo

The Second Part of the Reaction Paper on the Count of Monte Cristo Movie. The Count of Monte Cristo is a great story that helps you to realize how far the reaches of vengeance can really go. When the Count is going around ruining people it seems like he is more of a machine than a person. It seems like he has no emotions and can’t forgive the people who hurt him. Although some people might argue that the people who wronged the Count truly had what was coming to them, some of the Count’s actions could be seen as unnecessary. In the end everyone will be punished or rewarded by God and you shouldn’t be worried about what other people do or say as much as you are worried about yourself. “God will give me justice,” this line which was engraved in the wall on the prison was retained on my mind when I watched the movie” The Count of Monte Cristo.” This movie amazed me very much because of its excellent theme. I really like the story because it has a mixed of drama, suspense and rom

Pluggle Review: 6 Reasons Why I doubt Pluggle and Why I'm Not Joining

First thing first, I am not concluding that this Pluggle is a scam because as per my observation and as far as my knowledge is concerned, people including my close friends seems profiting from this scheme and got the money they invested into it in a short period of time, and with profit ( although I'm sure the return of investment they got was paid by the people they invited and not from the company itself ). I think there's no doubt as to their legitimacy because, YES they are legitimate and are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of the Philippines as PLUGGLE INC. Are they scam? " Scam " is defined as a " dishonest scheme or a fraud ", are they being dishonest? I think no because they intend to do what they say. Are they " fraudulent "? Fraud is defined as " wrongful or criminal deception intended  to result in financial or personal gain "? This is also vague but I think I was struck by the last pa
