apps that help me keep my life in order! ✅

this is just a little collection of the apps on my phone that i regularly use and wholeheartedly recommend to others! some of them have actually come as recommendations from other users on this app, so i wanted to share these to everyone here because they help me so much!!

apps featured and what they’re for:

DISCOGS: an app for cataloguing your vinyl or cd collection and creating a wantlist of ones you want to add to it!

i use this to keep track of what vinyls i have and what i want! it’s especially helpful when i’m in a record store and don’t have time to carefully look through each stack, because i can just pull up my wantlist and look for the items on it! you can also buy records on here from other users and keep track of your own collection and how much value it has!

LOCKER: an app that works as a digital wishlist, allowing you to save products from any online web store to collections that you create and curate.

i’ve been using this app to save everything i want on amazon, colourpop, musician’s merch sites, and more! i’ve made super niche collections for things like earrings, bedroom decor, electronic devices, and more and they help me so much! this is also useful for getting yourself a little treat as you can see what products are available to you on all the online shopping platforms in one place!

STORYGRAPH: keeps track of books you’re reading, have read, and want to read.

i switched over from goodreads because i hate how non-user-friendly goodreads is and i wanted some new reading recommendations! making the switch was easy because i was able to import all of my goodreads data, and i’m so glad i did! i love the statistics on here because you can see what you like to read. it also has you fill out a detailed survey, which allows it to give you better recommendations! there’s also a content warning filter where you can flag triggering topics that you don’t want to read about, which has been very useful for me as someone who avoids books on SA and EDs specifically due to my history with both. this has been a lifesaver and also allows me to prepare for what i’m about to read :)

LAST.FM: keeps track of all the music you listen to, sorting it into stats each month and showing you recommendations based on what you like.

i downloaded this and created an account in 2020 and it has been tracking my listening ever since! the one downside is that it only tracks after you create your account, so even though i’ve had spotify since 2016, i only have stats for 2020 and beyond. other than that, it’s been great! and i love looking at what i listened to in specific periods of my life by sorting the stats by dates. i also love seeing how i compare to years prior and what new artists i’ve discovered since.

COUNTDOWN: an app that creates countdowns to upcoming events.

this one is pretty self-explanatory, but i really wanted an app that could create widgets for the countdowns so that i could have them on my lockscreen, and this was well worth the $3 i paid for the premium version to unlock unlimited countdowns and widgets. i’m a concert photographer and have adhd, so it’s great to show me what shows i have coming up and when. it’s also nice to see the countdown of how long my partner and i have been together, which is on my lockscreen :)
