Before you enjoy that cup of coffee every morning, chances are you have already turned to a mobile app to start your day.

Whether it’s finding your way to a meeting, planning your daily routine, or even adding the cost of that expensive meal to your weekly budget, one thing is clear: apps are now an integral part of our daily lifestyle.

From social network apps to communication apps to games, the possibilities with mobile apps are just endless. Apps play a key role in those “I-want-to-know”, “I-want-to-go”, and “I-want-to-buy” moments. They are also a powerful way for SMEs to build deeper relationships with customers. A mobile app marketing strategy can complement offline experience, drive e-commerce, or simply help connect with loyal customers.

To save you from exploring the plethora of applications you could download that will make life and business smoother, we’ve listed three below:

Abacus

Abacus simplifies and improves the expense-management system for both employees and managers. The app allows employees to take a picture of a receipt, and digitally file and categorize the charge. Managers can approve receipts from a mobile device or at a desktop computer.

The end goal is efficiency. Not only does having expenses organized make day-to-day company life more organized, but approved charges are reimbursed the very next day.

GT Dollar

GT Dollar helps you save money and live smarter. In the process of combining everything you need under one app of total convenience, wouldn’t you end up saving a heap of time that can be better spent doing more important stuff? Why sweat buckets under the stiflingly hot Singapore sun when you can chill out on the comfort of your couch and tap a few buttons to make things happen?

With no registration, subscription and advertising fees, the platform is centered on one universal virtual credit account to allow users to make payment via e-wallet, manage finances and connect with friends and merchants. It provides access and benefits from promotions anytime, anywhere. Communication between merchants and consumers is facilitated via seamless GPS-location and user-friendly booking platforms.

Download GT Dollar App now at Apple App Store or Google Play.

Alfred

Does it feel like you need the rest of the world to be frozen in time so you can catch up with your to-do-list? When was the last time you actually had all of your chores done, your fridge full and your apartment tidy?

Alfred, the personal life-management app coordinates your laundry, dry cleaning and other domestic chores for a fee, and interactions are entirely digital, to save time and paperwork.

Make The Change

In this fast-changing business landscape, mobile apps have become the essential fire-starter. The ease they have provided in accessing clients and pushing forward businesses has revolutionized almost every industry.

And information dissemination does matter in today’s fast-paced world. Getting a promotion to a consumer first almost equals a transaction, and a delay in getting the information across can often amount to lost revenue. Make the choice to drive changes; make the choice to live smarter.
